TWM: Nuln Experimental Howitzer

Description
This mod adds a new unit for the Empire:

Nuln Experimental Howitzer Battery.

The next new artillery piece from TWM. The Howitzer works like a combination of a mortar and a great cannon. As with the experimental cannon you 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 bigger than the mortars.

-Canister Shot: This Shell is filled with Shrapnel and a small amount of explosives. It will burst some meters above the ground and shower the target with a hail of lead. Useful against massed infantry formations, but pretty useless against larger enemies or lords

*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?

We are actually planning to update and port the mod ourself soon. But if you still want to do it until then, you can of course do so.

Hey, can I publicly port the mod to WH3? I will give credits of course.

Can you give it a perk like Dragon units to do something cute 2 or 3 times a battle>? Maybe give them another perk at x level or more use of its first perk. Just a thought I think would be a cool addition to a tier 5 unit

Agreed with bellow. Things need buff, when it comes about AP and explosive damage in all of fire modes to make it wothy of Tier 5.

NGL, feels like these underperform somewhat for a T5 region-locked artillery unit. Feels like they compare unfavorably to Hellstorms and Hellblasters.

@GlaDi
The production series of our artillery just got approved by the emperor.
Get the newest imperial artillery at your local engineers workshop right now and bring death to Sigmars foes.
For the Empire!

There is a kind of logic error in all of this.
"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?"

Then why experimental with limit of only 3? :D

Love your work lads. Hope for "No cap" submods and radious ones.

These are awesome, this and the cannon. Anybody up to do an SFO submod would be greatly appreciated. There are no further updates for SFO on TWII so there would be no need for further updates.
