Which faction has ladies that look like this?

Coomer thread, don't post here, /mbg/ is a christian general and the posters are all men of god

>>2076406
We can't afford to be splitting the playerbase, friend. And let's not pretend Dickplomacy isn't one of the best vanilla+ mods.

>>2076407
i am not your friend, i am the schizo man.

I made that thing 7 years ago back when Bannerlord was still in Beta, i lost the original long ago.

>>2076555
>7 years ago
>when Bannerlord was still in Beta

>>2076557
I still remember our glorious thread on /vg/ We had the Cao Cao poster and the muscle girl posters... It was all so long ago... Now everyone is gone, only i, the schizo, remains to remember them in our exile to /vst/.
Truly god has forsaken us.
There will be no Armagan to save us
No Turk resurgence
No more Turkish govenrment grants from Tayyip Erdrogan to save us.
No more conspiracy theories about government cronies working in Talewords...
This is the end. We will die here, far away from /vg/, in exile and dishonored.

I'm posting this to remind you of all the anons that died without meeting the Bannerlord. and to honour this anon's dying wish.
>>2076559
do you remember all the anons that died before meeting the bannerlord though?
and all the ones that will die before it becomes good?

>>2076566
Do you think all the anons who died before Bannerlord released would be happy with its current state?

best waifu? I joined battania looking for reheads and so far everyone looks like >>2076572 goblins

>>2076584
>best waifu?
she exists and belongs to me, no i won't tell you who she is

I'm mildly concerned about the fuckery they're doing in the new map, Taleworlds historically has sucked at mapping but they seem to be going all out to move shit around and change the shape of the seas to facilitate gameplay over anything. They could have just added more settlements instead of retconing where cities are AGAIN.

Also i maintain a big reason why Calradia feels weirdly empty and lifeless is just how everything you can visit is evenly spaced and divided into three categories instead of being more environment-sensitive. I don't like how there's either villages, castles or cities, there should be fortified towns that are bigger villages with some extra services and defensive walls, military camps formed by travelling armies setting up in a field mid-journey, merchants and camp followers settting up next to armies and towns, migrating tribes roaming the map, manors with smaller castles, small pasant cottages near castles, watchtowers, forts, monasteries, roadside inns, etc

>>2076646
more than anything else though, Battanian hillforts. That's all.

>>2076646
They will need to rewrite some of the lore for village and city descriptions.
Also, maybe move some of the resources around.
My biggest problem with the map is the mountains that are just everywhere. Good for catching bandits, but still.

How is Realm of Thrones? The Dragons look goofy as fuck but everything else seems pretty kino for a ASOIAF enjoyer like myself.

>>2076835
I enjoyed it, playing as the nights watch was fun. The wall siege defence was great (once), but the map is all sorts of fucked because enemies trickle in from 2 ladders then make their way up a dozen more ladders, one at a time. I spent 3 hours on one siege as an archer only to get sieged again and lose, after that the whole war was impossible. Fun to fight a losing retreating war for once though.

The other factions are decent too, good armour and weaponry. I didn't do any dragon stuff though, but it's worth playing if you enjoy the setting.

>>2076646
>>2076647
if they had done that bannerlord would have released in 2045

>>2076559
seriously why the fuck cant we go back to /vg/? what was the reason for us moving here at all?

no one browses this slow fuck board

Has anyone tried the Shokuko mod? I uninstalled Bannerlord a long time ago, anyone got any hands on experience with this?

>>2076584
Coreyn, it was only after i installed the helmet hair mod that i realized how weirdly hot she is

>>2076774
Its pretty great

>>2076392 (OP)
Is Shokuho any good? So far i've heard its straight up just better than the base game in some ways, or at least is has a lot of QOL improvements that are just an upgrade

>>2076944
She told me to go ask her dad for permission and I immediately got the notification he had been captured
Went down and solo’d Garios to rescue him, Caladog says “thanks” and immediately despawns
How do I find him again? Does he reappear in one of his fiefs or what?

>>2076584
Svana is the best

>>2076646
>Also i maintain a big reason why Calradia feels weirdly empty and lifeless is just how everything you can visit is evenly spaced and divided into three categories instead of being more environment-sensitive.
warband felt alive and had the same categories and distribution.

>>2076940

it's basically reskinned bannerlord and you'll still feel all the missing stuff.

No, we will need to to wait for the antiquity prequel to Bannerlord.
Only in 3 decades, haha.
But it would be cool.

>>2077010

lords respawn close but not inside walled fiefs.
just keep entering settlements and check his whereabouts in the encyclopedia.

>>2077129
Fuck man a redo of the Spartan mod would actually be insanely good, unrionically it would be one of the mods that sound actually enjoyable with RBM since it would be more lethal.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/cpNW0CZN8Ao
Buhtania CAN into sea, which means lore will have to be rewritten, because one city mentions them losing access to the coast and waiting for some mythical or famous sailor king to return.

does the kore explain Sargot's location?

>>2077286
No, that's (officially, I believe, admitted) fuck up on their part. Placing Sargot in Vlandian instead.

