Balanced Formation Stats V2

NOT TO BE USED WITH LEGIONS OF ROME (this has the new formations incorporated).

Inspired by Gurthrum's "Better Formations" mod, but numbers adjusted to better reflect different historical roles within the Roman army. Stats are better than vanilla, but less overpowered than Better Formations.

Mod is aimed for WRE/ERE players. If you play WRE, please check out my Legions of Rome mod.

Attacking Testudo
Historical formation used in siege warfare to advance to enemy positions providing cover against missile fire.
Missile block chance +70
Entity mass +300%

Defensive Testudo
This reflects the historical defensive formation used to weather substantial enemy missile fire. Can provide limited advantage against mounted units but won't be effective in protracted melee.
Missile block chance +80
Shield defence +10
Cavalry attack +10
Elephant attack +10
Entity mass +400%

Shield Wall
Stats changed to simulate (as best as possible) the classical Roman line formation presenting a dense wall of unbroken shields. Effective against infantry, with small resistance to missile fire and cavalry.
Missile block chance +25
Shield defence +25
Infantry attack +25
Cavalry attack +10
Entity mass +300%

Spear Wall
Anti-cavalry and general defensive formation.
Missile block chance +25
Shield defence +25
Infantry attack +10
Cavalry attack +25
Elephant attack +15
Entity mass +300%
