B.A.R.D. - Khuzait Army Overhaul

In 1 collection by Shas'la
B.A.R.D. - Bannerlord Armies ReDone - AIO
6 items
Description
A complete overhaul of the Khuzait Army with the aim of giving them a unique identity and bringing them up to par with other empires. Extreme care and attention to detail was taken to make them look good, functional, but this one might be slightly less accurate from a historical standpoint. There are also new units, new items and stat fixes/changes included.

TL;DR
  • Awesome reskins
  • New units
  • New items
  • Balanced Khuzaits

--------------------

Background

Bringing you my sixth mod in the series with the final faction overhaul. I figured I would give them the same treatment as I gave the other factions. The inspiration for the troops are armies of the 10th-12th century Steppe Tribes with a Mongol focus.

The mod completely overhauls the entire Khuzait troop tree, nobles included.

There are also a lot of balancing changes here to round off the mod.

The units look much better in my opinion, but please understand that this is just my personal taste, and will stay as such. Your constructive criticism is still welcome.

Lastly, this is a work in progress, and there will be a lot of updates and small tweaks as TaleWorlds updates the game and better modding tools are developed and released. Having said that, I think it's already in a really good place, check out screenshots and see for yourself.

--------------------

Compatibility

Compatible and tested on v1.0.0 & e1.9.0.

Save Game compatible. (If you're adding this to an existing campaign though, it might take a while until the new troops appear for lords and as higher rep village recruits, but they will be available to the player instantly if you're upgrading from the Khuzait Nomad)

The mod is also compatible with most other troop overhauls, as long as they don't modify Khuzait troops and uses the module system for easy install/uninstall.

FAQ

The mod is not working?
If you have the latest version of the game, subscribed to the mod, enabled it in the launcher and my mods are below the native modules and you don't crash, the mod is working.

My units don't have the [Bard] prefix as in the screenshots?
Yes, that is how it's intended. I use that prefix for my own testing in my own game, but when I upload to the Steam Workshop I remove it. In your game, the units WILL NOT have the [Bard] prefix

Help, I crashed?
If you think you crashed because of my mod, send me the crash report so I can take a look at it. Otherwise I have no way of knowing why you crashed.

Is it compatible with X, Y or Z
I created this with maximum compatibility in mind, but I can't make it compatible and test it with every mod out there. Please try it out before asking.

Is it compatible with RBM?
Yes, with caveats. It is compatible with their AI and Arena modules. It is NOT compatible with their Troop Overhaul (for obvious reasons) and only semi-compatible with the Combat Module. I would recommend sticking with only AI and Arena. Also, see above.

Balance seems off?
While I do my best to test units one on one to make sure nothing roflstomps other units, I'm just one man, and can't test every unit against every other unit in thousands of scenarios, so I might have missed something. If you think a unit is OP, or a faction's combined arms power is way too strong let me know. Please send me a detailed list of army compositions so I can test that scenario and see what I can do about it.

X unit should use this or that, could you change it?
Please provide your reasoning in the comments, with historical sources if possible, and I'll consider the change if it makes sense.

This mod sucks, I hate it?
That's ok, I can't make it appeal to everyone. No hard feelings.

--------------------

Uninstallation

Just click unsubscribe (but see known issues below) or manually delete the "KhuzaitArmyRedone folder".

--------------------

Known Issues

If you uninstall the mod while you have my modded troops in your save (which you will if you use the mod) the game will crash. Sorry about this, but the way troop modding works now, there is no way for me to prevent this. As soon as there is a solution, I'll do my best implement it.

im talking about the game not working whithout the mods instaled

@Mother Teresa no idea what this dude is talking about never had an issue running the B.A.R.D mods
Shas'la  [author] 5 Apr, 2023 @ 12:41am 
@mother teresa what are you talking about? None of my mods remove anything, only edit troop trees totally independent from the vanilla stuff. If you game doesn't load up it's likely caused by something else.
Shas'la  [author] 5 Apr, 2023 @ 12:40am 
@Axem Black because my knowledge on the steppe tribes from this time period is a bit lacking and some of the terminology and general looks I used might not be accurate.

do not download any or the B.A.R.D mod they will get rid of files and make the game not load up
