📋 About This Mod

This mod is outdated

Please see the fix for 1. 8 made by

Zoloc here :

https://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/4131

The goal of this mod is to add, for all the factions in the game, T6 troops.

With the presence in the Vanilla game of some noble troop tree, T7 units will be added to them.

Sturgia has a little more for the moment, with a female troop tree that leads to the T7 troop.

The troops are used by the NPC lords in their army.

Introducing : "I can't believe it's working" - aka, this :

I wanted to say a big thank you to fenrir6644 for all the help and ideas.

The troops (as of version 2. 0) :

Vlandia

Commoner troop tree

• Vlandian Halberdier (id vlandian_halberdier)

A simple unit. Foot soldier with a good speed and a polearm. Effective against cavalry and troops in open field but terrible in close combat and sieges.

• Vlandian Heavy Cavalry (id vlandian_heavy_cavalry)

A slighlty better cavalry than the Vanguard, with maces/sword and spear for a little extra punch.

• Vlandian Squire of the Lion (id vlandian_squire_of_the_lion)

With good stats, weapon and armors, they can be a good front line unit. They are armed with a sword or a mace.

• Vlandian Zênian Crossbowman (id vlandian_genoese_crossbowman)

A better crossbowman with a custom heavy crossbow, a slighlty better armor and a focus on the crossbow skill at the expense of other skills.

*: It's just the same crossbow than in vanilla, with some different stats. This crossbow is not (normally) available to the player.

Noble troop tree

The Ausburgian are a noble subculture of Vlandia. Repelled by the standard vlandian use of horses and spears, these warriors prefer to fight with the help of swords with oversized blades (>120 lenght).

• Ausburgian Adliger (id ausburgian_noble)

The Adliger, as a proud noble from Ausburgia, is duty-bound to fight like his ancestors. Ditching the horse, he wields an one handed longsword and a shield.

With enough experience on the field, he can choose to remain an sword/shield soldier or do make his ancestors proud and fight like a true Ausburgian : with their two handed swords.

• Ausburgian Doppelhänder (id ausburgian_zweihander)

Focusing entirely on two handed swords, their swords, the Doppelhänder possess little value for his life be makes up for it in fighting with rigor and honor.

• Ausburgian Zweihandmeister (id ausburgian_zweihandmeister)

A better two handed sword and armor. This noble is making his way into knighthood.

• Ausburgian Ritter (id vlandian_teutonic_knight)

The true Ausburgian knight. The Ritter wield a deadly two handed long sword, and possess the heavier and best armor in the game. But this comes with a price : with 70 of encumbrance, and an atheletics skill of 80, these knights are very slow.

But don't let your cavalry going into them in a vain hope of a crushing charge, as they use their swords like spear and can intercept and kill mounted units even before they can approach them.

• Ausburgian Waffenknecht (id ausburgian_waffenknecht)

Some nobles value their lives a little, and understand the tactical advantage of having a shield. Even if they never reach knighthood, they excell in one handed combat.

• Ausburgian Edelknappe (id ausburgian_edelknappe)

With heavier armor and better one handed skills, they can master one to one fights.

• Vlandian Knight of the Lion (id vlandian_knight_of_the_lion)

Heavy cavalry with incredible stats, but also very hard to obtain. Like their squires, they are armed with a sword or mace and a lance.
