Beorg Bearstruck and the Bearmen of Urslo - Regiment of Renown

THIS MOD IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE LATEST PATCH AND IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED! I am now discouraged from further updating this mod due to the new update having to change so much of the structure of some of the tables that this mod uses. It's not that I can't do it, It's just that the updating process is so tedious and annoying that I'd much rather work on new mods that I know will work for the latest patch. However, I will give full permission for anyone to update this mod for the new patch, provided that I am fully credited and added as a Contributor. In addition, a link to the original mod should also be added to that mod's page.

This mod adds a new Regiment of Renown based on the Bearmen of Urslo, a classic Regiment of Renown that appears in earlier editions of WHFB. They even have their own unique officer! They are playable for the Warriors of Chaos, Empire, Vampire Counts, Dwarfs and Greenskins (including all playable subfactions) in Custom Battle. They can also be recruited in the campaign by those factions using a stopgap measure to ensure mod compatability. More details can be found in the included screenshots.

REQUIREMENTS:
This mod requires the Chaos Warriors and The Grim & The Grave DLC. No other DLC is required.

TO DO:
- Give Beorg Bearstruck a better texture at some point in the future.
- Somehow add the Amber Wizard's head to the unit's variant mesh to help reinforce the bear theme even further. May also need help with this.
- Add Oerl the Young to the unit once banner bearers are made possible.
- Make the Bearmen recruitable to other factions in the Campaign.

BUGS:
- The Bearmen of Urslo cannot be recruited through the Regiments of Renown tab in the campaign. This is not really a bug as per se, but making them recruitable this way involves editing the startpos.esf file which means that compatability with any mod that uses a modified version of that file will be broken. As there is no straightforward way of fixing this, I have implemented a stopgap measure by making them recruitable as a regular unit with a unit cap of 1. This is not a permanent fix, and once CA implements a more reliable method for recruitment through the Regiments of Renown tab then the Bearmen will be made recruitable through that instead. For now, this is the best that I could do until then.
