I'm currently a vassal for sarleon and we are the strongest faction controlling most of the centre and western coast. The problem is we are at war almost every time currently at war with every kingdom, making it impossible for me to explore or complete unique quest lines. Is there any possible way to achieve peace?

Ive been playing warband for about a year now, and ive found that swadian knights and khergit lancers are some of the best troops in the game. I basically stack my entire army with them and end up winning every battle. I just got bannerlord, and im wondering if theres a comparable troop which can fill my army. Im assuming theyve nerfed heavy cavalry, but if not that would be fire.

I made a post earlier about my playthrough, but I’m wondering if I should start over.

I started a build as a horse archer, but I’m often times missing and just going to swords. So I’d probably change my build a bit. I have 10 companions, 6 businesses, and I’m working with the Empire as a merc.

The one thing I did not do is start lean with companions. I hired mercs and did most of my missions with them, so my companions aren’t leveling as much as I want.

I’m only a couple of months in-game and I wouldn’t mind cheesing a little gold to get my companions back and start anew.

Would it be worth it or should I just keep on with my current?

Hi, everytime i conquer a city or castle there’s no chance of me getting it i either show up on the vote with 0% and even if i use 100 diplomacy points its not enough to overturn it. The only fiefs i got was back when i first joined the khuzaits which are makeb and 2 castles. But im just baffled by why this guy that joined maybe 30 in game days ago already has gotten 6 fiefs and im not even kidding its actually kinda bothering in a way

Hello so I was attempting to siege Highcliffe Castle manually. But for some reason my troops kept on hitting the castle gate. At first I thought maybe it was supposed to be destructible door which is why I thought my troops kept on targeting it. But then when I thought I cleared the map of enemies, all troops started funneling to the door. I tried retreating but the system said that there was still an enemy alive, that's when I realized that the enemy was probably glitched into the wall.

I tried doing the siege again, but this time most of my troops went up the ramp except for a handful that kept going for the door, meaning that someone was once again probably in the wall.

How can I fix this issue? I don't think it's because I messed up when downloading the revision since I followed the steps and even used a clean module of PoP.

Hey guys hope your day is going well,

I mostly play custom battles and I really enjoy the game but I was wondering if I were to buy the war sails dlc if I could play war sails custom battles

Thanks for your time.

I have been trying to own as may fiefs as possible and it definitely pays off for passive income lol (36 fiefs rn)

Defeated Warlord Zulkar and executed him (a few honour and renown lost ain't holding me back)

Is there any mod that makes changes to the medicine skill, like making it not apply the own skill not as strongly to the enemy?
It often feels like my medicine skill works more often for enemies than my own troops, especially while defending sieges, so that I win the battle, but the enemy has barely any deaths, only wounded due to my own skill.

Yes I know some of these are late western roman Empire troops but Bannerlord doesn’t care about era mixing

and yes I know that some of these armors are in the stores but I’m on console so I can’t edit troops or make custom ones

Why is it only letting me make it to 240 when I have 10 atribute points and 5 focus points? Am I missing something?

I have never been a great mount and blade player, but I used to have a lot of fun when I was a bit younger on warband. I always ended up quitting because I couldnt organize my army well in battles on controller. But building the army, joining kingdoms, making money was always fun. However making money was pretty easy in Warband, I remember just going to tourneys and the investing into specific stuff in some towns and boom I was rich. However I never made it to the endgame where I make my own kingdom and stuff like that. Bannerlord on the other hand, judging by youtube videos seems a lot more difficult.

So i know that leaders in bannerlord have their own personalities, more so their “general thoughts on politics” stuff but I’ve never really spoken to other characters and I was curious if they also have their own personalities, maybe in some dialogue I missed out on by not really interacting with them outside of building armies and such

Do un po' di contesto: ho iniziato a giocare a bannerlord una settimana fa più o meno e ci ho macinato 33 ore. non sono tante, ma sono state sufficienti per capire le meccaniche del gioco. ho completato l'addestramento, ho fatto i primi 15k nelle arene per iniziare con le carovane, mi sono arricchito, e ho iniziato a fare il mercenario ed il vassallo per gli imperi nella speranza di riuscire ad ottenere un castello per iniziare la scalata verso il mio regno.

Il fatto che io non possa formare un esercito se non sono all'interno di una fazione è una meccanica insensata. Vi spiego il mio punto di vista:

Se voglio conquistare un insediamento, mi servono delle truppe. mi è capitato di incontrare dei castelli con appena 200 soldati di guarnigione, che sono niente se attacchi con un esercito. peccato che il personaggio possa (sono al lvl 5 del clan) tenere fino a 180 truppe, senza contare il fatto che un assedio non è come una battaglia e che quindi l'attaccante subisce molte più perdite. Mettiamo caso che io abbia avuto successo. adesso ho contro un'intero regno, con tutti gli uomini e le risorse che ha. anche se riesco a conquistare il castello e metterci 300 truppe di guarnigione, come può resistere ad un assedio da parte di un esercito composto da 1000 truppe? costruire le fortificazioni richiede anni interi e statistiche minime (come la lealtà) che dopo un assedio sono sotto zero.