Finally tracked his ass down, but now when I try to propose marriage he wants me to marry Merag instead of Corein
I've definitely finished "courting" Corein until she suggested I talk to Caladog, she's still marriageable age (28, I wasted time annihilating Vlandia and forgot to get married), and she isn't married already
What gives?

>>2077539
Finally figured it out. Corein got captured in a war, which ended a few days before I finally caught up to Caladog. Corein hadn't "respawned" in town yet after being freed from captivity, so I couldn't marry her, I followed Caladog for a couple days and the option appeared

>>2077332
Yeah but like a pure hellenic map, particularly a pelopenisian war setting, since war sails and Shokuho figured out naval battles then that would be good too.

A Mount and Blade: Troy mod would be insanely cool as well.

>>2077023
Warband felt alive in spite of that limitation and not thanks to it, and every mod that could add more, did.

Viking Conquest remains to this day, the blueprint of how immersive and believable a Mount and Blade world can be made because it didn't try to have these fucking annoying strict limitations on world design and just let encounters and things to do become locations instead of shoehorning the things to do into locations from a list. What results in Bannerlord is that NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENS, everything is a few menus away and locked behind a notable, and boy "notables" are the most souless thing there is.

Back in Warband we had village elders, guild masters and THEN lords and that implied a certain level of sub-noble hierarchy and organization, but in Bannerlord no one else has titles or roles, they're just "notable" and have troops and quests and sometimes relationships going on with other notables but nothing that truly puts them in the world, they even dress the same. This is actually my biggest gripe with the game, notables fucking suck.

>>2077609
>they're just "notable"
That's fine, don't need a million different made up titles for fake ingame cultures to say the same thing - noble or a minor noble.

>>2077618
except you do because you don't have tiers of importance other than accumulated wealth and influence of a clan which means nothing should subjugate them to nobles or prevent them from becoming nobles and the premise of the games' society gets eroded. Notables need to be a notable [something], a merchant, a landholder, a council member, a magistrate, a priest, a druid, anything, so long as it informs the kind of dynamics they're gonna have in society and even more importantly, the kind of quests and relations they're gonna have. It's called roleplaying.

>>2077622
Warband was never good for this either, it's just your nostalgia.
Meanwhile Bannerlord, for me at least, has more interesting visual, early medieval and better looking, smoother combat, so it was a clear upgrade.

>>2077623
Warband had Village Elders and Guild Masters which had all the quests in their respective locations and whose quests were all surrounding the well being and interests of said place so it made sense. Notables in Bannerlord can be at best self interested or just actual criminal scum and you never get a sense of who represents the interests of the people of a town.

IMO this would be fixed real fucking easy if we just had more fixed location-specific NPCs that aren't notables, like a magistrate, a guild master, town mayor, captain of the militia, etc, and then maybe you could even have in-settlement dynamics between the notables and the actual town with quests and shit like unrest and riots breaking out. Anything to liven up the place.

>>2076946
Yes. It has some issues but is generally much closer to what the base game should be.

>>2077622
>merchant, a landholder, a council member, a magistrate, a priest, a druid, anything
there are merchant, artisan and gang notables off the top of my head in towns.
>>2077625
>Notables in Bannerlord can be at best self interested
they push the interest of their class. like that artisans vs merchants where to sell quest.
this isn't what bannerlord is missing since warband didn't have it either.
hell, warband had generic guild master instead of showing internal divide between artisans and merchants.
anyway, adding what you're talking about won't make bannerlord feel alive.
warband still felt alive even if you had a mod that allows you to meet the guild master and village elders from the menu.
bannerlord removed interactions with lords like in warband and lacks interactions with the notables they added.
and the economy is based around loot so being a lord means jackshit.
and the game is designed to push the player into massive battles all the time.

>>2076392 (OP)
Why are they called Rhodoks lorewise? Is it their ethnic group?

>>2077921
because they've been rawdogged so many times by the Swadians throughout the years that the word stuck then changed and rhe rawdogs forgot the original meaning.

Best cavalry to use as a "bodyguard"?
I like to sit on my horse and direct the battle from behind my infantry, but I still catch the odd arrow or cavalryman that breaks through the line. Would be nice to have a small group of cav to catch arrows and engage enemy cavalry that go for me
Looking for heavy armor, shields, and preferably a better weapon than a cavalry lance (since they won't be charging). I'm in Battanian-occupied Vlandia, so Khuzait troops aren't really an option

seriously why isn’t there a Rot3K mod
don’t chinks have their own modding scene?

>>2079299
This unironically keeps me up at night. Not only is it a cultural touchstone for most of East Asia, it's also an internationally successful video game franchise. I get people would argue over WHEN exactly to set it? If it's only three kingdoms it'd be pretty one sided, but before that you might have trouble with certain factions steamrolling the map from such lopsided group sizes.

>>2079299
>>2079313
i'm pretty sure they made a standalone game about it using Warband's engine.
and i'm pretty sure chinese rioted because it was just a reskin without added mechanics or something then they apologized and promised to work on it further then we didn't get an update about it from that anon.

Captivity Events or Primae Noctis?

>>2079299
I want to say there are two or three out there, but none that are really good (thus the original Cao Cao poster and their legacy).

