    Default Retrofit mod

    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.

    1.0 OVERVIEW
    ============

    The Retrofit Mod retrofits various Medieval II Total War (M2TW): Kingdoms features, improvements and bug fixes to vanilla M2TW. This mod can be used as it is, or as a base to create additional M2TW: Kingdoms mods (see section 5.0).

    The major features of the Retrofit Mod are:

    - Hotseat Campaigns.
    - Control AI Reinforcements.
    - Boiling Oil.
    - 4 Additional custom battle maps (Backwoods, Borderlands, Forts, Trenches).
    - Unit rebalancing.
    - AI Unit Recruitment tweaks.
    - Campaign AI Tweaks.
    - Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements.
    - Installer: The mod is packaged with an easy to use installer for computers with a valid installation of M2TW: Kingdoms.

    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

    Check the actual mod sub forum for mor info and ask other questions there if you cannot see what you need.
