Tomb Kings: Casket of Souls Can't Attack Ground
Casket of Souls seems to only be able to attack a unit, not ground. Can this be changed?

What makes you think this is a bug? Or do you mean its an "issue" in that you don't "like" it so it should be chang....er "fixed"?

That's a fair point; I am assuming it should be able to attack ground. But, from the way it fires, it seems like artillery and not an archer.

If it were artillery that would make it the first arty that could be ridden as a mount into battle. It is also intentionally not recruitable through your artillery recruitment building. Cooincedence?

It's listed under "Artillery & War Machines" in the game right next to the Screaming Skull Catapult. Its type is "Magical Artillery".

That said, you're right it can also be ridden as a mount by wizards. Maybe it's a limitation of the engine to make something a mount and also let it attack ground.

I'll update my initial post to ask if this can be changed since that's really what I was hoping for here.

This is an excellent question. I did try to mod this myself and yes it seems to have to do with it being a shooting mount rather than a controlled artillery piece. So the answer to your question no, not by normal modding means. However I'm sure CA could easily create a work around if they so desired. I think they may argue though that the casket is not a controlled weapon, rather just a box of souls that randomly wrecks havoc when opened.
