📋 About This Mod

4. 0 UPDATE RELEASED, CHECK THE CHANGELOG FOR DETAILS

-More than 25 new armors added for the player to obtain, armors are obtainable through quests, crafting or trading.

-Mod is manually translated into English, Czech, Polish and has half-manual half-machine translation for German.

The mod automatically detects which language you are playing in, if the language is not detected it will default to English. (If you want to translate the mod into your language please reach out!)

-Some NPCs also wear new armor based on their rank or position.

-Some NPCs also have different equipment based on their status and rank. (For example new crossbowmen units have crossbows and one handed swords)

-Faction leaders have unique armor, those are Lord Hagen, Lord Andre and Lee.

-Every armor is added on top of original ones, meaning vanilla armors are not replaced in any way.

-Ranged playthrough expanded, now you can choose armors which have less protection but give bonus to bow and crossbow skills for your guild.

-Fully compatible with all texture mods.

-High Compatibility with other mods, to the point where the game checks which mod you have installed and adjusts so the experience is fully balanced between the two. More information in the "COMPATIBILITY" section.

-Some armors added are guild neutral, good for a guildless playthrough

-All helmets are removable for every armor, even vanilla ones. You can put down the visor on the paladin armors as well.

-Mod can be safely uninstalled at any point of your playthough without breaking your saves.

-If you want to make a suggestion for adding Balance to your favourite mod, or adding a new feature feel free to message me either here, on Nexusmods or on my discord (where i am most active, profile name is "romanez78")

-I plan to make more mods like this, for example adding an expanded variety of Sect Camp armors, or Old camp armors or new weapons in the future so look out for those :).
