Description
Empire Reborn/Holier Nation are a series of mods that seek to increise and expand upon Kenshi's most important factions, the United Cities, this is done by using armors, buildings, interiors, weapons and assets made by a plethora of talented modders, bringing new life to the lands of kenshi.

How it works:

-Empire Reborn: United Cities Overhaul is a complete npc and worldstate overhaul of the United Cities, with many new units, squads, overrides and dialogue.
-Empire Reborn: Bast War expands the Bast region with new locations, overrides and squads, it needs Empire Reborn: UC Overhaul to work.
-Empire Rebuilt: Cities Overhaul is a standalone mod that overhauls towns, slave mines and villages of the Northern United Cities.
-Empire Reinforced: New Forts, a standalone mod that adds fortresses to the United Cities territories.
-Empire Villages: New Towns, expands the empire peasants faction with the addition of six new villages placed around the domains of the United CIties, each with it's own history and characters to find.
-Empire Reborn: Heft is a overhaul of the city of Heft, it's now integrated within Empire Rebuilt as a standalone.
-Empire Reborn: Tengu's Palace is a minor standalone mod that overhauls the UC HQ at Heft.
-Holy Villages: Completely overhauls the old Holy Nation Farms of the base game into new, bigger and more interesting villages with new interiors and worldstates.
-Holier Mines: Overhauls the Holy Mines with new designs and interiors
-Holy Crops: Adds crops to the outside area of Holy Nation cities

The rest of the collection are the dependencies for the mods above or compatibilty patches, you only need the ones listed under the mods you choose to download, or you can install the entire collection.

Features:

-Integrated new armors into dozens of characters, from samurais and paladins to rebels to peasants, with a focus on remaning lore friendly as possible.

-New characters, camps and squads that fill the lands with interesting new encounters to enhance the rpg experience.

-Added hundreds of new dialogue lines and dozens of packages for both unique and common npcs to add flavour to the world.

-Overhauled old locations with new buildings and interiors to make some regions feel a lot more unique and "cultural"

-More than a dozen new towns and points of interest, from fortifications to villages with unique worldstates and interactions.

-Special focus on being as customizable as possible, instead of it being a single massive mod that changes and affects hundreds of areas making compatibility with other overhauls hard, every single addition is uploaded separately and as a standalone (if possible)


LOAD ORDER
The general concepts for the load order are:
-Compatibility patches go at the top unless stated otherwise, overriding all other mods
-Addons like Bast War go above the original mods
-Other overhauls like Kaizo and Reactive world should go above my mods but below the compatibility patches as stated before.

The entire collection should look like this in your mod.cfg file: load order

For more information about load orders follow the amazing guide made by Atlas , it applies to every single collection and modlist that exists and is really easy to follow.

Thanks:
To every single modder in this collection, for their fantastic mods that make possible this whole idea in the first place!
