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...
Playing since launch, just shy of 2000 hrs, experienced mod user, and 1.7.0 just has me scratching my head. Spent the week after work taking my time and getting my mod list up and running and stable and started a new playthrough tonight. First looter battle and I'm like "Um..what?". The new party and troop management systems are going to take some getting used to! Not complaining, just reminiscing on what it was like when I first started playing and not knowing WTF was going on lol. And I'm sure I'm just scratching the surface with the new changes.
