Boot and Hoof: Roving Commanders

This mod creates small groups of commanders and troops that move around the map.

Why you want this mod:

Without this mod, independent provinces have fixed defenders determined at the start of the game. These defenders stay in place, and do not move around the map. While there are certain events that may spawn independents that attack the players, and while a few of these groups of independents do move around the map, independents generally stay in place.

With this mod, certain independent provinces spawn small groups of independent commanders and troops that move around the map. You may encounter these roving commanders when attacking an independent province or when they move into your provinces. If you are looking for a more dynamic world and game, this mod is for you!

Limitations:

This mod creates commanders and mounted commanders with small groups of militia, light infantry, heavy infantry, archers, crossbows, light cavalry, and heavy cavalry that spawn in independent provinces of the appropriate poptype. It does not create wizards, barbarians, tribespeople, or other miscellaneous independent types. These units may be added in other mods at a later date.

One of the ways this mod determines if a province is independent (and therefore eligible for roving commanders to spawn in) is by checking if the province defense is less than or equal to 0. However, this event command has a +/-25% variability to the check, and the game may count +25% of 0 as 1. If there are roving commanders spawning in your 1 PD provinces, this is why.

This mod may reduce the number of events in the early game, due to adding events that can occur in independent provinces.

This mod may make isolated provinces (such as islands) more dangerous to attack as the game goes on. This is because if the roving commanders have nowhere they can go, they will stay in the same province.

This mod should be compatible with other mods that add units to the game. It may have unexpected results when combined with mods that add or modify poptypes. There has been a report of weird interactions with the Spark of Divinity mod--this should now be fixed.

Be aware that this mod makes the game more difficult, especially during the early game.

This mod is recommended for use with the Roving Wizards, Roving Amazons, Roving Cavedwellers, and Roving Tribes mods, but all mods function independently of each other.

Load order: Activate after other mods that add units to the game.
