📋 About This Mod
This mod adds a new 15th century Type XVIIIa sword with a hollow ground blade and a Type V "fishtail" pommel.
The origin of the sword is either Flemish, Burgundian or Italian.
The original ceremonial sword can be found in the collection of the Cluny Museum, Paris:
https://www.musee-moyenage.fr/collection/oeuvre/epee-duc-de-milan.html
The original sword is a bastard sword while in Kingdom Come: Deliverance there are only two categories, short & long swords.
The mod comes in two variants and you can choose whether you want the sword to act like a longsword or shortsword in-game.
The only difference between the two is that the longsword variant requires a minimum Strength: 10,
and the shortsword requires a minimum Agility: 10 instead.
The two variants use the same unique item ID and you can switch between them at will by swapping the mod folder.
Installation
1. Create a Mods folder in the game's install path if it doesn't exist
2. Extract the mod archive to a temporary folder
3. Copy either Duke_Sword__longsword or Duke_Sword__shortsword but not both to your Mods folder
Example for the Steam version of Kingdom Come Deliverance:
%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\Steam\steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance\Mods\Duke_Sword__longsword
%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\Steam\steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance\Mods\Duke_Sword__shortsword
Usage
The sword can be bought from the Rattay Swordsmith. The shop must restock before the item becomes available.
This may take a few in-game days.
Alternatively, open the game's console by pressing ~ and type the add_duke_sword command to add it to your inventory.
