[Patch Notes – 07/05/2026]

• Rebalanced all melee weapon stats to make battles last just a little bit longer.

• Rebalanced Spears to improve their performance against swords and axes, while slightly reducing their anti-cavalry bonuses.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Patch Notes – 07/04/2026]

• In addition to battle_entities_tables, more significant changes have been implemented to kv_rules and melee_weapon tables.

• The overall combat experiences should feel a lot different now.

• Increased fighting speed for both Infantry and Cavalry through rebalanced Melee Weapon Damage Stats and updated Anti-Cavalry Bonuses.

• Cavalry retain their high-impact charges, but their Staying Power in prolonged combat has been reduced as a result of the aforementioned changes.

• Full DEI compatibility was included for above adjustments.

[Patch Notes – 07/03/2026]

• Increased the mass of all Cavalry, Elephants, and Hounds, buffing their charge attack damage into a more reasonable range.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Patch Notes – 07/02/2026]

• Increased and unified all Infantry Walk Speed.

• Increased all Infantry Run & Charge Speed.

• The Side Effects of this update is: Above changes will unavoidably and adversely break your previously saved battle replays.

[Patch Notes – 06/13/2026]

• More support added for certain roster-expanding mods.

[Patch Notes – 06/08/2026]

• Minor speed tweaks for certain units.

• Tweaked up overall charge distance commence run.

– This fixes some weird situations when you right click on an enemy unit to make your unit to charge at them but your unit would only start to walk towards them instead of running or charging.

– You are now able to right-click Only Once (not Twice) on an enemy unit to make your unit start to Run towards and finally charge at them (like in the later Total War games). It will first start to run, then apply charge stance and charge speed when there’s 50 feet or so depending on the unit. This change might save you some clicking when there are 20 something units you need to make them charge, making the operations more fluidly. Right-clicking twice can still do, it will still function as it was.

[Patch Notes – 05/06/2026]

• Tweaked down elephants’ hitpoints.

• Tweaked down horses’ hitpoints.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Patch Notes – 05/05/2026]

• Tweaked down hounds’ hitpoints.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Patch Notes – 05/04/2026]

• Tweaked horses’ hitpoints down by 70% to make them more vulnerable to missile and melee attacks:

– This ensures they retain their charge impact while reducing their staying power in prolonged melee combats;

– Aligns their survivability with some of their visually lack of armor;

– The change feels much more subtle in practice, so don’t let the 70% nerf scares you, the fact that it takes a 70% nerf only proves how much they needed the tweak.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Patch Notes – 04/16/2026]

• Reconstructed. Merged all tables into one, merged leftover Vanilla units to the main structure.

• Doubled most Cavalry mass, making Cavalry charges more deadly (but won’t be too powerful).

• Slightly increased walk and run speeds for most Infantry.

• Other minor tweaks for better synergy.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Initial Release Notes – 04/15/2026]

What this mod does are:

• Cavalry & Elephants & Warhounds are Now Move Even Faster on Battles. (Than with DeI – Faster Movement – kam2150)

• While the Infantry overall movement speed still remains the same as in DeI – Faster Movement – kam2150.

• Works on both Vanilla and DEI.

Enjoy, cheers.
