For Maximum Player Challenge
Fully compliant with KCD 1.9.2
Current Version: 2.0
Last Updated: July 16th, 2019
This mod represents my ongoing attempt to make combat in the mid to late game more challenging in a light-weight mod that maintains maximum compatibility with other mods.
Blood and Iron is meant to increase the game’s challenge. It can be used stand-alone or combined with other mods that also increase game difficulty such as Dark Times, Immersive Balance, IMFB, KCD Combat Rebalance, Knoxogoshi's Ultimate Realism Overhaul (my personal reccomendation) or whatever you choose.
It only modifies two files but they are important ones, common to most such mods. It is a bit harsher than the mods listed above and so, when used in conjunction with them, will kick up the difficulty another notch.
MOD FEATURES:
MOD FEATURES:
*Stamina costs are increased
*Stamina regeneration is reduced
*Damage scaling from Strength and Agility significantly reduced
*Enemies are more aggressive, especially in groups
*Window for perfect block narrowed significantly
*Riposte is more common with perfect block if you have been trained in it
*Enemies perform perfect block and riposte more often
*Higher Bow skill allows longer duration of aim
*Enemies will pursue you much longer
*Serious injuries (limb damage, etc) take MUCH longer to heal on their own
*NPC's field of vision is now more realistic
*Digestion speed is increased
*Fatigue rate is increased
*Strength has greater effect on carry weight
*Maintenance skill has greater impact on level of repairs that can be done
*Item condition now affects resale value
*Stay clean longer after washing or visiting a bath house
*Get dirty more gradually
NOTES:
INSTALATION:
*If you do not already have one, create a folder in your main game folder called “Mods”
*Extract this mod in the Mods folder, NOT the Data folder
Merging with other mods: This mod has been named so as to load late in the mod order but when using a mod merger, make sure to give priority to this mod’s file versions.
A Note on Blood and Iron combined with Ultimate Realism Overhaul: B&I allows for slightly faster skill increases than URO but is harsher regarding combat, especially against multiple enemies.
Shameless Plug!
For anyone who still might play these things (I am an old bastard) I have a tabletop rpg
called “Ashes and Empires” which you can get in pdf form on DriveThruRPG
