why was there a need to increase range of flintlocks? also why are unit upkeep so much higher compared to vanilla LME on higher difficulties, I thought there will be bigger armies not smaller ones

[adrians38]

Sound great, will try very soon new campaign, many thanks

[Bran Mac Born]

lordgeorgr141 Use the 40 unit armies version.

ING AWESOME! Thank you for updating my favorite mod!!! 2 questions though, what do you mean by "DO NOT USE THE LAUNCHER"?
You mean the LME launcher or the game launcher?
2nd, could you please update the mod with better musket sounds? The only thing I dislike about this mod is the crappy musket sound and the slow battle speed. Troops move really slow.
THANK YOU!

[NicolazDamian]

You rule by the way!!!

[Bran Mac Born]

Nicolaz: Correct do not use the LME Launcher

HOW TO START THE MOD
Start the La montée launcher, select your campaign & sub mods & start the game. Now close the game & launcher, Now add this to the top of your user script: mod Bran_LME_mod.pack;
Start the game in the normal way-DO NOT USE THE LME LAUNCHER
This way all your mods will load.

Hey first of all let me tell you this...THANK YOU AND AWESOME JOB! LME is my favorite mod and you updating it makes it even better! Everything is awesome, and it would be even better had it not be for two things I have noticed. First in the CTD issues, It happened twice within about 4 turns, and both incidents involved Grenzer units fighting the Ottoman in the Balkans. 2nd issue is the fact that Armed citizenry or armed mob no longer rout easily. In fact they even defeated an Austrian grenadier battalion one vs one in melee charge! LIKE WTF LOL. also, another incident occurred when an enemy armed citizenry unit was surrounded by 3 Austrian fusilier battalions and a battery unit using canister shot from close and behind, yet, the armed citizenry stood the ground for about 10 to 12 minutes! this are the issues I have noticed so far. again amazing job! I am only using this mod: Bran_LME_mod.pack.

[Bran Mac Born]

Well that seems like a balancing issue with the original mod. I did not do anything with units-just campaign ai and battle ai stuff with this sub mod. I can look into the units and see if there is a problem with them. Ok Found the problem was I had the Slaughter version vales in the the original version-changed back to the way it is supposed to be. Will upload new version of post one.

[Bran Mac Born]

UPDATE: Lowered morale buff for Ai per difficulty on regular version on post #1. It had the Slaughter Version values

[NicolazDamian]

You are awesome! Thank you very much!

[Filip2000]

Well, Bran I must say that your mod adds some real flavor to the game ; The current basic version has an small issue : the melee defense value for the Prinz Christian infantry regiment (Danemark) is more than 100. Besides I still observe the annoying behavior of the AI, that charges directly into my ranks. It would also be awesome to see some changes in the morale values on VH difficulty (I think that 15 for the AI line inf is to much compared with 7 of my troops).

Hi Bran,

do you think you can add a "Difficult Economy" script, like the one you did for Napoleon Darthmod?

And is your mod compatible with UAI or not?

Thanks in advance.

[Bran Mac Born]

DER- the different versions are all self contained versions- you only need one. Pick the type of campaign you want to play.

Thanks Bran, but this is the answer for my question in the Darthmod thread.

My questions are different

[Der Böse Wolf]

Hi Bran,

I am testing your mod and it is brilliant.

I wanted to ask you if you can maybe add the following option that you already developed for Darthmod:

- Volley fire: you say it improves the BAI.
- Fog of war on the battlefield.

Thanks in advance.

[Louis de Beaubourg]

Hi,

Would it be possible to transfer over certain settings from NTW3 that add to battle realism? E.g. units have to walk in column, fog of war so you have to scout ahead with cav, etc. ?

Thanks!

[LuciusSeptimius]

the bai just runs into my line and then just makes melee, it's no fun

[Bran Mac Born]

Lucius-have not worked on this in years will look into that.
