Blackadder or: The History of the House of Blackadder in the Times of Richard the Lionheart

"The Black Adder", featuring a slightly altered timeline based on the 1980s British historical fiction sitcom Blackadder. Play as the young Edmund 'Chickenheart' Blackadder, forgotten and near-universally hated cousin of Richard the Lionheart! When the going gets tough, the tough hide under the table, but will the newly-landed Edmund rise to the responsibilities of the office he now holds? Or will he answer the call of the open road, as a landless adventurer with his two rubbish companions, Baldrick & Percy, at his side?

- Lord Flashheart and his band of Twenty Minuteers! Fresh from battle in Ypres, he has yet to strike out and make a proper name for himself, but fame and glory are less than a hair’s breadth away for the best sword, shot, sailor and kisser in all of Christendom.
- The positively demonic Ludwig the Indestructible! His group of masterful torturers, rogues, and infiltrators will have no trouble raising hell across the Holy Roman Empire — and perhaps England, too?
- Eaun MacAdder, the most dangerous man ever to wear a skirt in Europe, he believes himself rightful king of England for vague reasons, will he settle his rivalry with Clan MacAngus? Will he be able to accumulate the wealth needed for the purchase the Outer Hebrides?
- BLACKADDER ANCESTORS: playable Blackadders in 867 and 1066 in Surrey.

• EDMUND OF THE HOUSE OF BLACKADDER, our so-called hero.
  
• PERCY PERCY OF NORTHUMBERLAND, desperate hanger-on.
  
• LORD FLASHHEART, brave leader of the Twenty Minuteers.
  
• LUDWIG THE INDESTRUCTIBLE, Master of Disguise.
  
• ARCHBISHOP "MELCHY" MELCHETT, earnest lickspittle.
  
• "BOB", also known as KATE, androgynous servant.
  
• KATE'S FATHER... really? He's only credited as "Kate's father"?
  
• LADY WHITEADDER, religious fanatic. "Mods are the work of Beelzebub!"
  
• CLAN MACADDER, the most dangerous men ever to wear skirts in Europe.
  
• CLAN MACANGUS, the second most dangerous men ever to wear skirts in Europe.
  
• D'ARLING, highly-strung jobsworth.
  
• and also, BRIAN BLESSED as HENRY 'CURTMANTLE' II, the steaming great ox.

and also also, BALDRICK, the … uhh, hmm. Dogsbody?

Each is easily identified with the "Blackadder" trait.

currently the mod is *very* un-playtested, so if you encounter any issues, please feel free to report them.

everything is contained within its own files, and doesn't mess with anything outside of England in 1178, so it should be compatible with most mods. (Though this will have to change with time as the mod, and the level of alteration of history continues. Surprsingly, it's compatible with iPlayPoorly's Robin Hood as a Landless Adventurer, despite the huge overlap.

Roads to Power is technically not required, however, without it, both Flashheart and Ludwig will both be deleted, thus attempting to play as either will simply do nothing. Other DLCs were used for character cosmetics, but should not change the playability of the mod.
