Kingdoms of Ind 1.1 (beta) out now!

After 6 or so years, Ind has finally received a new update! This too ended up quite a bit bigger than I had planned, with a lot of new units, some removed units and some repurposed units. The army has received several new units based on Mughal India while shifting the names to better fit any period of Indian history. They have also had several old Deva units changed to beastmen which better fits the canon GW lore, and have also received several new monsters based on Hindu mythology. Hope you enjoy the update, and many thanks to my Patreons for their support!
