Unique Steam Tanks III SFO
So here we are again with another submod for SFO!
This time it’s the long awaited update to Chaosrobies and Zombieflanders Unique Steam Tanks mod.
MOD FEATURES
Seven (eight?) new Imperial Steam Tanks (all limited to one per campaign or custom battle army):
ALTER KAMERAD
Alter Kamerad ("Old Fellow" or "Old Friend" in Reikspiel) resembles your basic Steam Tank, with one exception. In place of the cannon, a Helblaster Volley Gun has been installed, giving the tank a quicker-firing weapon useful against foes both on the ground and in the air.
DELIVERANCE
The pride of Nuln’s engineering facilities, Deliverance has undergone a wide variety of modifications, including the addition of a fearsome Flame Cannon. The strength of the tank and the bravery have earned it the coveted medal known as the Imperial Cross, an honor bestowed only upon the Emperor’s favored warriors.
IMPLACABLE
Implacable trades the closed design and both the steam cannon and turret for a powerful mortar. This makes it a potent mobile artillery platform, able to engage in open battle as well as siegeing cities.
INVINCIBLE
The Steam Tank most faithful to Leonardo do Miragliano’s original design, Invincible has never been fitted with a steam turret. It still boasts one of the most powerful steam cannons, making it useful in taking out powerful lords, heroes, and monsters.
SIGMAR’S HAMMER
As the name would suggest, Sigmar’s Hammer is designed to mercilessly pound enemies using an enhanced version of the Steam Tank’s already-powerful battering ram. To give it the power to do this, the cannon and steam gun have both been removed, allowing the engine’s steam to increase the tank’s speed.
VON ZEPPEL’S
Von Zeppel’s configuration has no hull-mounted armaments, and instead carries a platform, cramped with engineers carrying experimental weapons like grenade launchers, repeaters, halberds, and mancatchers.
KATHLEEN
Another, very odd tank was reconfigured by the Halflings of Mootland, who named it Soup Tank "Kathleen" and utilized it against the forces of Marius Leitdorf, the Elector Count of Averland during an infamous rebellion. The tank has been returned to Nuln and it’s soup cannon removed. See OvN for the real Soup Tank!
THE EMPEROR’S WRATH
The Emperor’s Wrath now joins the ranks of the other unique tanks! The "regular" Steam Tank replaces it as Wissenland’s Elector Count State Troop.
Steam Tank mounts, available at level 20, for:
BORIS TODBRINGER
Boris’s Steam Tank has a blue color scheme.
VOLKMAR THE GRIM
Inspired by some concept art I once saw, Volkmar can get a War Altar Tank, complete with balcony, griffon statue, and orange color scheme! Yes it’s a bit silly.
GENERALS OF THE EMPIRE
Generals of the Empire can get "regular" Steam Tanks as mounts.
The Skaven also get a little love with the Rat Tank (still limited to one per campaign or custom battle army):
RAT TANK
The Rat Tank began life as the Imperial Steam Tank Sigismund, which was lost in a swamp near Marienburg. It was recovered by the Skaven, led by the Chief Warlock Engineer of Clan Skyre, and now thrums with the twisted power of warpstone. It boasts a full-powered Warp Lightning Cannon as the main weapon, and a smaller Doomwheel-style cannon mounted on the turret.
Brand-new custom "Pour on the Steam!" ability for Imperial Steam Tanks, granting temporary enhancements to speed and firepower, at the cost of reduced accuracy and longer reload time.
Unique unit cards and descriptions for each tank.
NOTES:
All of the Imperial Steam Tank units require you to own the settlement of Nuln, the industrial center of the Empire, to better reflect the origin of the Steam Tanks in lore. In addition, you must have built both an Engineer’s Workshop (Level 2 Forge) and the Nuln Gunnery School unique building before you can recruit them.
The "regular" Steam Tank is now Wissenland’s Elector Count State Troop. The Emperor’s Wrath is recruited from Nuln along with the other unique tanks.
For Wulfhart, in the Vortex Campaign, the unique Steam Tanks are instead Regiments of Renown, available past level 30. "Regular" Steam Tanks are available only through the imperial supplies system.
Thanks to ChaosRobie and Zombieflanders for the excellent mod!
