📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 1,463 endorsements and over 174k downloads — clearly fills a need for many players.
  • Saves time by auto-sorting troops and prisoners across multiple menus, reducing tedious micromanagement.
  • Configurable sort orders and hotkeys give you control over how your troops are organized.

⚠️ Cons

  • Description is cut off mid-sentence, leaving configuration details incomplete — you'll need to experiment or check the mod page.
  • Config merge only supports one previous version, so updating from older versions may require manual config reset.
  • Auto-upgrade only works for troops with a single upgrade path, so it won't help with branching upgrades.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Bannerlord players who lead large armies and are tired of manually sorting troops in the party screen. If you want to quickly see your troop composition and keep your forces organized, this mod is a solid QoL addition. Skip if you prefer to manually manage every unit or rarely use the party view.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 5 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • After installing, load your game and open the Party view — sorting happens automatically, and you can press Ctrl+S to re-sort manually.
  • Set up your preferred sort orders in the config file (found in the mod's folder) and use Ctrl+1-9 to switch between them.
  • If you're updating from an older version, the mod will create a default config if none is found, but you may need to reconfigure your sort orders.
