Norscan Longship

Description
Introduction

This is my attempt to add a fun and unique unit to Norsca. The longship is a support unit, manned with angry Norscans that throw javelins and axes. It lacks melee attacks but has Chaos magic protecting it. The boat is engulfed in Chaos magic that helps it drift just above land as if it was on the water. The magic wisps under the hull, lashing out at any who dare get close and attack it. Any who gaze upon the Chaos icon atop the mast are either strengthened or for those unbelievers, they are turned into ravenous Chaos Spawn.

I have used it as a support unit and it is designed as such. I based it on the Thunderbarge, but it doesn't fly. Keep it behind your lines and in close range to units to maximize its buffing abilities. I have it set up for the ai to recruit it, although I have only seen them use it seldom, perhaps they aren't sure how to use it? It is a fun thematic unit but definitely not a battle changing war machine.

Thanks

Thanks to GreenPhoenix for helping me with the porthole...again (Seriously invaluable, if he wouldn't have helped me with portholes there are so many mods I'd probably never have released.)
Thanks to the guys at the Skeleton Crew for giving me ideas and feedback
Thanks to Matthew for the awesome pics


Known Issues

The porthole is a little zoomed out, but atleast it shows the correct model.

I mean, you joke about ship skins for all the Legendary Lords, but someone's doing it...for the campaign map :CirnoMofumofu:

What a humble, uncomplex request that truly is...
I guess maybe as the bare minimum, your Lordship would expect all the assets from TW games that actually had sea fights included, like Rome 2 and others, included? Anything else you can think of that "must" be included? Maybe an exclusive ship skin for every LL would be a starting point? I think that's only 100 so should be a piece of cake.

Give me half an hour... <3

someone must make a mod that, when a battle-at-sea begins, automatically transforms all units in the army in the appropriate ship model and then battle it out at sea.

Of course, benefits from ranged units and war machine buffs

Does it benefit from any skills or tech?
