Anyone else have this problem?

Anyone else have the problem of shooting downward? I don't know if its just me but everytime I'm the defender of a castle, none of my troops are killing the enemies including me, but if I'm the attacker, I always kill all the enemies with few casaulties by staying on ground level.

yes
the mod age of nationalism seems to have fixed this feature, but unfortunately no britsh faction/

It's the bullet drop. I'm not sure whether the AI calculates to aim in order for the bullet to hit. But anyway, in sieges the bayonet is most important.

Wouldn't a sword/bardiche/flintlock pistol be the most important? I know bayonets work, but they have 0 range, so it's pretty dangerous to get into the correct range to stab.

A bayonet that has been fixed, i.e. without the 0 range bug, would surpass most of those. A heavy cavalry sword or a bardiche could work, but the usual bayonet spam would easily cut the few numbers of heavy cavalry and strelsy/black watch.

Exactly, but the problem is the bayonets aren't fixed.

It's easily fixed if you use item editor or download one of the bugfixes/add-ons with bugfixes.

Owned.............well he probally didn't even know you could fix it....

 

[bjorne.]

He probably didn't even give a damn to care look for it...

Realm of Revolution in my opinion failed.. Therefor did I start the Scandinavia/1716 projects.. To do it right from the very start..

Yeah but hey, I'm having a lot more fun with my add-on than I did from the start. More of a complete overhaul now. But hey, I hope progress on 1716/Scandinavia is going well.
