Possible for Legolas to use archer?

[Altimis]

I saw bow in his back but he can't use it lol

it was possible to make general with bow like Legolas to using bow? it would look great!

I wanna see Legolas one shoted some Troll like the movie

[Seleukos_I.]

Afaik it's not possible. Unfortunately

[Shocked]

Yeah because he is a general, and generals can only hit with a melee weapon, its hardcoded

[Muffer Nl]

It is not possible as a general can only use one handed melee weapons without a shield unless someone found where the General class is defined and where it is possible to make him use another weapon and animation.

I saw somewhere a pic of a general with a sword in both of his hands.

William Wallace in Britannia is a general and his not mounted and uses 2handed sword.

Isnt it possible to make Heros like Legolas, Aragorn and so on just a single unit without bodyguards?

[HarneY]

Would it be possible to make him a unit and not a general but make him AOR and make the time it takes to rebuy him so big nobody would ever be able to get him back? And then in-game if you wanted to protect him just group him with some archers and pretend their his bodyguards
Yeh it will use a unit count but TATW hasn't reached the limit has it?

You can't have one-man units. And I prefer to have them as generals.

You actually can check the 1.4 preview (balrog)

I was not aware that the balrog was a one man unit. I think it's a 4 man unit, last rumour I heard. The only way to get one man unit, I heard, is to have this 4 man unit and play on small scale.

Having a one-man unit balanced for the Hugh scale will mean it's overpowered in smaller scales.

The CoW:TW team did it with their greater demons...

It is impossible to have 1 man units on huge unit scale. The greater demon probably is an elephant type unit. KK said he did not wan´t to use those workarounds as they make the mod unstable. It might become a four men unit or a spawning general for the OotMM. There is not much known about that at this time but KK suggested the last time he spoke on the subject excluding the 1.4 preview that he was not sure of it himself yet either.

Out topic question

Dread general are better than honor general in battlefield?

Dread - mean to cause enemy loose their morale quickly?

Honor - used for pumping population growth? =)

[Seleukos_I.]

Honor - your units flee later.

[Altimis]

Thanks for quick reply! so it look like this

Dread - cause enemy more early to flee

Honor - My army will fight harder, morale last longer

[Muffer Nl]

Thanks for quick reply! so it look like this

Dread - cause enemy more early to flee - bonus to public order

Honor - My army will fight harder, morale last longer - bonus to population growth and smaller bonus to public order

Bang on the money muffer I am liking your advice more and more and the winner of this years most improved advice page goes to "drum roll" muffer the magnificent

So Legolas uses sword like all generals? Thats bit odd tbh since Dale generals use bow and are on foot, would fit so much more for legolas.

[Muffer Nl]

The generals themselves don´t use bows they only use swords. The bodyguard units use bows.
