I greatly enjoyed Gekokujo when I played it a bajillion years ago. And I feel a need to shout it out since one of my mom's friends made that mod.

For ore vanilla mods, I've played with Diplomacy, and for bigger mods, Gekokujo was fun if you're a weeb.

Between Empires is an almost perfect total conversion mod based on wars in Europe between the 1800s and early 1900s but is completely ruined by the sheer scale of its map. the map is so fucking massive that you will never EVER see a faction at war most of the time because it takes 20 minutes for them to travel anywhere, and the game's core mechanics revolve around every army following the marshal around. you can fuck with any faction and start stealing their territories with almost no fight because they're busy having wars with other factions on the other side of the map. unfortunate because no other mod like it seems to exist

My favourite part of warband was when I was courting a noble lady only to discover halfway through that she's the psycho personality
She started getting courted by another lord and when I challenged him she went all "ohohoho this is so exciting, I can't wait to see who dies". I think she egged him on just to instigate a fight.
Top tier waifu. Wish I could remember which one it was, not like it matters really since lady personalities are randomised but I'd like to know.
I'm aware this is mostly just me filling in gaps with my imagination and the system isn't as developed as I make it seem, but bannerlord can't even make you imagine cool shit like that is going on.

Floris is trash. Most of these hyper megamods are bloated garbage where you spend 200 hours being oneshot by peasants because they were made only by and for the people that had spent 10000 hours in M&B, so the balance was adjusted towards having their knowledge of exploits, which they expect you to play through those mods by abusing them. The only genuinely fun M&B megamods with sensible difficulty and proggression curves I've played were Gekokujo and Fantasy Calradia. Floris, Pendor, Perisno, they're basically the same thing. Spend hundreds of hours grinding early game shit dodging parties that will oneshot you and then steamroll the map when you reach critical mass. There's no other way to play them.

bannerlord's noble relations are completely kneecapped, skullfucked and curbstomped by two extremely retarded mechanics
>relations are with the whole family instead of individuals
which is so comically moronic it requires no explanation
>the abortive influence system
which is basically point one but now relations are with the kingdom as a whole instead of individual lords or even families. this is the final death sentence for any hope of having interesting interactions with lords and enjoying the game. this piece of shit is proof that armagan and his wife got locked away in some dungeon and the studio is ran by incompetent roachlings without a single european rapebaby in their family tree to even partially redeem their evil genetics.

you get three maps per battle, retreating in the first 15 seconds or so has zero penalty and rotates between the maps. Chose the map that suits your situation best. Bonus tip! Once the enemy lord is dead, the enemy army will no longer use any tactics after they do their initial charge and will simply charge you from their spawn. Use this to take and hold good terrain as they enemy come at you in a long stream. If the enemy lord is dead and the enemy army is large enough to start a second battle phase, a random unit will be designated the general. Look for him standing alone a bit behind his lines. It's rather easy to ride in and kill him before his army can react.

Bannerlord finally has some mods out that make it fun. Its still absolutely not all that it should be after 6 years though. Yes, 6 years, I know time is flying these days but its absolutely had enough time for an amazing warbandesque modding community to form if taleworlds would just STOP WITH THE RETARDED FUCKING GAME BREAKING UPDATES EVERY MONTH AND FINISH RELEASING THE MODKIT. Also it seems like the horrible fuckugly characters are unfixable.
I'd recommend Realm of Thrones, Shohuko, Anno Domini 1259, and chatai(pic related, lets you have ai conversations with everyone in the game and they're surprisingly smart and knowledgable about whats going on around them).

If you know of any other good mods let me know. I'd kill for a good Rome or Mesoamerica mod.

Well obviously there's the Old Realms mod. Warhammer fantasy, with a magic system, unique large units like treants or minotaurs, different races, cannons, guns and an rpg-style class system.
Very fun stuff, would recommend. Though it is a bit easy to get ridiculously overpowered.
I haven't played AD 1259 yet, but 1257 for Warband was fantastic. Does the Bannerlord version also have some cool features like custom troop trees, crusaders, manors, lance recruitment system or stuff like that?

pendor fucking sucks and mitchymatt is a tremendous faggot
i would suggest trying:
Suvarnabhumi Mahayuth (indian subcontinent wars)
Warsword Conquest (warhammer fantasy total conversion)
Anno Domini 1257 (the year should tell you what this is about)
Nova Aetas (total conversion that massively expands the gameplay, with city management elements late game)
The Reckoning: Third Stage (zombie apocalypse with guns and vehicles)
and last but definitely not least
Paradigm Worlds (completely batshit insane schizo mod, you have to see it, it cannot really be described. It's just fucking insane)
there are so many better options out there than pendor

The obvious good choice is a bow, 2 quivers and a two-hander.
The cool choice is a polearm, shield and a one-hander. Can add some throwing weapons if you want, too.

