🦀The Crustacean Nation🦞(Now compatible with The Old World Campaign)
This mod REQUIRES Mixu’s Unlocker
This mod WORKS in multiplayer campaigns
BUT if you are playing this mod in Multiplayer Campaigns turn the Mod Configuration Tool OFF
If you still encounter problems in multiplayer with MCT turned off, that means you are propably encountering a conflict with some different mod. Or are having problems which stem from different mod load orders/mod versions.
This mod adds a fully playable campaign race of 🦀Crustaceans🦀 to the game.
Featuring:
- 9 Major Playable factions (each with their own legendary lord and unique campaign mechanics)
- 3 Minor factions
- 3 Generic Lords
- 3 Generic Hero types
- 30 Units
- 3 Legendary Heroes
- 17 additional units and characters exclusive to specific factions
Factions can be individually enabled or disabled by using the Mod Configuration Tool (MCT)
If you hate sieges I recommend playing with my Siege Remover mod, works for all vanilla and modded factions including this one.
For maximum🦀immersion here[docs.google.com] you can find the handcrafted 8 page google doc on the faction’s lore.

If you want me to answer any of your other questions, go to the discord linked above, you have a way higher chance of getting a reply as I don’t reply to steam comments often. (allthou I do read them)
- For topics related to mod compatibility check the pinned Mod Compatibility Thread
- The game sometimes stutters for a few frames when loading back in from manual battles
- The game sometimes has audio glitches in battles with many (30+) crustacean units
- The resource buildings all have the same generic names and descriptions (I may get around to it at some point, but I really don’t feel like it right now XD)
