Marks of the Wild - Unit Upgrades for the Beastmen

Adds a unit upgrade mechanic comparable to the greenskin scrap system to the beastmen factions. The upgrades cost dread and are very powerful since they need to compete with other very useful options that also cost dread. The upgrades are exclusive though so every unit can only have one of that. The marks itself are loosely themed around the 4 major dark gods.

I'd appreciate any sort of feedback, especially if units are missing or if other factions that use beastmen units are also showing these upgrades.

Q: Why won't the scrap upgrade window open when clicking on the unit cards?
A: Since 6.0 the old scrap upgrade UI got removed by CA. The new one can be opened by clicking on the button at the bottom of the army panel.

Q: Why doesn't the upgrade button in the army panel always show?
A: The script tries to add it every time you left-click select one of your armies. If it doesn't show right away try deselecting and reselecting the army until it does. This issue is rather rare in single player but quite common in multiplayer campaigns.

Q: Can you add suport for [insert unit mod] or [insert faction mod]?
A: The base mod will always exclusively support official CA units and factions and I won't create submods for faction or unit mods that I don't personally play with. But feel free to suggest it in the comments as other users of those mods might read it and decide to do so.

Q: Will you create more mods for different factions?
A: The only mod that I currently want to create sooner or later is a Dark Elf mod. I will consider a mod for chaos daemon and monogod factions afterwards.

Q: Is it safe to add/remove the mod mid campaign?
A: Generally speaking adding it mid campaign should be possible but certain features like unlocking upgrades through research could cause issues. I wouldn't recommend removing it from an existing campaign though, especially when units equipped with upgrades are present on the campaign map or if the mod adds a new pooled resource to factions.

Q: Update?
A: Tell me what stopped working in the current version of the game or which units are missing upgrades and I will try to fix it as soon as I find the time. Update requests without any information won't be answered.
