Use "unittypes.whdat" in "data" folder for this.

Thank you ! :wink:

However, it only worked partially. Here's what I did :


1) Opened the "unittypes.whdat" file with Notepad ;

2) Modified the cost in requisition points to 625 (successful) ;

3) Added power fists to the unit as shown by their icon and artwork and in accordance to the lore (successful) ;

4) Added Assault to the unit's traits (unsuccessful). I had the same problem with The Steel Legion fire support team equipped with missile launchers by the way. :cry:

Strangely, Firedrakes don't have access to Land Raiders but to Rhinos (?!?).

This is my second question : how can you associate a unit with a dedicated transport ?

I noticed that Landspeeders Storm exist in the units list and they would be appropriate for scouts !
