Ratling Gunners arent firing?

[Duncan]

Anyone running in to this issue aswell? My rattling gunners have a hard time to start shooting some battles they simply do not.

[Kaaz]

make sure they have line of sight, they are gunners it has to be direct

[Totally Not Myers]

They're like any gunner type infantry. Gotta have direct sight, or far enough back that their firing arc can go over the front line's heads.

Yes, it seems, you should flanking you target. The projectils go a straight way to the target... So, if an own unit is in front of the target, the gunners can't hit them. And this might also be true for the jazzeils. (I'm not sure about that, though.)

I have sometimes weird "bug" when if you have selected "skirmish move" aka running from enemy and enemy unit is circling close to you but not really closing my shooty units are in constat dilema of standing or running and it makes not setup for fire ....so try to turn skirmish next time they shoud shoot

[Duncan]

Thanks for the feedback!

It is absolute bs that skaven cant fire into mellee with flat lined damage dealers. As a warhammer miniature nerd, I will tell you: IT IS IN THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ARMY RULES! Yes in warhammer fantasy you can not fire into melee, but Skaven play under the mantra "Rules for thee, not for me." They have 0 issue firing into their own melee fronts with all manner of abominable artillery and ammunition. IE: Gatling gunners should be shooting straight ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ through, and I mean STRAIGHT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ through their own infantry to hit the enemy.CUZ THATS HOW YOU ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ SKAVEN CA!!!

For those unfamiliar with what I am talking about: One of the special army rules that skaven has is the ability to fire artillery, flame throwers, etc into melee fronts. Something other militaries will not do in game, becouse they have this pesky, stupid thing called monogamous breeding that makes your units indispensable, where as Skaven are billions in number and therefore inexhaustible. So why should they care when a whole unit of slaves burns becouse the clan rats with warpfire throwers behind them spray and pray into the enemy the slaves just held down.

You are correct sir. It's the one thing that makes me sad about this game.
