Here is the mod list I played with last time. 99% of it worked fine and was pretty cool. Later in the campaign there are way touger mobs that start showing up.

Might try again soon using a collection like that. Been some time now since I did a run. Problem I've always had with modding it (not using mod collections) was that adding difficulty mods felt like a constant chain of needed mods. One makes it near impossible, but is balanced around another which makes it too easy again, so you need another, which has mobs that are balanced around classes/skills not in the base game, so you need to add those, which makes encounters where you don't face those mobs too easy, so there is another mod for that, but then you need.....

Then in the middle one things breaks everything because that isn't updated.

Hes got a mod team that does these for him. They are balanced and all the bugs worked out before the youtube vods hit. He records them ahead of time. When I played it was good, the only bugs were with the clothing the soldiers were using. some worked, some did not, but thats an easy fix. Just go into the soldier and modify them. You can also go into his discord and download all of the soldiers his followers make and submit to him. I did that as well.

But gameplay wise, the shit just worked right out of the box. If you want the full list of changes and what it does to the game, watch the first episode, he goes over all of that, plus the in game settings you should be using.
