Equip all troops? (Not just Heroes)

Would anyone be interested in letting the player with each of his types of troops, equip them and change what armor they wear and what weapons they carry exactly the same as you can with Heroes? And when you modify and equip each type of troop, that automatically makes all of the numbers of that type of troop have the armor and weapons you gave them.

So for example: If I had: 10 Swadian Man at Arms and 5 Swadian Knights, just. 

Well lets say I equipped the Man at Arms with just armor of any choice and the weapons such as basically a bow, arrows and a sword and shield. And I gave the Swadian Knight similar. Well to have all 10 of the Swadian Man at Arms and the 5 Swadian Knights have the equipment I equipped them even though it seems like I was only equipping one of them.

Well just basically, would it be possible to make a mod that lets you equip each type of your normal troops the same as you can equip yur heroes?

I was thinking it might be so basic as to only have to do some tweaking of the text files in the M&B folder but if it is can someone tell me if they know which txt file and line to change?

Thanks guys :grin: :grin:
 
Ages ago there was a mod for .7 that allowed you to do just that with a particular "brand" of follower; it could be captured but couldn't die (% HP like you and the heroes).  You could equip it with whatever, level them, etc; got kind of cumbersome when you had several because each one had their own entry...50 of them was basically 50 nameless guys you had to scroll through to figure out which one needed updating.

i think that would kind of ruin the unique feature of the game:the ranking system

Example:you have a swadian knight with padded cloth armour, crap shield, craked lance  and lame courser

            but on the other side you have a vigre knight with plate and mail armour, balanced double handed axe and spirited charger

remeber these are almost the same skilled units but... you do the math

(the vigre wins for you retarts out there)

but here's a similar thought: when you are choosing your banner, you can choose out of several pre-made models because remember back in those days every lords knights looked different armour and weapons depending on their style of combat. Here's an example for you that don't get it:

You've just earned the right to carry a banner say for swadian ok??
After that it promps you with something like "although you have earned the right to bear a banner hard decisions must be made on your troops"
so then it goes through the Sergents and you can either choose fast moving ones (light armour light weapon) heavy ones and so forth...through all the types of your troops


Good idea??

Yes well thats what I mean in part of it :smile:. Is it possible to make it s that when you equip each type of troop, when you equip a troop, the armor and weapons you equipped on them counts for all of the ones in that type.

Yeah I see what you mean but its just that I wanted to improve my troops weapons equally and their armor too. And even for the look, becaue I wanted to equip each of them with the Custom Surcoats that are in the game so that they each wear Surcoats with my Banner on it :grin:. So Im on the battlefield with my soldiers wearing my colours :grin:. See what I mean? :wink:
 
I kinda see what you mean :roll:

But i got yet another thought:
Once you get top tier knights,lancers,sharpshooters ect they can further be upgraded from, lets say they start as 5th rate knights,marksmans ect...THEN as you get more leadership skill and depending on how lng the unit has been with you, it automatically upgrades to a 4th rate unit and this slightly upgrades the unit and i guess when you get to 2nd or 1st rate then they get that banner armour but just another thing:

they gotta make more types of banner armour AND banner armour for horses AND flags with your banner on it at the end of knights lances...that would look so cool :cool:
 
and i still recon we don't need this

what happens when you have a couple of hundred troops??
and how much would it cost to equip them??
also how long would it take to equip them??

(just for you retarts out there these are quite easy qustions and if you can answer them...congrads you are at least slightly smarter than a tennis ball)
 
Well would it be hard to make this mod?

Since debating on the need of a mod should only really be needed if it will be time consuming and hard to make.
But I dont think this mod would take long to make  :neutral:.

Sure its probably just tweaking of the txt files in the M&B Directory.
I just needa know which ones if there is.

Coming from a guy who obviously can't write properly.
 
That would be completly pointless cause then you could give recruits good armor (only paying for one suit even though you have 10 recruits) a charger (again only paying for one) a lance, bow and arrow, bastard sword and then have uber recruits that you pay 5 denars a week.  Also, there would be no point in having marksmen, sharpshooters, archers, knights, and other labels, because you could give anyone a bow and say their a marksmen.
 
Not entirely true. Even if your uber recruits had the same equipment as, say a Swadian Knight, the Knight will still have the upper hand because he has better stats.

I think the best idea would be to implement a sort of custom troop system. The game could allow you to specify what equipment an individual troop class uses, and all troops of that class would use the said equipments. And perhaps implement a system so that the player has to work for these "elite troops" (force them to buy a blacksmith to enable the option, make the armor/weapon the troops use a factor in their recruitment price/wages, etc)
 
The answer to all the problems in the world -
MAKE IT YOURSELF

seriously, if you think its really good, make it yourself and enjoy it.  I doubt it would actually be added to Native because it does take away a lot of gameplay in the way I metioned earlier

Yeah but that can only be done if I can MAKE IT. But can I make mods? NO. 

But like I asked earlier. Its most likely just a bit of tweaking of the txt files.
Does anyone know what it would be?
 
Really like I asked before: Has it got anything to do with editing the txt files in the M&B Directory? And if it is, which one and what line? :smile: Thx guys.
