Enthralling Daemonettes

Description
Adds Charmed, Enthralled, and Beguiled Contact Abilities to Daemonettes!
This mod applies the basic "Charmed" ability to Daemonettes, a more powerful "Enthralled" ability to Exalted Daemonettes, and a devastating "Beguiled" ability to the Bringers of Beguilement (RoR) to nudge Daemonettes back toward their lore's roots. I understand this is overpowered.

Lore:
In the lore, Daemonettes can entrance their opponents with a near irresistible lust to be slaughtered. This was most notable when Daemonettes were deployed at the Battle of Praag (Gotrek & Felix: Beastslayer) where Felix and his Kislevite allies were enthralled by Daemonettes, lowered their guard & weapons, and eagerly anticipated the opportunity of a pleasurable death at their claws.

In WH3, this innate ability to enthrall mortals was only reflected in the Exalted Daemonettes' "Charmed" ability, but this ability only reduces melee attack and doesn't reflect how it turns hardened soldiers into lamb for the slaughter. This ability should also apply to basic Daemonettes, but in vanilla, they don't have any contact ability.

Details:
  • Daemonettes of Slaanesh gain the "Charmed!" melee contact ability, which applies -8 Melee Attack to an enemy unit upon melee contact, for 10 seconds.
  • Daemonettes of Slaanesh AP weapon damage reduced by 4 to offset this added ability.
  • Exalted Daemonettes of Slaanesh gain the "Enthralled!" melee contact ability, which applies -8 Melee Attack and -4 Melee Defense to an enemy unit upon melee contact, for 10 seconds. Previously this was only "Charmed!"
  • Exalted Daemonettes of Slaanesh base weapon damage reduced by 2 to offset their improved "Enthralled!" ability.
  • Bringers of Beguilement (RoR) gain the "Beguiled!" melee contact ability, which applies "Rampage," -4 Melee Attack, and -4 Melee Defense upon contact, for 10 seconds.
  • Bringers of Beguilement weapon damage reduced by 2 to offset this improved contact ability (vanilla only had Rampage!).
  • These abilities do stack so having all 3 types of Daemonettes synergize with each other.
  • Compatible with the visual/cosmetic Daemonette mods. This mod does not change their appearance at all.
  • Save game compatible.

Tips are appreciated!

Accidentally turned off notifications for this mod, so I haven't seen your comments until today.

That said, it's been updated and the contact abilities have been fixed. Thanks for working out a solution in my absence!

Here's a fixed version of this mod for those interested!

@Mirakulas Thanks a lot for your help. I've also been trying to figure out RPFM to fix mods when modders haven't updated so I really appreciate your guide.

For those who would like to add the effects back in, the below will allow you to do so until the author has time to make the update themselves:

If you open this mod in RPFM you are able to make the following changes in the melee_weapons_tables db to add these effects back in.
---
Column: Contact Phase

Line 1: wh2_dlc11_unit_contact_charmed

Line 2: wh2_dlc11_unit_contact_enthralled

Line 3: wh2_dlc11_unit_contact_beguiled
---

I tested this in game and all works as expected again!

I hope this isn't bad form, I've only recently started playing around with RPFM. Just trying to help in the interim.

Can confirm @hexagoros comments.

Base Daemonettes = No adjustment

Exalted = Charmed

RoR = Euphoric

I don't know about the inner workings but I confirmed this on the unit cards,

Love this mod! Thank you for making it!

Update pls

Just checked in the mod files, and I think in updating you made a mistake in the melee_weapons_tables.

sla_daemonette_claws does 'not' have a contact effect, while exalted_claws only has the charm effect, and exalted_claws_ror has euphoria.


I'm pretty sure these are vanilla effects, and not the effect advertised in the pics.

It doesn't seem to do take effect.
