Editing Dogs of War (section)

=Warhammer Army Project=
Naturally, the [[Warhammer Army Project]] has gotten fans of the Dogs of War together to try and bring them back, at least for 9th edition. THis version takes its cue from the 6e version, and doubles down on it, separating the [[Regiments of Renown]] off into their own army book and instead focusing on generic mercenary units/characters as well as Dogs of War-specific special characters. Like its 5e ancestor, though, it also pulls double duty as a Warhammers: [[Tilea]] book, whilst [[Estalia]] gets its own completely separate splatbook.

The biggest changeup from 6e is the increased focus on [[demihuman]] mercenaries; now you can take elf, ogre, orc and hobgoblin troops, and even take demihuman characters! Almost all your nonhuman mercs are Special or even Rare choices, but hey, at least it's not trying to compete for the Generic Human Army niche with the Empire anymore! ...Well, not as much, anyway. You can also take [[pegasus]] and [[griffon]] steeds, and your characters and even some of your units can take "Quirks of Character" that give them special buffs.
