Zaskar70’s Knights of Morr Updated
*Notice*
There Is nothing wrong with screenshots: the white dots in some of them are snowflakes from Mazisky’s Ultimate Lighting + Random Weather mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2037195655 really nice mod, I recommend It!
P.S. While I do know that the Knights of Morr were mainly deployed against Vampire Counts, since the original mod had already Empire Vs VC screenshots I thought that a classical Empire Vs Greenskins was nice for a change, hope you don’t mind! 😛
P.P.S. If you are planning to use this mod along Xoudad’s Sigmar’s Heirs you might want to use this submod instead

This an updated version of Zaskar70’s Knights of Morr mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1181702197
Sadly, I didn’t get an official permission for this one since Zaskar70 Is not active on the Warhammer 2 workshop (nor the Rome 2 workshop) since 2017, so I do think that It’s pretty much safe to assume that He’s not interested in modding anymore.
Nevertheless I still asked for permission and I’m still gonna credit him for all of his work, because Is the right thing to do and because I have manners.
*UPDATE*
As of today 03/04/2021 Zaskar70 briefly returned to the original mod page to explain his prolonged absence from the modding scene and to give his official blessing to this updated version!
Now let’s talk about the mod.
From the original description:
"I made two unit’s of this Order, a Halberdier unit and a sword and shield cavalry unit. Lore says they can use great weapons on horse but since Empire was lacking any proper melee cavalry I decided to give the cavalry swords and shields instead.
Some history / lore on the Knights of Morr:
Encased within black armour and deathly silent when on the battlefield, the Knights of Morr are the dark guardians of the Empire. When parents wish to get their children to sleep at night, they tell them that the Knights of Morr will come for them unless they rest. The Knights of Morr are widely feared for their devotion to the god of the dead, and dark tales abound regarding their initiation rites. Even so, their martial prowess is more than welcome to those they fight alongside, for their silent efficiency is among the best in the Empire.
Whilst the cult of Morr has few, if any, official templars, they do have the Black Guard. These universally dour and serious warriors have an even more serious responsibility: to guard both the living and the dead from the endless malice of the Undead and those who would raise them. For the most part, they are a defensive order, protecting the great temples and graveyards of the Empire and the dignitaries of the cult, only riding to war in exceptional circumstances, such as during a crusade against the Vampire Counts."
*This mod Is completely unchanged. I did only take It and ported It to the latest game version*
That said, the original stat description Is outdated since It doesn’t match the stats that I did find in the mod’s files.

*COMPATIBILITY*
As far as I know this mod works with pretty much everything.
The mod is NOT save compatible.
If you want these Knights in your campaign you’ll have to start a new one.
This mod has a visual bug problem with the Knights of Morr warhorse models if you are using It along with Xoudad’s Sigmar’s Heirs mod, to fix that use this submod instead https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2445196186
*KNOWN ISSUES*
-none, for now.
And that’s all I guess!
Credits time!
