Favourite mods

I'd be interested to know everybody's favourite mods - the ones you always seem to go back to, no matter how many others you may try

Please give reasons/explanations/details so people know why you like it so much, and screenshots would be cool (although not essential)

And don't say Native. This is for mods only. Everyone knows Native is awesome - thats a given

Personally, my favourite mod is Lords of War (dark age britain)

Its got a great map, a good set of factions, lots of cool shiny items and it looks absolutely amazing. But the main reason I like it so much is because its so fleshed out, with loads of dialogue, characters, towns and villages - everything seems to have been changed to make it more immersive. Quite a few mods seem to be a bit rushed or unfinished, with unchanged content that sticks out like a sore thumb and can detract a bit from the feel of the mod (like unchanged dialogues or characters, or battle maps that don't fit with how they look on the campaign map). Lords of war just seems really finished and complete.

I highly recommend it to everyone

Here's a screeny to show the funky shields and equipment:

My favorite mod was the only that actually got me all excited.

The Tripartition

For M&B v.894 promotional video:

The mod is set on a huge map of eastern China. There are tons of new items like brand new armour, weapons, foods, and horses. The buildings in the cities are textured Chinese style, so it gives you the feeling of the Chinese culture.
