Introduction
There aren't many mods for Fire and Sword as of now, but I still couldn't settle for one. So I decided to merge my favorites into one. Surprisingly, it worked. So then I thought, way not give back something to the community by sharing this. Then I found out that many mods for Warband also work for WFAS, so I started adding those...

Credit to the modders
Creating mods takes a lot of time and effort. A lot. I have huge respect for modders who spent hours and hours of work to create a mod and then share it for free. I'm not a modder. I only took what others created and merged it together. I want to thank the modders below for their great intiative in creating these mods and for allowing me to use them to create this mod pack. As of now, the following mods are combined in this pack:

Join any side of a battle 1.0 by NaglFaar http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,74859.msg1948844.html#msg1948844
Allows you to attack or support anyone you choose.

Other Changes
- Slightly more XP and quest rewards
- Faster starving in sieges
- Traditional faction colors
- Merchant money adjustment
- More and larger bandit spawns
- Some smaller changes

Language and Version
Since most mods don't come in 7 languages and I'm not that multi-lingual I settled for English. You can still use the mod pack with non-english versions, but you'll miss out on the language specific changes and see the vanilla texts instead. Tested on Fire and Sword 1.143. You should start a new game. This is a beta, because I don't have time to do extensive testing. Use at you own risk and don't get too attached to your save games, updates may not be savegame-compatible.
