Since Dark Omen only has 1 Unit Of Dwarves, your Army will all look the Same,






Here are some initial Repaints of Dwarves, that I may eventually alter their Axe Weapons

to a Rune Sword or Hammer (Weapon +1) etc..

Or one of the Dwarves could be used as a Replacement for Bernhardt, in a Dwarf Campaign.

Smiley




These Pictures Show the Original Blue Dwarves but also some Dwarfs
Wearing the new Armour of The Beard inspired by Shadow Of The Horned Rat




and Their New Leader who is Bare Skinned

(Future Gotrek with Orange Hair and Tattoos!).

Notice their Armoured Dwarves' Shields are Different as well.





In This Picture I've swapped around the Units, so that The Armoured Dwarf is the Leader of a Bare Skin Troop.











Now this  Unit of Dwarves have a "Warder's Cloak from the Wheel Of Time" as their Clothes take on the Scenary,




like Active Cammo!

(A mistake by using the Background Colour of RDose as the Colour of their Clothes but good become Very Usefull in Future)

So How do we Get these into the Game?

Luckily there are 12 Empty Spaces to Insert New Units into DarkOmen.

(Thanks Ghabry)


List of unused Spritefiles: (can be pasted in the <sprite>-section of the wh32edit-database.xml for easier setting in the editor ^^)
Peasant 1-3 are not unused sprites (but have forgotten them Cheesy).
You can use the Spritefiles by naming them ST_ImpSwordsman.spr e.g. (and set to this sprite in Wh(3)2Edit).

      <item value="59">Peasant 1</item>
      <item value="5a">Peasant 2</item>
      <item value="5e">Peasant 3</item>
      <item value="19">ST_ImpSwordsman</item>
      <item value="22">ST_ReiksKnight</item>
      <item value="27">ST_BrokenWagon</item>
      <item value="29">ST_ZZNewPlyr3</item>
      <item value="2a">ST_ZZNewPlyr4</item>
      <item value="2b">ST_ZZNewPlyr5</item>
      <item value="2c">ST_ZZNewPlyr6</item>
      <item value="3b">ST_ZZNewGreen1</item>
      <item value="3c">ST_ZZNewGreen2</item>
      <item value="3d">ST_ZZNewGreen3</item>
      <item value="3e">ST_ZZNewGreen4</item>
      <item value="3f">ST_ZZNewGreen5</item>
      <item value="40">ST_ZZNewGreen6</item>
      <item value="45">ST_Vampiress</item>
      <item value="53">ST_ZZNewUndead3</item>
      <item value="54">ST_ZZNewUndead4</item>
      <item value="55">ST_ZZNewUndead5</item>
      <item value="56">ST_ZZNewUndead6</item>
      <item value="5b">ST_ZZNewOther3</item>
      <item value="5c">ST_ZZNewOther4</item>
      <item value="5d">ST_ZZNewOther5</item>
      <item value="5f">XST_LastSprite</item>




These means that we could incorporate these Preliminary Dwarf Sprites as some of the 12 Slots.


and Replace them as we get Better! And it Saves us having to overwrite any Existing Original Sprites.

They are all done and Ready(maybe a Few Sword Touch-Ups) for Myself and Ghabry to Add as New Units.

So Dwarf Hammers Next!




Inspired From Shadow Of The Horned Rat Units.

Don't forget that we can only change Sprites and Banners (never tested) without overwriting anything of Dark Omens original files.
Changing the Book Description (and Unit Names) needs EngRel.exe-modifying. The Pictures in the book (except Banners) only by overwriting original files. About the 3D Head: Unsure.

I agree and we could always overwrite an Un-Used Single Player Campaign Character like

Peasant Rabble or Black Avengers, as a Temporary Measure, until we want/if to add them to Multiplayer.

So for the Heads and Portraits and Speech we could replace with Modified Dwarves , perhaps.

All of this would require a Future Patch or at least the Download would contain a few Orginal Files to return

the Game to Normal.

However, we aren't ready for Such things , just yet as we would Roll loads of Mods Together into 1 Ultimate Patch.


So for now, we can attempt to import the New Dwarf Sprites and their Banners.
