📋 About This Mod

This Installer includes a merger of Diplomacy and Pre-Battle Orders & Deployment (see Repository file:  http://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade/mods/2340).

Now with a real deployment phase - pre-battle positioning of divisions!

Requires Warband Script Enhancer 2. 8. 1, included in the installer.

This does NOT require Diplomacy to be installed already and you do NOT need the PBOD stand-alone installer or to have it installed separately. This is all you need.

If running Warband 1. 15x, you will also need to download the 1. 15x "compatibility patch" and install that after installing Diplo+PBOD.

An improved version of this patch was uploaded 13 August 2012 that requires no other work than installing it and using the shortcut as normal.

To use your Native or Diplomacy savegames, make a copy of your savegame folder (either Native or Diplomacy found in C:Users<USERNAME>Mount&Blade Warband Savegames ) and rename the copy "Diplo+PBOD".

You must run the mod through the desktop shortcut the installer creates.
