The Duke’s Damned Nations
The Duke’s Damned Nations is a complete overhaul mod that changes many many aspects of the game, from a complete battle rework, to campaign redesign, ai tweaks, multiplayer game mode changes, new models and units, altered vfx, projectile trails, you name it, everything is within the purview of the mod. In TWW2 it was known as The End Times, but has undergone many changes and has a new name and shiny icon.
Longer, bloodier battles, harsher campaigns, hundreds of new units and a whole new balancing approach as well as a custom faction, Skeggi, with a focus on Realism in Fantasy.
While many will see this as a contradiction, this is the key approach of The Duke’s Damned Nations – treat the world as if it were real, and make it play accordingly. Accepting that all the magic, monsters and mayhem of the world is real, how do they act? How do you face the endless tide of the undead, the mighty power of the greenskins or the relentless rage of the daemonic hordes? The mod gives my interpretation of a realistic take on the world, focusing on solid gameplay influenced by realism to keep it intuitive and informed by the lore, which is, as always, interpreted. Tabletop is entirely ignored in my approach, except its connection to the lore.

For questions and feedback, i have an active discord https://discord.gg/7c965zF2ZX where you can discuss, ask questions and play multiplayer games.
Please check the discussions for a full list of thanks, but I’ll take this opportunity to thank Billzelbubz, B0ki, Decastra, Dietrich, Penguin King and Valas for their work on the conversion from wh2 and continued modding support. Without them, the work to convert the mod would have been too great and there would be no Damned Nations. I’d also like to thank Aida Valuna for suggesting I approach long time players for aid, as without her suggestion, the wheels wouldnt have started turning.
