[3.1.0] Armour-piercing Lance Charges!

This mod does not require updates, except when a new lance-armed cavalry unit has been added.

Lance-armed cavalry units in TW:WH suffer from a critical lack of armour-piercing damage, which in turn render them extremely ineffective against heavily armoured units.

This mod adds a simple passive ability to all lance-armed cavalry units that activates when the unit is charging, giving a large bonus to the armour-piercing damage.


The weight of the rider, the mount, and all of their equipment crashing into some dudes wearing heavy plate will now be felt more acutely, although leaving your lance-armed cavalrymen in prolonged melee will still leave them vulnerable as now they will not have the momentum behind their attacks.
