is this mod alive?

Do you think you could give us the option to disable improved horse archer AI? It seems to cause more problems than its worth, I'll always see AI horse archers charge into a horde with no weapons equipped and commit suicide.

really good mod and has potential to be one of the best. right now, my main issue with the mod are bugs. maybe my download was fugged, but when i start a new kingdom, all merchants in my towns have their stock just vaporized and replaced with trash regardless of the culture and default troop set for my kingdom. weaponsmiths have what you'd expect to find from looters. its not entirely game breaking since i can use cheatmenu to buy things, but very inconvenient. the reputation system seems to need more work as well, since you cant make peace with other factions. magic cooldown seems to be a bit high, but i love how powerful it is. (also, it says people are "dodging" AOE attacks, but they seem to die anyway?) There's also an issue with the siege of Talabheim. Forces stop right before the ladder and dont move while a few attack the walls. It's really awesome for defenders lol but it is broken. Empire troops with firearms could seriously use an accuracy buff, as they seem to be the most innacurate ranged units in the game. I've noticed that fief incomes are either horrible or amazing. In Reformists playthrough, he usually gets 60000 from a very poor single town whereas my very rich towns trickle in maybe 2000-5000 total.
I know there are already thousands of items and you might not be able to add more, but some more armors for humans would be pretty cool.
A New Dawn had a cool feature where you could train soldiers into top tier units at towns, this mod could benefit from something like that I think.
One last thing. There needs to be an endgame way of improving your stats, like in Pendor or Perisno, because you're at a serious disadvantage against every lord who is level 60.

Cheatmenu. Personally whenever I hit 30 hours or so I’ll “insantly build equipment,” which is about the vanilla time w/10 engineer to build a siege tower. The new time is just retarded and seems tacked on literally only hurting the player so we can see the new siege random events (which are pretty stupid imho), just like how the stumble and fall only effects the player. Even if you take control of a bot after your character goes down, the bot is now prone to stumbling.

Speaking of cheatmenu, Cozur, can you make it so the noble clothing is accessible outside the cheatmenu? It looks fantastic but I really would like a non-cheatmenu way of getting those robes you said you paid 300$ a pop for.

You have vassals and fiefs to hand out right? I’m not having this problem

Godspeed boys. **** Bethesda. The fans will carry the series forward and will do it better than a paid dev team.

Can you fix the broken path finding in the King Landing siege that has been broken since 2.0 then?

I actually think Daenerys could be properly added in this mod and you wouldn’t have to think about dragons. Basically since this mod starts around the same time that she is still with Khal Drogo, you could just have it so she never becomes “mother of dragons”, and instead invades westeros 100 days after Aegon does with an army of Dothraki, and Khal Drogo. Essentially it’d be what Robert Baratheon feared. You could even add back the mereen questline, as if the khalasar conquered mereen. It’s definitely not at all what happens in the show and books, then again, neither is lord corgi taking over the three sisters and ******** on Tywin Lannister.

Found a gamebreaking bug. Mid siege, after calling for a meeting with the castle commander, I got stuck in the siege screen and could not "wait," so I abandoned the siege. One second later, I was stuck in the castle menu and could not leave. Then trying to besiege the castle would do nothing. This was at Storm's End following a siege popup where the game asks you to do stuff with peasant heads. This was in 6.2 btw.
Huge script error occurred.

Holy **** you’re adding in the red wedding for 5.1, you absolute madman. Time to reinstall warband.

I’m sure this has been asked before but have you guys considered making a Noldor player character possible? If you guys consider it, the noldor start would be balanced, but harder in the long run. You could have us start with good stats with good equipmen, acces to Elacrai(maybe add a noldor marketplace) and the ability to hire Noldor without qualis gems(prestige instead?) but be hostile (-75) to every human faction, including knighthood orders (silvermist excluded). Our longtime goal could be to recounqer Pendor. I love this mod but I’ve played through it so many times, it’d be nice to have a new challenge.

I was fighting Lord Randyll Tarly on Normal, and Tywin joined on my side. His entire cavalry line charged at Randyll's cav line and got cut up. By the time Randyll's cav got through Tywin's cav, he barely took any casualties from the Westerlands knights, if any. Mind you: Tywin had just as many cavalry units as lord Randyll, whose horn hill knights are what I consider light cav. Lannisport spearmen charged in alongside vanguard and got cut down by the same reach knights. Took some casualties, but not enough to stop the cav. Eventually they got to my infantry shieldwall and got put down by a cluster of axe guard, ironborn, and rivermen. Point is, Westerlands Cavalry is garbage against other cavalry; even worse against heavy cavalry. Horses go first, then their swords are too slow and do too little damage in melee. Their lannisport spearmen get overwhelmed in melee too, because their spears cant do any sufficient damage against a plated destrier moving slowly or its rider.

I'm glad you brought this up. I've noticed that the Westerlands are probably the worst faction in Westeros as of 4.1, which is unfortunate. Their bastard swords are horrible and do next to no damage, their spearmen get outperformed by any other infantry, and their cavalry gets torn to shreds facing any other heavy cavalry faction. I've seen Reachmen Knights take on Tywin's front line of cavalry and take no losses, Westerlands cav is that bad now.

