Vanguard Units and Heroes Mod - OUTDATED!

Description
Due to the infamous upload error download the new version of the mod here.

A dirty edit to add in new Vanguard units including: Vanguard Officer, Sniper, Machinegunner, and Special Forces. VERY WIP!

Community of Heroes
I've begun to implement new custom heroes for you to pick from in-game. The default game only has a dozen units per faction and runs out quickly; this should fix that.

Want to be a hero in the game? Let me know and I'll add them in!

Models
Do you have Blender or Maya and got some free time? Know of any free and open source assets? Just want to help?

I want to have a huge variety of models for these (and future) units. Making the units is getting easy but modeling is hard. Hit me up if you are interested in helping.

Known Bugs
Vanguard Machinegunner attack SFX doesn't work.
Vanguard Snipers pistol attack shoots an invisible pistol.
Special Forces unit probably sucks right now and attacks are buggy as well. (seeing a pattern here)

Special Thanks
Thank you Paradox for writing up some guides on how to get started with modding as the development tools are kinda intimidating.

Looking for some more units?
Check out MystHawk's Unit Mod featuring more units including Dvar and Assembly units!

I would love having the Valkyrie as a playable unit

@James009 that would be awesome

Yeah, I am considering adding int the Valkyrie as a recruitable unit.

Regarding the Officer, I've tried to change the ID. Lets see if that helps.

Also, guys, the mod is now located at: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1835927596

This is due to a Paradox workshop issue we're unable to resolve. Be sure to check out the updated version!

Wondering if the valkyrie model can be used to create an assault troop, its an ability that spawns the unit, but its not normally recruitable...so the assets are all there.

Hi, good job. I have observed that I only get 3 units to recruit: Special Forces, Sniper, Machinegunner.
The "Vanguard Officer" unit does not see her in the recruit zone.
Since its id matches the id of the unit "VanguardCommandoMod" if the two mods are active, only the "Commands" unit comes out.
a greeting

also i think the scientist unit and businessman unit isn't the best idea

you got plans for the other races right?

I'm going to enjoy creating a Spec ops team of vanguard troopers like this is War Hammer 40K.

Thanks for hanging in there pal.

So, small problem here, I've managed to figure out texturing by my editor isn't able to load ANY dependencies for some reason. I'm kinda stuck until this is figured out as it limits anything more advanced I can do.

The good news is, I have some recolored textures ready for when I manage to fix this!

If anyone knows a solution, let me know, please.
