Quick Note(Last updated 11/11/2022)
It seems the Overhaul is incompatible with armor mods used by the mod itself, such as Swadian Armory. I'll have to see if there is a way to fix this, but for now, removing them from your mod list is recommended. Now that Bannerlord has Steam Workshop support, I will be trying to add the mod there. So, if you prefer the convenience of the workshop, you can download it from there as soon as I get it functional.
Overview
Bannerlord Overhaul is a complete rework of all troop trees and most weapons and armor. The goal of this mod is to provide the player with more variety in gameplay while still remaining lore-friendly and balanced. You'll find many troop trees completely reworked with all new weapons and armor previously unused by vanilla. Not only are these troop trees reworked and balanced for each faction, but also provide historical reference to real-life warriors. Many hours were spent attempting to perfect each troop as if they were each a single project. Please enjoy and make your next play-through the most engaging Bannerlord experience you've ever had.
Features
A complete rework of all factions' troop trees, noble and common
Reworked troop trees made in the purpose of balance and unique properties between factions
Many new weapons and armor including bows, crossbows, arrows, bolts, swords, and unique armor models
Two-Handed Maces and other integrated crafting pieces
All crossbows have been fixed to properly scale to bows
Improved Survivability for low tier troops
And so much more

Troop Tree Summaries

Spoiler:  
Show
Vlandia
Spoiler:  
Show
Vlanida - A mixture of Western culture. Featuring deadly crossbowman, an archer tree, powerful cavalry, a reworked infantry tree, and 3 noble tier 7 lines.



Battania
Spoiler:  
Show
Battania - Based loosely off of the Gallic tribes. They have a complete rework to fians to be less OP(although still extremely strong). They have a very deadly repertoire of barbarian soldiers and tactics, one of the more unique factions respectively.




Sturgia
Spoiler:  
Show
Sturgia - Mostly based off of Norse background, with some Rus mixed in there. Sturgia's premise has been changed to heavy infantry, while still having excellent archer and noble cavalry trees. The mix of Varyag and Norse powers make them a very strong faction indeed.



Empire
Spoiler:  
Show
The Empire - Based heavily off of the Roman and Byzantine empires. Featuring the most diverse trees of all the factions, the empire can pick apart their enemies however they so chose.



Khuzait
Spoiler:  
Show
Khuzait - Mostly based off of many different Chinese dynasties - and a bit of turk here and there. Khuzait is armed to the teeth with their archers and cavalry. Also consists of powerful cavalry, strong missile units, heavy sword infantry, and a branched tier 7 noble tree.



Aserai
Spoiler:  
Show
Aserai - Inspired by Persian and Middle Eastern culture. Aserai comes fully equipped with strong archers and cavalry, while not being the weakest with their infantry. An excellent all around faction.



Mercenaries
Spoiler:  
Show
The mercenary tree has been revamped to be a worthwhile option for military purposes. They have a wide variety of troops you won't see in other factions, along with the most variation of equipment to simulate true mercenary gear.


Individual Troop Summaries

Spoiler:  
Show
Vlandia
Spoiler:  
Show
Vlandian Ailadroddman
Spoiler:  
Show
The Vlandian Ailadroddman is the best the west can offer with their missile technology. His repeating crossbow and medium armor is a force to be reckoned with.


Vlandian Pavise Champion
Spoiler:  
Show
The Pavise Champion is a direct upgrade from the sharpshooter. Accompanied with better armor, sword, and skills; however, he has the same crossbow as the previous tier.


Vlandian Yeoman
Spoiler:  
Show
With the skill in bows of other factions increasing, Vlandia has devloped their own take on the bow and arrow. The yeoman carries a strong longbow along with medium armor to compliment his style. Very good at taking out opponents from afar.


Vlandian Halbbruder
Spoiler:  
Show
A heavily armored soldier with a devastating armament, though sluggish on the battlefield. The Halbbruder Wields only his trusty, yet versatile, Poleaxe. He is most effective as a second line unit on the frontlines.


