Basic Army Mod (December 5) file

This is a shorter work than my earlier mod, and it includes an easy install/uninstall because it only changes stock units.

I want to make a final version soon.

The recent updates have been through campaign experience, tested while facing large armies of AI troops.

Basic Army Mod bases on Professional Armies Mod 1.03:

Rtw.heavengames.com

This version changes only stock units: More morale, lower upkeep, higher defense skill, higher damage.
Also included is fast training for many lower-quality units.

Meant to be played with this campaign:
