In this mod I have tried to enhance units special traits, making the battle flow more dependant on tactical advantages, and probably resulting in slightly faster battle pace.
With this mod…
• Reckless cavalry frontal charges will stop sending spearmen flying. Charges from the rear will give them even more painful experience though.
• Firearms will stop being crossbows with better armor piercing. They will sweep away enemy squads with one volley. It will take much longer time to reload though. They will require line of sight to fire.
• That one crippled dwarf on the edge of the map, lone survivor of his squad, will not regain his will to fight if their leader is long dead.
• Anti-large units will hit cavalry and large beasts harder. They will go easier on infantry though. Anti-infantry units will be more anti-infantry too.
• Melee attack and defence ratio will have a little more influence on hit chance.
• On siege battles it will take more time to climb walls using miracle-spawn ladders, so you will want to use some siege vehicles. Fort towers will hit harder, but will not reach that far.
That mod was created to change the things I have found confusing, hopefully it can be usefull for someone else too.
Total War: WARHAMMER
With very large unit sizes line of sight requirement can be problematic even with Long Line mod (units do not shoot through each other’s heads), because of that here is the version without line of sight requirement[www.dropbox.com].