>>2079345
>Captivity Events

>Primae Noctis

>>2079313
The when seems pretty obvious to me, post Dong Zhou but pre emperor fleeing to Luoyang, that way you can have Cao cao, yuan shu, lu bu and liu bei in the central plains then yuan shao and gongsun zan in he bei, with liu zhang, liu biao and sun ce in their respective areas you could even throw in factions like Ma teng, the dong zhou remnants in chang an and some bandit factions like Yan Baihu or the black mountain bandits.

>>2079299
There are quite a few Chinese-only ones, but of them there's like only one decent one, but even that is lardely only because it actually lets you be a loyal minister and restore Han.
There's also one for Bannerlord that got a closed demo this January, but that one ended up being a literal crowdfunding scam.
>>2079334
That was Han–Xiongnu Wars, no relation to Three Kingdoms. Actually fun enough to play and does have plenty of unique mechanics, it's just they ended up never adding a lot of what they were promising after release (and the attached manual stil does kek) because of both negative fan reception and from what I've heard from the Chinese side some kind of mess with the ways the earnings are divided between Taleworlds and the Chinese team.

>>2079345
Hot butter.

>>2079345
What does Primae Noctis do

>>2079355
I agree that the setting you mentioned would be a great choice but there will be people that want three kingdoms proper as well as plenty of other highly specific time period kingdom standings (there's a huge amount of Cao Pi lovers for some fucking reason even though Cao Pi sucks.)

>>2079645
can't they play fast and loose with the time and have whomever they want added? perhaps even everyone?
gekokujo was like this and no one cared.

>>2079645

>>2076407
Dickplomacy was always shit, a shitty version of diplomacy on top of some sex animations that were from a meme Russian mod

>>2079645
I think trying to catter to people that want the "proper" three kingdoms is a mistake they all have their favorites and it would be imposible to please them all, they also tend to want things to happen in game as they did in ROTK which leads to games being heavily railroaded

>>2079561
ITs a very broad text based lew mod with stuff like prisoner interactions ranging from consensual post fight banging to outright abusive defiling. It has kingdom wide law systems for stuff like Tournament victors rights and the right of the king/clan leaders to claim girls when they come of age or get married.
There also system for hooking up with random ladies and npcs, but like >>2079352 says its less of an upfront fapbait mod and more of a long game thing. And it does almost nothing for a female main character, its designed around you being male.

CE is very much the opposite and while it has plenty of content for a male PC it has far more for a female, also it does tend to get repetitive and boring faster, its very much just pron deliver vs PN being a lewd rpg about defiling maidens and harem building.

Dramalord is in the middle and basically just adds a framework for Incest, Adultery and Whelping bastards.

Bannerlord was the most fun when the only content about it were 'waiting for bannerlord' memes.

>>2081494
nah
I had more fun with Bannerlord than with Warband.

Played Bannerlord for the first time in over 2 years because of Shokuho and I really hate how much artifical bullshit the game has. Things like being unable to buy more than X workshops or have more than X companions because of the magical clan tier or the caravan escort quest spawning a group of raiders that will attack the caravan with no regard for the much more powerful party guarding it.
The removal of small things like being able to get an estimate of how much money a workshop will make when buying it, being able to ask lords for locations of others, having to actually return to the questgiver to get a reward.

>>2081555
True Limits mod can help with that, I think.

>>2076940
Been playing it lately. I enjoy it. I was a huge With Fire and Sword fan though, so it feels oddly familiar in its own right. Instead of shot and pike combat it's more like shot and katana, especially if you start in the Sakai culture where firearms are more common. I guess you could emulate the shot and pike style combat with Yari/Naginata troops, but eh. Katana troops tend to perform better.

It's got some cool features like strikethrough. Basically you can hit multiple enemies with one sword/polearm strike (especially from the sides.) Leads to some pretty cool moments where you can strike down 6 enemy troops at once going fast as fuck on horseback. But at the end of the day, it's still Bannerlord. It's a very solid full-conversion though. Some of it is buggy (naval combat for instance), but the general gameplay is solid.

So what QoL/UI/Balance mods do I actually need for Bannerlord? I know I should play vanilla first, but I don't feel like playing vanilla for a few hours before restarting the playthrough so I can use mods.

>>2082006
warbandlord is a must

>caravan escort quest spawning a group of raiders that will attack the caravan
this is the whole point of this quest imo. I take it when I have a bunch of low level troops I want to train but don’t feel like chasing down looter stacks

>>2082019
Rbm has good combat changes and is great when paired with overhauls like De re militari if you want a more authentic early medieval feel, but it overnerfs ranged and fucks the economy to an extreme degree. Warbandlord kind of messes with the economy too but to a lesser degree.

Anyone been playing 457? I'm liking it more with each patch, the quest line in Denmark is really cool. Though I really hate the recruitment/troop system, since it basically eliminates levelling troops since they'll either have no upgrades or one

>>2082186
The economy fuckery is why I just don't run with Rbm or warbandlord. The rebalancing is better but still not great and the economy fix mods I run, that actually make merchant playthroughs fun, crash the game with it. Just not worth the trade off for such a small difference.

>>2081200
I must confess, I only played it once or twice but the aesthetic has certainly left a mark on me.
And through me, others.

