Treeman Siege Boulders (Wood Elf Artillery) CA Mod Manager Version

Description
Gives Treemen a boulder to smash down walls like in LOTR, siege of Isengard!

This page is a REUPLOAD of original mod <link> as that didn't seem to work with CA's mod manager, only need 1, do not use both.

Normal treemen (NOT lords) and malicious treemen have a ranged boulder attack (stolen from beastman cygor unit) that decimates walls, but is inaccurate vs troops, and only 5 ammo.

It will take down a normal wall in 4 hits.
Balanced so that it's very inaccurate and relatively low damage versus troops (boulder dmg is exactly 30% of weapon strength). Range is 330, so u have to get within tower range, and a sloooow reload so you can't just take free pot shots.


Basically I wanted Treemen to be able to breach walls in sieges, but not really function as artillery.
As such I've not made any other stat adjustments like other GREAT MODS do, other than a minor further 8% weakness to fire (-25% becomes -33%) as a nod to balance.
This is in an effort to keep the mod as minimal and as compatible as possible. Same reason it is only for normal units, not lords.

Does effect Highelf Treemen and Drychas' varient.

oh man sick you are a machine. ok i'll see if I can give it a go tomorrow hopefully if time permits. ya that's kinda what i was thinking mainly in reference to the scene of an ent throwing a chunk of wall crushing a group of orcs in two towers, something along that line cause man are the gobos and skaven deserving of some rock crushing in my game right now 😂

Flattery Will get you everywhere :)

You can be more specific with a request if you like, as otherwise I'm just guessing what you want amonst the myriad of options I can tweak.
As it is you could test this version I made:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3452266161

It should in theory do (the little) you asked for : damage vs lightly armoured infantry, and be MUCH less effective vs other opponents. Feels weird to me but didn't have a lot to go on.
Gave 1 more ammo and accuracy increase (required vs troops compared to walls).
If you want to provide feedback on that mods page, I could look at creating an independently recruitable varient, but I'd want to get the damage profile where you want first, as the rest is quite a bit more work.

your a legend! about to try this out thankyou. on a side note would it be a challenge to add a variant that does decent damage to small lightly armoured infantry units? not trying to make a request/demand just in case it comes off that way. anyway thanks again im stoked to try this out
