Quick Note(Last updated 4/27/2026)

The mod is currently in an open beta. This is not a full, stable release and almost certainly will contain bugs and other issues. I do not play Bannerlord singleplayer much anymore, so the beta is the best way to identify problems. A good number of them have already been addressed thanks to the people who have voiced them, of which I am very thankful for. I encourage anyone who is willing to take this into account to report bugs either here on nexus or on discord (preferably). My goal for now is to get the mod in a fully functional state, how it was four years ago more or less. There is no guarantee I will provide new content to the mod, but I have some plans set in place if I choose to do so -- we'll see.

Bannerlord Overhaul is a complete rework of all troop trees and most weapons and armor. The goal of this mod is to provide the player with more variety in gameplay while still remaining lore-friendly and balanced. You'll find many troop trees completely reworked with all new weapons and armor previously unused by vanilla. Not only are these troop trees reworked and balanced for each faction, but also provide historical reference to real-life warriors. Many hours were spent attempting to perfect each troop as if they were each a single project. Please enjoy and make your next play-through the most engaging Bannerlord experience you've ever had.

Improved Survivability for low tier troops

And so much more

Troop Tree Summaries

Vlanida - A mixture of Western culture. Featuring deadly crossbowman, an archer tree, powerful cavalry, a reworked infantry tree, and 3 noble tier 7 lines.

Battania - Based loosely off of the Gallic tribes. They have a complete rework to fians to be less OP(although still extremely strong). They have a very deadly repertoire of barbarian soldiers and tactics, one of the more unique factions respectively.

Sturgia - Mostly based off of Norse background, with some Rus mixed in there. Sturgia's premise has been changed to heavy infantry, while still having excellent archer and noble cavalry trees. The mix of Varyag and Norse powers make them a very strong
