Multiplayer Compatible!

Getting vassals to do anything is a pain. Coordinating factions barely, if ever, works. And we can’t give commands to individual armies.

Now, with this mod, we can directly lead our vassals!

A button is added to your general’s portrait on the bottom left of the screen. When clicked, the nearest armies of your vassals will be summoned to your general, forming a warband.

When you move, the warband immediately teleports to you. Simple, effective, fun. Lovely.

There is a limit for the number of vassal armies your general can have following them. The limit is 1 + (General level / 10), and capped at 3 for balance. So at level 20, your general will lead the max of 3 armies.

After ten turns, the warband will be disbanded, but another one can be made.

Best part? All your generals can lead their own warband! Wheeeee

Update: Moved the button for Ogres, so it doesn’t cover the meat icon

Update: Fixed the button deactivating if vassal only had 1 army

Update: Removed replenishment debuff. It was too punishing, now vassal warbands can replenish in allied provinces

Update: Added army size weighting to distance calculation. Over medium distances, armies with more units will be preferred over armies with fewer units.

Update: Fixed regressions that broke functionality

Update: Fixed a couple of bugs in edge cases

Update: Added functionality to disband warband early, and get a shorter cooldown depending on the general’s level.

Update: Fixed an oversight with moving the warband when using underway

Update: Moved button for Ogres, Skaven, Dark Elves, and Vampire Coast. Won’t hide meat or loyalty banner now.

Update: Fixed an oversight which added ogre camps to the warband. Added compatibility for the Province Patrols mod to exclude those armies.

Update: Fixed rarely occurring sack/raze looping movement bug, where the character will endlessly move back and forth when leading a warband.

Update: Har Ganeth’s Blood Voyage dummy faction no longer counts as a valid vassal.

Update: Leftover warbands, after disbanding your leading army, will be cleared properly now.
