There doesn't really seem to be any similar mod for flying units like Pegasus Knights nor Hippogryph Knights for TW2 so it is a shame that one cannot use lance formation for one's flying units in the second game. :(

This mod should be available for Total Warhammer 2 as well. But it isn't. That is a crime that the Lady cannot abide by. Could you please add it to TW2? <3

I rated this up just because of the description.

Quick suggestion, what about giving it to some non-bretonnian units ? (Blood Dragons...)
Thank you for the mod anyway !

Thank you Cataph. For your months of service to the Crown.

Adding it to the melee cav is a nice touch, so it's nice to know this is still serving a purpose. I'm not sure how this formation would work for fliers or a unit of just 4 creatures, but I can roll.

Even if you ever stop updating it, this deserves to be left up. For the nostalgia, and as a reminder of our ability to notice and efforts to correct problems with games. Even games we love. And as a reminder how a few people will go out of the way to things slightly more enjoyable for a bunch of complete strangers.

These screenshots are also just so precious.

So, it seems that CA finally stopped being a coven of imperial lackeys and are going to give Lance to most bret knights. So this mod would become redundant on the 28th, after eight months of loyal service.

However, I'm probably going to keep it here for lolz and other means, be it to nerf the official effect if necessary or simply to apply the Lance to modded units.

Can the AI do this too?

@Cataph Oh my gosh.. That second image caught me off guard. I laughed so hard I almost choked on my coffee. Great mod and loved that 2nd image!

@Ryu Doubt I can't tell you much that isn't already showing in the tables, especially not knowing what you wanna do.

@=[NK]= Col. Jack O'Neil Try them. Stats are not everything, without some micro you might disengage more slowly.

Is there a negative to putting them in lance formations?? Seems like it's all bonus'

Sup Cataph, I was wondering how exactly you managed to create this formation. Im trying to do something similar with another race but I can't seem to figure out how.

Oy yea! And Thank you !

Refreshed for Wood Huggers patch.

@NordLuxBellator Yeah. There's going to have to be Foot Knights, whether the "lore buffs" like it or not.

The results are from 6 test -in 100 % Brets lost the battle ;/
Conclusion : The frontal atack with knights of the realm is not a cost efective way to deal with the heavy infantry . The bretonnia needs heavy infantry that holds the line ..ANd they do not have one :/ At least in vanilla

I would say several things :

I have stested 60 knights of the realm and 1 general vs one vamp general and 120 grave guard with shields ( the reason they are the same cost) with upgrades, no magic,

With lance formation on the charge is great (all units are down from 2 to 4 models are dead ) but if you leave it in formation they will kill 30 to to 40 sth models and Bret will lose . With out formation the charge is weaker ( from 0 to 2 models down) BUT last for longer in mele - from 40 sth to 56 models killed .Of course you can charge in formation and disable the formation after impact ( this game needs alot of babysiting anyway ) the result is .. well a little bit better - sth like 50 sth models .

Looks to be alright with the patch, refreshed.

I... yeah, I suppose the wedge formation can be a state of mind, after all.

I don't think it is silly to have one man e in a wedge formation. How can you say that one guy wasnt already in wedge formation?

I came for the ability to form wedges with my knights, but I stayed for the knight in pic 2 of the description. So smooth

Yeah right after I posted that I noticed the ability icon over the unit icon.

Works for me (I used Lokerian's unlock). Check that it is correctly enabled or maybe you have something interfering somehow.

Is this working for all Bret cav units? Started a campaign tonight and the the two Knights of the realm you start with just do the usual square formation

Put 19/20 knight units in an army, that's as wedgy as you can get. Even 2wedgy4me.

10/10 was hoping Bretonnia would become aggressively wedgier.

thx for update, great mod!

@Lokerian: glad you like it! The Lady says hi.

Refreshed for 1.3.

Hey Cataph, i just wanted to know that i endorsed your mod in my bretonnia unlock mod for i love playing with your units and i thinik its a must have for it!

Thanks once again for your job.

I love your mods, and I love your writing. Keep it up boss <3

Well thinking about it would give Bretonnian Calvery something that distinguishes them from other Knightly Calvery from the Empire and Vampires.

@Lord Bear He is sticking to the lore / TT. In Warhammer, the only ones fighting in wedge formation are the Knights of Bretonnia. Other armies don't use that strategy.

Also, THANK YOU Cataph. This looks great.

Cannot the empire be bewedged?

That *hon hon hon* coupled with the flying dwarf really made me laugh out loud, you comedian modding genius you!

Why only Bretonnian Knights and not include Imperial and Vampiric Knights?

@mpx what as your solution? Trying to add it to some custom untis and it isn't working

Thanks for the confirmation.

@Lord Bear: why there should be? You charge people, people die/are knocked about/swear a lot.

This deserves to be downloaded based on the description alone. Well done mate :)

@Cataph figured it out thanks for the help

Does the animations when the enemy units being struck by Lance Formation Calvary look good? Because I worry that because its a mod there would be some inconsistancy with things like Animations.

this lance speach reminds of sigvalds slach speedch

LOL putting the mode aside, you are hillarious. This is actually so funny, I love it.

nvm, I found my error. Its working now :)

Cataph, how can I make it compatible with my Black Grails http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=712918398 ? I tried to add compatibility patch with only land units to abilities db entry but it doesnt work. Only writing in You mod in this table add the ability to my unit :( form_wedge black_grail. I would add the entry in my mod but it makes it dependent on Your and crashes without it.

@IT H@S ELECTROLYTES: I have no idea, it's not something I can fix on my side. When resubbing, make sure you have no AK_lance and AK_TEB packs in your WH data folder and restart steam after each step. :| You'll have to dig deeply into google to fix one of the many steam hiccups, I'm afraid.

@cataph it doesnt update on the launcher it basically all i can say the bar under the picture just stays white i already unsubcribing and reinstallling the game dont know why it wont update same thing happens with southern realms

@Alberic Strein: never heard of Bloodies forming Lance? Some of them might even be originally Brets but I never read of them having the rule. Besides, the problem is that the skill is applied to each unit, and giving it to Mousillon would make any other VC Black Knight etc to form Lance, which is nope.

@IT H@S ELECTROLYTES: like what? try rebooting Steam.

@Lyvewyrez: well, it was pretty clear here too and on the screenshots :P

ok so just read on your closer to tabletop, mentioned it does include pegasi

Can anyone suggest a good combo of mods to do a Bretonnia playthrough? Been holding off the for the official race pack... but I want to try this lol

Also, does this affect pegasus knights or just the land based?

dont know why but this mod and a couple others wont update in the launcher