Vlandian Knight Banneret
Spoiler:  
Show
Vlandia's finest cavalry. Features heavy armor, an upgraded armament, better skills, and a vigorous Pureblood horse. The sound of the knight's steed strikes fear in all of Calradia


Vlandian Senior Marshal
Spoiler:  
Show
Vlandia's leading general. Comprised of heavy armor, fast moving speed, francisca throwing axes, and a cleaver so sharp it can slice three Sturgian heads in one swing. The marshal has pride in his troops, and leads with dignity.


Vlandian Milanese Chevalier
Spoiler:  
Show
Heavy Shock/Melee Cavalry. The Milanese chevalier focuses on extremely heavy armor and defense, while sacrificing mobility and outstanding offense.


Battania
Spoiler:  
Show
Battanian Oathsworn
Spoiler:  
Show
The oathsworn has been revamped to tier 6, including better armor, weapons, and skills. Although not the strongest infantry compared to the other factions, he still fits many roles that Battania needs.


Battanian Noble Horseman
Spoiler:  
Show
Battania's finest when it comes to mounted soldiers. Fitted with a fine spear, cavalry sword, and heavy armor to trample the enemies from the east and west.


Battanian Ironborne
Spoiler:  
Show
The Ironborne is a unique class of Battanian might. He's equipped with top-of-the-line plate armor, a deadly polearm, a steel shield, and throwing axes to catch those fleeing imperial dogs.


Battanian Elite Wildling
Spoiler:  
Show
The elite wildling is an excellent skirmisher troop. With heavy-medium armor, a shield and axe, and many javelins, the wildling becomes a powerful foe on the battlefield.


Battanian Teulu Dewr
Spoiler:  
Show
The teulu dewr is the most elite archer in the lands. He has medium armor, an extremely deadly bow, and a falx just for good measure. Not even the heavy armor of Sturgian infantry can stop this monster.


Highland Mormaer
Spoiler:  
Show
The title "Mormaer" originates from highlander history as "great officer." The mormaer has very heavy armor, throwing axes, and an incredibly strong two-handed sword. The most efficient melee combatant that Battania can offer. The highland warlord gauntlets have a visual bug in Bannerlord's current version. They may be changed for the mormaer if it becomes an outstanding issue.


Sturgia
Spoiler:  
Show
Sturgian Huskarl
Spoiler:  
Show
The huskarl is Sturgia's strongest common infantry. With axe in hand and shield in the other, the huskarl becomes a worthy foe.

Sturgian Valkyrie
Spoiler:  
Show
This female warrior possesses the strong melee capabilities given by the goddess, Freya. The valkyrie utilizes a two-handed sword, a deadly one-handed sword, and javelins. Compared to her huskarl counterpart, she trades lighter armor and a smaller shield for better movement speed and melee damage. Be weary of these foes on the battlefield, for their appearance can deceive unprepared opponents.


Sturgian Hirdman
Spoiler:  
Show
The Hirdman is the main backbone of the elite soldiers of the north. Their ferocity with the two-handed axe makes them very strong opponents.


Sturgian Einherjar
Spoiler:  
Show
The Sturgian einherjar is a legendary foe and fearsome skirmisher. He carries a very special polearm titled the "mangler," over a dozen javelins, and heavy armor. A very unique and terrifying opponent.


Sturgian Fiendish Luchnik
Spoiler:  
Show
Sturgia has refitted its archers to be more competitive with other factions. The fiendish luchnik has the fastest bow in all the lands along with medium armor.


Sturgian Druzhinnik Boyar
Spoiler:  
Show
The royal guard and tenants of the hierarchy, veteran elite noble soldiers. Their mounts can trample over many Vlandian pigs before stumbling. Equipped with heavy armor, lance, sword, and shield.


