Empire Master Engineers III

This mod adds Master Engineers, a new hero type, for all Empire factions.

This mod adds the following:

• Three weapon loadouts, each with their own skill lines, including brand-new skills:
  
  • Repeater Rifle: The main weapon used by the Outriders of the famed Pistolkorps, the Repeater Rifle is meant to throw as much lead at the enemy as possible. The skill line for the Repeater Rifle is meant to bolster gunpowder units by providing more ammunition, faster firing rates, and better ammunition replenishment.
    
  • Grenade Launcher: Used by the more daring (or maybe just plain crazy) members of the Pistolkorps, the Grenade Launcher is there to make the other side go BOOM. Thus the skill line for the Grenade Launcher adds two special grenade types for the Engineer and makes war machines more deadly.
    
  • Hochland Long Rifle: Famed for its accuracy amongst the hunters of the eponymous province, the Hochland Long Rifle is the weapon of choice for sharpshooters. Unlike the skill lines for the other two weapons, the focus is on improving the abilities of the Engineer himself, with longer range, greater accuracy, and a Sniper ability for taking out elite units or characters.
• New mounts: New mount choices, with some custom models.
  
  • Mechanical Steed: The Mechanical Steed is one of the most fascinating--and frightening--inventions to come out of the Imperial Engineers School. Given the level of tinkering needed to maintain battle readiness, it is the endcap of each of the weapon skill lines, and adds considerable cost to the upkeep of Engineers in the campaign while mounted. An optional Mechanical Steed effects submod adds a subtle lightning VFX to the mount's footsteps.
    
  • Von Zeppel Steam Tanks: Exactly the same as in the Unique Steam Tank III mod, but implemented as a mount for Master Engineers.
    
  • War Balloon: Shoot at your enemies from safety!
• New abilities: The Engineer has several abilities adapted from the tabletop rules or other characters in the game:
  
  • Extra Powder: Adds to the impact of projectiles fired by the buffed units (red skill) or the Engineer himself (yellow skill).
    
  • Master of Ballistics: An offensive buff that makes nearby artillery fire more accurately.
    
  • More Powder!: Allows the Engineer to replenish a unit's ammunition during battle.
    
  • Pigeon Bombs: A homing-missile attack. It's really not that effective. but it's kind of hilarious.
    
  • Stand Back, Sir!: A defensive buff that can take some of the heat off an Engineer targeted by enemy missile fire.
    
  • Repeater Pistol Shot: A short-ranged anti-lord/hero ability. I had to incorporate the new repeater pistol model somewhere.
• New Legendary Hero: Based of off Forge World's Tamurkhan: Throne of Chaos campaign, Jubal Falk is the Captain-Engineer of Nuln. There's a small mission to recruit him that shows when your faction leader is level 5, requiring you to move a unit to Wissenland. Might make that more complex in the future. He starts armed with a Hochland Long Rifle, and although it's his only ranged weapon, he has additional effects that make him and other gunpowder units even deadlier.
  
• Unique Imperial Engineering Landmarks in Altdorf and Nuln
  
• Individual unit upgrades for gunpowder units: Includes artillery, outriders, handgunners, and steam tanks. Upgrades range from more armour to more ammunition. Upgrades are purchasable using Imperial Authority (or Acclaim for Markus Wulfhart).

Might have mixu's unlocker be a requirement, and then change over the engineers to be actually engineer-typed agents/ That would fix the thing with engineers and captains sharing an agent cap.
Electric vfx for mechanical steed not working
Some weird thing with the von zeppel mount
Probably some small animation problems here and there
