Updated bugreport. The norse axemen for sweden and norway are transparent when upgraded in armor. denmarks works fine.
Is there a quick way to fix this, for example disable sweden and norways ability to upgrade armor for norse axemen? somewhere in some file..
Swedish battery captains transparent aswell
cheers!

Question! In this mod what are the 'Crusaders states'? Are they still the OotKT and The Kingdom of Jerusalem or have they been merged into one like in 6.2? I have the Kingdoms of Heaven mod installed and I just cant go back to playing the stupid Templars.

EDIT: Ah, screw it. I want those new Kievan Rus units!

Downloading and uninstalling as we speak.

Also, what are Sweden's best units besides those that they share with Denmark and Norway?

No I haven't touched any crusader factions so yes there is still the Templars and the KoJ

Also, what are Sweden's best units besides those that they share with Denmark and Norway?

Infantry and ranged units are their strongest suit. Their cavalry is weaker than other factions'. The late era Allmoge units (Allmogesoldater: polearms, Allmogeskyttar: crossbows) will serve you very well once you get them.

Aguirre: Thanks for reporting that. Looks like WinMerge screwed me again! I'll take a look when I get home from work and should be able to advise you what to do once I have my files in front of me

Oh I probably should've mentioned somewhere along the way that Landsnektar are now spearmen, not swordsmen. This is because Sweden now get Ledung Swordsmen as well

Hi, I am starting the Battle for the Baltic campaign as the Teutonic Order and noticed they have two cities named Marienburg. Is that by design?

Yes it is

[bɑne]

As I just looked it up I thought I might quote it here:

The names Marienburg or Frauenburg were given to many towns in German-speaking countries in the Middle Ages.
The names usually originated in the construction of a fortified (hence -burg) chapel, church, or monastery dedicated to the Virgin Mary, also descriptively called Frau (meaning, here, Lady, Our Lady). There are many fortresses, castles, and towns with the name Marienburg.

Well, it looks like I'll need to start modding again!

[Aguirre]

they're badass!

Yeah!

[Caesar Clivus]

Uploaded a hotfix to fix the problems with the Ledung Axemen and Swedish artillery officers. And yes the hotfix is savegame compatible

[Violator]

Hello C.C.!! Apart from the usual praise on your excellent work i would like to report a small bug!! Mounted Druzhina or mounted junior Druzhina (cannot remember the exact name at the moment!!) from the starting rebel garrison inside Viborg have no skins (silver surfers) and they have peasant unit info card!! Thanks in advance for the fix and of course again +rep!!

[Caesar Clivus]

They actually shouldn't be there. They're not part of the starting garrison so they must've been recruited. Easy to fix. Thanks mate

[hippacrocafish]

Absolutely terrific mod Caesar, I'm glad that I downloaded it!

The rebalanced units and the inclusion of older mods (Like the cities and castles mod) was just icing on the cake.

I can't wait for the next BftB. I hope it has that updated Cuman Khanate unit roster that you mentioned in that thread I made.

Well, it looks like I'll need to start modding again!

As you may see above I'm a fan of your KoH mod, if you and Caesar worked together to get rid of the neigh unplayable Knights Templar and add your new crusader units to the KoJ roster I think that would make for one awesome mod.
