Good day JLMP, how easy would it be to add arquebusiers to Byzantium for myself and tie it to the scripts?

Hi JLMP, how are you?

Would be possible to make the Aztecs playable as well? It's amazing to have the kingdoms factions in here. I would like to have the Aztecs playble to inavade europe with them. I don't know a mod where you have the kingdoms factions and the Aztecs are playable as well.

Lack of buffs on guild buildings is a feature or bug? (Besides merchant tradable goods and weapon upgrades )

If I missed some mod info I am sorry, fever is annoying I am trying to chill out somehow but I wonder if there is a point in building those guilds.

Why is the AI so aggressive in this mod? By turn 10 as Sicily on "Hard" and with an alliance with the pope, Milan and Venice had already attacked me with large armies...

It is aggressive (although it is not mad and respects alliances) to pose any challenge as the AI is awful in general and not much can be done.
Imo it is not aggressive enough

Hey I was curious I tried to do multiplayer with another person that is running only this mod but we're having an issue. It is saying that our game version is incompatible and I can't seem to figure out why. Is this mod multiplayer compatible and if is it fixable? Both of us are using the steam version with no others mods.

There are II possibilities - launch the mod as an expansion:

Method I.
1- On the "Properties" tab select "SET LAUNCH OPTIONS" and type:
--features.mod=mods/vanilla_kingdoms_2023
2- Press play on Steam to play

Method II.
1- go to Steam\SteamApps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods
2- rename "teutonic" folder teutonic1 or whatever
3- rename "vanilla_kingdoms_2023" folder "teutonic"
4- inside the newly renamed "teutonic" folder edit VK2023.cfg
find
mod = mods/vanilla_kingdoms_2023
replace with
mod = mods/teutonic

5- within the same folder edit VK2023_PLAY.bat
find
start medieval2.exe @mods\vanilla_kingdoms_2023\VK2023.cfg
replace with
start medieval2.exe @mods\teutonic\VK2023.cfg

6- run VK2023_PLAY.bat to play
