Hi guys
I'm back again with another small suggestion for the short but irreducible Dwarves. It's about King Dain. Several months ago i thrown this idea on Discord server, maybe Necro or someone else remebers
. Then among hundreds of things i have never managed to post it here. Anyhow:
I suggest to make King Dain mount his royal battle wagon instead of the boar at level 6 ( which suits more for the younger Lord Dain). The effect would ramain the same:
Level 6 - Dáin's Royal Carriage: As long as Burst of Rage is active, Dáin can temporarily mount his royal battle wagon. While mounted, he triggers a new Burst of Rage with every attack against enemy units or heroes without needing to recharge.
The features of the Royal Wagon: it is the personal carriage of the king, it is quite compact with no other crew inside. It is carried by two boars (see details below for the design and reasons of this choice). In game has a little bit more knock back area during trampling than the standard battle wagons and also it has more resistance against pikes, especially due to the thick leather of the boras. In terms of damage it has low trampling damage (balance reason, otherwise it would be unstoppable) but high single damage.
So the overall purpose of the battle wagon is to support the king in battle, such that when he's ranging he can disrupt the enemy lines as well as granting a constant bonus to the near troops.
I decided to go for the boars to keep them as Dain's favourite animals in battle, as well as for unqueness making the Royal wagon look different. Moreover as written above boars are very reistant and robust. But if for any reasons the boars are a problem, i’m of course fine also with the goats since the central theme here is the Royal Chariot itself
The models i propose are the new battle wagon modeled by Joragon and the boars model of "
An Edain Submod" if the authors agree (Glorfindel23 and ThorinTheKing in that case):
Below an example (more or less) of how it should look eventually:
Let me know what do you think about it and what aspect(s) would you change
