@Ivan Grozny all projectiles are reduced so the levy have a reload time of 10, normal a reload of 5, and elite a reload of 2. Might need further tweaking but there shouldn't be a huge discrepency between longbow reload and any other bow. Have to remember how effective the longbow was. After the English adopted them their armies were usually 4/5th longbow archers with the rest infantry and cavalry due to just how effective they were

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

Are long bows supposed to have 800 rate of fire

Well this variant I specifically reduced the accuracy which should mean they should be less precise. Unless I'm misunderstanding your suggestion? I think there's a dispersion statistic tied to the bows I could try tweaking but haven't played around with it before, not sure if it means dispersion of the while volley or if it means it disperses the damage of the projectile (like area damage on flaming catapults etc)

mabye this could be balanced if you could also make the archers aim a bit more imprecise

There's limited capability in modding AI behaviours so there's not much I can do about it. They should just use them how they did before so yes they will likely blot out the sun for the first minute or so then have no arrows :P If I can find some way to edit their behaviour with archers I'll be sure to add that in

What about the AI though ? do they get a massive advantage with this mod?
I want to try it out, I'd utilize it in a realistic manner, but I'm pretty sure the AI will "blot out the sun" with their arrows, lol

Hi, as I said, this variant as it is, is perfect, little more ammo, less accuracy to compensate, works really well.

But I am just so tired of seeing javelinmen standing there holding their javelins in the air for at least 4 secoonds before throwing them

Thanks for the feedback, I'll make some tweaks to skirmishers when I get a chance.
I definitely get not everyone liking the change to archers, in fact I'd love for them to fire even faster to be a little closer to real life. I'll think about decreasing their fire rate if enough people think it's too over the top

Hi buddy, really liking this mod, but if I could just add my thoughts:

Archers personally firing a bit too quickly, not that it is my biggest issue, but I just feel as though it has gone from one extreme to another.

More importantly, I really like what you have done with skirmishers (javelinmen) however I find they still fire FAR too slowly. I mean, all they're doing is throwing a spear, grabbing the next and then throwing again. They should be firing as quickly as archers.

Not that I am being critical, I just came to the workshop in the hope to find a mod that fixes skirmishers. And this is my best bet. Would you kindly up the fire rate of the skirmishers on this variant please? XD

I mean a mod with super increased ammo and the same as Faster Archer Volleys - no more idling between shots effects but only for welsh nations (it would be awesome since welsh are all about their archers)
Owlcoholic  [author] 9 May, 2018 @ 8:25am 
You mean another variation with increased fire rates and reduced accuracy for everyone except longbows? I can if you like, though you may be better off just using the other version of htis mod that doesn't touch accuracy
Remember No Russian 9 May, 2018 @ 8:24am 
Can you make a mod for the welsh archers please with no bad accuarcy ?

This is gonna be Very interesting with the Welsh Longbows :)
