Hello Taleworlds community, as you know our mod is running on the 22nd MM server, if you cannot get on it is either because it is being used for testing, or has been scheduled for an organised fight.
May have deleted the pics and videos, so please post them up again sorry
If you want to use this mod on your server, PM me or Beaver.
Please remember this is still a beta, so post your suggestions/thoughts and fun times up here
Troop selection and Item Explanation
Right, instead of going for the three troops/buying armour that native has, we opted for a different style that would make it more realistic.
First we have 8 troops per faction, with the standard layout going like this:
light, line, gren, cav x3 (various types), Standard Bearer All of which change from faction to faction.
The line infantry for each faction will not cost anything, it will all be default.
The more elite troops, and others, will cost a lot more, and will only be accessible once you have built up enough cash. (this is mostly to keep everyone from going random units, and having no line infantry, which would be silly, please remember that line infantry are in no way the weakest unit, we have balanced them all so none should be OP.
Note that the standard layout is actually the troop selection for the Kingdom of Sweden. We had to compromise, so sometimes Grenadiers are shoved into Line Infantry. We hope to include a larger troop selection in the future. Note that some of our factions have similar general coat colours. Light Infantry are easily distinctive because of either their headwear or their uniforms. Their weapons should be different from Line Infantry weapons too. Note that Light Infantry would certainly be more expensive and more vulnerable to cavalry, so teamwork is key.

3. Rename your new copy of native to "mm mod" (without the "")
4. Extract the downloaded archive into the Modules folder.

Surrendering rules in game:
Basically, if you are the last dude left or surrounded, you can surrender
Of your own accord
And they either assemble a firing squad, a kicking squad, or an executioner.
The executioner should be a sapper by the way
And you get killed. Honourably.
With respect.
Rules:
1. You shall not disgrace your colours by using them to fight. Instead, you must rely on your comrades and on kicking.
2. You shall protect the colours with your life.
3. You shall accept the surrender of prisoners.
4. You shall lay down your arms upon surrendering. Officers may give parole, and may keep their sword, but not use it.
5. You shall obey your orders.
6. You shall not mount horses as infantry unless you are an officer.
7. Cuirassiers are discouraged in normal play. As for special scenarios, full cuirassier teams are allowed if that's the scenario agreed upon the approval of a team member.
8. You shall wear a uniform at all times.
9. You are restricted to one firearm only unless you are a cavalryman, where you are allowed a brace of pistols. However, cavalry pistol ammunition will be much more expensive.
10. You shall not go “rambo” in a line battle unless you are assigned to a skirmisher or scout unit.
11. You shall form line in a line battle unless you have more than 7 men in your team, upon which you may send out skirmishers or a scout.

Basically, I don't want the Add-on collection clogged full of posts and my comments thread on MFB is practically empty. Napoleonic Units Add-on Pack v.2
This pack will include all of my add-ons and will take priority over any other add-on. I will try to make it compatible with any other add-on, and as always, it is not entirely historical.
Factions:
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
Consisting of good, well trained men, the British are a well-rounded faction. They call upon Gentry and German expatriates as Cavalry, and can use Line Infantry from allied factions in the field. British Light Infantry armed with the Baker Rifle can pick off enemy troops at ease. Scottish Highlanders and British Foot Guard act as shock infantry.
Focus= Line Infantry, Light Infantry, Elite Infantry.
Sub-Factions: Prussia, Brunswick, Hanover, Nassau, Scotland. Portugal in v.3 First French Empire
A well trained army of experienced men, the French specialize in cavalry, but their infantry is also decent. Fielding the famed Guard and Cuirassiers, top-tier French armies are a real challenge. Cuirassiers and Dragoons make up the heavy cavalry, with Lancers from France and Poland filling the medium cavalry. Hussars support the main force. Polish and Corsican troops also aid the French.
Focus= Melee, Guards, Heavy Cavalry.
Sub-Factions: Duchy of Warsaw, Corsica.
Tsardom of Russia
Fielding large armies of rugged troops, the Russians excel at close combat. Although unlike the Militia, National Guard and Landwehr of the other factions, the Opolenchie militia carry spears, excelling at close combat versus the shorter bayonets. However, the Russian infantry are not the best at ranged. Strelsy and Cossacks easily make up for this on foot, and the Cuirassiers and Dragoons on horseback.
Focus= Melee, Irregulars, Overwhelming force.
No Sub-Factions.
Empire of Austria
Fielding mediocre armies of German militiamen mainly, the Landwehr can hold their ground for sometime if backed up by Fusiliers. Hungarian Grenadiers excel at close combat, and are good at range, but are a rarity. What the Austrians excel at is Light Infantry and Cavalry. Having two of some of the best light troops in the mod, Grenzers and Uhlans, the Austrians can pack a surprise punch. The flexibility of the Grenzers as both Light Infantry and Line Infantry, and the experienced Uhlans, arguably the best Lancers if you don't include the Polish Vistulas, can swing the side of battles. Cuirassiers also join the fray, riding boot to boot, and riding down their foes.
Focus= Overwhelming force, Light Infantry.
Sub-Factions: Hungary, Croatia/Transylvania.
Kingdom of Sweden
A relatively small army, with little variation, Swedish Heavy Cavalry and Light Infantry are good at their job. As one of only two troops armed with a rifle, Finnish Jaegers are experienced and as deadly as their British counterparts. The Swedish have a reputation of being good horsemen, but the Swedish armies may have slightly deteriorated since the days of Gustavus Adolphus. However, the Swedish Cuirassiers, Dragoons and Mounted Guards can challenge the French heavies.
Focus= Heavy Cavalry, Rounded infantry.
Sub-Factions: Finland.
Here's the "Focus" bit explained:[/u]
Each Faction is good at several things and has dedicated troops for that purpose. For example, British Infantry of the Line have better firearms stats than their equivalent, and British Highlanders and Foot Guard are some of the best Elite Infantry. Guide to the abilities/traits/skills/bonus/focus: Line Infantry: This faction excels at having well-trained Regulars, and so they are better trained and more accurate with their weaponry.
Elite Infantry: This faction has excellent Elite Infantry, some of the best top-tier infantry because of their melee and ranged skills.
Light Infantry: This faction has focused on raising troops with excellent marksmanship, and may have armed them with rifles.
Melee: This faction has focused on melee weapons. All of their troops are good in melee.
Irregulars: Troops from this faction have fought in non-conventional ways. They use most weapons to hand and easily pick off and defeat isolated troops in the field. They can also act as dedicated cavalry or infantry, if needed.
Overwhelming Force: This faction has massed large armies of conscripts and militiamen ready to fight.
Guards: The best cavalry and infantry in this faction with Guard status are excellent in the field. (basically Elite Infantry + Elite Cavalry)
Heavy Cavalry: This faction has focused on troops riding strong horses, and the troops themselves have great stamina, skill and strength. Often these troops are Cuirassiers.
Rounded Infantry: This faction's infantry has nothing special, they are almost as good in melee as at firing their guns.
How to install: Place the files in the .zip you downloaded into the Age of Blackpowder: Realm of Revolution folder. Make back-ups if you want, and start a new game.

Get 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/). Install. Extract the .rar files into a folder. Enter that folder, and if you see just one folder inside (the name of the mod), copy that and paste it into your modules folder. If you see a bunch of folders as well as text files, an image and a config file, go back, copy the folder you extracted the files into and paste it in your modules folder.
