Mechanical beings and afflictions

[Xietor]

Instead of gift of health healing mechanical beings,or a priestess, would it not make since that some races could repair them at a lab for resources or gold if a unit with a certain designation was present?

Say Ulm, Argatha, and other races that seem attuned to having mechanical beings, had certain units of these races could have a "repair" designation and fix things that are wrong with mechanical units, like missing arm etc. if a lab was present in the province.

Nice idea.

[Shovah32]

Or perhaps make it so that any commander could repair mechanical units with nations such as Ulm and Agartha getting some sort of bonus? Aswell as requiring a lab the repair action should also drain resources.

[Endoperez]

Nice idea, and constructs already get some similar exceptions. However, it should be automatic. Perhaps draining unused resources from the province, like fixing spell-broken armor, but only limited to provinces with labs.

Creatures that have both "does not heal" and "magic being" tags will automatically heal (regain hitpoints) whenever they are in a province with a friendly lab. Most constructs with "does not heal" are also magic beings.

Units whose armor has been broken (Armor of Achilles, Acid Storm) need to be in a province with unused resources to get them fixed.

actauly I'm fairly sure you need to bring your men to a fort to have their equipment replaced.
