UNIQUE MAA SYSTEM
- REWORKED MAA TYPES: Skirmishers into Spears; Pikemen into Polearms; Heavy Infantry into Swordsmen; Archers into Missiles; Light Cavalry into Swords Cavalry; Heavy Cavalry into Spears Cavalry.
- REBALANCED MAAs: rock-paper-scissors: Spears trump Polearms and Cavalry, Swords trump Spears, Polearms trump Swords and Cavalry, Missiles trump Poles and Spears, Swords Cavalry trump Missiles and Spears Cavalry trump Swords Cavalry. Occasionaly, Pikes trump Swords and Cavalry, Long Bows trump Horse Archers, Long Swords trump Polearms, Axes trump Swords, Long Spears trump Swords. AND GUNS KILL THEM ALL
- TIERED MAA recruitment system: Tier 1: Commoners, vanilla ck3 maas vs Tier 2: Elites, with multiple unit type counters but only 50 per regiments. Resulting in elite multi-strength armies, defeated by massed specialist commoners.
- LIMITED MAA recruitment system: 1 maa regiment per Tier 2 unit, promoting diversity and avoiding OP armies. Tier 1 units are limitless like vanilla ck3.
- ADDED historical MAA evolution system: Historically obsolete MAAs disappear as newer MAAs arrive. Usualy newer means better, but not always so take care of the new MAA battle balance.
INGAME MINI COMPENDIUM
- ADDED 40 popup game concepts, explaining and detailing CLASSES, TIERS, WEAPONS added by the mod. Visible in most MAA descriptions.