>>2082333
What does Warbandlord change economy wise? It lists just combat changes

>>2082401
The way the economy works is it bases price off of the base values of the item with modifiers for the prefixes. RBM fucks it because your basic leather shoe is worth 5 times a vanilla leather shoe because the armor value is inflated. True all affected gear costs 5-10x more, but non gear costs are unadjusted. So you end up fighting a few bandit groups and can outright buy a caravan or workshop.
Warbandlord tweaks things less, but values are still adjusted so prices still change.
In an extreme example there was a jagged spear you get from one of the aserai starts that sells for like 10k with warbandlord active probably because it's using unmodified values.
Also in shokuho warbandlord makes bows dirt cheap because of the value tweaks. I also had trouble with bows headshotting dudes with straw hats for like 2 damage.

>>2082407
Okay, that makes sense. I wish Warbandlord did a better job explaining the sliders because I have a hard time making heads or tails of them

>>2082413
what mod(s)?

How come there's so many modders adding new armors and items to the game but nobody's tried fixing the obviously badly made vanilla game armors? most mail textures are low res, mismatched or just the wrong design. A lot of armors are baggy and hanging right past the waist and hips like big baggy pajamas. A lot of helmets are scuffed, filthy looking and not placed properly on top of the head.

>>2082407
I noticed that that RBM shakes up the economy, but desu, I only used True Costs mod to adjust the recruitment costs, otherwise, I don't think it matters unless you care to play as a trader.

>>2082472

No. They either keep the models the ultimately the same but give the women slighty bigger breasts and hips or they turn the women into exaggerated bimbos.

AI cav bad thread.
>"I have fixed it" modifying the game files. It looks like there is an issue for cavalry units under AI command related to the AI thinking too much what to do after the charge. After modifying the method called "TickOccasionally()" inside the "TacticFrontalCavalryCharge" class, the AI now charge in the same way than the player, and I have not detected any issue in my current campaign.

I thought we were back for a second

Haven't touched Warband in half a decade, remind me, are mods for older versions compatible with the current one, or is there a need to get an old version? And if yes, what's the easiest way? I don't see Steam having old versions in the beta tab like it does with Paradox games.

>>2082635
I think my wife Corein is quite beautiful.
>>2083264
TW has seemingly abandoned the online play after their shitty captain mode wasn't a 9 gorillion shekel worldwide phenomena.

that feel. all bow education traits so far.

Returning to warband over the long break, I simply can't stomach ridiculously uneven 'mountains' maps.
What files can I edit to get rid of them? Googling the issue only brings me to useless advice of "not fight in the mountains".
I don't even use cavalry so it'll likely make my life harder.

if only bannerlord could lure in some of the skyrim autist modders that would be a huge first step, they have people from all over the spectrum and that would be still an massive improvement on what we have now

>>2084074
Doesn't bannerlord has an issue of regularly breaking mods with random updates?
I thought this was the main reason for the dead modding scene.

>>2084109
So does Skyrim, it was only after Anniversary came out that they stopped fucking with it as much. But they still do, for creation club purposes.

>>2084109
Modding scene isn't dead though. And anyone who cares about mods just locks their game version.

Is it me or did they spend more time developing these sea travel mechanics than they did with the actual game? I swear TWI is the most autistic hyperfocused company ever. We should be thankful there were no trains in the medieval world.

>Sea Attrition, Seaworthiness & Storms

>Life at sea in War Sails wears down even the sturdiest hull. Ships take gradual damage when navigating the open sea and when under harsh weather conditions. This damage is influenced by weather strength, ship size, and a vessel’s innate seaworthiness — a stat that helps reduce the toll the seas take.

>Previously mentioned wind effects are further intensified when sailing through storms. Storms are circular, dynamic weather events that move across the open seas with various degrees of strength and sizes, all the way up to hurricanes. They can form at open sea, and then continue to grow — or dissipate when crossing land terrain.

They literally built Sid Meier Pirates into Bannerlord. That is so cool

>>2084408
>>2084303
Man if they can get autistic about this then maybe they'll hyperfocus diplomacy next, i actually dont know much about Vanilla diplomacy because i played pure vanilla once then decided to install Diplomacy right after.

Carribean Warband was the best when it was in beta back in the days. holy

>>2083830
No, no mods I'm aware of require older versions
It's more the opposite, wse the script extender has come a long way and is now capable of some really impressive things (more corpses, larger battle sizes, ragdoll you can hit)
>>2083874
That's native mapgen, a lot of mods either use their own or fixed maps

my first ship will be a FESTUNG

>>2084482
My first ship will be called Your Mom because she'll fill up with men and horses until she breaks

There was a Caribbean game on the Warband engine that sucked ass, so they probably want to have a natively functioning naval system in Bannerlord.
Unfortunately, I can't see it integrating well with the gameplay and not ending up as an afterthought for every playthrough.

>>2084408
My first ship will be called King Harlaus' Revenge

>>2084511
I think its gonna be an autistic little game within a game that will be pretty good but not interface with the base mechanics well at all, like how smithing is way more complex than it really needed to be but ultimately adds nothing to the actual game and few people fuck with it.

Maybe if they spend 10 years making more of these mini games and give you more shit to do the game will be less dull outside of 24/7 battles.

i will kneel when they apply that level of autism to lords' interactions and make the economy tax focused.

