History & Chronology
2013-02-09 - Published at the official Runic Games Fansite named as "Humans as Pets with Equipment and Skill System" // Source[www.runicgamesfansite.com]
    The Skill System here was introduced immediately due to my first attempt for human companions with their own set of skills was a mess. Because back then, I simply put all respective skills of each class into its pet counterpart that results to an overpowered-emasculating-uncontrollable-human follower. So that's why i came up with a simplified approach that made almost all class skills into learn-able spells instead. In this way, players will have options to choose which combination of skills their companion can use for their preferred fighting style and at the same time gives the human companion its own variety of fighting style.

2013-02-10 - Changed the name to simply "Humans as Pets"

2013-02-10 - Acknowledged by a fellow modder // Source[www.runicgamesfansite.com]

2013-02-15 - First mod user review and issue, the incompatibility with Synergies mod // Source[www.runicgamesfansite.com]

2013-02-17 - First attempt to fix Synergies and Humans as Pets mod conflict issue

2013-02-24 - Introduced a separate mod file, the Synergies compatibility fix // Source[www.runicgamesfansite.com]
    By adding this fix along with Synergies mod and my Humans as Pets mod. With this, the game will not cause a crash at start anymore, will not conflict with KelinTor's merchant and will allow the functionality of my pet inventory modifications.

2013-04-29 - Introduction of new weapons exclusive only for Musha Class Companions, the Katana and Nodachi and their Mushato counterparts (Musha weapons w/ innate skills)

2013-05-04 - Mod update - Introduction of the "Penalty System" (30 sec knocked out instead of running around) and changed the mod name into "Brother-in-Arms (Humans as Pets MOD)"

2013-05-13 - Added the default Musha Class wardrobes // Preview[u.cubeupload.com]

2013-06-06 - Published at Steam's Workshop titled "Brother-in-Arms (Humans as Pets MOD)"
    Finally able to upload the mod here in Steam!! It took me awhile to earn enough money to buy the Steam version, it's the only way for me to publish it here too...

2013-06-06 - The renewal - Re-uploaded to Runic Games Fansite and removed the original mod download page due to the re-upload done by a community volunteer (converting PAK to MOD) that results to a reset of the download count and made it feel like archived.
