Are there any 'must have' mods or 'essential' add-ons for the game anyone can recommend?
Thanks,
Ian
I have to turn off dep to get it to work.
As for mods I recommend you only add a graphics one called svn to begin with
Medieval Real Time, Mount and Blade style Historical Combat.

However the reason I only recommended svn was because it gives u the opportunity to play the vanilla campaign through with the best possible graphics

Vanilla campaign with graphics mod or super complex computer killer mod?

I did install the Complex mod but I'm sticking with the campaign for now.
