Mercenaries of Khuresh
Hey there Warhammer 3 enthusiasts! We are very proud to announce a preview mod from the Khuresh Project team. This mod adds a unique unusual location that grants certain factions up to 4 new units through occasional dilemmas, with existing locations of this type upgrading over time.
Throughout your campaign your settlements may be approached by strange figures bearing interesting dilemmas for you. If you choose to accept their terms, the settlement will host this unusual location and grant you some mercenary units. Each location will eventually upgrade and notify you when a significant milestone has been reached.
The mod is designed to go "wide" first, seeding the world with these locations, before they’re likely to upgrade. This allows the content to ramp up over the course of a full campaign. If you ever tire of the dilemmas, they can be disabled using MCT so that the locations will be accepted automatically. Not every region is valid for this location, however approximately 50% of the Immortal Empires campaign map is valid, to give you an idea of how prevalent the location is.
By default the location is only available to the supported cultures listed below. These cultures have unique lore interactions via dilemmas. An MCT option is included to allow other cultures access to this location, but they do not have any loreful dilemmas, instead the location will appear silently.

Q: Do I have to run the Audio Dev Pack?
A: For the moment yes if you want unique audio for the Spitting Naja.
Q: Do I need the Audio Mixer too?
A: NO YOU SHOULD ONLY HAVE ONE OR THE OTHER. For the time being, please run the Audio Dev pack by itself in your load order while using this mod.
Q: SFO, Radious, Translation submods when?
A: When someone makes them. We will likely not publish a submod ourselves. If someone does post one please let us know and we’ll link it in our description so people can find it.
Q: Why is my dilemma missing an option it normally has?
A: The previous settlement owner already accepted the Unusual Location, so you can only decide to accept it or remove it.
Q: Can this be added to an ongoing campaign?
A: You should be able to, but I wouldn’t remove it from an ongoing campaign, or your game may crash.
Q: What about the Beastmen?
A: Unfortunately it was decided that the Beastmen culture wouldn’t be tolerant to these strangers in their sacred Herdstone sites.
Q: Is this multiplayer compatible?
A: It was designed to be multiplayer compatible, but we haven’t tested that yet.
Q: Will you be adding more units to the this mod?
A: As we tackle more and more units of the roster, we plan on updating the mod with the ones that might fit the description and role of mercenaries in the context of this mechanic, so whenever we finalise a unit that fits here, it will get added through an update.
Q: Can the AI recruit these new units?
A: Yes. AI factions may choose to accept this Unusual Location and may also recruit these units.
