AOR Colonies (Unit) Expanded (New Release 17/08/08)

[Banzai!]

Handgunners, arqubusers, etc... are causing game to crash.

Did you download artassets1.rar?

[scivian]

I already had it installed and in the order you described, I see you have a new version and will post if any issues.

[Fistanditilus]

would it be possible for you to upload an animation file with just the shortened javelineer's animation? cuz i dont really want the other ones (im not saying theyre not good, its just only want the javelin animation)

[Banzai!]

Plan for next week:

Bring this mod into the 17th century!

• Import grumpyoldman's late musketeer skin into the game (in pikeman, caracole cavalry and musket config)

Proposed roster increase: (I'm not quite sure what the names are)

• Hat musketeers
• Mounted hat pistols
• Lobster helmet cavalry
• Current Alatriste -> hat Alatriste
• Unupgraded pikemen -> hat pikemen
• "Culloden"-class highland infantry

[JaM]

Bayonets were used since 1650 by France. So if you want to create a 17th century mod, you will have to include them as well

[Banzai!]

1080-1648.

And primarily just added units. Someone else can make a campaign & protestantism event chain if they are up for it (recommend: Knights Templar -> Sweden).

[JaM]

nice. my favorite ERA (1450-1650)... i was quite suprised that CA dont use that period of time (1600-1700) in Empire TW... what a waste...

[JaM]

btw my idea about protestentism - it should work similarly like cristianism in RTW BI -providing some benefits, but causing revolts due to religion unrests...

[Banzai!]

Oh and to anyone who wants to help esp. with unit texturing feel free to chip in.

Place for me to put concept art:

Can you post your system.log.txt located in your MTW2/logs folder

[LordN00KE]

Banzai I found this on your EDB in c_cannon_maker

I think you accidentally deleted the rest.
[edit] The new hats for arqubusiers are black in color. I'm playing as spain
and it seems that the new crossbow animation skipped the recoil and when reloading the crossbow kinda moved then back again.

[Point Blank]

Would be great to have a true 'Late' late era campaign, starting at beginning of 100 years war (about 1337) and go through to mid 1600's.

[JaM]

btw, we could introduce Burgundians -just remove Aragon- it was existing as a independent kingdom till 1469 - after that they were united with Castilians as Spain. If we could create correct AOR system, then all Aragon units would be still recruitable in Aragon provinces. And every Aragon fan, will get also Castille to control... Burgundians as a faction were quite significat it that era, therefore they can't be excluded...

[JaM]

just found this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The most significant advances in firepower and range came in the area of artillery. At the beginning of the Thirty Years War, artillery was still handcast by individual craftsmen. The weight of these individualized artillery pieces was often too great to make them mobile enough for effective use against enemy formations, although they served well enough in sieges. Gustavus Adolphus standardized the size of cannon and shot, and produced the first lightweight artillery guns. He also standardized infantry rifle barrels and musket shot. This system of millimeter caliber measurement was adopted almost universally, and is still used today in most modern armies. Adolphus standardized artillery firing procedures as well so that his artillery gunners could fire eight rounds from a single gun in the time it took a musketeer with a firelock to fire a single round.


stats about traning:
---------------------------
No army in the West equaled the level of training of the Roman army until at least the 17th century. Prior to that, the primacy of cavalry forces over infantry had relegated the infantry to a minor role on the battlefield. The development of the musket changed this picture, as did the introduction of the bayonet. Now the infantry could deploy in lines instead of phalanxes and deliver more combat power. But the use of linear tactics required a highly trained soldier, one who could also master the 16 steps in loading a musket while under fire. One of the major reasons that Napoleon utilized the column formation instead of infantry lines was precisely because his use of conscript manpower made it impossible to train so many men to the level of discipline and skill required by the linear tactics of his day. As a consequence, Napoleon's column formations represented a return to the use of the infantry phalanx, in which the safety of the packed herd and sheer courage would compensate for the infantryman's lack of skill.

@Templar Knight:
Did you download animationspack.rar (which I updated) and install it last?

[Templar Knight]

no i thought the animations thing was optional

i will download it now and tell you if it fixed my problem

[Barser]

Banzai: Your on to something with this mod. Would be really great with a better late game. I tryed your animation pack and though it needs some tweaking there was notable improvements. Good job.

[Templar Knight]

it works now, but i am missing a lot of unit cards