That's cool, too bad the base gameplay of this game is wandering around auto-resolving the same shit battles forever while stuck in endless meaningless wars, click upgrade troops, haul prisoners back to town for 5k gold, auto sell your inventory full of shit dropped loot, then go back out and do it again with the next mindless interchangeable lord to cross your path. How the fuck will the sea battles change anything? Try adding some fucking gameplay first.

Having a proper bote system will only improve shokuho

>>2076392 (OP)
I love mount and breed bonerlord

How is the warhammer mod Old Realms?
I've heard Shokuho is basically bannerlord japan edition which sounds underwhelming, does the whf mod have fun shit in it like dungeons and stuff? the art direction looks great at least

>>2085697
Bannerlord japan is underselling it. Yeah it's still the same game but for what it adds I just can't go back to even a heavily modded vanilla again.

>>2085700
Funnily enough, I got bored with Shokuho fairly quickly and only made me want to play vanilla again.
My vanilla campaign is still going strong.

Shokuho has some nice (mod) things going for it, but very bland in every other aspect. It has very little to show for considering the amount of time it took to develop.
And I'm a weeb who loved Gekokujo and was looking forward to Shokuho for years.

>>2085697
i think it's great. still has a long way to go and it seems like they don't do hotfixes even for very annoying known issues but i've already had more fun with it than vanilla

idk how i keep forgetting this.
you could ride horses in towns in warband but can't in bannerlord.
you could even ride random horses in town scenes if you spawned inside the town instead of outside.

>>2084109
That's modern gaming in general. View it like I do - game is not finished until they release final patch and move on. Only then your mods will be safe, unless you have GoG version like me and can just back up the older version with those mods.

I tried reisntalling bannerlord to play Shokuho and holy fuck i cant remember how ugly the game looks even at maxxed settings i also have this massive input lag even though the game was running at 200+ FPS.

IMO Bannerlord should have blatantly stolen every new mechanic from Viking Conquest, which i consider to be a true sequel to Warband because it actually expands on everything the game was lacking on. It's actually astounding they didn't.

An easy fix would be to have the perks be useful for a start.
>Here is 2% more damage!
What a useless piece of shit. The minimum for percentage perks should be like 25%. If they raised every perk to a minimum to 25%, that would immediately make the perks 10x better.

There, being less perks but having them be much more impact ful I think would certainly make Leveling up a little more rewarding.
Maybe every 50 Levels rather than every 25 levels. That's already half the perks there are removed.

>>2087096
Nah, Warband is so simple compared to Bannerlord. If you just bumrush mid-late game by cheesing bandit party after bandit party then of course you're not having fun with the game.

>>2088918
I've been thinking they need to remove the skill points and only have stat points, then they can rebalance all the skill caps so they advance linearly. Force a choice between being decent at everything or good in a few areas as opposed to now where you're basically great everywhere and a demigod in a few areas. And then remove all the governor perks and just make them passives that you automatically pick up. The other skills can then be rebalanced and just spaced out every 50 levels.

>>2088960

2% would be good of it like, stacked. The issue is that this is an RPG system that requires the world and character building to be replete with modifiers and bonuses and shit, like magic spells, enchantments, potions, abilities, race traits, etc, but we got none of that.

Just imagine if armor and weapon types actually had material, construction and culture specific modifiers, ie
>ye olde vlandian gloves of faggotry: +3% to polearm speed
>imperial decorated scale armor: -3% morale loss from bad events with imperial troops in party, -5% to armt cohesion loss rate when in inventory
>Battanian falx: ignores 5% of armor not made in Battania

So on and so forth. Just for a start.

>>2088960
How so? I find Warband, especially with some mods like Litdum and WSE for the increased battle size, to be much more in depth than Bannerlord. Even the Diplomacy mod on its own for Warband brings it head and shoulders above Bannerlord with a much longer mod list and it works right after download. No setting tweaks or anything.

>>2089156
I have been asking myself that since I first played Bannerlord. I played a few of the mods that added dungeon delving like the Warhammer mod and Daggerfall and Warband is unironically a great for that sort of gameplay. I don't know why TW didn't add in more areas for exploration, quests and lore.

I think I just broke the game

M&B originated as a dungeon crawler, I think armagan wanted to move away from that to a larger scale. But I agree the dungeons in mods are a lot of fun to crawl though, I've done a couple warsword saves of just dungeon crawls and I have 0 interest in warhammer but the experience is a lot of fun
>>2088734
I'm American, fuck off

>>2089658
>what does it look like in battle?
Very stupid.

It's so short the motion never gets interrupted from lack of space, but has around twice the range due to the lunge during the thrusting animation. The speed is quite fast, especially on hit.
It's a bit finicky to aim, but usually kills in one hit and the tip can find its way past shields surprisingly easy.
It destroys shields in 2-3 hits, then the AI can't even block since the thrust seems to have a long damage hitbox.

I'm using RBM though. So far it's the best weapon to train polearm.

>>2076741
That's like 4-5 different sex mods installed, a bit much imo, too much spoils the experience.

Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

>Yes — tariff income has been significantly rebalanced to diversify town income sources. Previously, tariffs made up only a tiny fraction of a town’s income (around 2%), but they will now contribute about 30% on average and can reach over 60% in trade-heavy towns like Danustica. This change will encourage players to consider trade routes and town specializations more carefully, making settlement management and project choices more meaningful.

>>2090478
Literally no other way to do this if they still want to allow people who would not buy the DLC to play?

Not historically accurate, but rule of cool etc

First time playing Bannerlord and I joined the Khuzait. We're at war with the Southern Empire, and they gave me a castle. But this thing is draining my money—I'm down to 30k denars and my income is in the negatives (-1k).
How do I turn this around and make a positive income? Should I just give the castle away for now?

>>2090444
That's a shame. They could have at least reduce their size and still kept them in the area.

>>2090678
But they added that new island for the Nords.

>>2090670
>>2090678
99% certain that it was because the islands were so big on a sea so small they couldnt make the currents and weather system fit around them. That whole body of water is little more than a lake, it already defied logic thst it kept the Aserai away from the continent somehow. The only real loss is no slaver republics in there.

Weird question:
I've been mucking around with a Warband mod and added an item to itemkinds1.txt. It's spawning right and the modifiers are working, but for some reason the modifier text in the tooltip doesn't show up (in the pic, there should be text that says "-3 swing damage" - this works for all other items, just not the one I added). Anybody had to deal with this before?

Is Banner Kings worth giving a go? It with culture expanded looks like it adds a fuckload of content but is it actually worth spending the time on?

>>2091323
That's a mod feature the source will be referencing item ranges that you're adding items outside of
It's the same with any mod added features ie equipment penalties in Viking Conquest

kek I don't think I will ever stop finding dumb shit in this game.

Why the fuck are the vasals not joning me in the siege? I'm the martial, they're all fallowing me and for some reasone when I start a siege I'm alone.

Does the game only have two endings? It's kinda shit they're tied to the main quest. It's way too unreasonable and the quest is very poorly done.

I married my bro to Ira and created an imperial faction through rebellion, but it really was meant to be just a faux empire, named Second Calradian Empire. Arzagos's reasoning made no sense, was extremely short-sighted and personally driven. The palaic people were murderous scum worse than the empire, they assimilated naturally through civilization. Istiana was talking some sense, yet I was put off with how comfortable she was with the intrigue that rotted the state and led to the current crisis. I saw creating a fresh state that preserved elements of the imperial tradition as the best solution, since going full ethnostate is not viable within the game's mechanics.
I held off the final step of the main quest until a single enemy castle remained, but the timer was still very tight. Not getting a unique ending or being shoehorned into the imperial one was a letdown. Saving the empire meant strengthening the oligarchs, which left a bad aftertaste. Destroying it sounded like a happier ending, but seemed like we weren't told the full story, since there is no way it created any kind of peace (also completely ignored the Khuzait).
The game should have more endings, one for every kingdom and a special calradian one for the player. Kingdom endings shouldn't need world conquest, only a dominant position, while the player kingdom should involve some form of state building, like in King of Dragon Pass.

Pic related, my Dominatrix Imperatrix. She had seven husbands, including three brothers. Getting a husband from each state turned out to be too much of a hassle... The heir is going to be one of my bro's kid, so who cares?

What is even the point of putting a story in a sandbox game?
More importantly, what is the point of putting a story in a sandbox game and then making it so that all of the characters in it can change?

Ck2 didn't even have naval warfare. All ships were transports that couldn't actually fight each other.

>>2094049
Oh, hey. That's my mod list. Or well, the modlist I made like a year ago.
I already purned everything in there and I'm waiting for War Sails to drop to start a new list.

And yes, shit like Mod Organizer and not having to deal with incompatibilities and automatic mod updates is why I download/upload from Nexus and not the Workshop if I can help it.

>>2094193
>crusader kings naval combat
>as the two fleets sailed past one another hurling insults in the native tongue of each, your wife who had joined you on this campaign was spiritied to the opposing king's ship by supernatural power where she did conceive.

Now that I'm getting into smithing I can see where the complaints come from. This shit is tedious.

I gave Shokuho another try, but the mod simply sucks.
I got hit with the permanent disorganization bug for fighting too many consecutive battles. There is no fix and now my game is ruined.

That's it, I'm finished with this game. With the delay of the expansions, I'm not going to touch it ever again.

>>2094806
I was excited for shokuho to come out and as soon as I booted it up and got to the shitty character background selection all the things I hate about Bannerlord started to crop back up, dropped it shortly after starting and went back to playing warband mods
There's finally a rome mod that works called ACAN I started alongside 457

>>2094806
can't you store your troops with a clan member party or in a fief then suicide a battle solo to get rid of the buggy modifier?

>>2094931
Yeah, it was a letdown. Worse, it even made me miss the shitty Bannerlord things, like the basic plot, pre-existing siblings and simplistic map.
The only things going for Shokuho are the temples, camping and books. The map is okay too, but waaay too huge.

>>2094935
The save is barely 3 hours in, so no fiefs or anything like that. The old fix I read was that joining an army supposedly resets it, but that no longer worked.

