Unit Rarity – Core, Special, Rare
This mod provides:
– A new layer of strategic choice when designing your armies and cities.
– A continued need and use for all unit types.
– A framework that causes the AI to produce more logical, loreful armies.
This mod adds capacity limits for elite or exotic units based on the classification system of table-top Warhammer: Core, Special, Rare. If you know the army books, you should be able to guess which units are limited and how severely. With these restraints, players will need to choose where to deploy and use their faction’s elite and specialized units, providing a more realistic and immersive experience as a commander. The AI will have to follow these same rules, and as a side effect you will encounter more balanced and varied enemy armies (no more all-doomdiver or all-chariot armies).
Capacity limits are increased by the corresponding recruitment buildings, so any faction that wishes to specialize in a certain unit simply needs to build the logical infrastructure to support their capacity.
-Core units are unlimited, just as they are in the base game.
-Special units are given a capacity of 2-3 per recruitment building with upgrades generally adding +1 or +2.
-Rare units are given a capacity or 1-2 per recruitment building with upgrades generally not adding capacity.
