📋 About This Mod
OBSOLETE !
For versions 1. 3.x use the newly revived mod Historical Banner Icons Re Uploaded
A simple yet an effective mod, it currently adds 564 historically inspired symbols and around 50 colors to the banner editor. Banner icons ID groups go from 1000-1036 atm, and as such should be compatible with other banner icons mods, that have group IDs in 3 digits mostly.
Future updates will bring many more symbols from different cultures and different time periods !
If you want AI clans and kingdoms to use these icons, check out this sub-mod
I highly recommend to use these icons with Bloc's Banner Editor

Steam version

Installation:
2. Drop in the Modules folder
3. Select it in the Launcher
4. Enjoy!!!
Uninstallation:
Just remove the mod from the Modules folder.
- NOT ALL of the banners are 100% derived from historical sources, many are INSPIRED by history, some are there for homage and/or nostalgia from previous M&B games or other franchises, so i will ignore quasi-purist comments about that.
+ Can you add this and that singular banner?
- Nope, i will reconsider suggestions for cultural, regional or time period BUNDLES , but i wont be adding icons 1 by 1, since source files clearly let us do bundles of 16 and nice groupings by any means we want.
+ Its not working with mod ABC, should I create a bug report?
- No. Just post it in here so that others can see it. I can try to look at it later but I'm not obliged to support any other mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge variety with 564 icons and 50 colors — you'll never run out of banner options.
- Community favorite with 2,217 endorsements and over 256k downloads.
- Designed to be compatible with other banner mods thanks to high ID groups.
⚠️ Cons
- Marked as OBSOLETE for versions 1.3.x — you'll need to switch to the re-uploaded version for newer game updates.
- Only works on 1.2.x, so if you're on 1.1.x or 1.3.x, you're out of luck with this file.
- Author won't add individual banner requests — only cultural or regional bundles, so don't ask for that one specific icon.
For Bannerlord players who want to customize their banners with historically inspired designs and don't mind sticking to game version 1.2.x. If you're on 1.3.x or later, skip this and grab the re-uploaded version instead. This is purely cosmetic, so if you want gameplay changes, look elsewhere.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure your game version is 1.2.x before installing — check the main menu bottom corner.
- If you're on 1.3.x, search for 'Historical Banner Icons Re Uploaded' instead of this mod.
- Use Bloc's Banner Editor to easily browse and apply these icons in-game.
