UPDATED - Shield emblem changed to the emblem of Taal, god of nature and wild places. (LORE FRIENDLY)


It's me again, Kelstr !!

You guy's are probably getting sick of my mods by now haha... well, suck it up buttercup; here's another !!

I'm working on an overhaul mod for Bretonnia that will send Bretonnia on a Holy Crusade. I know it's not 100% lore friendly, but more like 80% lore friendly.

There was a crusade that sent Bretonnia into the heart lands of Arabby... I love that lore, but am saddened we don't have Arabby yet !! SOOO I said screw it and decided to work on the Crusade mod anyways because I love the look of crusader units for Bretonnia haha :)

For this "Holy Crusade" I decided to introduce the Monks of La Maisontaal Abbey.


Recommend mod to use with:

My Source of Lore:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La Maisontaal Abbey: An abbey of monks who worship Taal, god of Nature and Wild Places. Located on the Bretonnian side of the Grey Mountains[3b][13], its precise location is unclear. It was recently sacked by Heinrich Kemmler and Grey Seer Gnawdoom

The dev's also did a youtube video for the battlemap...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've included 2 versions of these guys...

1) Monks - Similar stats to the men-at-arms but with better leadership.
2) Mounted Monks - Similar to mounted yeomen but with better leadership.

I've added custom shields for these guys that are made from custom wood textures. (The shields have a holy crusader cross on them, as that's the emblem that is being used for my crusader mod).

I hope you guy's enjoy using these guys; I really love the idea of them. It counter-balances Warrior Priests from the empire, but not as high tier.

Please let me know what you think in the comments below !!!

Thanks,
Kelstr

I have the same empirekingdom I know its this mod as I've tested it. As soon as I even "disband" either of your monk units (this one and your mounted version) the game runs fine? I think it is a great mod by the pictures but if it isn't compatiable with any other mod that doesn't make any sense?

Game crash when I try to fight a real-time battle with my wood elves against Bretonnia. Bretonnia has 3 monk units in his army. The game crashes on battle loading screen. No problems with fights against Bretonnia when it has only Vanilla troops in its army.

So please update. Thanks.

I'm super swamped for time right now in real life. As soon as I have a week to sit down and catch my breath I will rebuild this unit and the Templar Knights too !! :)

I'm actually going to Creative Assembly for the Mod awards !!! I've been invited to attend the 2016 Mod awards AT the CA headquarters... so I'll be leaving for that this coming weekend :)

Super excited !!
