Elven Phalanx V2 (unit formation)

Description
"On the field of battle the Spears regiments form Spear Walls. These walls of deadly spear tips that impales any brave enough to charge at it, are meant to hold lines and put up a steadfast defence for the High Elf Army."

Description

I always envisioned the High Elves and Dark Elves as an army of phalanx and missile units, supported by dragons and cavalry. So I created it.

I gave all elven spear units an unique abillity, they can form a phalanx, which give them +10 defense, +5 attack and +5 leadership. The formation also remove the charge bonus from the units chargin against the phalanx. Units can move while in phalanx, but not run.

Dark Elves dreadspears now have the same animation as the High Elves Spearmen, in order to make the phalanx animation work.

I recommend using my mod Longer Spears for High Elves and Longer Spears for Dark Elves to create a true imposing phalanx feel.

Units that can use it
  • Lothern Sea Guard (Shields)
  • Silverin Guard
  • Spearmen
  • Sentinels of Astaril
  • The Scions of Mathlann
  • Dreadspears
  • The Hellebronai (Dreadspears)

Compatibility

This mod should be compatible with everything, except mods that changes Dreadspears and Hellebronai stats or animation.

If i were to want WE spearmen added, would I just add them in the land_units_table and the land_unit_to_unit_abilities_junction_table or is it more complicated than that? Or has this already been done somewhere I'm missing?

@Realest Grandpa if you want both mods together, place my mod in top of Standard Bearers, and you will have working both mods. But the units from this mods will not have standards, but all the rest will have them

@Realest Grandpa must be an other mod incompatible with mine

i just did a test and can see that they use the bleaksword animation instead of spear also

my dark elf spears have returned to using the same animation as before, where their spears point downwards into the ground at an angle.

is it a mod causing conflict or has it been changed?
