📋 About This Mod

First and foremost, this mod was originally created by AxelCawe, so primary thanks goes to him. I updated it to work with 1. 3X and have been playing it on my own games. It is with his permission that Im uploading it here on Nexus.

Features:

Hunting Game

Hunt your prisoner down on a battlefield with your troops. This is mostly for fun/RP purposes.

Take Prisoner's Equipment

Some Nobles have nice gear, take it for yourself.

Demand Ransom From Prisoner's Clan

You can ask your prisoner to write a letter to his/her clan to pay ransom for keeping him/her alive, they'll either pay or not after a few days.

Convert Prisoner Lords To Become Your Companion

Engage in a simple persuasion dialog to convince your prisoner to join you as a companion. Faction leaders not included. But a good option for getting some really solid companions for your playthrough. Note: Companion cap still applies.

Forced Marriage

Force your prisoners to join your clan by letting them marry your family members or companions. Making them marry a family member turns them into a family member. Marrying a companion, makes them a companion. If they're already married, you're out of luck on this option.

New in Version 1. 1:

If HotButter is not installed/enabled, this option will simply be unavailable. If Hot Butter is installed, you can probably figure out what this option does.

I added this mod alongside many others in an on-going save. Should be safe to add/remove. Should play nice with most mods. I have like 30 on my current game. I have not tested in Storymode, only Sandbox.

You should always back up your saves. Tested on 1. 3. 13 w/ Warsails.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you want the 'Make Use' option, install HotButter mod; otherwise it's hidden.
  • Test in Sandbox first, as the author hasn't verified Storymode compatibility.
  • Back up your saves before adding to an ongoing game, as with any mod.
