yes, another warband mod.
i love warband but i think the native gameplay need some changes and additions.
contrary to many other mods, the computer requirements are not driven in the height.

tocan's calradia try to improve the gameplay experience which makes m&b so fun,
by including the best mods, adding new features, fixing native bugs and some gameplay changes.

1.6 notes
this time nothing new but i decide to release this update because the lord private talk bug in 1.6 beta
save-game compatible with 1.6 beta saves

gameplay:
- the player can besiege castles with neutral relations

fixes:
- in 1.6 beta the player can't talk to other lords in private... this is now fixed (thx to king jerry + warass)
- companion: yareb the drunken mamluke cost you now 2700 instead joining your troop for free (thx to diessa for the hint)
- companion: companion dialog "tell me your story again" only once in the menu
- salt mine: sometimes you can't leave the scene. i don't know why this happens but now you can talk to barezan to leave the mine

all known bugs:
- freelancer: some errors have been reported. i try to fix it for the next release
- outpost: some level one scenes are empty (i have no scenes for it yet) but it works
please report me if you found something wrong
