Neferata's Ambition (beta)

Description
Introduction
Hii everyone, finally I made it here.. this mod is the spiritual successor to Kaylica's Lahmians【Neferata's Ambitions】.
This mod lets you play as the Lahmian Sisterhood led by Neferata herself. Further in the description you will find a detailed list of what to expect when you'll play this.

Credits and Special Thanks
First of all I owe some thanks and credits to all the people who let me use their assets or helped me out of the tremendous work it is to customize a unique faction. Sooo let's start with it:
  • Credits goes to JFred for his Isabella - Reborn from which I managed to create a unique look for Neferata.
  • Credits goes to Cipher who provided HUGE help, corrections, playtesting, company and so on, but most of all for his Corrupted Captain's model that is awesome.
  • Credits goes to Yogo Pogo and his A Lahmian Vampire Alternative. For allowing me to use his models for my custom Vampire Lords.
  • Credits goes to Ashen for allowing me to use his Beautiful Female Vampires assets.
  • Credits goes to Rhox for allowing me to take inspiration from his Vlad and the Empire mod and understand and create the seductive influence mechanic for this faction too.
  • Credit goes to zeta0080 for giving me the permission to use some of his files (not linking here because I'm unsure about the steam policies, but if you are 21+ search him... his mods are on the Nexus :3).
I also owe special thanks to Mortarch Of Blood for providing lots of material to work on, lots of information and ideas :3
Last but not least huge thanks and credits goes to
  • Creative assembly for supporting and enabling mod creations.
  • Da Modding Den, discord hub for learning how to mod Total War.
  • Frodo for RPFM.
  • Ole for Asset Editor.

Features
Neferata is now playable as lord of the Lahmian Sisterhood, starting from Silver Pinnacle.
  • Naaima is a unique hero now, she is Neferata's first courtigiane and one of the first generation vampire beaten directly by the Queen.
  • tree base units from the tomb kings are now readapted and playable side by side vampire counts units.
  • new Female Vampire Lord with lore of lahmia and tree unique battle skills.
  • new custom vampire hero, the Second Generation Vampires. These are the daughters of the first generation Vampires. They are more powerfull than normal vampires and can estabilish vampire covens in other factions settlements.
  • two new tier 3 units the Lahmian Handmaidens, one anti infantry and the other anti large.
  • new hero, the Corrupted Captain to support the mortal troops in battle.
  • new unique building in Silver Pinnacle Vampire themed.
  • two new building chains, one themed on the Tomb Kings units and the other one themed on the Corrupted Captain.
  • new tecnologies.
  • new pooled resource, the Lahmian Influence brought back from the previous Kaylica mod.
  • Sisterhood Secret Market brought back from Kaylica's mod. Now you can recruit more lore friendly imperial units.
  • new faction mechanic based on the diplomacy. Faction effects will be granted to the player based on the amount and the type of diplomatic relations they estabilish with other factions.
  • new faction mechanic Lahmian Seduction it is based on Slanesh seduction mechanic.
  • Ulrika Magdova is now recruitable by the Sisterhood following her missions that will happen when Neferata reaches lv11 as usual.
I believe this is all, I wish you a good game guys :3

Known Problems
  1. No buildings are available in covens built in chaos dwarf settlements.
  2. the "Seductive Lahmian Influence Resistance" effect doesn't seem to work at all, probably I mismatched something in the effects scopes, it isn't much of a problem, but well.. it may become since the only other thing that stops the player to dominate another factions is the number of settlements that that faction owns.

Compatibility
This mod should be compatible with any other MIXER'S mod, few exeptions are Legions of Nagash - Game 3 that does exactly what this mod does, so DON'T load them toghether for your game sake.
Other than this I hope there isn't any other serius compatibility iussue apart with mods that creates startposed factions that usually are incompatible with the MIXER.
I've tested this with a bunch of mods, and any of the ones that I'm using seem to work fine with this one. ANY hint on this will be reaaally appreciated.

Forgot to mention that my previous mod Neferata - Mortarch of Blood it is incompatible with this mod, since the model used, skills, effects, etc all share the same names.

Future Plans
I'm planning to add a lot more unique heroes alongside Naaima, the wiki contains lots of named SIsters from the first generation vampire that I could add. This is a big task, soo slowly i'll try to cover them all with a unique look for each (and possibly to improve the look for the already existing models).
Another thing I really wish to add is proper missions aside from Ulrika one, to let Neferata obtain her weapons, and other stuff.
I wish also to implement a system for the Corrupted Captain to choose at some point to become an "undead" or remain "pure".

heya, was wondering if there is a chance that you will make this compatible with radious? it works together but your custom characters dont have the radious skill tree stuff, and id love to be able to have that to make her stronger, also the tomb king units, should they not be free since they arent very good but have unit caps? loving the mod tho so far, its great

Just noticed the voice over for Neferata, it feels really nice and adds pleasant flair. Thank you, and well done, as always!

@Baligdur ahh Ulrika's mission's script breaks .. not sure why tho, mabye bc it is outdated, mabye bc of other mods that makes it break. Open the mod in rpfm and delete the script, will find it in scripts/campaign/wh3_main_combi/mod/
than save the mod and try again :3

also her foot goes through the cape

loved the mod. found a conflict, heirs of sigmar mod when active prevents neferata from spawning as faction leader. but when i play as other factions she is the leader of lahmian sisterhood. and it also messes up the Vampire lahmia hero model and unit card.
