  • [BtS] Ranged Bombardment

    Ranged Bombardment for Beyond the Sword 3.02!

    Return your bombarding units to REAL siege units! With Ranged Bombardment your siege units can now bombard into adjacent tiles. They can also bombard cities, units and terrain improvements.

    The BtS version has been improved on previous versions. Only ONE xml tag is required for ranged bombarding units, and the old method is retained. For an example in the supplied mod see Catapults (can bombard cities as per old method but cannot range bombard).

    Instructions:
    1. Download the mod. http://rtw.apolyton.net/files/BtS-DCMRangedBombard.zip
    2. Unzip to ..\Beyond the Sword\Mods\
    3. Launch BtS and switch to mod DCMRangedBombard.
    4. Play as you normally would.

    How to use:
    The important section. How to "use" the mod.

    When you build siege units with the Ranged Bombard ability you will notice they will show a range of operations when selected (or a stack with a siege unit in it). This shows the range the unit can bombard cities, units or improvements. Simply click the Bombard icon and select the target tile to bombard it.

    Supplied unit stats: (to change open Civ4UnitInfos.xml and change tag iDCMBombRange)
    - Catapult: 0 (but can bombard via old method)
    - Hwacha: 0 (but can bombard via old method)
    - Trebuchet: 1
    - Cannon: 1
    - Artillery: 2
    - Mobile Artillery: 2
    - Frigate: 1
    - Ship of the Line: 1
    - Ironclad: 1
    - Destroyer: 1
    - Battleship: 2
    - Missile Cruiser: 1
    - Stealth Destroyer: 1

    The DLL source files have been included.

    Enjoy the mod.
