Thrones Reforged – Shieldwall Continued

Thrones Reforged is a continuation of the amazing work done by the SHIELDWALL team, who built a mod that transformed Thrones of Britannia into something special. Without their incredible foundation, Reforged could not exist. Our goal is to honor that work while pushing the game even further.

• Reforged was designed to be used with MEDIUM UNIT SIZES
• Reforged was designed to be played on VERY HARD/LEGENDARY DIFFICULTY (all sliders)
• Minor factions are VERY difficult due to their starting conditions, they are recommended for very experienced players only.
• It is important you only utilise ENGLISH while playing, otherwise there will be crashes
• Please UNSUBSCRIBE from the original shieldwall mod.
• In case the download won’t work https://www.twcenter.net/resources/thrones-reforged-shieldwall-continued.4732/
• All tutorials and in-depth guides regarding new game systems have all been posted in our discord server

We believe Thrones of Britannia is an underrated Total War title with huge potential. Our mission is to build on the top-tier work of the SHIELDWALL team and expand it with new mechanics, systems, and content — giving players fresh reasons to enjoy the game for years to come.

All credit goes to the SHIELDWALL team for their tremendous work on the original mod. If you’d like to read more about SHIELDWALL, please visit their official Steam page here:

Official submods list

The current iteration of our mod wouldn’t have been possible without the kind contribution of the following modders:

• Musculus Maximus for his beautiful colored buttons mod
• Anisvara for his incredible old languages mod
• Il-Khan of Persia for his late game invasion replacer and culture groups renamed
• Vic and Caligula for the longbow animation fix
• Filay for his shields down while marching mod
• WhiteSushiEater for his ultimate animations mod

All of the credited author’s mods are not necessary any longer, they should be SWITCHED OFF in the mod loader!

• Fix commonly complained-about issues with the base game (bugs & features)
• New faction-specific missions and traits
• Fort stance changes with unique fort battle maps
• New dilemmas and events, both general and faction specific
