DIFFICULTY

- Reforged is balanced for players of all difficulties and maintains the difficulty options of vanilla Battle Brothers.

- It is recommended that players new to Reforged have a reasonable understanding of vanilla game mechanics and have survived at least one crisis.

INSTALLATION

- Follow our Installation Guide. Requires a fair few framework and utility mods. MSU will prompt you on the main menu if you're missing one.

- Highly recommended to use with:

- MSU Launcher

- Plan Your Perks

- Requires a new game! Not save-game compatible.

COMPATIBILITY

- Reforged is built from the ground up to be as compatible with as many mods as possible. However, Reforged is a massive mod that makes integral changes to many systems, so some mods may have a hard incompatibility. Mods that affect the same systems we do are more likely to be incompatible.

- We recommend experiencing Reforged without other mods first and familiarizing yourself with that experience before making adjustments or adding more.

- Not compatible with other overhaul mods such as Legends and Sellswords.

- See Installation Guide for recommended and compatible mods.
