No one has tackled redoing the Sarranids yet if you interest in doing it. Then your work would get direct inclusion and my help in setting up its coding.Karl XII said:

Just a note for anyone attempting this, since I've done it successfully in the last version of Silverstag: in order to change the stats of a troop type you edit with Morgh's tool, you have to start a new game BUT you can change their names and equipment without restarting. Decide what kind of soldiers you want and what their proficiencies should be first. Worry about the equipment after.

How do you go about adding special abilities to them? I noticed the praven knight had some.

Ah so to add them, id have to edit the .py file and add the troop?
This is not something currently available to folks. I was waiting for the next save break to clean out some old issues from the code before releasing it publicly. I would hate to see folks make nice troop patches for others that get broken almost immediately by my own update which is what happened with Floris 2.5's release. We've made it nearly a year and a half since the last save breaking update and this next one is a planned break so the source will come out with it.Seipherwood said:

I noticed this when I was editing the Swadian Crossbowmen to use regular hose instead of woolen hose with kneecaps, as the latter armor goes above the knees and clips right through the leggings of the gambeson they wear. It was a nice surprise that I didn't have to restart to change equipment loadout for troops.
Speaking of which, you might want to keep that in mind for future release, changing the shoes for the crossbowmen so it doesn't interfere with their body armor.
Edit: Spelling error, writing nazi within me demanded I rectify my mistake.

Changed the Blue Gambeson for an Aketon and restored the Woolen Hose with Kneecops, looks pretty good.
Edit: By the way, the Swadian Crossbowmen are meant to go from Tier 3 to Tier 5, right? I'm a bit worried that exchanging the Gambeson for the Aketon might have pushed them up a tier.
Yes, they start at A3 and upgrade to A5 elites.
While we're on the subject of equipment, there are several Swadian troops that use other factions' gear (ie, Sarranid Leather Boots, Vaegiran Lance, etc...), along with a few instances of items that seem out of place, name-wise (like the Teutonic Shields and Horses, and Rus Cavalry Boots). Hardly game-breaking issues, obviously, but it may be a little weird to loot a bunch of Sarranid Boots, Vaegiran Lances, and Teutonic Shields from a Swadian armyLeifdin said:
Yep. I didn't find anything better look-wise or stat-wise. If I had power over the items, I could have changed new instances, but that seems a bit unnecessary. Especially considering that Swadia is in the middle. Let's pretend it's the ever-present influence on fashion
(BTW Tetonic shields are for the most part Norman, it's just different name, I hope I didn't assign any with cross; if yes, sorry)
