Hi all!! A few weeks ago I asked here how you wanted your infantry to fight ( old post ). The top answer by far was "make them hold the line", so that's what I built. It was called Better Infantry AI back then, now it's Hold the Line , and it's out as a beta. Available in Nexus Mods. What it does: No more moshpit: soldiers keep their place in the line and step in and back a little instead of turning into one big blob. AI formations that make contact switch to a charge, so both sides fight the same way. Shields in the front rank: shield and spear first, then other shields, then spears and pikes, then everyone else. Works in shield walls too. No more falxmen eating javelins and arrows in the front while the shield guys wait in the back. Rear ranks fight with spears: the second rank thrusts past the guy in front instead of hitting their back and getting stunned. AI spearmen also keep the spear out more instead of always pulling the sidearm. Deep format...
I normally don't play mods other than Diplomacy (Native is hard enough for me as it is), but I'm thinking of trying out one of the lesser-known ones (so, not the ones in the sidebar).
I've played around with Silverstag once, and I liked it. I prefer mods that are somewhat "finished". They don't have to be still actively developed, but they should at least run with the latest Warband version and not riddled with unplayable bugs.
Any of these mods have English troop names? That's the biggest thing turning me off from trying mods.
