About this mod
Just a save game on hardcore mode, with the "Brittle Bones" and "Nightmares" drawbacks. Made on the 1.9.6 GOG version of the game. There are 3 versions: at Skalitz, right before giving Theresa nails; Escaping Skalitz, after killing all the Cumans chasing Henry, and Talmberg. Notably, Maintenance, Herbalism, Drinking up to 20. and other skills etc.
- Permissions and credits
1) (1.0) at Skalitz, after killing EVERYONE at Skalitz, right before giving Theresa nails;
2) (1.1) Escaping Skalitz, after killing all the Cumans chasing Henry, and looting them (Girl saved also), looking at the best horse in prologue (better then Olena!);
3) (1.2) at Talmberg, after looting the whole castle and killing and looting some 6-12 people (I didn't count), looking at your horse, ready to ride out to Skalitz to bury your parents.
4) (1.3) Finally got to the grave, already dug up Beran's treasure under the dovecote, 5000~ weight, 1000's of herbs, 10 str., Ken, etc. All ready to start the digging, and start the game itself, finally.
5) (1.4) Probably final. Right after waking up in Awakening. 100 nourishment/energy. Ready to go to Peshek. All of those stolen items are now considered yours by the game. Enjoy!
NOTE: You are heavily overweight with 1000 or more units of weight. Make sure to download a weight mod or something, otherwise it'll be annoying.
IMPORTANT: To turn all stolen items you have into non-stolen items, you have to have all of them in your inventory when you start digging a grave for your parents, starting a cutscene leading to the game's real beginning. There are items in Henry chest at his home, so make sure to grab everything there, before digging the grave.
Henry killed everyone in Skalitz who can be killed, and looted every chest and body of everyone. Notably, Maintenance, Herbalism, Drinking up to 20. Other combat-related skills and stats up a few points. You have around 1000 groschen.
Done for myself really, so don't expect any support, mileage may vary, etc. etc. But then again, you don't really stand to lose anything if you try this mod, even if it doesn't work for you. Just make Sure to backup your save!
