Knights of the Black Rose
"I felt the ground quake and our pikes clattered together as the vibrations got stronger. From over the brow of the hill came the Order of the Black Rose, heading straight for our pike wall. We couldn’t believe it! Cavalry charging pikes from the front was suicide, but there they were at full tilt, with lances lowered. I have never been so afraid. It was like facing metal-clad gods, not an inch of flesh was visible. Well, we dropped our pikes and scattered. Who wouldn’t?"
This mod adds a new unit(s) to the Empire roster, the Knights of the Black Rose, based on the Uniform and Heraldry of the Empire book.
- Shock Cavalry that has both a Lance and Sword and Shield variant
- Dismounted variant that is equipped with Maces and Shields
- Available for recruitment at a custom building under the ‘Military Support’ building set
- Available only at Wurtbad in Stirland, Talabheim in Talabecland, and Castle Templehof in Western Sylvania
- Custom ability that is consistent with it’s lore
- Balanced for vanilla
- Xoudad – This mod was pretty much inspired by his Sigmar’s Heir mod, this is just another look at the Order. The shields are also his, used with permission. (Thank you!)
- h3ro – His amazing Asset Editor is what made this unit possible. Big thanks to him for all the possibilities!
You can use it without the Unlocker, but you can only find the units in Talabheim.
Don’t use this with my Petr von Stolpe mod. It is already included.
Comment any potential balance changes and check the change notes for update details.
