Before you read further I want to say something, please read carefully!:
First of all, THANK YOU! Thank you for subscribing this mod, thank you mod community that taught me how to do this all and thank you creators who give me their permission to use contents from their work. THANK YOU ALL!

Furthermore I didn't imagine how bis this specific project would become as I started it. Back to this day I created it because I thought Bretonnia needs something "crusader" like - well and no one done something like this before this day. That's why I thought why not implement the historical knightly orders that really existed/exists and would fit this theme in a perfect way - not lore wise but I think you get the point xD.

Well today is the 28th of April 2020 and I want to announce that this specific mod is now finished for me...
but not this project! - this specific mod will recive compatibility updates!
The following link will lead you to a more recent version of this mod:

So yes this was longer then expected but as I started writing it comes over me a bit...
At the end I want to say THANK YOU - again - and that this project is not dead...

Best wishes
Red

Description

This mod aims to add iconic knightly orders which are known for their efforts in the crusades to the three bretonnian main factions.
I know that this is not really Warhammer-lore friendly but who cares if you can have Templars, right?
Rapanse faction which was added with the free dlc is a bit special: due to an issue were it come to a crash when you try to build a military building I locked the Chapter halls to the three main factions. Anyway Rapanse is able to build the Church-chain and to use the Holy Knight units.

The screenshots above only show a small selection of units to give you an impression what range this mod covers.
From mounted knights over dismounted knights, two-handed swords- and axemen to halbardiers and spearmen - and it is fully up to you which units or order you choose, more about that below.
At the moment this mod has a total number of 52 new units.

Current added orders:
- Knights Templar
- Knights of St. John (Hospitaller Order)
- Order of Malta
- Teutonic Orders
- Order of Santiago
- Knights of St. Lazarus
- Order of Calatrava
- Order of Aviz
- Order of Alcantara
- some special/crossover units


All orders have a specific "Order Hall" and a technology.
You have to build the specific building and to research the tech alongside a additional recruitment building (for the stronger units) like carpenter or blacksmith to recruit the units you want.
Furthermore you will find a church building chain which allows you to recruit units that combine all orders.
So as I said it is up to you what combination you want: only the mighty and iconic Knights Templar or the strong and powerful Teutonic Order, none of these but the Knights Hospitaller in combination with the Order of Malta or like I prefer all orders together side by side on the battlefield?
This way of recruitment policy may sound complicate but offers you the advantage of a non-overfilled recruitment pool.
Just have a look to the screenshots for a better illustration.

Please before you request an update (because of changed game version/new patches etc.) make sure that my mod is really not working anymore or causing a crash.
The vanilla game launcher marks a mod as outdated as soon as the game version is changed - a changed game version might be not campatible with a mod anymore but most times it's nothing but a outdated mark.
If you have troubles with that simply use the mod manager linked below.