Come diavolo dovrei fare ad ottenere un insediamento? da soli non è possibile, se abbandoni un regno decidendo di mantenere i possedimenti, sei nella stessa medesima posizione.

Ho cercato online. mi hanno detto "Aspetta che ci sia una rivolta e conquista i rivoltosi, nessuno ti dirà niente e potrai tenerti l'insediamento". nel mio playthorugh di 15 anni c'è stata una sola rivolta, in una sola città, che è stata indipendente per 5 anni più o meno. nonostante questo, la guarnigione arrivava comunque ben oltre le 500 truppe. Magari dovevo andarci all'inizio, ma quando scoppiò non avevo abbastanza truppe nemmeno per pensarci. A questo punto diventa davvero più facile ma soprattutto veloce aspettare il lvl 300 di commercio e comprarsi gli insediamenti.

E qui, vi dico cosa farei per sistemare questa meccanica:

Dovrebbero permettere di far formare eserciti ai singoli clan. Io posso affidare truppe ai miei compagni, e se non li metto in un esercito, loro andranno in giro a fare quel che preferiscono e la maggiorparte delle volte finiranno per farsi catturare. perchè?
Sarebbe più equilibrato poter formare un esercito con i propri compagni, o anche solo familiari così da arrivare (con i soli familiari in questo caso) a meno di 500 truppe, che non è materiale per la conquista del mondo ma di sicuro hai almeno qualche chance per un castello. Non è che di colpo il gioco diventa una passeggiata al parco, ma sarebbe più equilibrato. Comunque devi reclutare le truppe e farle livellare, devi fare la battaglia, devi difenderti una volta che hai conquistato, devi dare un occhio alle rivolte, a non andare in negativo con i costi di mantenimento dell'insediamento, ecc.

It's been a long time since I did a PoP run, so I started one today. Started as a noble/mounted bow build. I started in Ravenstern, did the first mission with the merchant, got the first crystal, got that suggested elixir, and hired Sigismund (kind of on accident, but he's helping a bunch.)

Now I am just kiting battles with Noldor to get my rep up with them and also doing the same with other factions. Not sure the route I will take later in the game, but I just want to stack cash and get good troops, books, gear, and companions. Any suggestions for next steps or areas to do quests in/places that have good mobs to loot?

the best i could find is that it came from this game, specifically a mod, anyone can give me context or tell if I'm in the right direction?

I’ve been trying to get the basic understanding of how numbers work in this game but I can’t tailor a weapon to my experience since every guide online I could find is just a min max build for a specific type of stat or a generalist “get rich with that javelin that you make 500 times” video which leaves me with 0 understand of what actually is important for each weapon type.

And so I humbly beseech this community to help a fella out. All types of info is welcome!

Hey guys, I have played M&B warband since I had it on ps4. I eventually bought it on pc and wanted to finish a play through for the first time. Instead of abandoning the campaign like I had in the past. With the goal becoming a Nordic lord of Sargoth.

I figured this goal would have took me a while. Especially since King Ragnar is typically the ruler of Sargoth. However, during this playthrough, I got it earlier than expected. They lost Sargoth to the Vaegirs and that was around the time where I became a Vassal. As well as had a great relation with the king. I took the town back with a help of my father in law. And I was awarded the lordship of Sargoth. So now, i technically finished my goal. Had it for a long while and armed it with 500 men. Nord Huscarls and Nord Veteran Archers

I’ve been wanting to play the games in order of M&B warband, M&B fire and stone, M&B Viking Conquest, and Mount/bannerlord.

Do you think this would be a good end to my campaign? My character never had the want to become king. Just simply rule Sargoth 🙂

I am playing first and serious campaign. I declared my kingdom. I have 2 cities and 1 castle. I am recruiting troops. Buying weapons and drop them for levels. After max level putting them into garrisons but this is boring and slow af. I dont want to use improved garrisons because i heard its too op and breaking the game. Is there another way to do it easier? Because i am thinking when i will expand cities and castles this method wont be effective. One small castle has 300 garrisons. i have 200 limit. i am usin 100 for level up and put in the garrison. It's not sustainable. I think its a bad game design. Am i right?

I've always played both warband and bannerlord in the max AI combat difficulty and it always worked out, I'm not that bad in the game's combat, so I am able to play smoothly... well... I WAS able to play smoothly at least.

I don't know if they had changes in the AI, but bro, combat is insanely difficulty now. The AI blocks 99% of the attacks, they do those fake attacks that makes it a lot harder to block, like, they never miss

In normal battle, the thing is so chaotic that it works out, but in tournaments, it's bs. When 1v1 against shield and sword, you need to abuse kicking if you want to land a single hit, and two handed? forget tryinh to win it. I got a lot better in two handed by practicing a lot, but it's so, so hard to win a battle. The AI never misses blocks, and kicking is pretty hard because of the distance from the 2 handed.

The combat AI now is forcing us to try and cheese the combat in some way, either kicking, shield bashing, chambering, etc, since a "normal" combat just won't work anymore (unless you have a lot of skill points in the particular weapon, since this way your speed and hanling will surpass the enemy)

Are you guys also suffering or is this purely 100% skill issue? I think the AI is a little too bs at the moment
