Emacz Posted yesterday at 01:27 Report Share Posted yesterday at 01:27 So trying to get siege towers to be a little more historically accurate. While yes they were garrisoned with troops to fire down at the enemy below they were also mostly used to breach the walls of castles and foritications so the troops inside could fight. I have reduced arrow range of siege towers, but I tried to give them capture attack and also Alexander's aura but neither really seem to have an effect on ccs or any buidling for that matter. Is there something I am missing here? Are Siege Class unable to capture? I don't see anywhere in the siege template that would make that the case... but maybe its somewhere else? IS there a way to make them more of a support unit for capturing ccs/forts than a shoot and retreat style siege? Any help would be greatly appreciated as always! And feel free to check out the new historical patch! https://github.com/Emacz2/Historical-rebalance-patch https://github.com/Emacz2/Historical-rebalance-patch/releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking away Building AI seems pretty easy Although will they no longer add arrows for garrisoned soliders? that's where that info is. Unit attacking, im trying to find an example but i havent yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real_tabasco_sauce Posted yesterday at 14:55 Report Share Posted yesterday at 14:55 @wowgetoffyourcellphone means the regular unit attack. And yes, getting rid of buildingAI would remove the arrows per garrisoned soldier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, as @real_tabasco_sauce says, removing the BuildingAI component from the template allows you to use capture attack, but also makes the tower attack like a single unit. A suggestion would be to give units a garrison aura that decreases repeat time for siege towers. This could be a nice simple workaround. Similar to the battering ram garrison aura.

Lion.Kanzen Posted yesterday at 17:27 Report Share Posted yesterday at 17:27 Later on, ships will have to have that capture component and be like a building with multiple arrows at the same time. Although the capture element will be different from that of land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
