well, once i downloaded it, i turned off automatic patching; that way i dont have to wait for the mod to be updated.

its a pretty cool mod; compatible with terra incognita, darthmod, and another one i forgot. it doesnt change much gameplay-wise, but it adds some interesting units.

Man, if those shotgunners are anything like grenzers, then there's no way you can lose. You just gotta know how to use them.

shotgunners are ok, but i think they're glitched or something.

in the mod, there is a british unit called knocks volley gunners, who are infantry. who fire canister shot.

but the shotgunners i have yet to see any real shotgun blasts. i tried to mod it to the same as the knocks volley gun ammo, but it wont use it no mater how many times i save the file.

Well, a nock gun is a seven-barrelled musket; it shouldn't be the same as the blunderbuss.

They should decrease the nock gun unit's ammunition to 1 volley only, since everyone would be sporting broken shoulders after the first volley lol.

lol i read that.

but, couldnt you just hold it slightly under your armpit? i mean, in large-scale line infantry battles, accuracy would be about the same.

the point is the blunderbuss shotgunners are supposed to be shotgunners. i expect to see 8-12 shots coming from each blunderbuss.

Sgt. Patrick Harper from the Sharpe series uses a nock gun; he usually fires from the hip. Come to think of it, I don't remember him firing it from the shoulder in the TV series.

Does that nock gun unit have a long reload time?