By the way, fuck the Shokuho discord. I searched certain mod issues and the endless disorganization bug, but all the results were reddit tier snarky comments offering no real answers and complaints that someone already asked this somewhere.
DISCORD IS A SHIT PLATFORM, A CHAT APP IS NOT A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT FOR FORUMS

>>2095034
Hold up, someone actually plays the bannerlord campaign?

>>2095034
Eh I never thought much about the Bannerlord campaign, warband mods have better main quests. it was just an easy way to get three (or five via marriage) companions right off the bat and one with decent quartermaster

I have the last remaining eighth elohim copy

I'm more of a tits man

>>2094047
Yea it's Garbo.

Anyone have any solutions to getting massive stuttering during battles past the vanilla max size for them? I'm using WSE2 for the record, but even then I think maybe the game is just being pushed to much to the limit and I'm overestimating how much it can help performance. If there's one thing I'd take Bannerlord over Warband on any day it's the fact that I can run 500v500 max battles smoothly, what's the highest you guys have gotten in Warband without the game shitting itself?

I started playing bannerlord online and holy shit this game is dead as fuck, like unironically the only thing there is to do is to fight looters. What a piece of shit mod

>>2095678
i tried it once and i was stuck farming for hours to get anything done and i tossed it right away

>>2095703
I am convinced this piece of shit mod was built as some sort of Russian grinding game to get money out of ppl or something, there is literally nothing to do other than fighting different colors of looters for hours and hours just to get a few skill points level ups, the entire mod is pointless and has no substance. The game is "online" but there is fuckall to do together, what a fucking joke

>>2095707
thats why we waiting for bannerlord coop

why does bannerlord feel so fucking boooringg even with proper mods?

warband feels like its gritty all the time and like you are in the action whereas bannerlord just fucking feels shit all the time, is it the graphics of bannerlord?
it feels so soulless

>>2095842
Its the speed, warband was waaaay faster, everything in bannerlord feels slow motion

I'm playing 1257 for the first time in years, this World Map is absolutely fucking dogshit, were most Warband mods like this for the world map? I could've sworn some of them tried to at least have some level of detail to them even if it's not the biggest priority. I think my main problem with even some of the big Warband mods is just how little polish the people making them put in, it's like every mod chooses the ugliest possible font and the rest of the UI Design is straight out of my grade-school PowerPoint presentations.

>>2095676
Turn off sound occulsion

>>2096072
No 1257 is notorious for running like dookie and having very little on the overworld aside from lords & bandits, there's no villager parties

>>2096079
Sucks because I like the scale it has, my love letter to Warband would be trying to recreate the atmosphere of TW Medieval II in it but I dont have any skills making mods or games.

>>2096156
I think the scale is part of the problem, it's why it has such performance issues and limitations
But 1257 was made a long time ago and warband modding has come a long way, there's a lot more you can do now especially with wse2
>but I dont have any skills making mods or games.
Neither did I when I started but I started small with editing warband text files like the actions.txt and item_kinds1 and eventually went on to source and making my own mods. Just start small by doing some item editing with morgh's

why does the daggerfall mod for warband run like shit even in wse2?

>>2096785
Probably poorly optimized, I think it's just a poor man's warsword conquest

>>2096903
it's just remarkable
perisno used to be the mod that was 'poorly optimized' for me, i install wse2 and i can play it with 500 man battles and it works like a dream
but daggerfall has weird texture problems (mail especially looks really weird for some reason), the map lags like crazy if you fast travel ( i have literally never experienced it this bad before ) and sieges just instacrash if you try to put the slider above 300 guys.
also, the map could be minituarized to like half the scale and it would still be too big. travel takes too damn long
guess ill go play warsword.

>>2097023

>>2096072
It's because 1257 is made by autists and not the good kind, the kind who absolutely have to have every Belarusian mud hut village even if it kills performance to the point they have to remove villager parties. (this is also why all towns have "unbearable poverty" because there are no villagers bringing their goods to them to raise their economy)
The kind who look at a map of Europe and think "Mountains, what's that?" (this is why the map is so flat)

>>2097054
Literally how do you spell it though. Furdishi, Furdnshi? Both give nothing

>>2096541
>feasts

Feasts were shit in Warband and i wish people started aiming higher because regular, periodic or emergent events that draw lords in can be done in a lot more interesting ways, ie religious ceremonies that happen once a year, birthdays, funerals, marriages, all things that happen in the fucking game and could be actually scheduled events that NPCs attend to.

Imagine if when an important lord kicks it the entire faction gets notified of their imminent funeral and you can actually attend the scene and maneuver politically there. Imagine if you could actually be there when the child of a lord is born and you can gift them something and actually boost your relationship with them in a real in-world way.

>>2097598

>instead of fucking around and roaming the map as usual, unless on an active campaign or besieging, all parties go back to a settlement they own and just settle there, only coming out to patrol nearby every few days

>random events like fights breaking out between nobles, affairs and new intrigues
>if the town is very poor or low on food they riot if there's not enough food left afterwards to give out
>small chance of a plague breaking out

There's so much fucking roleplaying that could be done with this game, legitimately insane it's still just a battle simulator.

