Blood for Land is a First person RTS type game for Warband. The player starts the game by choosing where their hero is from, this determines their starting equipment and abilities. They then choose an economic area to focus on which will increase their generation of one of the four resources which are used for upgrades and buying soldiers. There is food, wood, iron and gold. The player then chooses their civilization which will determine which unique units they can train and which unique upgrades they will have.
A singularly unique mod, a blend of RTS-like faction management similar to AoE or certain Tower Defense games and good old on-the-ground combat we love in M&B WB. Technologies, troop upgrades, keeps, economic buildings and units, and more can be experienced. Well worth the download!
I like it a lot 10/10 :D
amazingly unique mod
Very interesting concept i had a lot a fun playing it
Very unique mod
A good game
Very nice. Technologies, units (And unique units in all civilizations), buildings, and resources like in the AOE saga, but conservating the esence of the M&B. And, all of this in the first version, I can't imagine the features of the future versions :D. 10/10
Very amazing mod. Could use more unique banners.
---GENERAL:---
For now, 9 out of 10 because the 2nd mission you get from the NPC to the left, right after the smitty is insanely hard. I don't know whether it's because of the 10-15 FPS [lowest settings, DX7] I'm getting in lategame or if it's something else.(Siege of something, can't remember the name)
The rest is really well made.
The only thing throwing me off is the low FPS count, and the Duel Lord being OP because of his hit and run AI and his crush through blocks. [I fought him on medium difficulty with combat AI on good, damage to player on normal and combat speed on fastest.]
I've only once made it to the destroyer and he instantly destroyed me. Hence the name, I guess.
[Edit: Using outranging and stunlocking I've successfully beaten the Breaker. It's just really hard, but possible.]
---SUGGESTIONS/IMPROVEMENTS:---
More unit variation, more stuff to spend your gold on (If you go for the tournament+hunting after every single mission you get way more money than you can spend, besides on extremely expensive equipment for your character)
I'd also like to be able to assign groups to my units (like 1 for infantry, 2 for archers. But what if I want my knights to fight inside my infantry division and tell them to dismount, but I cannot put my traders into an own division so they don't dismount as well?)
I'd also enjoy more replayability. Like speaking with your guards, and when you ask them how things are going they answer "We're under attack!" and you get thrown into a random battle that chooses a random battlefield out of a pool of 10 or so, also choosing an attacker varying from raiders to an actual faction.
I'd also prefer a way to travel between towns that's not "Save and exit", loading the save and then selecting the town you want to go to. Sure, it works, but it's not a fancy way to do it. Or maybe there is a way to travel between towns and I just haven't found it yet, apologies in that case.
---BUGS/TRICKS:---
You can give cattle to your companions and then give them the order to dismount and charge. You slaughter the cattle and get food, they die in combat and respawn with new cattle, repeat.
The best mod I have had fun with coming into 2017
