Perhaps Merlin got free of the tree.

Apparently our Steam accounts both got hacked?  ::)

Oh dear, what a shame. You'll just have to make the best of it now.  ::)

Once you find out the source of the hack, you may want to check out the 1066 mod...

I confess I still haven't done so myself yet, even though I have it installed.  :doh:

That's the case with 99.9% of my games.

I'm gonna be lazy, and just quote myself from a few months back...  8) 



For mods that directly impact gameplay, these are the ones I most recommend: 

1.) ToB Enhanced Campaign
2.) ToB Enhanced Battles
3.) Extra Skill Points
4.) Global Weapons and Armor Upgrade

While it doesn't affect gameplay per se, it's also worth checking out the Better Camera Mod, as it allows you to zoom both closer in and further out during battles. 



Should you also be interested in mods that enhance the game's atmosphere and/or immersion levels: 

1.) Immersive Shields and Armies
2.) Shields Down While Marching
3.) Variation Pack Reborn



Enjoy!!

I have a few hours left to deliberate whether I pick up Thrones of Britannia or a couple of the culture packs to fill out the rosters for RTW2 and Shogun 2. I am trying to be responsible with my return to PC gaming and only picking up content or games I actually want to spend time playing.
