Holy Moly Gate Guard
This is a simple stand alone mod. It uses the heavy armour set from Make Holy Nation Great Again. Go check it out it’s an all round lore friendly amazing addition to the game, I highly recommend it! That mod and this one go hand in hand together! They also add blueprints for the armour, this mod does not.
This mod improves the gate guard of the Holy Nation in general, but nothing else. This is intended to go alongside horror themed mods that add overpowered enemies!
Compatibility: As long as an overhaul mod uses the default gate guard squad this mod will apply to those mods as well! Either way it shouldn’t break anything.
If you do not use improved enemies this mod is still fine to use in vanilla. None of the guards added here are lore breaking or over powered.
Holy Moly Gate Guard adds a new unit to the game: the Holy Shield. They only spawn at the gates of Holy Nation cities. (not small outposts) He is in essence a high paladin wearing fancy armour with a +10 to strength and toughness. (Much less impressive than an inquisitor!) He does however get a boost in unarmed combat, which is completely negated by the heavy armour. It’s just there so he can still do something in the highly highly unlikely event that some silly passerby strips him of all his fancy gear. (yes I am looking at you…)
The gates are upgraded as follows:
Old Gate Guards:
Gate Guard Basic (cities) 9 Holy Sentinels
Gate Guard Narko’s Trap 1 Holy Sentinel / 6 Paladins
Gate Guard Small (mines) 2-3 Holy Sentinels
New Gate Guards:
Gate Guard Basic (cities) 1 Holy Shield / 4 Paladins / 4 Holy Sentinels
Gate Guard Narko’s Trap 1 Holy Shield / 6 Paladins
Gate Guard Small (mines) 1 High Paladin / 4 Paladins
Note: these squads spawn for each gate! only 5 can guard a standard gate at a time. The excess guards will be choosing random spots throughout the city to stand guard at. (this is vanilla Kenshi behavior)
Lastly:
Okran’s Shield has been blessed with 3 gate guard squads now! One for each gate! Previously only 2 of it’s gates got guards.
This is mainly to help protect them from the [n]Murder Machines[/b] that have recently popped up! 😉
