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...
Finally bought Warband as people seem to be fanatic about it and I felt like I was missing out. After about an hour of play I realized one thing that might really ruin what seems to be a great game for me. I cannot die. This has really put a damper on the game for me. There are absolutely no death mechanics for the main character and really no way to actually "lose" as far as I can tell. No matter how badly I play, how many mistakes I make, given enough time I will eventually get back on my feet, raise an army, and "win". Has this not soured the experience for anyone else?
P.S. Can anyone recommend any good and balanced mods for the game?
