Thx for the update

can you add a version that just does the artillery and machines? I want to use the arty from this mod with the new diethland troops

I wonder if there are any reskins of this mod out there that would go well with Master Confounders High Gothic Empire Reskin that would truly make the empire just as grand as Cathay.

so could you add that ironsides gain bonuses from state-issued weapons and improved heavy weapons cause its a bit ridiculous that elite imperial infantry fights worse and deals less dmg in melee than hakbutschutzen and their only advantage is more iron on them?

Ironsides and Habutschutzen should get the same buffs, but there could be some missing. I have stat lines on these units that deviates greatly from base game units and kind of arbitrarily cut some bonus connections just so the units don't too terribly overpower everything in the late game. I tried to leave every unit with a shortcoming.

Is it supposed to be like this that Hakbutschutzen receive bonuses from infantry technology, but Ironsides and Eisenbombers dont? Or maybe they do receive bonus but it just doesnt show up? I'm talking about tech state issued weapons and improved heavy weapons

Snek is a chad confirmed

Hey no problem at all. Also, that's awesome, congrats!

I would like to get these up to date for sure but just found I have children 5 and 6 on the way at the same time. It's mostly my boys playing on this account these days.

cool mod either way.

I'll take that as a no lol

Sounds like they're still pushing updates that break animations. I'll take a look at some point. I will probably get everything in my collection patched when this game is finally near the end of it's update lifespan.

has anyone else had trouble with the hakbutschutzen and erzatzsolder's animations since the last update?

You know what would be awesome? Amethyst versions of all the highest tier units in this mod. I know it'd be a lot of work, but still though I'd suggest it

Also did you nerf the spikes??? basic swordsman units seem to be running straight through them, forcing the ranged unit into melee.

Light guns do not fire

Hey snek, big fan of your mods especially this one, somewhat recently a mod dropped for Bretonnia finally giving them a technological upgrade somewhere on par with the empire called "Industrial Bretonnia Units". With it, the mod maker dropped a super cool reskin for Bretonnia called the "High Gothic Bretonnia Reskin" which looks amazing. With both of those he also made an empire reskin called "High Gothic Empire Reskin" which looks pretty amazing the mod is here - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3405782371&searchtext=high+gothic - what I am wondering is whether or not you, or anyone for that matter, would be willing to make a reskin patch mod for the units in this mod that matched the high gothic reskin mod? These units fit the current empire theme beautifully, but I feel like his mod better captures what the Empire would look like if it wasn't intentionally flamboyant when it comes to cosmetics just for fantasy's sake.

are ersatzsolders supposed to not have visible bullet trails?

The game crashes on the desktop if you play the Realm of Chaos campaign with this mod. Can this be fixed?

Do you really need the dlc for this to work, since I've used it in the past without it and it was fine but now it just crashes

can you possibly create a separate mod just for the empire aircraft?

holy smokes (it is stinky unbalanced 😲)

It appears that the SFO Compatibility patch is outdated. @Snek Could you please take a look at it, if you are avaiable?

Ironside Guard is not receiving melee infantry tech buff

@Snek Only a humble suggestion. 10 ammunition for Ironside Guard is a bit too low.

does this work with millennium?

Low unit ammunition levels is intentional. The units with decent melee stats are made to force you to use them in melee most battles. They should be supplemented with mod or vanilla units with higher ammo counts.

Could you please add more ammunition for units

luftjaeger would be great as a separate mod

this mod is saying its outdated but its clearly not, played this mod before the update and its a great mod ty

Thx for update i really enjoy your mod.

Thank you so much for the update, Snek! This mod has quickly become one of my go-to's for multiple campaigns now. You do fantastic work, and I hope this comment finds you well.

look forward to getting my guns back, take your time and as always thanks for the awesome mod

please update

Needs an update after this last patch. Game crashed before getting to the main menu. I turned off this mod, it works now.

Does this need an update for today's patch?

@Augimund check out Snek's other mods, one of them adds 18th century muskets to the normal handgunners which buffs their melee ability. I also don't know if you encountered this issue but for some reason this mod disables the reload animation mod for vannila units so using the bayonet mod which also replaces the muskets fixes it.

Are the vanilla hand gunners not meant to be used with this mod? They feel significantly weaker than even the lower tier gun troops because so many of them have suppression and can fire while moving.

Awesome mod.

Is there a compat patch for Dynamic Regiments Of Renown for this?

@Donut_Warrior I appreciate it!

@ccynq I double checked my tables here and I don't think I'm overwriting missiles for those units? Are you using this with any of my submods? I could check those as well.

@DocHolliday No need to apologize. I know it's an odd creative decision. The 3rd edition has these mangled German (in lore, Reikspiel) names for every unit. I get why they pivoted to more straightforward names, I've just come to love the vibes of early WHFB, with garbled German words, puffy sleeves, and big foppish hats.

Huh interesting, I don't know much about older lore for Warhammer so my apologies. I was specifically speaking in regards to the other imperial units in this game but that makes sense.

On the unit names. The names "Hakbutschutzen" and "Ersatzsolder" are taken directly from the Warhammer 3rd edition Empire army book names (for Handgunners and Militia Spearmen, respectively ) and were done intentionally in that book as mangled German. I think as an English counter culture way to annoy Continentals, and as purposeful teasing of the fantasy genre taking different people's real cultures and myths, mangling the understand of them, then reducing them to just the cool parts.

This mod started with WH2 with my desire to transpose that Warhammer pastiche of medieval Tolkienesque fantasy to Napoleonic warfare, while retaining or amplifying WHFB's absurdity. This whole roster is silly, fun (I hope), and experimental, so I feel even those most grounded of units need to retain something absurd about them.

Easily on of the best modders in my opinion

it seems to be with this mod some troops, like free company, do 200 damage a shot; or outriders 400, how do i fix this

I agree with Eypeltower the German names don't really fit with any other imperial units, Ironically I have always called the Hakbutschutzen rifle infantry like he suggested and the Ersatzsolder militia infantry which is close enough to reserve infantry. This mod is amazing regardless and obviously this is just an opinion and it's your mod so do whatever you want.

First of all thank zou for this amazing modI can't seem to recruit Hellhammer cannons, i've built all the buildings that increase cap and are required for recruiting them, i have Nuln, but the cap for hellhammer cannons (and hochland long rifles) stays at 0/0, any idea why? i'm running tyrannus's uber collection, but everything works from this mod except this

anyone got problem with units wont shooting?

does this mod work with Brutal Battles 3?
