KOTF mod

[econ21]

For those into stats, the unit stats in LTC seem to be very close - if not identical - to those in the "M2TW grand campaign with Kingdoms stats" mod. They are nicely presented in BrandyBarrel's FAUST for that mod:

Although the stats don't tell the whole story (due to the effect of animations), compared to vanilla, I noticed:

(1) Spears get a big boost - armoured spears have the same ATT and DEF as DFK now :eek:
(2) Missiles have ranged attacks unaltered, but tend to have melee ATT and DEF reduced a lot
(3) Cavalry get a minor nerf in stats (but also smaller units)
(4) Swords get a major nerf
(5) France does not get many two handers, but those dismounted nobles look tasty.

Anyone know how the early/high/late thing works? Are there fixed dates at which higher tier units are recruitable? Or does it just affect the initial starting situation.
