Officer (not general) - IMPLEMENTED

[L4cus]

A unit with small buffing aura to be next to fighting infantry on the front
Cost 4
Hp 30
Attack 8
Range 1
Armor 3/3
Speed 3
Sight 5
Spell resistance 30%
Bonuses
+100% v infantry

Aura: hold morale
Neutralize the enemies moral shocks
+2 attack, +1/+1 armor to owned units

Reasons...these wars characterized by not having that huge losses on both sides since weapons (muskets and cannons) were not that accuerate. The most important factor was the control line to keep giving orders and the morale...
So iwwwasthinkng about the game and maybe foucs it on morale combats...
Every enemy attack will low ur stats...
If u dont take care of that, ur units will be worse than ur enemies and u will be dwfeated...
Is just an idea i just got...

Yeah we were talking about something similar before, like shock aura for heavy troops. It would be cool to implement more morale related things also. Officers could help get rid of such effects for troops near to them

If an allied unit is close to an enemy unit ( eg. 2 tiles & 2 enemies ) it will inflict demoralize tp the sprrounded unit

i dont really get what u mean...

and yeah, i think we talked about this before...

other idea is that wecould hvae officers for every type of unit...cav, infantry, artillery...and only 1 kind of general (a superior officer)
each one specializes in buff one kind of unit

I think it should depend, not every unit should have aura. Especially as the auras(atleast some) will stack.

For example:
Shock aura only for heavy units (heavy cav, knights, grenadiers etc.),
some elite units could have demoralise aura(winged hussar, old guard, coldstream guard etc.)
Leadership/encourage aura to counter demoralise aura by buffing nearby units(officers)
You will need to build leadership units like officers because without them, low quality spam armies can become useless if too many demoralise aura units are nearby

And we still need many more ideas for this

[Gral.Sturnn]

should it be mounted or in foot?

[L4cus]

should it be mounted or in foot?

Infantry oficer: dismounted
Artillery officer: doubt
Cavalry officer: Mounted (obviously)
General/marshal (mounted)

every one will have an additional unit on the sprite

infantry officer: flag banner
Artillery officer: assitant gunner
Cavalry officer: a horseman with trumpet
General/marshal: bodyguard(2 more men)

[Squirrel5555]

Well we have 18th english infantry officer already

[Badnorth]

Deleted.

[Badnorth]

What are the looks? What century ? Do they wield weapons? Courage boosters? (Eg. Flag)

[Squirrel5555]

Here are the 18th century infantry officers for England and France. And 18th century drummers for England and France. I made changes from the officer I posted elsewhere, so make sure you use this one.

[Badnorth]

Wow*

Looks great

[Squirrel5555]

French cavalry officer, has a guy with a trumpet also

[L4cus]

As spected of u, good images squirrel!
Then, these ifficers should be produced from the discoveries era (17th century) or just for 18th century?

[Squirrel5555]

Thanks

Then, these ifficers should be produced from the discoveries era (17th century) or just for 18th century?

I'm not sure, but uniforms did not change TOO much from mid-late 17th century - 18th century, so maybe we can makes these units available in discovery era?

[L4cus]

Great!...
What about generals? They existed even at medieval era...
Maybe the sprite could change along the era...
Medieval era: sinilar to a knight
Renaissance: full body armor
Discoveries: courass
Napoleonic: not armor but some unique accesories

[Gral.Sturnn]

sounds cool, you know if aonyone needs images, just let me know

[L4cus]

riht now, we dont.
but we could use unused sprites...i mean, we have lots of discarded sprite all around the forum we can use for it...if any of them fit the characteristics we are asking, them we make a new sprite

[Maxbirykov2004]

Well...

mmh those flag should show the nation flag
here the british flag:

[L4cus]

the json is ready and the aura too, so it would only need the image
the aura needs an indicator

[Squirrel5555]

Here is mounted english officer

[Squirrel5555]

Officer with flag

[L4cus]

Officer with flag

its really nice, i think it needs more team clor

[Squirrel5555]

Okay

[Gral.Sturnn]

Ill take the 17th century ones

[Maxbirykov2004]

Wow

[DreJaDe]

Okay

Now too much team coloring jk.

I think the arms, the hat dont and the sword gurard dont need the team coloring. Also the sword looks like a medieval sword?

[Gral.Sturnn]

Officer and general discoceries era

[L4cus]

it fits for renaissance too
late knights will be somehow the medieval officers...
