Hello there everyone! We are happy to announce that just in time for the 10 Year Anniversary of our first game, Mount & Blade: Warband - Napoleonic Wars, a new Full Conversion Mod for Battle Cry of Freedom has been announced.
Called "Age of Napoleon" the Mod, made by our Community Members Aztir, Valk and DaMonkey is set in the year 1810, during the height of Napoleon's reign, and will feature two fully modeled Factions: France and Great Britain.
The Mod uses assets from the popular L'Aigle modification made by Docm30 (Jackson) for Mount & Blade: Warband.
While we are eager to show you more footage and reveal more information, the "Age of Napoleon" Mod Team has requested to keep most of the details a secret for now...
All we can say is that the Mod will release on May 15th, 2022. So stay tuned!
Napoleonic Themed Linebattle Event - May 15th 9:00PM CET
To celebrate the Mods release, we will be hosting a Special Napoleonic Themed Linebattle Event.
The Event will take place on the 15th May at 9:00 PM CET (3:00 PM EST).
The Rules and more information about the event will be published at a later Date.

Battle Cry of Freedom Patch Details
We are currently working on implementing a number of larger features and are finalizing the big Optimization Patch (More on that at a later date), so the changelog is not very long and mostly features smaller bug fixes and quality of life changes.
