Thanks Dimos, for welcoming me. Although I have pointed out several negative things above let me assure you that I really appreciate playing this mod. It is wonderful to walk around in Lisbon or Venice and the other towns that have a well-worked and much improved scenery. The University of Cordoba is a good idea! I understand there must an enormous amount of work behind this. You are a stayer! Also the monastery in Sinai (I believe) is magnificent! There are some unexpected details that make me smile – like the falling bridge in Four Ways Inn. A lot of other details as well, food and other items scattered around on tables etc. contribute to the feeling that there are actually people living here.
The tavern fight in Rome is great!
Back to bug-reporting:
When fighting faction parties the cavalry of enemy troops almost always dismount at the beginning of the battle and join the infantry. I have observed this in all the battles I have had: fighting the Scots, French, Egyptians, Kingdom of Navarre, and Lithuanians. The various mounted bandits and deserters do not do this – except on one single occasion when all the mounted mountain bandits stepped down from their horses. Intended or a bug? I can see little tactical reason for them dismounting. It is more fun fighting mounted enemies, and after all this is Mount & Blade!
