About this mod
This POC config, built for Erik's Troops (Europe1100 submod), adds diversity to your troops shields and banners, with historical designs and coats of arms.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
What to expect from this config :
→ E.g. : An English knight will always carry an English shield and banner… even if he fights for Byzantines or Almoravids.
(²) Troopers have basic shields but will carry banners of the faction they fight for (if used with Raise your Banner/Carrier mod).
→ E.g. : A Castilan trooper will always keep his shield's basic design but he will carry a Frankish banner if he fights for Francia.
Additionnal notes :
Installation :
- Lords (kings, dukes, counts) have a determinate coat of arms displayed on their shield/banner.
- Noble troops (ex : knights and squires) have random heraldic shields¹, from lower nobility.
- Low tier troops (ex : serjeants and footmen) have more basic solid-coloured shields²
→ E.g. : An English knight will always carry an English shield and banner… even if he fights for Byzantines or Almoravids.

Additionnal notes :
- This template works whether you are a commoner, a clan, a vassal or a ruler (existing kingdom or independant kingdom).
- For a more immersive gameplay, colored reticles above troops can be removed : Options / Gameplay / Set "Friendly troops banners" opacity to 0.
- Customizing a POC config following your tastes can be tricky. Feel free to ask for support : Discord
- I’m also open to any suggestion to improve it. So feel free to report if anything looks strange :
- Some shields (other than yours or your companions) displaying your personal coat of arms.
- Some shields or banners whose pattern looks messy, incomplete or inappropriate.
- Some shields (other than yours or your companions) displaying your personal coat of arms.
- But please stop reporting :
- All banners and shields not displaying your personal coat of arms and being randomized.
- Low-tier troops carrying solid-coloured shields.
➔ That’s how it is supposed to work !!! If you don't like it, don't use it.
- All banners and shields not displaying your personal coat of arms and being randomized.
- In its current state, Raise your banner ruins POC banners randomization. Choose Carrier mod instead. If you want to play with RYB anyway, put POC after it in your modlist.
Installation :
- Download here and unzip "PocColor" folder into Modules folder (Make sure to delete the previous PocColor folder if you already have one)
- Enable "Poc Color Randomizer" in your launcher
