This mod adds the Detachment special rule for the Empire from TT to Total War. The Empire was one of the first factions in this series, but detachments are still missing. This is my version of this faction mechanic.

This is a rework of my WH2 mod:

State Troops do provide leadership, reload and charge bonus buffs for detachments nearby.
Detachments are expandable, half the unit size of a regular regiment and have low leadership on their own. Missile detachments can't skirmish.

Detachments:

- Swordsmen
- Halberdiers
- Spearmen
- Spearmen (Shields)
- Crossbowmen
- Handgunners
- Militia

So what is their role on the battlefield?
The detachments can easily be overrun. their men count is small and the leadership is low. so for themselves, the detachments are wasted. The Empire uses them for supporting "State Troops". In TT every ST can be supported by max 2 detachments. With a halberdier detachment, your swordsmen main get AP dmg for example. Other usage can be a charge reaction. You can position the detachments in front so they get the initial charge and your main regiment gets fresh and unharmed in melee. if you have a wide front-line, detachments on the flank can easily flank out enemies. Detachments beside missile troops can secure flank and back.........at least for a while

I can have a regiment of spearmen instead...?!
Sure. this mod only fills the gaps in your ranks. and if you run out of money in campaign or custom battles, you can get some cheap fodder until your economy (budget) is on the right way. Esp. in custom battles, this mod works nice.