Ullr's Champion
Spoiler:  
Show
A warrior who has proven his marksmanship to be unmatched. The Ullr's Champion has a powerful bow, heavy-medium armor, and a sword and shield. Truly the best marksman the gods have given.


Odin's Champion
Spoiler:  
Show
Chosen by Odin himself. Odin's Champion has some of the strongest armor in all of Calradia, albeit this makes him slower than other troops. He wields the mighty "Mjolnir," a devastating weapon given by Thor to demolish the pagans. Excellent against other heavily armored opponents.


Empire
Spoiler:  
Show
Imperial Vanguard(Retired)
Spoiler:  
Show
The Vanguard is no longer in the lands of Calradia, all the other factions deemed he was too OP and kicked him to the curb. If you wish to still use him, you can activate him in the npccharacters file. The imperial vanguard is an excellent all around troop. Featuring an unparalleled crossbow in its damage and accuracy, the Vanguard also is accompanied by heavy armor. If you see this troop on the battlefield, its best to hide behind your shield.


Imperial Centuri
Spoiler:  
Show
A fearsome warrior and commander from another time. The Imperial Centuri takes no regard for his enemies and leads his troops to the end. Features a gladius, scutum, and pila to dismantle the enemy.


Imperial Elite Menavliaton
Spoiler:  
Show
The Empire's pride and joy on the battlefield. Comes equipped solely with his wits and trusty menavliaton. His armor is unmatched by even some of the most heavily armored units of the other factions. Keep your distance, or get in close to effectively dispatch this foe.


Imperial Varangian Guard
Spoiler:  
Show
As the elite unit of the empire, the varangian guard shows no mercy to his enemies. Features a two-handed axe, heavy armor, shield, and sword.


Imperial Grivpanvar
Spoiler:  
Show

Imperial Clibanarii
Spoiler:  
Show
The clibanarii is the empire's elite horse archer. Featuring a strong bow, many arrows, heavy-medium armor, and a lance. Although not as strong as the horse archers to the east, they still are a worthy adversary.


Imperial Royal Palatine Guard
Spoiler:  
Show
The royal palatine guard is the elite private guard of the lords across the empire. Features heavy armor, a strong bow, and sword. A platoon of these men can single-handedly take out a small army of enemy grunts.

Khuzait Hun Grandmaster

An ancient warrior presiding from the east. The hun grandmaster has a very special bow, light-medium armor, and a fast horse. These archers are known for their great accuracy and speed.


Khuzait Cuman Komutan
Spoiler:  
Show
The Cuman Komutan is a foreign general that knows all there is to warfare and combat, coming fully equipped with heavy armor, sword, shield, and bow and arrows. A very well balanced unit, although lacks overwhelming strength in one area.


Aserai
Spoiler:  
Show
Aserai Immortal Infantry/Archer
Spoiler:  
Show
The Immortals are Persian warriors from the past, equipped with bows, daggers, swords, sabres, wicker shields, and too much equipment to fit on one soldier(in bannerlord). Therefore, they have been split into both the infantry and archer lines. Both look similar, but function very differently. 



Aserai Mameluke Warden Cavalry
Spoiler:  
Show
The mameluke warden is a strong horse archer/cavalry equipped with a bow, long sabre, and shield. A tough opponent even for the eastern heretics.

Aserai Sentinel Faris

Spoiler:  
Show

Mercenaries

Hired Guard
Spoiler:  
Show
The hired guard is a defensive heavy troop, with heavy armor, a shield, and sword. And overall excellent mercenary.


Hired Repeaterman
Spoiler:  
Show
Just as the title entails, a mercenary who got his hands on a repeating crossbow and some bolts. He may not be as skilled as the Vlandian sharpshooters, but he still boasts powerful firepower.


Adventurier
Spoiler:  
Show
A wanderer of the lands who wishes to share his skills in the armies of Calradia. The adventurier wields a crossbow, two handed sword, and heavy-medium armor. A strong mercenary who will fight to the end-for a fair share of coin, of course.
