Non Cavalry can't damaging to Bolt Shooter, Siege Catapult and similiar kind of heavy weapon

[hyuuks]

Hy, im new player (2 days).

When AI attack me with artillery, i send my infantries, it was kinda weird, my units only swing their weapon in the air, i was thinking bug.

Then i found that these type unit only get damage by Cavalry

(https://0ad.fandom.com/wiki/Bolt_Shooter and https://0ad.fandom.com/wiki/Siege_Catapult)

 

I knows the acts for swinging weapon into air is for take over building or artillery, but why its more hard to destroy the artillery, than artillery destroy buildings.

so, i make my account here to submit ideas:

Any units can damaging artilleries

or

Artillery is great as destroyer, but make it most vulnerable unit based on the type, for example siege catapult or bolt shooter, you can just kill the operator.

that information is old, it is very outdated. that's why I was telling to Stan about updating that information.

.They're capturing the siege engines.

use Ctrl on units to perform an attack.

 

What is the name of the Alpha you are playing with?

Sounds old to me. The latest update is A26.

your version is from 2 years ago A24 (may be older A23).

The current version is A26.

Here I read that the Linux repositories are never completely up to date.

When you capture the soldiers they shake their weapons, that is not in any RTS but in empire earth and it works differently.

It will install A26 yeah.

For siege units the best counter is swordsman, infantry or cavalry, afaik.
