Hello everyone.
I have come forward to release a small new iteration, a submodule in fact, for the Diplomacy 4.litdum V1.7 module, originally found here:
Moddb.com
The release for the Diplomacy 4.litdum Brainy Bots Edition can be found here:
Moddb.com
A general changelog of modifications from the vanilla Diplomacy 4.litdum V1.7 follows:
>> Brainy Bots modification added, customized by me and fully functional, sourced from: Moddb.com
- Brainy Bots can be edited by pressing F10 on the field (or arena, tavern etc.) and include NPC combat new features such as kicking, feinting, much better blocking and footwork. This pairs well with the new combat animations for a fluid and CHALLENGING combat experience.
- Increased Arena and Training Camps Rewards. I highly recommend training for a couple of minutes (or hours...) in these to familiarize yourself with the new aditions.
- Increased damage values AND armor values by around 10~20% to further gap the difference between high tier and low tiered equipment.
- Completely rebalanced all combat troops and hireable companions following the same logic of Reloaded!, so each troop have attributes and skills which correlates to the level progression of the player.
- Tweaks such as Ale and Wine consumable, some goods value rebalance, and some QoL changes.
Video demonstration of the combat experience with a brand new character recorded by me can be found here:

All credits to litdum's amazing work as always on the original module, and gravskrift's "Doghotel's Brainy Bots" tool and its amazing functionalities. I hope to have nailed the balance between gruesome, imprevisible combat and fluid tactical manouvers on the battlefields. Im very thankful!
Glad for your attention, keep safe,

Hello, the submod is very fun, it has a lot of nice changes that I enjoy a lot.
I have a question, the Swadian Knight seems to have Ironflesh and Power Strike 7, the same as the Man-at-Arms.
is this intentional?
The Swadian Knight is weak compared to the Sarrani Mamluk and the Vaegir Knight
Thanks, Im glad you enjoyed it.
The change is indeed intentional: Man-at-arms are somewhat poor equiped for a tier 4, but they get a good buff from stats, they are squires in training after all. Knights on the other hand are the best equiped melee troops of the entire game: the Morningstar is a phenomenal weapon, their armor AND horses are best in the game, and they can destroy foot troops when charging in formation. To compensate for that, they are weaker statwise than other faction knights.
Hope this explains the balancing decisions behind the submodule, thanks for the comment!
