horse hoof dust effect has been made less intense to avoid confusion with bullet hits. may cause slow downs on older PCs.let me know! in tests with battle size set to 300 the FPS drop was negligible on my mid-range PC. it now lasts a few seconds longer than before and will get larger before fading completely. bullet hit particle effects redone - look far better than previous version. all gun sounds now have enhanced/longer echos. musket smoke now grows larger before dissipating. may post a video later if there is interest.

thanks to editing of the module system, I was able to add in 6 close range firing sounds, 6 medium range firing sounds, 11 (!) distant firing sounds, 10 bullet hit sounds, and 5 bullet snaps creating an exceptionally larger variety of sound. i highly recommend playing in a big game if you can find one. verified that this mod works completely on any multiplayer server.

Waves 1-7 are removed from Vet and Elite waves.

More Troops in co-op multiplayer mode(including ottoman empire).

While exploiting the same countryside, they appear too late for a mod starting in 1642. Many or most of these new brigands were disbanded or deserting Scottish soldiers, following defeats by Parliamentary forces and General Monck's occupation of Scotland. Moss troopers did not make an appearance in historical records until 1646. I have used poetic licence to retain the name border reivers and mount them as their forebears wearing some steel bonnets and jack of plate armours. This mod includes these later day brigands. These brigands included sons and grandsons of the original border reivers, but was nothing approaching a return to the institutionalised family/clan raiding system which blighted the previous century. However, on the outbreak of civil war brigandage returned, exploiting a lack of 'joint commissions and justitiarie' who had policed the borders.

The Reiver families/clans were broken up with thousands forcibly transported to Ireland. Lawlessness was curbed on the border of England and Scotland by King James I after his unification of those kingdoms.

Anxious to release royalist troops from garrison duty in Ireland, for use against Parliament, King Charles is negotiating with the Catholic confederates under a temporary truce, and considering the legitimisation of catholicism in Ireland. The king has raised his battle standard in Nottingham and moved his court to Oxford. Each set of rebels claims loyalty to his majesty while taking up arms against him.

Parliament has ejected the king from his capital, London, and is raising England's trained bands to defend its constitutional rights and the protestant reformation. Catholic confederates have retaken much of Ireland. Presbyterian covenanters have thrown King Charles and his bishops out of Scotland, occupying northern England.
