Military Reforms

Description
(Formerly Custom Troops)
I made this mod for myself (to play around in free mode mostly) but I decided to release it for the community to try. My focus was on changing the things I didn't like about vanilla troops, which means some changes may not be balanced properly, so beware of that.

Changes to Troops:
Unit descriptions rewritten from scratch (Eng only)
All units are now more specialized and able to fulfill a specific role
All casters received spells that the AI can handle correctly
Rune heroes have been reworked, they are now much stronger and have a specialized class each
Swarm and Siege units are available in OoD and BoW campaigns
Please note that the mod changes ONLY the troops that you recruit from monuments.

General Changes:
Attribute requirements for leveling up skills removed (Attribute Freedom)
No need to grind for levels, leveling is made a bit easier
Rework of Mage equipment, less shields available but robes have more AC
...and much more!

For the complete list of changes please check the "Articles" section or the Changelog file included in the archive.
Compatibilty:
The mod was developed and tested for the latest "public version" beta version on steam, it works on 1.61 too, the mod is not compatible with any mod that changes the Gamedata.cff file.

Special thanks to: Te4mRaZeR, Alex18sb, Hard Matrioshka and Weteran for helping me with feedback and ideas.
All the screenshots in this page are using textures from "Spellforce Re-texturing Project" by Goldfinch, which you can download from Nexus.

Personally, I have an error page with the MOD (I only have this mod installed on this game). I can't show a screenshot here but here's the message displayed when I launch a game with a freshly created character in free play mode (solo).

The message : SpellForce critical error : UiUtilCompose.ccp(1925) : error: assertment failed Message: UiUntilCompose:: TokenParseDecimalDef(): invalid Token at position 53

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Hey anyone tried this with one of the graphics boosting mods? Thinking firstly of the AI Upscaling mod that is here on the workshop.

Hey guys, I found this ReadMe in the workshop folder for this mod, and it seemed to work for me!

I only use this mod, but after the last patch they did, it doesn;t work anymore for me.

@macadamstreet As a rule of thumb, you can only use 1 mod that affects gameplay at a time because they're not compatible with each other. I know it's not the answer you wanted, but it's better to stick with 1 mod only, because mix and match will not work most of the time (you can still use the texture mod obviously, since it doesn't affect gameplay).

nice. so that also mean i could eventually use only the "item" mod from the other ? it could be compatible (if it exist, i think.)
