Hello,
we've got some news for you! During the past few months, we were working on the next version of RotR 1.2 - the Northern Wars Update. It's not done yet but we hope that we get the release done in April / May next year.
As the name suggests RotR 1.2 will be centred around the northern factions - Sweden, Russia and Denmark.
But until then we've something to show you:
Here is the Swedish army:
compared to RotR 1.1.9b there are 5 new Swedish units:
- Drottningens lif regemente (the 5th unit in the upper line)
- Tyska regemente (the last unit in the lower line)
- Lifregementets grenadjärkår (the 8th unit in the lower line)
- Lifgrenadjärregementet (the 7th unit in the lower line)
- Lifregementets lätta bataljon (the 9th unit in the lower line)
The latter three will be unlocked after researching a tech as they were only created after Gustav IV Adolf became king.
And here some in-game screenshots of the new units:

Thanks to the great work by IS_Oleg we can now present you the Russian army:

New small nations will be represented in a new way:
The first is Brunswick. Small nations will have their unique building chain which will only be available at the town where they are located. The unique buildings will have some special all-round effects and are making the units available.
Have a look:
Here some 3D previews:

Stunning work !
Thanks:)
Great! I hope you fixed the bug where the Swedish infantry doesn't have any firing drills and just fire like vanilla NW infantry? This made Swdes at real disadvantage since they also have less soldiers per squad. I really had no trouble beating them as Russia...
We will remove firing drills completly and as you can see in the screenshots, all ranks are firing, so there is no need for firing drills.
Hi!Love the mod:)Will you make formations more dense for the new firing system,and will it be implemented for all factions or only for the northern ones?Keep up the great job:)!!
Yes, it will. Thanks:)
Fantastic!! What's the next units you are going to expand? :)
Denmark is the next (and last for 1.2) faction in line.

I have the 10th anniversary version, do I need this to get the full mod?
Or to have it work well?
Sorry for my grammar, I'm French....
