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...
Help!!! Can’t attack groups of bandits, (even when it’s part of a mission like: “army of poachers”.) it says this when on the troop planning formation screen: “To start mission, you need at least one formation of horse archers.” But I have multiple horse archers… and the ready button is grayed out.
Greetings. I need assistance from someone more knowledgeable on this game. I just started a month or two ago, & basically my issue is that, when I go to attack bandit groups, or even attack poachers like in the mission “Army of Poachers,” the ready button is grayed out. Basically I get the attack or send troops menu, and if I click attack, on the screen where you set you troops formations, the ready button is grayed out, saying, “To start mission, you need at least one formation of horse archers.” But I do indeed have a few/multiple horse archers, so I don’t know what to do to fix this. Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong..? Anyone have any tips or ideas to fix this issue? Anyone experienced this themselves? (I’m on campaign.) I could attack bandits fine when I first started, and then all of the sudden a few days ago, it started doing this bs to me almost every time I try to attack bandits. So the only way I can attack is by simulation/ “send in troops.” Which gives less...
