Radious Slaves to Darkness Submod Released 17.08.2020!

Hello Everyone, Team Radious here!

Today, we have an important announcement to make regarding the future of two submods from our collection – Radious Hordes Reborn and Radious Norsca Overhaul. Following a long period of discussion, we have decided to merge the two into a bigger entity called Radious Slaves to Darkness Submod! The submod will retain all functionality from both and will come packaged with a new unit upgrade system, based on the Greenskin Scrap mechanic, to sweeten the transition! 

The decision has been made for four principal reasons: 

1. The plurality of our mod users enjoyed their campaigns with both active at the same time,

2. It made sense thematically, as all three factions are oriented around Chaos and the gods of the warp,

3. To ease the organizational side of things a bit and make creation of future features which play on that connection easier,

4. The new unit upgrade system is far more stable when the mods are merged, since Norsca and Warriors of Chaos share certain elements of their roster

For the new Submod to work correctly, it is necessary to de-activate the old Norscan Overhaul as it is now obsolete and will cause issues when used alongside Slaves to Darkness. It will eventually be removed from the workshop, but for now will remain there to avoid confusion which a sudden removal would cause. The current versions of both the Norscan Overhaul and Hordes Reborn will be available under this link for the foreseeable future: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Agh-xpyNoM0ZuFpu8yx5zUHwxZ0k?e=yKEDzQ 

Importantly, existing saves will become red as a result of this change, but they can still be loaded and should work without any issues. If any occur, please feel free to use the manual download version to finish that campaign.

As always, feel free to provide us with any feedback you might have and to report any issues. We hope that you are going to have fun with this new old new submod and that it will enrich your Warhmmer II experience!
