is it compatible with Radious?

To be honest archers in this game are weak because armor is OP in this game, and archer unit size is small, yet they take as much food as an infantry unit that doubles them in number.

毕竟一般人不会对他国历史有深入探究的想法

I know another mod double the size of archers,is this mod compatible with that?

我看得懂你们的语言，但是你们看不懂我的

没有中国人玩吗？？？？

One of the best mods. I wish this mod was also available for other Total War titles. This mod increases the value of the skirmishers in the battles immensely.

just double thier ammo supply

Do you have this mod for other games like Attila?

I love it. I feel like how quickly ranged units burn through ammo is a good trade-off for how powerful they are. I like how I have to be very picky and strategic with my archers, rather than letting them be mostly static dps sticks. If you're not careful, those OP archers will be useless in no time.

@harry yeah, though I do think sieging should be difficult personally. It would be good to balance it further somehow. Unfortunately I never got the mod tools working again and have moved onto modding Paradox games for now

good mod for field battles but it makes sieging alot harder!

Is this updated yet?

The modding tools don't work for me since the last update sorry, if I get them working I'll update it

pls update it

Hey I apreaciate your work very much!Would you consider making a mod where the shoothing angle is reworked so that it is more realistic?

Thanks for the info @Questing Kiwi. I actually haven't had the game installed for quite a while but if I ever get back into it I'll be sure to update the mod with your suggestions to see how it goes

Like the idea of this mod however to keep the stamina and accuracy against moving targets
I would suggest halving damage, and doubling fire rate and ammunition
The reasoning of it being "tiring" I don't agree with, I do a archery and im way less trained than a longbow archer bakc then but the hardest part about shooting ive found no matter how fast or often i draw a bow is accuracy, never actually pulling it, swinging a sword is much harder haha

Good suggestion, I'm not sure if it affects ranged accuracy or damage to be honest

What about an decrease in stamina for a trade off (going from fresh to exhausted quicker), or does that not reduce performance of ranged units? just saying pulling back a longbow over and over could be quite tiring.

thank you!

Updated for the Allegiance patch and further reduced 'reload' time for javelins

ok thx you

Don't have access to my home computer ATM but I'll update when I can

Update Please

I really have the same problem with a lot of animations in total war. Idleing in the battlefield makes no sense. I wish they balanced things in other ways.

Thank you for this mod :)

can you make something like that for javelins ? I hate seeing them idling with javs.

thank you

I used PFM. Check TWCenter, Dresden, Magnar and myself (Rewinged on the forums) decoded all the edited and new tables and made a schema file. Just gotta drop it in your PFM folder and it should work fine. You won't be able to select ToB yet as a game, just use ATW or whatever, still works fine.

what did you use to make this mod? ive always used pfm but its not updated atleast not that i can find

I've been away a few days so haven't had time to play or check out other mods sorry

Why not try combine this with the reload mod?

I'd given up on archers mostly, but with this they can have their job back.

This actually makes archers feel a little more impactful than before. I have been playing exclusively on VH and I felt like archers never made a difference. I like it

I try to add this to my game last evening but it was a fail : it showed like outdated and I was unable to make it work even with the right case enabling outdated mod.

Can you add a mod that boosts ammo only for the player?

really cool mod :)

Thank you for the mod! I was getting OCD with their idling >={

Lowered accuracy variant is up here:

Also gave a tiny bit more ammo to ranged units (2 for archers, 1 for javs)

Tweaked all the other missile units such as crossbows and javs. They will all fire faster now (not to the extent of the change to archers but still quite considerable)

AbatedFawn, not too sure, think it's just for one of the subcultures. Should be able to mod them in, though I have heard from Radious that some unit modding requires the Assembly Kit now. I'll give it a shot later once I've done a couple other things. I'm just hopign the Assembly Kit will come soon... like within the next couple days haha. Most my mod ideas require it.

Possible to have crossbows for all clans? Or is that already a thing? I can't find any as Mierce

Okay, so crossbow needs to be sped up somewhat too? Haven't actually used them in-game yet so wasn't sure what to do for them. The number I'm tweaking is literally just the time between playing the loading animation that they will fire, so if crossbows already have a long reload animation I might be able to just get rid of the time like I did for elite archers

yep sure. crossbow and javelin need also some tweaks. Crossbow should have 50 to 60% the archers rating fire (closer to reality). don't know yet about javelins

Thanks

I'd have to install it again, but sure I'll a little later on.

I'm wondering if you would be able to do this exact mod, but for shogun 2?

Thanks for answering for me AbatedFawn, it is indeed compatible.

grekko, thanks and I'm glad someone agrees. I'll do as you suggest and make a couple of variants. I don't have a lot of time to play the game so I can only do limited testing so it would be a huge help to get some outside feedback

I do aggree with you. Total war shooters are too slow. I like the shooting rate of this mod. Archers were used to "burst" ennemies before melee fight (history of France vs England). In some french books we have records of english archers shooting every 2-3 seconds to highly damage the ennemi charge.

I do believe that CA should bring this new mechanic in the game (manual shooting rate) in order to make archers & co a much strategic tool and let the player decide which one use. removing a few accuracy points for this should be a good deal.

Can you please make more mods with all combinations ? this way we can see what like.

Thanks mate and long live modding
