Combat shout? Meh no ty as to first blood I like that ^^, much diff from the duels in SOD

I love this mod, the only thing that would make it better would be a better selection of ammo.

  Weren't there different types of ammo for cannons in earlier versions of the mod?Like explosive arrows?
  Anyway,I was thinking of more options than just besieging a castle/town.How about the option to sneak in and poison the food supply?The player spawns in a dark corner and has to kill some guards.He has a limited time to find the food supply,before the rest of the guards come in and surround him.A successful attempt would result in some of the defenders getting killed/knocked uncounscious.

* Spear Wall ability has been added.  When on foot and with a spear type weapon equipped hit b to brace the weapon on the ground.  Any cavalry charge against a braced spear will suffer horrible damage usually resulting in the death of the horse.  While braced you cannot move, attack, or defend, doing so will release the brace.  Troops that are also on foot and armed with a similar weapon will also periodically move into a spear wall stance if they have been given the Hold Position or Stand Your Ground orders. Damage from the spearwall is based on the speed of the horse.  If the horse is going slow enough it will take no damage at all.

* In field battles you can whistle for your horse.  If you dismount and run around killing people hitting the 'm' key will cause your horse to come to you.  Of course, if your horse is dead or you never had one to begin with then nothing will happen.

* When defeated, the player will be given a chance to make an escape based on their pathfinding skill

these might be very good additions with some tweaks eg

1)there might be a chance of the spear "breaking" (automatically dropped and unable to be picked up) if the horse is heavily armored or coming at full speed, this might will require all spermen to have a backup weapon

2)this should work only if "your" horse is not very far and there aren't enemies close

3)this should depend also from the lord army size and prisoners, guarding 10 prisoners with 1000 soldiers is diferent from guarding 1000 with 100 troops

I've been playing this mod for a LONG time by now, and really, there is only one thing I want to change. I believe players should have the ability to recruit bands of deserters who are not of their faction. Ex: I'm Swadian, so I can recruit all but Swadian-type Deserters.

Thanks

what about making troops and party stats also dependant on terrain? eg sarranid lords have +1 on pathfinding and troops +1 to athletics when moving or battling in desert and the opposite while in snow

other ammo types were buggy and inconsistent, not sure if xeno plans to add them again

would be too easy for a high level player, and totally implausible for the king of a nation to sneak into a town while his army is outside of it

i don't think the game can change unit abilities based on map location, but if that is possible its a cool idea

there are some mods where terrain areas matter for party speed, applying that to units shouldn't be too much work from that

[Epicrules]

Well that would be your party on the main map, but I don't think you can change unit stats inside of a certain terrain region, because that would mean that every other unit of that type in everyone else's army would get that bonus, even if they're not in the terrain region at the time.

thats an overland map tweek tho, you get the same thing when you move your party though a forrest, but regardless of map position i have never seen terrain change unit abilities in the battle screen

How about when a unit loses their horse they change to the infantry tab? That would be handy

Spear bracing would be an interesting addition that would make the game much more tactical, I think. I also really like the idea of calling your horse. Hopefully these can be implemented later on.
