damage reduction from "unyielding ancient "does not work. hp regen works.
hero damage reduction 50% does not work too

maybe updates has broke something i don't know
but it is useless in current state

Thank you so much, friend!
Lampros 16 Dec, 2024 @ 5:08pm 
Okay, it seems to still work. But could you consider making a "unique" version?
Lampros 21 Jun, 2024 @ 4:32pm 
Is this no longer maintained? ;(
Lampros 1 Jul, 2023 @ 7:39am 
Got it - and thanks for the prompt responses!

@Lampros Yup. Didnt know how to make custom techs at the time so every hero is recruited from their respective unit unlock (Dreadnought, Immortals, FlayedOnes, Lictors etc)

This will change thought, eventually.
Lampros 30 Jun, 2023 @ 3:27pm 
Eh, how do you recruit him? Research the generic Dreadnought tech?

Beautiful mod, thank you for this. Venerable Dreadnoughts are some of my favourite Imperium units!
