1866 aims to bring the atmosphere of the most famous western movies to Mount and Blade. All the changes included are mostly just a patchwork of different elements borrowed either from other M&B mods or other games. The downside is I can't pincushion the enemy from across the map with my bow as they approach anymore, but I much prefer quicker battles to being able to pick off a few troops before they get in range. It’s a FANMADE revision and in no way attempts to be a continuation of the original mod. No more slowly marching across the field or waiting ages for their reinforcement waves to march across after me repeatedly, now everything happens right there without all the waiting. I just start the battle, my men move into position, and shortly after the enemy forces are close enough to start fighting. With the battle tactics mod (part of the compilation) letting you preassign the tactics you want, battles are now much faster and more fun. I cut the battle map size down to the point that you can immediately see the enemy.
I was getting to the point of being bored of my infantry army because it took so dang long for each fight due to having to take 5 mins every time just to move to fight them. Only reason you might want the original is for mods that weren't ported over, but Warband has plenty of good mods already so probably not - unless you have seen/heard of a specific mod that isn't compatible.
