✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 904 endorsements and over 67k downloads, showing solid trust.
- Adds real tactical depth by letting you control archer positioning beyond vanilla orders.
- RBM compatible, so it works with popular realism mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires learning multiple hotkeys (F11, F2+F8, LEFT ALT, CTRL+P) which might feel overwhelming at first.
- Marker system might be complex for casual players who just want quick archer placement.
- No explicit mention of compatibility with other mods beyond RBM, so potential conflicts with other gameplay overhauls.
For Bannerlord players who love tactical command and want finer control over archer placement in battles. It's great for those who use RBM and want to integrate strategic points into their playstyle. Skip if you prefer vanilla simplicity or don't want to manage marker groups.
