Dogs of War Faction (ALPHA)

Description
This mod adds a new lore-friendly faction that is currently only playable in Custom Battles: the Dogs of War! The units included in this mod are mostly based on an unofficial army book for WHFB found here[warhammerarmiesproject.blogspot.co.uk], as well as older official publications. Please note that this is a very early alpha build, meaning that the Dogs of War are currently not balanced against all vanilla factions (including those added though official DLC) along with various other oddities!

TO DO:
- Rebalance units and custom abilities to be more consistent with vanilla.
- Make all of the faction's Lords and Heroes into, well, functionally proper Lords and Heroes.
- Make the faction playable in the Campaign, with fully functional skill trees for all Lords and Heroes, etc.
- Figure out how to make Lucrezzia Belladonna's Stunning Beauty ability only affect human units.
- Add in new unit cards for most units that are included in the mod.
- Add missing 2D porthole portraits for characters.
- Retexture various unit models, especially the Legendary Lords to make them look more like their TT counterparts, remove any Empire/Bretonnian-specific details, etc.
- New voiceovers, maybe? This is a very low priority for now, though.
- Add in Regiments of Renown as a standalone mod, with a patch that will combine the two. The main faction will have to be made playable in Campaign first, though.

BUGS:
- The 3D portraits for all mounted characters seem to be very wonky for now.
- All audio may occasionally stop playing when starting a battle with the Dogs of War.

You should put them north of, Barak Varr, and east of the Border Princes. ;)

Hey. Could you make the electors of the empire as the legendary Lords?

So I notice your mercenary cap is essential the same as the empire cap, but 333 gold cheaper. U need to make a choice here. still loving the idea though.
