Vanilla - Army stances overhaul

THIS IS THE VANILLA THRONES OF BRITANNIA VERSION OF MY ARMY STANCES OVERHAUL MOD

As a fan of historical realism and challenging gameplay, I decided to revamp the army stance and supply systems. For now, the mod only updates the three stances found in the base game. I plan to add a new Forced March stance in the future (if possible). Naval stances have also been revamped.

What’s new:

Default stance: Costs -20 supplies per turn. You can survive 5–10 turns in friendly territory without resupplying, but in enemy lands you’ll need to raid, sack, or occupy villages to stay operational.

Fortify stance: No longer allows replenishment or recruitment. Provides +3 morale, -50% attrition from snow/swamp, and costs 75% of your total campaign movement range to assume, a real commitment.

Raiding stance: Now the only stance that lets you “live off the land”, granting +20 supplies. Other mechanics remain mostly unchanged.

Garrisoning armies: Grants +50 supplies. Towns and cities are now the central hubs for full replenishment and recruitment. Replenishment in friendly territory still occurs, but at a minimal rate (like vanilla).

Sieges: Now consume -30 supplies per turn, making prolonged sieges far more risky. You’ll need to engage in combat or carefully manage resources to avoid heavy losses.

The goal is to force meaningful tactical decisions. Armies can’t endlessly roam the map and you’ll need to plan your movements between settlements, manage supplies carefully, and use raiding strategically.
