(RBM) Realistic Battle Mod

This version of the mod is for live version of the Bannerlord (1.2.9).
Version for beta (currently there is no BL beta) can be usually found here https://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/791?tab=files

This mod makes combat more realistic. Armor values are based on experimental data. Armored units are more resistant to damage depending on weapon type used vs armor. Each weapon type has different effect vs armor. All units defend themselves more, units with shields actually use the shields. All projectiles now cause damage based on their kinetic energy. Kinetic energy of projectiles is result of simulation based on real life experimental data. All battles are significantly longer now. Damage of horse charge is physics based, couched lancing is scientifically accurate. AI armies use more tactics. Spears are buffed in melee in comparison to vanilla and much more. Arenas are more fair, more rewarding and have multiple stages of progress. Many castles and towns have improved defender positions. Units fight in formations instead of messy clump.

Features:
The mod contains multiple modules (Combat, AI and Arena) and settings (active only if their respective module is active which can be toggled on / off in the game main menu.
