[SFO] Grand Order of the Reiksguard (Updated)
"Reiksguard Knights, your Emperor is calling! Death or glory await us, but if we die, we will die as warriors, with swords in hand, and there can be no better death than that."
—Kurt Helborg, The Reiksmarshal.
SFO version of my Reiksguard mod.
Though known mostly for their expertise in cavalry warfare, the Reiksguard are normally divided into a mounted arm known as the Reiksguard Knights, or the Imperial Cavalry, and an infantry arm, that they called the Imperial Foot.
This mod aims to give Reikland all the Reiksguard units from the lore :
- Imperial Foot (Halberds) – Anti-Large variant, they are available at a new building level of the Palace Reiksguard
- Imperial Foot (Greatswor) – Armor-Piercing variant, they are available at a new building level of the Palace Reiksguard
- Reiksguard Inner Circle – A Demigriph Knights RoR available at the Palace Reiksguard
For more uniqueness a few tweaks have been made :
- As one of the best trained order of the Empire, all cav now have the lance formation
- Imperial Foot (Halberds) have access to an Imperial Phalanx formation
- Zintler’s Reiksguard is now a melee cavalry, it seemed more fighting as they are meant to ambush
- To prevent Deathballs, Reiksguard untis are capped, that cap can be improved by building Reiksforts and the Reiksguard palace. EC unit is not included in the cap.
This mod has been made at first as a request of the community (yes looking at you fillder), and is meant as an addition to my next Empire mod adding Kurt Helborg and Ludwig Schwarzhelm.
Units are balanced for vanilla, feel free to comment if it feels off.
