Give Feedback
This mod originated from the 'Named Items Overhaul', itself inspired by my old 'Revised Named Items'. Players requested that the parts related to champions and named items be separated. 'New Champions' covers the former and will not affect named items unless you also install the other mod. Champions are a feature of the 'Warriors of the North' DLC which makes it a requirement for this mod.
NEW CHAMPIONS
The mod adds a variety of champion types selected among the strongest available enemies (excluding Beasts). All with new names and titles! The list now includes:
⠀⋄ Assassins (requires the 'Blazing Deserts' DLC)
⠀⋄ Bounty Hunters
⠀⋄ Goblin Overseer (requires the 'Named Man Splitter and Spiked Impaler' tweak)
⠀⋄ Mercenaries
⠀⋄ Necrosavants
⠀⋄ Sergeants
⠀⋄ Zweihanders
Chances, as well as equipment and special abilities have all been reworked (see tables below).
The main design philosophy was to more closely match normal and named equipment type and tier. Some items were also reserved for specific enemies of southern origin or from noble armies, for example. I'm open to suggestions if you don't agree with the choices!
CHANCES
Spawning chances now reflect the unit rarity and all champions have a chance to carry more than one named item.
