First off, this mod is incredible. Huge thumbs up!
One observation though -- compared to native, it is much easier to assemble a manhunter band early on. There are LOTS more manhunters and, as a result, a lot more manhunters available to rescue and add to your warband early on.
Combine that with the fact that manhunters can up your prisoner management by 3 = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ early.
Once you have a ton of $$$ invested everywhere, then you can afford to field a strong warband and then it goes from there.
I only had 3 in prisoner management, but with the manhunters I was up to 6, which meant I could carry 30 prisoners per time compared to 15.
In addition, having more mid-tier troops available for capture meant that those 30 prisoners were generally bringing me in $4-5k per pop. Two trips of prisoners = a dyeworks.
I've never ramped up investments this quickly and am now in a position to start going after a strong army quite early in the game.
Just wondering if this is intended and also if there is any way to tweak the number of manhunters on the map? I'd rather see them be spice in my warband, or take more effort to assemble, rather than just being able to spam them early on.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts
