Peasant Militia (1.2) - Nomad

(This is a port of my first-ever mod over to Nomad, because why not! It's a simple one for sure, but if it interests you, feel free to check out my profile!)

Adds a new T0, entry-level faction to Crystal Hunt, as well as the sandbox wave book - the Peasant Militia!

A simple conscripted militia of Eradian commoners, largely armed with working and farming tools, commanded by Eradian officers. They are approximately on the same level of difficulty as the Outlaws. The mod also comes fully integrated into Survival.

This was my first foray into modding, and mostly just a simple proof of concept. Plenty more lore-friendly, far more in-depth mods can be found on my profile!

Please comment any suggestions :)

LORE

Upon the onset of the Crystal Hunt, when the deepest of the Dalgarian ruins began revealing themselves, factions all over Eraden swiftly mobilized to out-compete one another for the powerful secrets within. Chiefly, one of the major players was the Kingdom of Eraden itself, sending troops all over to secure abandoned forts as bases of operations out in the badlands to track down these ruins.

However, with the Crystal Hunt in full force, the Eradian army was already drawn incredibly thin. With having to crack down on the rise of Corruption (sorcery) in the populace, take out Outlaw crystal smuggling rings and mysterious hidden sorcerer cults, fight back the encroaching Wildfolk tribes, and not even to mention reinforcing the borders and coasts against the external threats of Rakta and Khar-tib...maintaining all of Eraden's duties was becoming an impossible task.

To remedy this, the Queen demanded a mandatory draft - battle-capable men and women would be forced into compulsory service into Her Majesty's army. Common farmers, cobblers, seamstresses, woodsmen, miners...even imprisoned sorcerers lined up for the gallows were dragged away from their lives and families and forced under the command of Eradian military officers. With minimal training and whatever "weapons" they could scrounge up from their homes, all sorts of commonfolk were thrust out to patrol and defend old abandoned coastal forts, and give their lives in service to Eraden's pursuits in the Crystal Hunt.

Little do they know, however...they're in your way.
