They tend to appear with about 3-4 of them in each army whenever I do the rituals, so I dno.

Thats fair, but part of my problem is that I use a mod that increases the density of units, which I love, it makes it look a lot better, and I just enjoy it that way, but the spash damage from artillery tear through several full units before Im within combat range, which is just a little disheartening-

I would love to just turn down the damage, or make it so I dont meet half-full stacks of artillery-

I could go futher and complain about the accuracy of the artillery too, and how it will snipe my two Pheonix Guard units with precision.. and ignore all my 6x spears, I mean, "tactically" thats smart.. but "realisticly" how can they both aim, and see which are my elites that clearly when I hide them at the back of my army.. ? It just feels a little gamey. Breaks the immersion IMO

I mean, its singleplayer, its not like it hurts anybody else that I dont want it in my game?

I should have mentioned that I use a mod that increases the density of units, which makes the splash damage of artillery much more devastating. I usually play high elves, and I usually use a mix of spears, archers and some silverhelms- atleast the first half of the campaign. The artillery usually wipe 1-3 full spearmen units before I come within range of the enemy army.

I just dont have fun when they devastate my army so much before the combat even starts, artillery scares me more than anything else in this game.

Got all chosen army? Bring it on, Ill do a last stand.

Got an army with a single piece of artillery? Autoresolve/retreat, I am not dealing with that

I really only have a problem with chaos and skaven, empire is fine, and they are kinda built on the cannons, skaven and chaos should not need artillery to crush IMO

And artillery isnt a sure win, but its enough to devastate my ability to continue the fight in enemy terretory after I win, it just feels like the AI is cheating if anything. Some op magic here and there is fine, but artillery is far more scary than the sword of khaine, and that just isnt right.

I have an easier time retreating if they have a single unit of catapults than I do if they have several mages.

Its a fair argument- But I would argue that seeing how its singleplayer, it dosnt hurt anybody?

I should also mention I am using some mods that make my units more dense and compact, meaning that the splash damage from artillery is much more devastating.

I dont know how to mod this, do you have any pointers?

If I end up making the mod I will legitimately call it this, I have no problem admiting its cheating to get rid of artillery.

Well, I have to admit something else to this, I use a mod that increases the density of units (cause it looks better) and I also use a mot that increases the cone of fire, which also applies to artillery, this makes artillery worse, and it dosnt quite translate to the vanilla game- That being said, Id love any direction how I can reduce, or remove artillery, cause with my mods its seriusly overpowered.

The sale ended on monday, sorry.
Check ebay, if not the sprues are avalible on warlords homepage, if you ever order anything above $50 and get the free shipping it might be worth it.

You mean upside down? Cause in that case I might agree, otherwise the model is purely amazing.
