Welcome back, commander! Timnaka, the leader of DerpHammer, has recently posted some of the progress done with DerpHammer. DerpHammer is a modification for 0.a.d (Pyrogenesis Engine) that is inspired on the iconic Warhammer Fantasy, featuring factions, units and characters from it. Here is what was shared about it:

Quote:
Each faction gets its own roster of 8 unique Heroes, powerful named characters that lead the armies into battle. Each Hero comes with a set of abilities and traits to make them distinct from another. Additionally, certain Heroes can become even stronger by unlocking their Mounts!
While many Heroes are meant to be direct parallels to existing Warhammer characters, some are original additions of mine, usually based on historical or mythological figures that fit the faction aesthetic.

(Note: Ability effects may change as development continues; Some abilities that affect specific enemy types may not be of much use for the moment as their targets aren't in the game yet)



Emperor Karolus Magnus IX, The Prince of Kaiserstadt








The current leader of the Empire and latest wielder of the DerpHammer, Karolus Magnus has worked hard to bring the weakened nation back to its full strength and beyond. Mounted ontop his two-headed griffon, he bravely leads the forces of man against the horrors that threaten them.

  • Silver Seal: Nearby units gain Magic armor

  • Anti-Large: Deals additional damage to large units
