About this mod

An in-depth Sturgian overhaul for all Nord enthusiasts!

If you were disappointed by the lack of Nords in Bannerlord, then this is a mod for you. It aims to give Sturgia a much more Norse identity, as well as buffing the faction a bit while still maintaining a vanilla feeling. A light to medium emphasis has been placed on historical accuracy, in other words Nord troops will still keep a small cavalry line, few pointy helmets and some of the more 'fantastical' Norse armor pieces.
Anyway, I hope you like the mod! Feel free to leave a thumbs up and comment if you do. It gives me a kick of dopamine and keeps me motivated. :)
I'm more active on Steam than on Nexus, so if you'd like to comment or have any questions, I'd prefer if you post them on the Steam Workshop page.

Main features:
More detailed lists of changes and trivia can be found on this mod's Steam Workshop discussion pages.
  • Sturgian troop names are now in proper old norse.
  • Sturgian troop equipment sets & skill distribution overhauled. Most units come in 2-5 equipment variants.
  • Sturgian noble troop tree is now all infantry based.
  • Sturgian culture renamed to Nord (kingdom is still called Sturgia though).
  • Sturgian vassals are now called Jarls and faction leader called Hilmir.
  • Sturgian lords & clans now all have norse names.
  • Changed or tweaked most Sturgian clan banners in some way.
  • Added one additional vassal clan (Borgarving) to Sturgia and transfered Mazhadan Castle to them (previously owned by the ruling faction Gundaroving).
  • All Sturgian lords have had their equipment sets changed. Most now fight on foot.
  • Sturgian towns, castles and villages have been given more norse sounding names.
  • Some items have been changed or fixed (mainly Sturgian noble swords).
  • Changed some nicknames of Sturgian wanderers that were lame.
  • Added a shieldmaiden/valkyrie minor faction and troop tree.
  • Added a Varangian minor faction and troop tree.
  • Added a Vaegir minor culture (to replace the original Nord minor culture) with a minor faction and troop tree.
  • Added a northern mercenary troop tree, available for hire in Sturgian and Battanian Taverns.
  • Replaced the Sturgian male & female namelists to be norse, and expanded them tenfold for nice variety.

Some other fixes, such as:
  • Sturgian infantry units without shield will prefer to stay at the back of a shieldwall formation.
  • Sturgian lords should prefer to be in correct formations; no more lonesome cavalrymen in the middle of infantry formations or vice versa.
  • Nord Militia archers, spearmen and caravan guards can be upgraded to their veteran versions.

Technicalities:
  • This mod is tested to work with Bannerlord v 1.0.1
  • NO dependencies.
  • Should be compatible with most things.
  • New game is required for some effects to take place, such as spawning of new clans, banners and namelists.
  • Languages: English and Spanish are currently supported.
