Eshin: From The Shadows (Skaven) – 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.
Assassin Adepts
- Higher tier death runners equipped with a small stock of death globes to shatter enemy formations before striking.

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.

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.
As requested I have made a small patch to allow all major clans to recruit the new FTS units. Install alongside the unit pack.
FTS – VFX
FTS – Snikch Retexture
FTS – Tz’arkan Trait for Mortal Empires
FTS – Contracts Overhaul
I have made sure not to edit any existing tables or units with the mod so it should be compatible with most things.

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.
