This is a submod for Between Empires that seeks to add East Asia in the early 20th century to Warband. With several time periods to start from, including the Warlord Era and Second Sino-Japanese War, Between Republics will cover a particularly tumultuous time in the region's history and introduce a plethora of factions and units with widely differing playstyles and rosters.

You'll need to restore the Qing by yourself, since the mod starts in 1927, long after the last restoration attempt failed; still, I'll be providing Qing-era equipment and regalia to the mod specifically for use by custom troops.

Will it be more friendly to players who don't want to start as nation leaders or will it be the same?

Yes; I'm overhauling many mechanics from vanilla BE in order to make adventuring more appealing.

For instance, the bandit parties that players usually fight in the early game have been separated into different tiers ranging from small looter bands to minor warlords/bandit societies commanding armies with hundreds of men. The bigger parties will be slower to prevent early-game players from needing to fight them.

Of course, feel free to mention any other gameplay features you may want changed; constructive advice is sorely needed :)

i would say make the camera free move after you die and not having to use the U key to look around because sometimes you just wanna watch the mess and not command
