📋 About This Mod
OUR DISCORD: Eagle Rising
Eagle Rising: Warsails
Leave an endorsement if you enjoy the mod and would like to see it more developed!
CA_Eagle_Rising_Warsails
Rather a "small" patch, that brings mod on 1. 3+
Warsails is required for mod to work, purly becouse mod team don't have much time to work on other version.
It's on Calradia as we don't have modding tools for DLC to adjust Europe map for warsails. going back on Calradia is also good chance to work again on stability and quality of factions.
Changes are rather small: Some gear is improved, some bugs fixed, a lot of new armors, but most not implemented to aquaire beside tournaments/cheets.
Implemented few scenes and aditional code: New arenas, more populated towns, spear fight adjustments.
Nords use mostly our germanic gear.
We plan to finnaly get back to II Punic War setting, but development is slow, we will move when we will see that our assets base and base game setup is proper eoungh.
We will go back to Europe map if we find time and TW realse modding tools for DLC.
