Multiple Troop Trees
Troop trees show the progression of units for a given faction or group. Each of the six main factions have their own unique troop tree, and there are other troop trees besides. Different factions' troop trees specialize in different areas of combat, while others are balanced.
There are actually three separate sets of troop trees in the Floris mod, and you use one or another depending on the settings you choose at the beginning of the game. They are:
- Native Trees - These are the same troops used in the native Warband game. (Note: Some Floris troops slightly differ from the original Native ones.)
- Expanded Trees - These are the troop trees the Floris mod has used in versions prior to this feature being added. They are considerably more complex than the standard troop trees that came with the game. This is the default troop tree for the mod.
- Reworked Trees - This is a compromise between the Expanded and Native trees reducing the amount of complexity, while still adding more flexibility than the original troop trees.
The troops trees for your selected set may be found in-game under: Reports -> Reference Material
