so i get this mod and begin playing.
it is good all around, however this bothers me a whole lot.
I was playing under the imperial state. From villages I had about 25 recruits and 5 grunts after a minor skirmish.
Then I ran into a party of gun toting bandits, 19 of them. I thought nothing of it, as there is only 19 of them (in native/most other mods, that was a sure sign of victory). I fight them for a bit before I realize I will end up their prisoner and lose all my soldiers.
So I do
Then I go back to the villages, pissed. Gather 30 men again and go out again. This time I will avoid those assholes. I run into the exact same party that kicked my ass earlier. 15 dudes with 12 of my grunts as prisoners. I attack them and only lose 7 men, gaining 12 grunts. After this battle, every recruit became a grunt and I even had some infantry and a guard.
Confident, I head back to the villages to make my army even stronger. I notice im being chased by a much faster party of gun toting bandits. Ass. I manage to get to my fife and get 10 recruits. It is 42 of my dudes against 20 of theirs. Easy stuff, right?
I get my **** pushed in hardcore. All my guys were knocked out/dead and by the end it was me against 4 of them. I shot 3 of them and was finished off by the other one. Again, all my men were gone. I thought I could find them after I run away since it would be one guy. Turns out it was somehow 9 guys (with a ****load of my former men as prisoners).
I really think the bandits should travel in much smaller groups/be weakened at the start of the game
I suggest give them much weaker swords. I lost most my guys due to their huge sword rather than to their guns.
I was just starting a new game before being molested by them repeatedly.
