Original Thread with tons of Guides and Hints
Sword of Damocles Team:
Cyclohexane, Kuba, and MorrisB
We assembled a new SoD team representing Hungary, Poland, and the United States. The old teammates of SoD including FleshyStarfish, Mordachai, Shjn, Twan, and vonMistont have retired but their legend lives on.
All of the new eye candy I added would not be possible without Kuba’s mad programming skills. The man behind the scene has fixed hundreds of bugs and spent countless hours making this an awesome mod. MorrisB’s dialogs, history, and lore bring a new RPG feel and dimension to the game. It’s still the sandbox game we love, but the characters come alive. There are still a few known bugs, but they will not affect game play and this is definitely the most stable and fun version of SoD yet!
Why choose Sword of Damocles?
Sword of Damocles is the most complex and advanced kingdom management mod available. It does not simply add player's kingdom and lords under his command but it simulates kingdom management by adding population to fiefs, health, ability to create laws, reworking the economy, and construction of buildings. It allows the choice of faith which influences the kingdom, allows the building of religious structures, and grants special faith based troops.
Sword of Damocles offers a realistic army management system where military buildings are required to upgrade faction exclusive troops, army detachments can be created, and orders issued to lords through a Strategic Map. Mercenaries from 7 different guilds can be hired to fight and defend the newly conquered lands. On top of that, Sword of Damocles provides a background story without losing that M&B sandbox feel. The Imperial Legion has destroyed your homeland and now comes to conquer Calradia.
To fight the threat you'd better arm yourself. There are over 600 new items and 300 new troops; including 13 completely unique factions. Sword of Damocles also adds game play tweaks, graphical and performance enhancements, and many other features.
A few of the most popular are a strategy advisor that follows you to battle and provides information on all of the troops trees thru the camp menu, the ability to set up custom battles, a camera that allows you to observe the battle after you are wounded and not leave your soldiers as a prey for auto resolve system, formations and battle morale, custom graphics and new scenes, improved auto-loot to manage companions, companion management screen, seal pacts with guilds, guild representatives that will follow your council, etc.
