Hit-and-Run Units

Description
Adds the Javelin Thrower, and the Sniper, who both have the same Hit-and-Run design.

The Units have 3 moves, and can move after attacking. This means (on flat terrain) they can simply run in, attack, and retreat a tile, receiving little damage.

Requires G&K, and BNW. It should be compatible with most other mods (it has been proved to work with my Norman Civilization mod, which you can check out in my Workshop Files.)

Man snipers become obsolete in ww1 and ww2 so you can't use them! and this fact get unless your work wtf

You should make a modern sniper as well. It's annoying having snipers be obsolete in the modern era.

Woah woah woah. Javelins have the extra movement and hit-and-run as advertised. But also, they have 1 more ranged strength than archers? And the melee strength of warriors? This might be balanced if you reduce the ranged distance to 1.

On the strategic view, my new javelin thrower's icon was visible for 1 turn, and then it vanished. The unit was still there, it was just invisible on the strategic view. :CapitalDome:

A thought for the sniper. When attacking infantry give it a damage bonus, say 20%. When attacking armor give it a penalty so it only does like 1-5% damage and when attacking cities also apply this penalty but more like 5-10%. However when the sniper is garrisoned in a city give it a +50% combat power. This makes it more specialized and an excellent defender for cities just like the Russian snipers. Something like that. Not sure about the limits of modding units but these are some cool thoughts I had.

sniper should have penalt against cities, and have lower strength than artillery, but, gets a huge flanking bonus

Enjoy the javelineer, thanks

Just call it something like Modern Sniper and have it do less damage than Infantry.

@Razarza I didn't plan to, have you got any ideas to what that unit would be?
