    BTW, I installed Carl's problem fixer a while back and have really enjoyed it, what little I have been able to play. You will notice a difference in the battles with the performance of you troops. Not only the shields, but the 2Handed fix is big as well. The results in a fight seem much more what I expect now, even though I didn't really notice what I was missing until after I installed the mod.

    Anyway, thanks to Carl, Foz, Lusted, et al. I appreciate the work you all have put in to making this game even more ejoyable.

    carl, great job on your guys' mod, i just installed it

    the kill rates dropped so much its like i am playing old mtw

    whatever this bug is it must have made spear militia have like 0 armor, my first campaign since using the mod and the early fights are actually interesting...but i may have to play on vh as opposed to hard now as this new kill rate gives the ai more time to screw up

    2 handers work perfectly now, the axemen look a little odd, and leads one to question who is training these men but its a small price to pay

    great job, who needs the patch
    And when the brazen cry of achilles
    Was heard among the trojans, all their hearts
    Were troubled, and the full-maned horses whirled
    The chariots backward, knowing griefs at hand...

    You're quite welcome rrdew, and everyone else for that matter. I have to fix this stuff for myself anyway, so I guess I just figure I might as well do everyone else a favor and post it for them too

    As for the 2-handers, yeah that's a big one too. I was so happy recently when the enemy general's bodyguard (among other units) tried to plug a hole in the wall that my armored swordsmen were marching into... because my fixed dismounted english knights were headed for a second breach that the cavalry had just vacated to go after the earlier-arriving swordsmen. The dismounted english knights took off at a run, and slammed into the general's bodyguard from the rear. Talk about butcher's work. I don't think I've ever seen a general's bodyguard get hacked to pieces as quickly as that. It was awesome!

    I did mine for much the same reason. I had a working set of fixes for myself and lots of people where asking for combined Pike/Shield/2-hander fixes so i released it.
    Find my ProblemFixer Purehere.

    This ProblemFixer fixes the following: 2-Hander bug, Pike Bug, Shield Bug, Chasing Routers, Cav not Charging, Formation Keeping Improved, Trait Bugs, and Ancillary Bugs.

    BETA Testers needed for the current version of RebuildProblemFixer. Thread here

    Yes, I was able to rush a unit of billmen up to protect some archers from enemy cav, and they actually routed the cav. In another battle I was caught offgaurd by an invasion of the GBG units, and I only hade militia units near by. I was actually able to hold with my spears and flank with bills, to win the battle. I took loses, but still came out with a victory. I don't think I could have won this in vanilla.

    which unfortunately leads to a new problem of game difficulty, i'm leary of VH as it causes you to roll your eyes alot at what the ai units can do, its often like fighting an army of supermen, which isnt the challenge i signed up for

    but with that said, id much rather play with these fixes than without
