Hello everyone!
This update overhauls how equipment is handled across the board. The new dynamic loadout system gives every unit and officer the flexibility to carry multiple weapons and swap between them based on situation and behavior. It also removes any unit specific battle stats and replaces them purely with equipment based stats.
Every unit now uses a modular equipment system, with weapons drawn from faction-defined loadout pools. Officers gain even more control through a new interface that lets you directly manage their gear in the campaign layer. Whether you want your commander mounted with a lance or armored with a danish axe, it’s now entirely in your hands.
The large army mode is now integrated in the campaign! It's still marked as experimental until all bugs are ironed out, but you can fully play campaigns with 7 formation garrisons now.
I've also added several key visual and balance improvements, see the full changelog below!
If you experience any issues or bugs, you can report them using the ingame feedback form, here on Steam, or on the official Discord server.Join the Discord here:
