Armoured Empire State Troops
This mod allows you to upgrade Empire State Troops into armoured versions of the units. The upgrade costs 300 gold and they receive +30 armour.
The region where your army is has to have a Smithy or an Armoury for you to be able to upgrade.
The number of new armoured units you can have in your armies is tied to the number of Blacksmith and Armoury buildings you have. Each Blacksmith building you have will give +3 units you can have, Armoury will give +5.
Affects:
Crossbowmen
Halberdiers
Swordsmen
Spearmen
Spearmen (Shields)
Handgunners
Doesn’t affect Greatswords because Ado’s mod doesn’t, and this is not my area of expertise. And I actually like how Greatswords look.
The main Upgrade Units mod is required.
The big difference from the scrap upgrade system CA added to the Greenskins is that my upgrades can switch the visual model of the units. This is currently impossible with the CA upgrade system, and to me this is very important.
The SFO submod.
Stand-alone SFO version made by Daneman200.
For other overhauls:
The armoured version of the units will have vanilla stats + 15 armour. If you have mods that change, for example, Swordsmen stats, the upgraded version won’t have those stats, but vanilla stats. I’d have to make compatiblity submods for it to work differently. Stay tuned for when/if I feel like doing this.
If you’re using my Officer Upgrades you can only choose one upgrade path: armoured unit OR the unit with officer. I don’t like it, but the whole system is so complex that it’s hard to reconcile this kind of stuff.
Built-in compatibility with the Battle Standard Bearer mod.
