Aspiring Champions of Slaanesh
This mod adds a new unit to the Slaaneshi and Warriors of Chaos rosters; Aspiring Champions of Slaanesh. Similar to how they function in the Warriors of Chaos roster, this unit serves as a support presence for your frontline. They provide leadership via their encourage ability, debuff the enemy with their charmed attacks, and remain as a armored core should your other infantry break. They have the mark of Slaanesh, so receive the benefits of; Strider, Immune to Psychology, and 5% Physical resistance by default.
Recruitable to Slaanesh factions at Tier 4. For Warriors of Chaos Undivided factions and Azazel, Undivided Aspiring Champions can be marked to turn into them, or Rank 8 Chosen of Slaanesh can be upgraded into them.
Affected by relevant Red Skill trees and technologies.
Available to Warriors of Chaos in custom battle as a marked variant of Aspiring Champions.
