Retrofit mod

[AU4Brent]

I downloaded the retrofit mod a few days ago, and I can't tell any difference at all. What does the retrofit change or add? The only change I've noticed is that the pikemen (Tercio) seem to be bugged. It says they're bracing, but they stand there with their pikes pointed straight up.

Retro has trenches? Who what where? Anyone ever seen a trench?

An earthen work custom battle map -- you cannot dig the trenches anymore than you can build a castle. It is not a buildable fortification in the regular campaign (at least I do not know how to do so). I would love to do so. They are a defender archer heaven.

The biggest difference is the unit rebalancing. As you go through your units' stats, most of them will have changed. Boiling oil is the other biggie. If you control the gates of a city or castle, enemies will get doused from time to time with oil when they are in the gate area.

As stated above, you need Kingdoms as well -- it mods M2TW vanilla to use Kingdoms .exe
