Description:

From the Shadows Unit Pack

New custom units to help bolster Eshin’s roster while trying to remain lore friendly and appropriately themed for Clan Eshin. Strike fear from the shadows with powerful new tools.

New units that have been added:

Assassin Adepts

  • Higher tier death runners equipped with a small stock of death globes to shatter enemy formations before striking.
  • Experts in hit and run strategies.
  • Potent harassers.
  • Requires Arsenal

Gutter Runner Bombardiers

  • Gutter runners equipped with poison wind globes requisitioned from Clan Skryre armories.
  • Great for sustained harassment of enemy units
  • Requires Weapons Burrow

Blackclaws

  • A trio of deadly assassins equipped with claws and throwing stars coated in the deadliest poisons from Clan Pestilens.
  • Anti-infantry unit capable of holding their own in a fight
  • Requires Plague Abbey

Sword Saint of Eshin

  • A new single entity regiment of renown. An unmatched sword master capable of tearing through the front lines of filthy no-furs.
  • Deadly warp lighting strikes around this unit in the heat of battle
  • Extremely fast attacker
  • Unlocked at Rank 30

Black Furs (Dual Swords)

  • Elite Anti-infantry unit
  • Heavily armored front line unit
  • Causes fear
  • Armor Piercing Toxins

Black Furs (Halberd)

  • Elite Anti-large unit
  • Heavily armored front line unit
  • Causes fear
  • Charge defender
  • Armor Piercing Toxins

Shadow Ogres

  • Stealth based monstrous infantry
  • Designed for flanking
  • Causes terror
  • Anti-infantry
  • Armor Piercing Toxins

All units have unique kitbashed/custom models and retextures to help them stand out from other eshin units (except Blackclaws they use the master assassin models). This is my first ever Warhammer 2 mod so it’s likely not balanced at all.

Recruitment Patch

As requested I have made a small patch to allow all major clans to recruit the new FTS units. Install alongside the unit pack.

My Other Mods

FTS – VFX
FTS – Snikch Retexture
FTS – Tz’arkan Trait for Mortal Empires
FTS – Contracts Overhaul

Compatibility

I have made sure not to edit any existing tables or units with the mod so it should be compatible with most things.

Credits

Thanks to everyone in the modding discord that helped me create this pack. Wouldn’t have been possible without their support. Huge thanks to Phazer for their help getting the shadow ogre custom mesh in game and everyone who provided feedback throughout.

Massive thanks to all the community tool developers as well.
