Description:

*Please consult the Known Issues and QA sections before commenting, thanks.*

This mod adds the following units for all of the major Greenskin factions, respectively:
-Black Guard (Swords & Shields)
-Black Guard (Spears & Shields)
-Black Guard (Dual Weapons)
-Black Guard (Great Weapons)
-Black Guard (Bows)

They are all available through the Greenskins’ main Barracks building chain.
They are a slightly stronger version of Black Orcs with officers and darker colours.

Ok, presentation over: let’s dive into the technical stuff!

*BALANCE*

They are stronger if compared to vanilla Black Orcs but all in all, they should still be vanilla friendly.
NOTICE: The units’ stats screenshot was taken with the unit size setting set to large, so expect more HP and unit models if you are playing on Ultra.

*COMPATIBILITY*

As far as I know this mod works with pretty much everything that do not mess too much with vanilla units.
I’m playing the game with 100+ different mods and everything is working fine!
The mod is NOT save compatible.
If you want the Black Guard in your campaign you’ll have to start a new one.

*KNOWN ISSUES*
-Minor clipping

*UPDATES POLICY*

Let me be straight with you…when the mod status change from updated to outdated….if you start to spam in the comment section things like "update pls, OMG UPDATE, can we have an update my good sir?, UpDaTe!1!1!1" and similar stuff….know that https://media.giphy.com/media/e3URFlLQywEPC/giphy.gif

…But jokes aside: please don’t do that.
When it becomes necessary, and when I can, I will update my stuff, do not worry.

*QA*
-"They don’t have anything in common with the Dark Elves Black Guard right?"
Of course not.
It’s just a case of Homonymy.
-"SFO?"
As a matter of fact I’m officially retired from SFO/Overhaul related mods.
As always: If you already have previous experience in SFO submodding feel free to make an SFO version out of any of my mod who currently lacks one, I will link your submods if you provide me with a link.

And that’s all I guess!
Credits time!

Thanks to Phazer for RME editor!
Thanks to H3ro and his great tool!
Any of this would not have been possible without Frodo45127’s RPFM which is still updated to this very day, thank you!
I would also like to thank Sebidee and Caligula for their great modding guides!
And I would like to thank you!
Whatever you liked my mod or not thanks a bunch for giving it a try!

Let’s be brutally honest now: there are countless modders that are WAY more talented than me and that would deserve your money more than me.
That said, If you have grown to like my works so much to the point that you want to express your appreciation or just put a smile on my face…well: I will not stop you 😉 .
You have my gratitude for all the support you can throw at me, independently by the donation’s sum: you are all equals to me and I do thank you all.
From my part I can assure you that your donations will not be wasted, in fact I would mainly use them to:
-complete the Total War Warhammer DLC collection and thus expand my modding possibilities
-PC related things
