TWM: Nuln Experimental Cannon

This mod adds a new unit for the Empire:

Nuln Experimental Cannon Battery.

The Idea of this Unit originates in one thought: How can the Empire possess the ability to build cannons for 500 years, but never make any significant progress? This new type of cannon is smaller, faster to reload and can choose from 3 different kinds of ammunition. Due to the experimental nature of the weapon system, it will be more expensive and available only in limited numbers. To build it you need the city of Nuln and the Nuln Gunnery School.


*BALANCE*

All of the Units Stats are the same as the Empire Great Cannons, except for its ranged attack. As mentioned before there are 3 different modes of firing you can choose from depending on the situation:

-Solid Shot: Just that, a ball of iron. Due to the smaller caliber its damage is a little bit lower than the great cannons, but in exchange it has about a 25% faster firing rate.

-Explosive Shot: A hollowed shell filled with explosives. Deals about half as much direct damage from the hit as the solid shot, but explodes with the force of a mortar shell. The explosion radius is a little bit smaller because there is not as much explosive mass.

-Hailshot: A bag of musket balls in place of a cannon ball. The damage is comparable to a salvo from a battalion of handgunners, but it has a high spread and is only dangerous on short range. Comes with a temporal debuff to the leadership of hit units.

*COMPATIBILITY*

This mod shouldn't conflict with anything, except with mods which make the required building unavailable.

*FAQ*
Will you make a SFO / Radious / etc. version ?
The stats of the unit are based on vanilla TWW2, but feel free to upload your own version.

Can I use your asset/mod in my own project ?
Feel free to use whatever you want (model, textures, etc...) for your own projects/mods.

This isn't conform with the lore !!!
1. We don't care.
2. You don't need to use this mod.
3. You don't suppose the Imperial College of Engineers can do more in over 5 centuries than strapping their guns on a wooden carriage?
