greenskins anti-large.pack

sorry but i'm no modder right now...at least not a capable one so i can't really figure out how to update a mod properly... maybe i'll learn it in time but right now it's just easier for me to just make another one identical with the adjustement suggested below in the comment

update plz

lorewise Clanrats have higher AC (3 vs 2 of gobbos ) but less leadership (5 vs 6 og gobbos) and the rest is fairly even.so they are basically on par with clanrats ,and exactly even in therms of strenght. so,i f clanrats have a bonus of 9...i can't see why gobbos can't have 8.i think i will decrease it to 7 or 6 just because in the vanilla gobbos are already better in melee that clanrats with 20 MA and 25 WS and with 8 those numbers will rise to 28 MA and 33 WS wich is not gargantuan but i can see that is a bit too much.but only because gobbos already have decent melle stats compared to other similar fodder units.

Yeah, 8 seems like a bit of a strong buff all things considered. Gobbos ARE weaker lorewise than Skaven.

a well coordinated cavalry charge would melt away even clanrats with spears or a Ungor herd. Skaven are shorter and far weaker than a regular human and gobbos are definitively not weaker in matter of phisical strenght than a skaven. i didn't give charge defence to gobbos so a strong cavalry charge would melt them away aniway because of their morale. i choose 8 as an anti-large for something in beetwen skavenslaves and clanrats(more than slave,less than rats) but i really don't understand why people thinks that skaven should be stronger than goblin given the fact that in the tabletop they strenght is pretty much even. they are much shorter than a man (a half?or maybe slightly more than a half man) so basically the same of gobbos. maybe the bonus is a bit high but i think that this bonus should be higher than the skavenslaves ones or at the very least equal. i will try some test to see if 8 is too much and if is soo i will put it down to 6. by now,great thanks for the help!!

Truth be told, a regiment of goblins (even armed with spears) would probably melt away at a well co-ordinated cavalry charge. Maybe give them a bonus of 4 instead of 8?

Skavenslaves are about human sized ingame, actually, while gobbos are even shorter than dwarfs.

the anti-large bonus is not a matter of the size or the races of the fighter...is a matter of weapon. spears are anti-large(because spears are good at make a lot of damage but are a less manageable than sword or mace or other 1 handed weapon..so they're good at damaging big target that are easyer to hit). in the tabletob,goblin are only slightly weaker than human or Ungor,so why they're damage should be less? even trought...did you seen skavenslaves?? they're half dead freaking stupidly orrible rats and are as tall as a gobbo....but they have anti-large AND charge defence. i represent the goblin lack of organization and coordination and leadership by not giving them charge defence...but they should definitively gain their anti-large bonus.

Isn't an anti large bonus of 8 rather big for Goblins? The whole reason they don't have anti-large is because they're goblins, they're so weak that they couldn't hold up enough to give cavalry trouble.

Sure it makes sense. Actually there were at least 3 different mods in WH1 that did the exact same thing, so people certainly want this small buff in their orc spear infantry ;)
