download  from moddb

Mod is developing by Russian team but will support English language soon. This topic is posted at the request of the author, he doesn't speak English (English isn't his native language). I will be glad to see translations in the other languages instead of English. We are thanking the autors of the OSP's used in this module, the list of them is under that text. If you don't like the using of your OSP in that module, you are able to write about that. If we forgot to mention somebody or something is written incorrect - write to us here and we'll correct it. Mod can be placed everywhere but only with the link to the homepage at commando.com.ua

Mod is desined for last Warband's versions and tells player about period of conquest of Siberia by Yermak. Players will be able to attend Yermak or join Siberian Khanate. It won't be a historical module down details and author don't actually plan to implement that. Some things aren't strictly historical, it is done to save the game balance. Global map, units' equipment and weapons meets with current epoch. There are also historial personalities of 1581—1585 years. Factions was created as prototypes of people living in Siberia in that historical period. There are Siberian Khanate, Rus and some local nomads' factions. There is new music dominated by Russian and Mongolian motifs. New scenes will give you an opportunity to take a look at stone fortress as well as old-Russian log cabins. Author plans to add Diplomacy module and some new quests. There is early version on the homepage but it has no english translation. You also can check some troop trees and a little video.

Features:
new world map
another factions(work in progress)

Author released the 1.0 version and wish you to have a nice playing. He's still need scenemakers for his team. We'll be glad to see your questions and wishes. This version supports English language. Please, report about bugs and glitches at the homepage of that module.

Very nice! I wish the author and you best of luck! 

Thank you a lot for your wishes, have a nice time playing that mod 

I've played it a bit and liked it so far, mainly with the Russians. I have one main piece of feedback. I think the Russian troop names should be changed. Right now they're very generic. On my first playthrough, I had no idea what the different kinds of footmen were. Perhaps name the top musketeer a Strelet and use other Latinised Russian words for the troops, so we can at least have some easier to identify troop names.

Also, Russian Riders aren't cavalry. They're on foot for some reason.
I'll assume they are and just missing their horses. I don't know a huge amount about Russia, but just discovered this preview. It's the wrong period, but it may contain some good ideas.
