Description:

Allow most of the monstrous infantry and previously big entities that were incapable of climbing the wall the ability to … "climb" the walls. At least, they are on the walls and fighting normally, I won’t talk about the climbing part too much.

Feature: Affect both Player and AI

1) Change the ability to climb stairs in the battle_entities_tables for most of the creatures classed as monstrous infantry. Some are still incapable, because of 1 rule that I made. If their height is 4 or more, they are not allowed to climb walls. For reference, the Medusa of the Dark Elves is 4.1 and the Treekins are 4. On the other hand, Nakai is only 3.6 so he can climb walls now.

List of the units is :
– Ushabti (all types)
– Mourngul (all types, Hero)
– Animated Hulk
– Bloated Corpse
– Spites
– Ariel Queen of Athel Loren
– Orion
– Kroxigor (all types, Hero and Nakai)
– Troll (GS Troll, GS Troll Stone, Norsca Troll Ice)
– Fimir (all types, Hero)
– Skin Wolves (all types)
– Chaos Spawn
– Gorebull
– Minotaur (all types)
– Rat Ogre
– Crypt Horrors

In addition, those units are also granted that right. Why? Because I consider the spiders, small salamanders and promethean to be able to climb, unlike something like a wolf or a horse. As for the Grail Reliquae, it’s carried by just a few peasants. It’s not that heavy.

– Giant Spider (WEF without mount and also GS mounted units and Hero mounted)
– Salamander Hunting Pack (all types)
– Rotting promethean (all types, Mount)
– Grail Reliquae

Why is there no weapon teams of the Skaven or Vampire Coast? Well because a mod exist for them. Also, apparently there is a modification to be made on the walls, and I don’t know what are the consequences. So, no weapon team, on the other hand Ushabti and Promethean are working fine, probably because they are tall.

2) Do not give proper animations for that, meaning you will see some T-Pose. A lot of them. So, if you could just look away, that would be great. Also, no, I am not competent in animations and all that stuff, so if you create an animation for them, do it and publish it, it will be an excellent mod!

Compatibility :

This mod won’t affect anything else, is save compatible and overhaul compatible as long as the table is not modified. If that’s the case, that would only means the changes will be erased, meaning no more monsters on the walls

The order of this mod matters, the higher the best since it will replace the changes made by other mod, but for exemple:

1-Siege – Monstrous Infantry on Walls(This mod)
2-SFO/Lucky/Radious/ect
3-Other stuff you want
