[1.2][BUG] AI units with no weapons

I went through the unit files and found all the AI units that do not have weapons. (You have noted and fixed the peace keeper already)

Unit_Amarian_AI8 - Sons of the Edge
Unit_Defender_Altarian_AI2 - Peace Keeper
Unit_Defender_Amarian_AI2 - Guardian
Unit_Defender_Tarth_AI2 - Redoubter
Unit_Heavy_Trog_AI - Pain Monger
Unit_Magic_Light_Altarian_AI2 - Savior of Athica
Unit_Magic_Medium_Trog_AI3 - Intimidator
Unit_Medium_Altarian_AI5 - Athican Soldier

Yup, I just ran into some Amarian Guardians. Attack value of zero.

Any weapons you would recommend (or quickly code in) so that we don't have to wait until 1.3 to see the fix?

So, I haven't a clue what most of the weapons that the developers wanted to have for each of these units, but here are some guesses to the weapons.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75549875/Fallen%20Enchantress/AI%20Fixes/AIUnitMissingWeapons.xml

Sons of the Edge - Added a shortsword with blade ForUpgradeActionOnly

PeaceKeeper - Added weapon upgrade  for blunt weapons

Guardian - Added weapon upgrade for blunt weapons

Redoubter - Added weapon upgrade for blunt weapons

Pain Monger - Added weapon upgrade for blunt weapons

Savior of Athica - Added weapon upgrade for blade weapons

Intimidator - Added weapon upgrade for blade weapons

Athican Soldier - Added weapon upgrade for blade weapons

I made guesses at the weapons given the other equipment and race types. I'm only sure I'm correct about the PeaceKeeper, Guardian, Redoubter (defenders blunt weapons)

For the sons of the edge it seems appropriate to have them with swords, the rest are guesses, all speculation.

In this process, I noticed that Krax AI units are not using Krax spears. Seems a bit off to me.

The winter guard doesn't use a krax spear.

<UnitType InternalName="Unit_Magic_Light_Krax_AI">
        <DisplayName>Winterguard</DisplayName>
        <RaceType>Race_Type_Krax</RaceType>
        <CanBeDesigned>1</CanBeDesigned>

        </LevelMilestone>
        <SelectedAbilityBonusOption>Blood_Krax</SelectedAbilityBonusOption>

        <Equipment>Spear_Ice</Equipment>
        <Equipment>LeatherBoots</Equipment>

        <Equipment>LeatherHelmet</Equipment>

        <Equipment>F_Head_Wraith_Mesh_01</Equipment>
        <Equipment>Noble_Cloak_ID1</Equipment>
        <Equipment>Sovereign_Short_Hair_04</Equipment>
        <Prereq>
            <Type>Race</Type>
            <Attribute>Race_Type_Krax</Attribute>
        </Prereq>

...

it should probably be

         <Equipment>Spear_Ice_Krax</Equipment>

also since Krax can use shields maybe add

          <Equipment>WoodShield</Equipment>

to the equipment list. The rest of the Krax troops seems to be ok.

In the mean time, maybe this becomes one of your mods. ;)

Thank you very much for putting together a temporary fix.

None of them ended up with an Angelic Shortsword...did they? :-"
