Description

Smellementals mod v1.0 for Shadow of Kerensky

Elementals don't have ER Medium Lasers, so I removed them. Their Small Lasers also aren't Extended Range, so I replaced them with standard Small Lasers. I also moved the firing position of the Small Laser to the barrel of the gun instead of the missile tubes. All other features are unchanged.

This mod will greatly reduce the threat posed by Elementals. It is essentially a cheat, but I frankly did not find the implementation of Elementals to be fun or interesting to engage with. If you are looking for an enhanced challenge, you will not find it here. If you are tired of your AI comrades activating entire stars of Elementals with stray fire and being cut to pieces because they don't understand how to use fire groups or prioritize threats, this mod is for you.

@Wither they can survive up to a single 10 point damage on the tabletop. Their main damage came from them ripping into the armor with their claws, not from the weapons they had. They WERE tough, but they didn't have the amount of weapons the videogame gives them

I see people complaining about how tanky they are...yeah, that's the point, the damn things were so crazy that the inner sphere mech pilots thought they were fighting Alien invaders. thank god the mod author fixed the weapons though lol.

I really don't like being mobbed by FIFTY of them at once either.

Hi, now i'm not deep in with lore of tabletop of whatever but i find the elementals in vanilla a frigging cheat, this things i think should be people in a suit of armor are tougher than tanks and it's ilarious already and equip insane weapons especially energy weapons and don't have a frigging 10 standard or double heatsinks to use it. So buddy, thanks.

the fact elementals had to be buffed to the point of carrying PROTOMECH weaponry shows they needed to either develop an ability to latch on and do damage or should have been left out
