Sappers/Builders unit
If its not too late in development or even possible could you add a unit that could dig a trench or build sandbags for defensive positions, somthing that could provide a small counter to artillery especially with how accurate the enemy can be with it and a new dynamic to how battles work. It also provides extra tech, perhaps starting out with small sandbags and trenchs with nothing else then eventually evolving to trenches with covered positions for troops to take cover in maybe even barb wire. This would also make cav way more important , having them stall then enemy so your troops can build defenses , them failing means your troops are extremely vulnerable and open to attack. This also makes battle much more dependent on strategy not on if luck is on your side when it comes to their art being accurate and yours actually being able to hit something besides dirt. I love this mod and would love to see it improved especially in this department.

I also feel like machine guns def should be in the game at least artillery machine gun pieces.

this isnt world war 1, why in the world would there be barbed wire and machine guns in a time it didnt exist

@Blue_Diarrhea which most def was apart of the time period , It was used in teh american civil war, american-spanish war. last time I checked those happened before 1900

i meant to say gatiling gun
Vedr17 12 Aug, 2021 @ 5:09pm 
Infact the gatiling gun wasn't used after 1905 it seems, so yeah. Also barbed wire was invented on october 27, 1873

So tell me again why shouldn't these be apart of the game , especially if the game has a time oriented tech system that extends a lil past 1900 if i remember correctly @Blue_Diarrhea

Even I think besides the gat gun the first effective machine gun was made in 1884 , and lmg 1904 , so I think these should be apart of the game locked behind tech.

I get what your saying , but i think barbed wire can be implemented as a sort of hard to pass terreain like how walk slowly up hills and provided a small dmg for each sec of movement through the wire. So this makes the player or ai make the choice of going through and being slowed and exposed in enemy fire or to avoid the wire sacrificing a good postion

Considering this mod is based from 1860 to 1895 its possible as the first machinegun (the maxim) was invented in 1884 and barbed wire was invented in 1873

Wouldn't matter anyway its possible they could add a MG due to when the Maxim was invented
