    SP - General New sandbox option: "Custom Start"

    To avoid every play starting with the same early game, I present an idea shamelessly based on an option from X4. What?: Custom Start would be an alternative option to the vanilla basic start that starts the player off with nothing but some tier 2 equipment and small amount of money. Upon...

    SP - General Slings for Sturgia

    Sturgia's ranged infantry AND horsemen are bad, which makes the faction rather meh since other factions are at least mediocre in areas outside of their expertise. To address this, I propose giving Sturgia slings. Slings would work with Sturgia's established favoring of throwing weapons (slings...

    SP - General More bolts per quarrel

    Currently all elite crossbow men have only one quarrel to hold a shield, making them worse ranged units than bowmen due to their highly limited ammo supply. Bolts and arrows are also very samey in item properties. I think one way to fix both of these would be to make bolts have more bolts...

    SP - General Even Cheaper Crossbow: Crude Crossbow

    The new 1.8 Crossbows are great, but they have one problem: Even the cheapest crossbow is still way out of reach of a new character. To fix this, I propose adding yet another light crossbow: The "Crude Crossbow". It would be based on the Skåne and Colletière à Charavines crossbows, combining...

    SP - General Make tournament bet odds consider the opposition

    Tournament odds don't seem to consider your opponents: You get the same bet outcomes regardless of if you're in a tournament full of nobles, or with no nobles. Make the odds consider this instead of just the player's win rate.

    SP - Player, NPCs & Troops Buff Watchman troop tree

    Currently Watchman and their higher rank counterparts are just worse than their counterparts and absurdly expensive so there's no real reason to use them unless you've stacked perks that make them pay you or you're in utterly desperate need of troops, AND have money to burn AND find a large...

    SP - General Make selling loot give trade skill

    Trade is a skill that impacts basic game functions (sell price) but 1: Does not raise from that basic function, only increasing from one very specific gameplay act 2: Requires level 50 perks to even use effectively, making starting annoying. The easy fix is just to give a small amount of XP...

    MP Game Mode Suggestion: Noble Breakout

    Noble Breakout would be a new game mode that combines Captain with the common multiplayer game modes of Man with the Golden Gun (and its many successors), and Escape modes. Noble Breakout would have two types of player: The noble and the attackers. At the start of each match one player is...

    SP - UI Ability to write numbers in slider-based UI elements

    Currently sliders are very precise (chargen even goes into decimals!) which can be annoying when you're trying to get an exact number. Current standouts for this are character generation, unit percentage in order of battle, companion party's wage maximum, money/bulk goods in bartering with...

    SP - General Negotiate with rebels.

    Currently rebels only exist to get slaughtered and slow down successful kingdoms. How about (assuming a rebellion wasn't spawned from a city they owned) allowing an independent or kingdom owning player to negotiate with rebels to crown the PC king or to join the PC's kingdom? This would provide...

    SP - General Increase frequency for learning lower level smithing parts at mid/high smithing.

    Right now you can have a character who is great at smithing (150+ skill) that's totally unable to make any pikes or throwing axes because he never got the part unlock, and could have a character who has many tier V parts, but is missing some basic tier 1 parts. I propose making it so that if...

    SP - General Make companions join with all perks unassigned.

    With the sheer quality imbalance between perks, that many perks needing to be paired for sensible use (wood chopper+shield breaker for example), and inability to know a potential companion's perks before they join makes it rather annoying for companion's perks to be randomly assigned. The easy...

    SP - General (Bandit) Prisoners=construction.

    The quest Land Owner Needs Manual Laborers says slavery of bandits for manual labor is accepted in Calradia. The player should be able to exploit this themselves. Simply make it so that every prisoner (or just bandit type prisoners) in your dungeon gives a boost to construction speed, either...

    SP - Quests Quests give skill XP

    Currently the only quests that increase skills are incidental (fighting bandits gives combat skill, relationship boosts increase charm etc.) and many skills lack enough options to raise them. An easy way to fix this would be to make quests give skill XP. This is particularly easier as most...

    SP - General Give Vlandian culture a reduction in costs for non-leader parties of a clan.

    One of Vlandia's bonuses is bonus income if serving as a mercenary. That's fine early game, but literally useless past the mid-game since you aren't serving as a mercenary once you're a vassal or ruler and makes the culture option weak long term. To solve this I propose that other parties from...

    SP - General A few policy option suggestions

    Private Arms Common citizens of the kingdom are permitted to and encouraged to keep and bear personally owned arms. Increases quality of militia troops, but raises loyalty threshold for (such as 35 and lower instead of 25 and lower) and chance of rebellion. Cognatic Primogeniture No direct...

    In Progress Tabard on "White Tabard over Mail Hauberk" is not white. Actually uses clan colors.

    Summary: The Tier 5 Vlandian item titled "White Tabard over Mail Hauberk" actually uses a clan's primary color for the tabard, not white. How to Reproduce: Set something other than white as your primary color and put this item on. Have you used cheats and if so which: No, but cheats would make...

    SP - General Bonus awards in tournaments to provide incentive to win when there's 4+ teams.

    Currently in tournament matches where there's 4+ sides, there's zero incentive to actually win the match rather than merely survive till half the other teams are defeated since the top 50% of teams all move on to the next with no penalty. Obviously this raises the question of why one would even...

    SP - General Field Artillery

    Currently engineering skill is nearly impossible to gain early game, and staying in place is generally the strongest tactic in battle for everything except cavalry and shieldless infantry (whom it's still strong for with the right terrain). One thing that could fix both is implementing field...
