Description:
Description:

Gotten tired of the same old boring bolt throwers for the High Elves and Dark Elves? Ever wanted something more explosive and exciting in your Elven artillery? Look no further! This mod adds 2 new pieces of artillery at tier 4 and 5 for both the Asur and the Druchii, each with their own "character"!

The Goods:

Base unit: Eagle Claw Bolt Thrower
Projectile: Eagle Claw/Reaper Bolt Thrower Projectile with Warplock Jezzail RoR trail and Poison Wind Mortar RoR explosion.
Short description: Anti-infantry bulldozer. Launches 8 explosive projectiles designed to flatten infantry.
Strengths: Good against most infantry.
Weaknesses: No Building Damage, weak against single entities, especially small ones.

The Hysh Cannon:

The Druchii Corpse Thrower

Base unit: Grudge Thrower
Projectile: Vampire Counts max tier tower projectile, Plagueclaw Catapult Trail with Plagueclaw Catapult and Doomdiver Catapult explosion

Strengths: Good against infantry, adds damage over time and stat debuff effects on hit. Damage over time can be useful against single entities too.

Notes:

Please let me know how the balance feels. Too strong? Too weak? Too expensive? Too cheap? I’ve done my best to balance them, but I’m sure more rigorous playtesting from the regular players will reveal more. Please let me know in the comments what you think, and I will make adjustments.

Patches, Localization etc.
