Norscan Unit Pack
From the farthest north, where the chaos wastes gnaw at the world, come mighty Champions of the Norscan peoples, riding fearsome Manticores into the fray. These Manticore Reavers are feared even by their own allies, and with good reason.
From the great frozen steppes of the east, where the tribes of Hung and Kurgan bring the will of the Dark Gods down onto the men of Cathay and Ind, come the Marauder Horse Archers. Though the Norscans may scoff at using bows, especially whilst mounted, the Aghol and Mung have no such qualms, and are willing to let their warriors ride into battle alongside the Sarl and the Aesling.
The jungles of Lustria are a dangerous place, filled with vile and vicious creatures. Most men shy from the savage jungles and pitch-black caves, but the Norscans are no ordinary men. Indeed, many brave souls venture out from Losteriksson’s Hall to bring back an egg of a fearsome Cold One. Some even return, and proceed to tame the beast in the usual Norscan way – normally hitting it over the head with an axe haft until it gets the message.
Throgg, the Troll King, has seen the armoured beasts used by the Everchosen, and decided he’d give his select trollish warriors the same protection. Norscan Frost Trolls (Armoured) are here!
——————————–
Finally, Cold One Marauders are here!
Unfortunately, since they use Chaos Knight animations instead of a Cold One-based animation (trust me, you don’t want to see what happened when I gave them the Dread Knight anim), they’re a bit glitchy. They slide back and forth on their saddles, they lag and jump back and forth when the Cold Ones run, and they only seem to do their attack animation with any regularity when moving. Bit more a showpiece unit I’m afraid, but keep them moving back and forth and they’ll do a good amount of damage.
You need to build Losteriksson’s Hall before you can build them.
Thanks to Cataph for sorting out a problem I should have seen earlier
Marauder Horse Archers use the animations for smaller, scrawnier human beings, so they look a bit dodgy when they fire their arrows. Don’t go too close. I might see if I can make a smaller model for them.
Manticore Reavers are an update of Greywulf’s Champion Manticore Riders
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1124877009
I’ve updated them slightly so they’re balanced against my own Chaos Manticore Knights, but they’re still the lovable flesh-tearing, terror-causing skypupper riders they always were. Except they now come in fours.
As always, open for balancing suggestions. Thanks to Sebidee for his unit modding template and walkthrough, and to Greywulf for permission to update.
