Equip regular troops like companions *tweak*

[Lord Kinlar]

This tweak/cheat enables you to equip regular troops just like companions. It basically enables the equipment dialog for regular troops. You may equip an entire army with only one armor so this is definitely a *cheat* unless you have only one troop of a certain type. You may also take their equipment for your own use.

In conversation.txt replace the blue lines with the green ones.

You may lose equipment, so be careful.

i'm confused, If I have say,, 100 Vaegar knights, if I talk to one of them, it'll give them all, say a Heavy Charger and Full Plate armor if I equipped it to just one of them? so all my Vaegar knights would have it?

Exactly.

what if they all die? then i get a pack of new vaegir knights? what happens then?

 

[Swadius 2.0]

This is absolutely fantastic! You have given me renewed motivation to play M&B all over again. It's so awe inspiring and miraculous , in fact, that it makes me want to ****! My commendations to you, fine sir.

 

[LordMutaz]

I may try this.... i'm not sure though... I can just imagine, the Nord Huscarls in this mod... they get 2 further upgrades... them in plate armor.... jesus... I may as well get 100 of them and watch the Land die ...

 

[Lord Kinlar]

It's just a little tweak for fun, use it or don't, no big deal.

 

[Lord Kinlar]

Take their equipment before upgrading units, otherwise you'll lose the equipment.

 

[Slartibartfast]

Hurrah! Does this mean that I can take the novel step of giving all my Khergit lancers a lance!?

 

[Taraleon]

Does the changes affect troops outside your party? Say, give Huscarls plate armor, and then enemy huscarls have plate too?

Mounted huscarls...

 

[Lord Kinlar]

Forget lances, you may give all your troops heraldic armor.

Dunno, haven't tested it thoroughly.

 

[Kleidophoros]

which was the first thing i thought when i read the thread.

Mounted huscarls...

huscarls do have 2 in their riding skill. 

 

[Lord Kinlar]

which was the first thing i thought when i read the thread.

There's a problem though and it's probably a *BUG*. Heraldic armors on regulars don't seem to carry your banner in the party screen, unlike companions. Your banner does appear on heraldic armors in battles however.

 

[Lord Kinlar]

what if they all die? then i get a pack of new vaegir knights? what happens then?

Well, you'll lose the equipment.

couldnot care less.
100 warriors in heraldic armor engagin some "commoners". now thats a good sight!

 

[Lord Kinlar]

I've just given a warhorse to a Swadian infantry. Let's see how skilled he is with a horse.

 

[SanDiego]

I think I love you. Right now, I imagine a charge of huscarl's on warhorses in heraldic armor.... Aww, man you made me droll into keyboard

Is this save game compatible? Or will I have to start over?

No, you don't have to start a new game.
