Female "Dark" Dark Elves
While praising Dark Elves like any normal Total War Warhammer 2 player, I realized that the "Dark Elves" in Warhammer weren’t actually, uh, Dark. So with 20 minutes of tutorials and 5+ hours of pounding my head into .pack files, I have made something beautiful!
Lore or Something: The Elven southern colonies before the Sundering were once loyal to the Asur. There days were peaceful besides a rare Lizardmen conflict here and there, and trade with the Homeland was great. However once the Sundering began, the Asur called upon the men of the colonies to fight the Druchii menace to the North, leaving there southern homes. Already the colonies were unhappy, as there trade had dried up due to the conflict, and the Lizardmen were now more hostile, sensing the Asur’s weakness. All it took was for a lone female Dreadlord after the Druchii’s quick escape from Ulthuan to ignite the flame that would break the southern colonies from the clutch of the Phoenix King. Although this Dreadlord still listened to the Commands of the Witch King, she was left to enact her total will upon the colonies. Society was reorganized into a Matriarchy, with women now taking the key role in leadership and war. Overtime these female Warriors fought multiple wars against the Skaven, Lizardmen, and Dwarves alike, becoming hardy fighters that the Witch King delighted. These deadly warriors became known as the Alvara.
Two new cav units have just been added and a Halberd Unit! More elite/skirmishing late game units are in production. Here I have the current roster listed:
Alvara Swordwomen: Tougher than Bleakswords, they have better stats and frenzy
Alvara Spearwomen: Stronger then Dreadspears, they also have better stats, frenzy, and charge defense against all
Alvara Archers: Slightly better than High Elf Archers, and visually cooler
Alvara Archers (Light Armor): Slightly better than High Elf Archers with Light Armor, and visually cooler
Midnight Hosts: RoR, don’t know if this unit works really, but they look cool and have flaming attacks
Alvara Coast Regiment: A hybrid bow and spear unit, able to defend itself
Alvara Coast Regiment (Shields): Same as before, but with a shield
Scorn Valkyries: Cav with much better stats than Dark Riders
Scorn Valkyries (Shields): Same as above but with a Shield
Crimson Guard Battalion: Higher model count and some stat improvments from Black Guards
Balance wise, uh, I’ll need your guys to help me with that! I am no pro at this game or modding it, so any stat changes that are needed please tell me! I am all ears! Also if you wanna see a unit with different visuals, shoot me the idea and I’ll see what I can do.

All recoloring, reoptimizing, and prop edits go to me, hooray
Please enjoy!
