Dwarf Thunderbarge MKII
This mod adds in a different style of Thunderbarge for the Dwarfs.
Thunderbarge MKIIs are giant, flying, ranged, single-entity units. They’re pretty strong, so they are limited by a unit cap. They are recruited from the tier-5 engineering building. The same building upgrades their unit cap by one.
Thunderbarge MKIIs can shoot while moving, with a 270 degree arc of fire. The unit also has three special abilities with quite a bit of firepower: Bombs, Broadside (Right), and Broadside (Left). Also first person aiming/shooting is enabled, try it out!
The Thunderbarge MKII benefits from Dwarf skills and technologies, tooltips have been updated.
Also included is a Regiment of Renown "Wrath of Thunder".
If you have MCT enabled, you can get a legendary hero version of Malakai Makaisson. This Malakai is very different from (and pre-dates) the vanilla version. Malakai MKII is unlocked after a small quest where you retrieve him from his boring teaching job in Nuln. The quest should trigger immediately and is available for Dwarfs, Empire, Bretonnia, Kislev, and Cathay.

Thunderbarges are Games Workshop IPs and are described in Warhammer Rulebook: 8th Edition, among other places. This particular style comes from Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning.
Due to a vanilla bug, Malakai spawning is buggy (don’t stop your lord on the very very edge of the Nuln region!)
If he doesn’t spawn properly (or at all) after completing the mission, disband him, save your game, load your game, and he should be spawned again.
