Wolfmans Brothers in Arms v1.1

UPDATED to latest game patch (1.12)

Hi Folks,

this mod adds unique elite units for all major factions, to spice up your forces a bit.
Any of these brothers in arms is worth at least 2 standard soldiers. Consider them as hired swords, though you can recruit them as regular unit. The warbands consists of men from all over the ancient world. Men who seeks gold and fame, men who lost everything and have started over as mercenaries. If you can pay their price, they will be a very very valuable asset to your forces. You are outnumbered? These are the units you want to have in your army. They can turn a battle - if well used. They´re not available in big numbers like regular units. They are special mercenaries and therefore they will have a unit cap (sorry :)

This is a "mod in progress". I will improve some details and add other special units soon. Keep you in the loop. Before you subscribe read the mod description.
