Sea Raider killed by Marnid

Borcha knocked unconscious by Sea Raider

You'll see,

Sea Raider killed by Jasonfri13th

Arch knocked unconscious by Sea Raider ( I wouldn't want a screenshot of that though. )

Remember to back up your troops file before hand. So in assumption, this IS compatible with other variants. Also, all troops(except vonmistont) have the weapons set according to their preferences.

Plans for next updateBeta v.1)
Bug fixes N/A
Sparring Matches 0%
Better custom kingdom name feature100% There is a problem with it at the momment, so I'll work it out later. It DOESN'T work but it's a new preview for the future.
More dialog 25%

Meh too lazy to make them stronger right now, even if it`s extremely easy. lol!




Futures:
Having the ability to fight along side von Mistont and others.
New dialogs(not fully done)
Why should your kingdom be named after your first town or castle? Now, your kingdom name, is YOURdecision!(just make sure before you capture something, it's the name you want it to be. Theirs no changing afterwards)
Want to learn some history? Why not ask your Historian?(He can sell you books, but his dialogs aren't finished yet.)
In a seige, having 500 men fight over who goes up a ladder is illogical.There are now two ladders in every castle you seige.(Thanks to the Siege Ladder Project)
Why should you walk around and get recruits for your garasions? Now you can send recruiters to get troops for you!(Thanks to hessuu, you should only attempt to hire them once you have conquered a castle/town)
Thanks to Arch3r for the bridge mod, fighting on a bridge, looks like your fighting on a bridge!
Now, you can ask a lord to duel whenever you want!(Thanks to MartinF)

Known Bugs:

Yay!

lol! Done some... hope I can finish the rest!

Yaaay 

I didn't really expect you'd take me in this version, but anyway, thanks I like the idea behind the mod (forum members as companions, kewl !), but I'll probably wait for a more complete version before downloading, with bugfixes, modified conversations and the other promised features

Nevertheless, promising so far.

Thanks! I have access to the internet at night, but I probably won't be able to do the dialogues yet. Though I love the positive response I got from them. I'll get to them as soon as I can though.

DO want =O


can you add me as a companion too =D

Sent you pm awhile back. Remember?

This is really cool.

Neat Idea, I mean.

Is there any way for me to get in there? =P

Probably not I'm afraid. Maybe in the feature I'll have more spots open for help? Right now there isn't really a need for a team, hence not many people,(except the ones in the credits), can get in by helping. But, since I'm new to the whole mod thing, I'll probably have spots open later. 

Lol, I just meant to make "Saint Of Blood" a companion =P

But okay.

Would you mind putting my name in the mod?I've been playing M&B for years and I would be honored to have my username in this excellent mod.

So... it's some extra companions named after forum-users?

No "extra", but rather, "replacing" companions. Arch's mod replaces the original companions (like Rolf, Lezalit, etc.) with figures named after forum members who participate in the brainstorming/development of "Sword of Damocles" mod one way or another. Those who are "invited" into Arch's mod are allowed to set up their own skills, starting equipment and background story.

Currently, Arch is away on a vacation to my knowledge and he can access internet only during the night, so he won't be too active until he comes back home...

Lol thanks for that MorrisB! I usually only get to go around at 7 but am on earlier,( if my cousin is done hogging it  ), sometimes.

Anyways, This IS just a alpha mind everyone. I probably will give more spots to people who have helped with brainstorming through-out the mod's progression. Anyways, as MorrisB said, I'm on vacation right now, so probably nothing will get done or added or anything! So please be pacient.(or how ever you spell it.  )

Anyways, if you would like to ask me something, please send it in a pm.

I finally figured out how to work everything in python! lol! So I should be able to have new features implemented soon. Then I'll work on dialog, raising costs, etc.

So close.

I should have been done a long time ago. I'm just too lazy to put in all the dialogs.  I'll try to work something out for a download though. It'll only not have dialogs. The rest is done.

The upload is done! Enjoy! Please post comments and suggestions.

Hi guys , calll me dumb , but how i read there is the custom kingdom name option , but cannot find it anywhere in the game , can anyone help?

When you conquer a kingdom, the kingdom's name will be your name. I'm working on adding an option to change it at anytime.
