Historical Garrison Bodyguard Fixes and Changes
This mod fixes an issue where some historical garrison Heroes use the incorrect animation. It does this by giving them new bodyguards better suited to their appearances. For example, Lycian garrison bodyguards are now ranged units, matching the Hero they protect, while Ithacan garrison bodyguards are now melee units to match their Hero. The new bodyguard units have been selected to match the custom game costs of the original bodyguards as much as possible in order to preserve the original balance as much as possible.
Additionally, Thracian and Phrygian garrison bodyguards will no longer be static, and will instead improve with the main building. Tier 1-2 settlements will have War Chanter bodyguards, while tier 3-5 settlements will have Androphone bodyguards. Also, Lelegan garrison bodyguards will use Lelegan units rather than those of Paris. Finally, the bodyguard of Hippolyta’s Troy garrison has been changed from bow cavalry to bow infantry, as no other garrison in the game has cavalry or chariot bodyguards.
Note that, with the exception of the player’s settlements, the changes in this mod will not apply until turn 2 of the campaign.
The changes apply to the following playable factions:
– Ithaca
– Salamis (minor settlements only)
– Paris
– Lycia
– Thrace (major settlements and tier 1-2 minor settlements only)
– Hippolyta (minor settlements, Thebes, and Troy only)
It also applies to non-playable factions of the following cultures:
– Dorians
– Leleges
– Thracians (major settlements and tier 3 minor settlements only)
– Phrygians (major settlements and tier 3 minor settlements only)
