in the ensuing battle with the vile Beastman, Dott Barthos was grievously wounded. With the last of his remaining strength, The blow sheared the Beastman's skull clean in half, though breaking Barthos' sword in the process. Pressing the advantage, Dott and his men pursued the fleeing Beastmen through the woods, eventually dispatching them all.

-Knights Encarmine-
„Founded by the rich dilettante Frederici Tolscano of Tilea in 2310 IC, the Knights Encarmine are a flamboyant, foppish band of warriors. This may have something to do with the fact that the Order is comprised entirely of the rich and privileged. Still, wealth alone is not a guarantee of entry, as there are very strict and rigid guidelines concerning who may actually join the Knightly Order. Members of the Knights Encarmine eschew the "lowly" shield, as it is a "commoner's defence" to hide behind a metallic barrier in battle. Instead, the Knights Encarmine practice a secretive two sword combat technique pioneered in Tilea. Despite their often intolerable nature, the Knights Encarmine are very welcome when battle is finally joined.“

Info:
hi folks,
i was looking for a SFO mod that would bring more knights to the game with less units and
without neglecting the original units too much.
I like the SFO mod, so i try to balance the units as much as possible for SFO. The Units have been completely revised and are balanced for different requirements.
Currently are 5 orders of knights and two RoR unit been added.
Maybe i will add more knights in the future.

  • A new campaign would be good that all content works properly!
  • So far, no conflicts with others SFO mods have occurred.
  • Its only balanced for SFO.

From what I saw of other mods similar to yours. They had a lot of reskins or just too many units for me. So I think I’ll give porting your mod a go. Thank you for the permission!

hi,
unfortunately i don't have time anymore for modding. you're welcome to port the mod.