Been keeping an eye on Old Realms, very interested because i loved Warsword Conquest but I'm waiting for it to have more content and factions.
>Does the Bannerlord version also have some cool features like custom troop trees, crusaders, manors, lance recruitment system or stuff like that?
Its been a bit since i played it. It has a new world of course, which is absolutely enormous, arguably too big, but i dont think it has any of that stuff though. I remember it has boats, and a billion new units, but overall i think its just bannerlord+ in a less boring setting. I fucking hate the early dark ages, im so glad the age of vikingslop has ended.
I'd much rather fight over some grand city than a crumbling ruin with 500 people living in and around it in improvised mudhuts.

I think the government's interest in Bannerlord is what fucked it. Their government gives them money and benefits for as long as they keep working on Bannerlord, and I suspect that they keep putting out all these small updates primarily just to collect that government money for as long as possible, instead of finishing the game or updating it in a more sane manner that doesn't fuck up the mods every time. This isn't difficult to realize, I'm sure they know that mods are what made Warband into the huge success it was. Vanilla isn't bad though

There is nothing cooler in warband, than creating your own custom troop tree and leading YOUR men to battle, instead of just some assortment of other kingdoms' troops.
I wish more mods implemented custom troop trees.

Personally I find polearms and lances drop off once your weapon skills gets high enough. One handed weapons just seem to kill more faster, and the safety they provide becomes less relevant and you take less and less hits in better and better armor.

I think Vanilla is bad. It could potentially be pushed over the line into alright(but still disappointing) with a better setting(no more primitive mudcore dark age shit, either do classical inspired or medieval inspired), and social improvements. The lords and ladies in warband, despite being technically more simple, felt far more personable and alive than the ones in bannerlord. Courting a lady is pure rng, and feels boringly robotic and transactional instead of romantic. And as for lords, if they're not a family leader(aka an overwhelming majority of them) they have zero agency and might as well be generic mooks, zero reason to bother learning their names or befriending them.

Improved social systems was one of the big things they were hyping up, they acted like it was gonna be crusader kings meets warband and individual personalities and rebellions and shit would mean you could keep playing forever without getting bored. Then they quietly neutered or walked back on them until we got this boring hollow shit.

Has ANYONE actually experienced the dynastic system at all? Does ANYONE actually play beyond the lifetime of one character? Even getting your young starting character to old age feels like playing for too long.

So disappointing. Remember when they promised designing your own castles towns and homes, or an active family life where you'd raise and train your kids? They deleted those old devlogs now so they can pretend they never said that.

Warband originally ended with a massive swarm of necromancers and undead attacking the land. not joking. most of the files for it are still in the game, but they took it out for a more realistic setting

Getting maxed out relation with every clan, and by extension every individual lord, of a nation is just too piss easy. The ruling clan loves you just for joining them. Influence is ridiculously easy to gain and maintain too.

I love, love, love warband, but the limiting factor on my fun is always how badly the AI performs at higher battle limits in sieges. Like in pic related where they're all just stuck in thick clumps
If all the units were even 10% smarter and have better navigating AI it'd be a perfect game for me.

Eh, Bannerpage is good, but also a little bit bloated. The combat AI is great for 1v1 agaisnt lords or high rank soldiers but battles are easy, if you have a nord army you beat up everyone in minutes.

The new armors are cool, the new lances and horses too.

But they have so much useless shit that nobody will ever use like boats.

no they're still ugly as shit, not even mods have been able to fix them.

Shokuho is the largest and most elaborate mod ever created for bannerlord with a long dev time and massive talented team and this is the best they could do to make the characters look japanese. They're ALL weird pig men/women. It currently seems to be unfixable but hey, they STILL havent released the full modding tools, so who knows, maybe there's hope in another SIX YEARS.

Hahahaha what the fuck. It's bizzare to me because warband character creator was okay. All they had to do was just upscale the textures and add different body types, amount of muscles height slider etc. And i know they added those but how is it in even possible to make the faces so ugly? And they all look the same, it's one phenotype of an inbred medieval peasant. Maybe they were going for that actually now that i think aboht it
