Fighters Guild Questline Overhaul includes:

-merged all my small Fighters Guild ( including FG Main Quests Overhauled )  mods into one
-about dozen new quests
-almost all Fighters Guild quests now have extra content
-possibility to side with Sjoring Hard-Heart without turning it into eagerly overenthusiastic venture
-new alternative ways of completing or failing the Fighters Guild quests while original way of completing quest remains unchanged
-warn, jail, persuade, chase away, enslave/sell, stage accidental deaths of ( bounty ) targets
-settle debt quests by killing creditors or debitors, pay debt yourself or forbid creditor from collecting the debt if you're in position of power ( player has House Grandmaster title )
-how you finish the quests will sometimes have consequences down the road e.g. knowing who is Hrundi's lover can impact Rels Tenim bounty quest.
-Tamriel Rebuilt content. Be careful who you double cross. Tamriel Rebuilt is not required for mod to function properly.
-minor Go to Jail cross cotnent. Go to Jail is not required for mod to function correctly.
-new AiPackages and cutscenes
-time based events
-possibility to become a steward of Ald'ruhn guild hall:
-recruit, promote/demote or expel guild members
-be careful who you recruit or some party may try to take the guild hall by force from you

-guild members will refuse to do quests or leave your guild hall if you don't treat them right

-half dozen new quests and new joinable faction the Verethi Gang ( Work In Progress )
-guild hall massacre if you play your cards right...
-Pemenie now has a bounty quest. You can do the quest yourself or send a NPC to do it and encounter your bounty hunter actually doing a job when you go to Pemenie's location
-peaceful resolution to Recovering Cloudcleaver quest compatible with Cloudcleaver for Good Guys. Unlike in Cloudcleaver for Good Guys you don't have to kill anyone

Showcase videos:
-chasing the Khajiit: (Morrowind.exe )
-chasing the Khajiit long video ( OpenMW.exe ) short video:  (music wasn't added at that time yet)

-public executions: https://streamable.com/1em6ab & https://streamable.com/e631q9

==================
To do
==================
Spoiler:  
Show

-Fix bugs I didn't caught. I could miss some I tried to test mod as much as possible on OpenMW.exe and Morrowind.exe
-Improve writing I often write on fly.
-expand the Verethi Gang content. The plotline will be about Thieves Guild and Camonna Tong vying over the turf ( I don't recommend to play through all Verethi Gang quests on serious savegame ).
-appoint new guild stewards if default one is dead or removed from position. Allow new stewards to give out Morrowind original quests
-free Ilden Mirel ( As a model prisoner the Temple releases Ilden Mirel from the Ministry of Truth by the first of Frost Fall. You find him at Sadrith Mora Fighters Guild hall )
-free Daglin Selarar quest

==================
Compatibility
==================

Don't use it together with my other Fighters Guild mods. This overhaul is merge of these small mods.

Fighters Guild Improved - incompatible use either Fighters Guild Improved or Fighters Guild Questline Overhauled - never both.
Morrowind Rebirth - likely to conflict
Sadrith Mora - seat of power of House Telvanni - Compatible after using patch. Use the patch found in optional files. After making a savegame you can remove the patch if you hit close to ESP limit. Advanced users type set SMSOP to 1 no need to activate the patch then.
Pretty Reckless - conflicts with FGQO. Place it above my mod. Some FG quests still will have rank requirement:
Spoiler:  
Show


Load order:
Morrowind.ESM
Tribunal.ESM
Bloodmoon.ESM
.....
The Pretty Reckless.ESP
Fighters_Guild_Questline_Overhaul.ESP
.....

Fighters' Guild and Redoran Skill Fix - compatible
Fighters Guild ReBuild in Sadrith Mora - compatible but minor conflict with duplicate Ilden Mirel  but it will be accounted for in the next update so you don't have two copies of Ilden Mirel NPCs when you use both mods together. Also if you want to play ReBuild in Sadrith Mora mod do the Rels Tenim bounty quest without getting anyone killed from the Fighters Guild in Wolverine Hall. Also don't allow Sondryn Irathi get enslaved.
Fighters Guild to Mercenary Guild - compatible until proven otherwise. I checked both mods in TES3View and there aren't any modbreaking conflicts.
Antares' Big Mod  - I examined the mod in CS it should be compatible and it fits nicely when you attain the rank of Master of the Fighters Guild.
Fighters Guild : Reanimation - should be compatible. I examined the mod in CS and didn't find any conflicts with FGQO
Cloudcleaver for Good Guys - compatible.
Earthly Delights - compatible.
Cutting Room Floor - compatible. Load Cutting Room Floor above/before my mod:

Load order:
Morrowind.ESM

Bloodmoon.ESM
.....
Cutting Room Floor - Quests.ESP / Cutting Room Floor - Merged.ESP
Fighters_Guild_Questline_Overhaul.ESP
.....

Dura gra-Bol's House Reclaimed - And the Grab-All Gang - compatible with some trade offs. Whichever ESP wins the conflict ( is lower in load order ) displays the dialogue from the winning ESP plugin for Dura-gra Bol topic for Dura-gra Bol NPC.
Safe to say if you want to keep Dura-gra Bol alive and be part of the Grab-All Gang place my ESP higher. Let Grab-All Gang ESP win the conflict.

Tel Aruhn Chronicles mod by Team Lazy Lame Corprus Stalkers - compatible if you
follow the load order:
Spoiler:  
Show
Morrowind.esm
Tribunal.esm
Bloodmoon.esm
...
...
...
Fighters_Guild_Questline_Overhaul.ESP
Tel_Aruhn_Chronicles.ESP

if you don't you will get clipping in Tel Aruhn slavemarket


Will conflict with mods that edit scripts:
anoScript
eydisScript
lorbumolScript
sjoringScript
staceyScript


Will conflict with mods that edit NPCs:
Helviane Desele ( minor - dance won't start )
Baurin ( minor she won't forcegreet you if you kill Hard-Heart )
Dura gra-Bol ( minor - you may see some inconsistencies like not getting her unique axe )

Per request I will provide compatibility patches for conflicting mods that edit vanilla records, clipping issues etc.

=====================
Fighters Guild Improved - is alternative overhaul.
=====================

FlinSunset's mod provides more streamlined and rounded up experience that adheres more closely to vanilla quest design. Highly recommended for lore buffs.

=====================
Known Issues or Bugs
=====================
I tested the mod as much as possible both on OpenMW and Morrowind.exe ( original engine). I squashed vast majority of the technical bugs. The mod grew in size over time I added new features and extended quests. I may missed something. Make a valid bug report and I will try to fix it.

Morrowind.exe  engine. Dwalin2012 and Gavrilo93 reported that chasing Khajiit scene halts with Khajiit stopping after running for a short time.
The chase works on my PC. Here is video from chase: https://streamable.com/6qbtw9
