Description:

Goal:

Observers are the scout units for the Reaver culture, and they’re kind of crap.
They cost the same recruit cost and upkeep as any other scout, but lack any form of damage output and are tagged as non-essential meaning they’ll die instantly if attacked while scouting.

By instantly die, I mean there is no option to flee, because as soon as you enter combat the non-essential tag will cause them to die. A scout without the ability to flee with its intel is a pretty useless scout in my opinion.

This mod aims to make them a little more appealing by removing their non-essential tag, allowing them to flee combat without insta-dying.
It also adds a 60% blind chance to their Marking ability so they are a little more challenging when spawning in enemy stacks.

Compatibility:
This mod adds a Blinded – Extra Effect (60) to the Marking – Ability, and removes the Non-Essential Requisite from Observers.
These changes are made in the Upgrades_Cultures_UnitProperties_EmpiresAndAshes.rpk and Units_Culture_Empires_And_Ashes.rpk respectively.

As such this mod will only affect the Observer unit itself and any units that use the Observer Marking – Ability, which will be any mod that also overhauls the Observer.

Empires & Ashes DLC is required.
This mod is compatible with all base game Languages.
