Other Re-Vamped Factions???

**Phil of Loreauville** · July 17, 2009, 12:54 PM

Been playing theReal Recruitment 1.3/Real Combat 1.8/CBUR/BTFB/BGR iv Compilation and really enjoying playing the Byzantines.
I've been wondering, "Are there any other sub-mods that concentrate on a particular faction? Like the CBUR, that can be played as a Stainless Steel Sub Mod, hopefully with the above compilation?

Well, there is Knight Calidor's Knights Templar submod, and Battle for the Baltic (which focusses on Russia and Teutonic Order, you should check it out). The latter is included in RR/RC compilation and I believe some units of the former too. There are mods (no submods) focussing on Lithuania (included in SS 6.1) and Hungary (Magyar Mod, not included). Other than these I don't know.

Edit: new version of RR/RC compilation will include new Mongols from the Rusichi mod.

Cumans too

plus some of the Novgorod and Kievan units, ideally would like to use the Vladimir units in place of Kievan units in a 1370 campaign.

Vladimir units? Never heard of those... Where can I find them PB?

Rusichi mod.

Did a little looking around.
Am I correct assuming that this mod will be included in the next Real Recruitment 1.3/Real Combat 1.8/CBUR/BTFB/BGR iv Compilation update?

You know, that compilation really needs an easier name to identify it.

Just some of the superb mongol, cuman, and russian unit models, which will also require changes to RR to fit them in etc.

You're right the compilation really needs a new name.

How 'bout ---- Point Blank's Stainless Steel Compilation?
Or something along those lines?

So, the CBUR is about the only reworked faction that can be used with your compilation?
Bummer.
I realize that reworking a faction must be an enormous undertaking, especially to the extent of the CBUR.
It's just that I decided to try someone other than the Romans in my last campaign.
Let's just say the Germans aren't as "colorful" as the Romans.

Battle for the Baltic reworked the Novgorod and Teutonic Order rosters and they too are included in the RR/RC roster. The next version of BftB will have totally new rosters for Novgorod, Kievan Rus, the Mongols and will introduce Sweden as a faction. A version will be released for the RR/RC compilation.

Also, note that almost every faction had units added to it, especially late-era units, during the progress of the mod, and also many units were made available for more than their original SS faction list. Every faction is quite different due to how RR is set up, where factions have specific strengths and weaknesses in different unit types that affects their replacement rates. There is also the AOR that enables Locals to be recruited by any faction.
