#Viking conquest troop trees mod
VC has a great troop and item structure, but with a few glaring problems-this mod aims to fix those while leaving everything else intact.ģ) Document every change, let the player be fully informed about what they are installing. Try it in your existing vanilla VC campaign, remove it if you decide you don't like it, no need to ever restart.Ģ) Fix the existing balance, don't try to create a new balance. This submod replaces all body armour except female dress and robes in the game + some minor tweaks.ġ) 100% saved game compatibility.
Unofficial retexture for Viking Conquest. Probably not story-mode compatible as player-created bandit parties could easily interfere with story elements. Hopefully it will make playing as a bandit a little more interesting, and maybe more viable in the long term. New painted/tattooed bodies for the Pictish Alban faction, 12 male and 1 female.Ī small mod that will attempt to give a few new options and gameplay for bandit players. The only Thing that bothered me a little, the bright and plain Shield Patterns, i dont mind the standard ones, they are beautiful,īut the painted versions with the heraldry layer over it,so i´ve made a simple mod by toning down the colours a little bit, and throw a wooden texture layer over them Hi gentleman,first, i love viking conquest,and its nearly flawless.

popularity with Pagans so that berserkers seek you out horrible reputation so that outlaws flock to you good relationships with cities and castles So, ways of getting high level infantry troops in Viking Conquest are: It's good for slowly nudging Intelligence based companions to higher levels, and that's about it. Sure, it is a nice extra, but most of your training will be still from combat. The Training skill is of limited use, because it goes only to 5, and even if you get it as high as it will go on all eight of your companions, you will be only training about three or four Tier IVs out of 100 tier IIIs, per day. Even if you are playing a bloodthirsty raider, and your relations with cities are bad, you should not be using the trainer - you should be recruiting outlaws. So, by the time you can hire a trainer, you can just recruit troops equal to his best efforts. Once you have improved your relationship with the cities where you intend to recruit, and you most certainly should, you can recruit Tier III infantry, in numbers going up to 30 or 40. I only recruit infantry Tier II in the very early game, because any city or castle offers it out of the gate. The trainer is useless, because he only trains infantry (swordsmen or spearmen) and only to Tier III. The refuge trainer in Viking Conquest is absolutely useless. He will only train troops at the bottom of your refuge's garrison list, so if you're training say, spearmen it is a good idea to leave at least one spearman in your garrison, otherwise the newly trained spearmen will go straight to the bottom of the list and jam up the training. When talking to the trainer if you say "yes" to alternate promotions he will create skirmishers, if you say "no" he will train spearmen. Remember that to start training you need to actually walk around your camp and talk to him first. And they tend to take a very long time to start training in vanilla.Īlso, like others have mentioned with a level 2 refuge you can hire a trainer who will slowly train troops in your refuge for you. So you'll need to be a level higher than that to start training them. Even peasants start out at around level 12.

Because i don't see any training experience in the bottom left Like warband does Troops are a much higher level in VC.