You said "Tourneys are the exact same as field battles." They clearly aren't dude, not with that modifier

Thats a lie, or you're ignorant of your own mod. There is a damage modifier in tourneys called "extreme mode" (under tournament options) that cut player damage in half while taking 2x as many damage. It also boosts your rewards to 20k each tourney rather than 3800

I'm not throwing peasants at them, that strategy doesn't work in any mod let alone this one and thats not what I am complaining about. I know strategy, and I couldn't beat Pendor if I threw peasants at Heretic armies. I'm telling you that they are better than reach knights, sworn swords, and other reach units I've trained up/rescued, robber Knights cut them apart. Unless I have 50 sworn swords, there is no going head to head. I've basically made it a habit to ride around them in circles while I cut their horses down so I don't lose half my men to a cav charge every time my party is chased. The best way to balance this would be to merge the parties and spawns so Robber Knights would be with regular bandits, but give them only 3-10 Robber Knights. In Pendor, you have Heretic parties for example, who btw have better equipment and skills than Robber Knights and bandits. In Heretic Parties at the beginning of the game until about lvl 10 you'll that heretic parties only have 2-3 top tier units, 5-10 mid tier, and 10-20 scrub tier. Those top tier units are either lvl 55 or 40; the 55's have no helmets but hit like tanks, and the 40's have full plate and very fast bastard swords, being some of the best weapons in mod. There is risk, reward, and troops stand a chance. The difference being, if Pendor was unbalanced like AWOIAF, you would have heretic parties of 50-100 scrubs and midtier, and parties of 50-60 lvl 40 magni with great armor and some of the best weapons in game. All my armies in AWOIAF take huge casualties. I take 40-50 mid tier men with me that should be able to deal with basic pirates on my way to Bravos, I think, but they all get slaughtered by a party of 50-70 pirates all faster than my warship. The only reason I won that battle was because the enemy pirate ship was bugged and knocked pirates unconcious as soon as they reached the top of the bow. Btw, thats a bug.

Prophesy of Pendor is not an easy mod, I've done at least 6 full playthroughs of it. Perisno is not an easy mod. Both have units that can one shot you on any damage option. I always have damage on normal for friends, and I go through troops like a WW2 commander. In fact I can guarentee they are all harder than this mod in a good way, but you know why they're great? They're balanced, challenging and you can actually run away from the party of 103 Divine Aethlings that tear any infantry to shreds. Not a single one of those are you a magic warrior with a magic army, I don't know where you got that idea from. Sure, you can have elves in both, but do you know how long it takes to train them in perisno? Or how much grinding is required to even get two twilight knights in Pendor, when there are better options? People like me love those mods because there is a reward for all the time I pour into them, good units, great equipment. So to correct you; if I want to play a mod that is hard, challenging, rewarding, not a grind with unbalanced robber knights, bad recruitable troops that take ages to train only to have them die to a bandit, a wound every battle EVEN with full plate, I will play something else. This mod always had potential but I'm dissapointed every update to be honest, and maybe its just me. I want this to be a good mod which is why I compare them to great mods like Perisno and Pendor when I criticize this.

It seems almost all horses had their hitpoints cut in half, I can't tell you how many reach cav I have lost on basic bandits. And why are robber Knights so damn powerful? You realize how horribly "balanced" they are right? They spawn in groups of 50,lvl 47 each with lances and armored destriers, and they just cut down your men, which is ridiculous. Not a single party in POP has that many well trained heavy cav that a player would face in the beginning. I noticed you said you never played pop which could be why the balancing is bad in this mod, every mod author should play it to understand how they made the most balanced mod, that still has OP units, making it a challenge, but a surmountable challenge.

True, but you can only customize them with a specific set.

Cozur, you should make the Unsullied customizable. In the books it's mentioned that they are given leather tunics so that their master can equip them with whatever they wish. Have us buy the equipment in stores, and give it to them. It would make them much more worth their money.

You can read right? The starting options say "change character names according to HBO/ASOIAF." I was always under the impression it just changed names, like it says, such as Yara and Asha being swapped, but it swaps entire characters and storylines, as I found out. Since I prefer the books, I always chose the latter option, but I'm dissapointed it means I can't meet Daenerys. Even if I chose GOT names, whats the point? Technically she's sill a man and just another king but with a dress model.

The whole reason people wanted Dany to invade was so they could marry her, but she can't be married since technically she's still Aegon. Think it would be better if she was in regardless of name preference. Because its not just changing names, you're changing entire storylines.

Is there some reason you decided not to change Aegon completely into Daenerys and instead just made them swap depending on the "character name preference" option? Because it's pretty disappointing that you can't marry her since technically she's still Aegon, and if you like the ASOIAF names, you can't even meet her.

So, can I get a hint as to how to find the new Valyrian swords? Or is there no way?

Are there any new quests or am I wasting time scouring Westeros for a quest that could reward me with any new swords?

Yeah I found him there too, the Blackfyre claimant.

Why isn't there a maester in every castle? There should be, and its really annoying when you are serving in an army, get wounded, and can't get healed because they never visit a town/castle with a maester.

wait weapon breaking is in this mod, no option to turn it off and no weapon maintenence? w h a t

so just how hard is the wight army going to be fellas? on a scale of 1-10, compared to the dread legion or a heretic army from pendor, i gotta know whether or not i can expect sodomization at the hands of the undead.

I have 16GB of ram, a Geforce GT750M and have pretty good FPS all around with some things maxed out, so it's gotta be your ram.
