</>What does Battle-Hardened do?
Prestige is how units in Tabletop Tavern grow from fragile recruits into hardened veterans — but leveling a whole army the honest way takes forever. Battle-Hardened promotes every unit in your roster straight to maximum prestige at once, the same jump a Trial of Grasses gives, so your entire warband walks onto the field as elites. Each unit is handled on its own, so one odd slot can't spoil the rest, and you're told exactly how many got promoted.

Skip the slow climb from fragile recruit to hardened veteran and field an elite army from the very start. Part of the ProjectMods catalog, the community-first PC mod manager for 400+ games.
</>Common questions about Battle-Hardened
What does Battle-Hardened do in Tabletop Tavern?
Battle-Hardened is a Tabletop Tavern mod from ProjectMods that instantly maxes the prestige of every unit in your roster. Prestige is how units grow from fragile recruits into hardened veterans, and leveling a whole army the honest way takes forever. With one click of Promote Whole Army, every soldier jumps straight to maximum prestige — the same leap the game's Trial of Grasses gives a single unit — so your entire warband walks onto the field as elites. Each unit is handled on its own, so one odd slot can't spoil the promotion for the rest, and you're told exactly how many units got promoted.
How does the Promote Whole Army button work?
Promote Whole Army is the single action Battle-Hardened adds in Tabletop Tavern. Press it and the mod works through every unit currently in your roster and raises each one to maximum prestige, the same promotion the game already grants through a Trial of Grasses. Because every unit is promoted individually, a strange or already-maxed slot simply gets skipped instead of blocking the whole batch. When it finishes, the mod reports how many units were promoted, so you get a clear confirmation rather than wondering whether anything changed. Your veterans keep all their normal stats and behaviour — they are just fully seasoned now.
Does Battle-Hardened promote reserve units as well as my active squad?
Yes. Battle-Hardened promotes every unit in your Tabletop Tavern roster, not just the squad you currently have deployed — reserves on the bench get the same jump to maximum prestige as your front-line fighters. The mod handles each unit one at a time, so whether a soldier is fighting, benched, or freshly recruited, it gets promoted the moment you press Promote Whole Army. Units that are already at maximum prestige are simply left as they are. This makes it a great click to hit right after a big recruiting spree, when you have a mix of raw recruits and veterans and want the whole warband brought up to elite standard at once.
Can I promote just one unit instead of the whole army?
Battle-Hardened is built as a single all-at-once action, so it maxes the prestige of your entire Tabletop Tavern roster rather than a chosen individual. There is no per-unit picker — Promote Whole Army is the one button, and it treats every soldier in your roster the same way. If you would rather grow a single unit gradually, the game's normal promotion still works exactly as usual alongside the mod; Battle-Hardened just gives you the option to skip the grind entirely when you would rather field a fully seasoned army straight away. The action only does anything when you press it, so it never changes your roster behind your back.
Why would I use Battle-Hardened instead of leveling units normally?
Leveling a whole army the honest way in Tabletop Tavern is a long grind, and one bad matchup can wipe out units you spent hours seasoning. Battle-Hardened is for players who want to experiment with a full veteran warband without repeating that climb every run — great for testing team compositions, tackling a higher difficulty tier, or simply enjoying the power fantasy of an all-elite army. It is also handy for content creators showcasing late-game units on camera without a long setup. Because it uses the game's real promotion, your promoted units behave exactly as earned ones do, so nothing feels broken or out of place.

- Promote your entire roster to maximum prestige with a single click, so every recruit becomes a hardened veteran instantly.

Best For
- You just recruited a batch of cheap, low-rank units and don't want to babysit them through a dozen fights to make them useful.