>>2097803
If you look at advertisement material you'll see that's all it was ever going to be. An incredible amount of time and effort is put into the visuals of horses riding over desert with sand billowing behind them, armor designs, and a bunch of dudes existing on the battlefield. That's all the normoids they targeted care about, superficial shit.

>>2097117
Hnnnghh nigga those idead sound so good, so much roleplay potential

i wanted to like that mod but it runs like garbage and theres literally no neutral parties of any significance to fight

Didn't TW release a video before Bannerlord came out where the player was tending to a field and farming and shit? I remember one of the blog images was a view of the fields in different seasons where you could see the trees changing.

anybody know a mod like Dickplomacy with more armor?

Are there any good fantasy mods for bannerlord yet

>>2097866
That's exactly how I feel about it. Even something as simple as forcing the player to physically enter the tavern to check for companions and mercenaries makes a big difference, especially since it means you can also add random encounters to the tavern like the belligerent drunk.

>>2076392 (OP)

>Back in Warband we had village elders, guild masters and THEN lords and that implied a certain level of sub-noble hierarchy and organization, but in Bannerlord no one else has titles or roles, they're just "notable" and have troops
This is rather fitting for early medieval era, and frankly even late medieval era in many places. Not everywhere you had this strict feudal hierarchy that is thought at schools. It's an illusion. Village notables are essentially your village elders, of various kinds.
Guilds could maybe nice to add, but they probably don't fit the game, even if you can be a caravan driver/merchant.

>>2099543
The feudal system universal to all of medieval europe was just something they lied to us about for nor reason and it kind of pisses me of

>>2099554
I can't blame people too much, because sources and language is vague in them, but yeah, schools, at least, have been using outdated models for decades now.
I personally knew that the feudal model didn't really fit all of Europe since I live in Eastern Europe which had different trajectory when it comes to these things, with serfdom being entrenched after middle ages, not before, but I was fooled that Western Europe was more feudal than it actually was.

Should I buy Mount & Blade 2?

>>2099653
Is it on sale?

>>2099575
I mean of course I used to do most of the battles, but there isn't any reason to. All of the effort you put in to scrape by some of these battles, and then your kingdom votes to add a second war to the pile, and a fief you had somewhere gets taken because of it, or the AI simply has no clue how the loyalty mechanic works and they lose everything you worked for to revolts. All of that effort you're putting in is meaningless. There is nothing at the end of the tunnel except even more meaningless wars and battles.

>>2084637
>>2099928
The battles are the game you absolute buffoon. The strategic layer exists only to give context to those battles. When you get bored of a game you should go play something else instead of wasting my time with such stupid posts.

And as far as I know, that's the only place where I can find this particular pattern.
I've ctrl-f'd certain bits like 2 73 1 23 2147484654 because it seemed pretty uniform, but the block that shows up on the thread isn't there in the mod's mission_templates.

>I can't blame people too much, because sources and language is vague in them, but yeah, schools, at least, have been using outdated models for decades now.

Makes sense, i assume it's because when they made curriculums that suggested all that they really really wanted it to fit a narrative and if not a narrative then a category. No nuance just a straight answer.

>>2099543
>>2099556
The problem is that there's still needs to be an agreed order of some kind to inform the setting, like the notables in a town should be notables of SOMETHING, not just multipurpose bosses who are all vaguely criminal-inclined. There needs to be a good explanation as to who these guys are and why they are in every town, which isn't really hard to do. They could be members of a town COUNCIL, including the owners of shops and land in the town, or just the richest ones, that way we know they have pull and they can represent the bottom-up dynamic of power and their interactions with the lords(which should be present as well). The Feudal structure wasn't strictly present everywhere but there was a tendency towards incorporation. Guilds were a big one but not the only one, collegia survived from the Roman times, religious orders and societies were a rough equivalent for non-tradesmen, and the actual feudal systems of serfdoms carried with them a hefty administrative body in the medieval manor itself.


I don't think it should be autistically applied into the game but anything that addresses the disconnect between the notables as quest-giving NPCs and the world around them would be a huge improvement for immersion. I think doing something like giving every notable one of a series of titles and making towns have mini-clans inside that stand for a gamut of interest groups that -produce- notables would be a good way to do it.

towns don't make nearly as much money as in warband.

>>2100928
>towns don't make nearly as much money as in warband.
Who cares about Warband. But in any case, they make a lot, which makes sense, because when you rule one in Bannerlord you are already a major noble/magnate, not some merchant or merc.
You could reduce the loot prices, I guess, but that just would mean that once you get your first fief, your gear will become irrelevant and easy to obtain- which would be realistic, admittedly.

>>2100936
>Who cares about Warband
Me, the people making wse, the people still making mods for warband cuz Bannerlord is shit

>>2100937
Then just play that and don't bother us Bannerlord enjoyers.

>>2100936
>Who cares about Warband
we, the players.
>they make a lot
they don't. which is why the devs are increasing tariffs income.
you are a fucking lord. why would your main income be selling junk leftovers from battlefields?
what's the point of warring to gain land if not to increase income?

>>2100942
As I said, you could. for all I care, just reduce prices all around, or increase fief gains.
It would be realistic, to make fiefs actual money makers, but it would trivialize other sorts of money gaining ways in the game.
Again, I personally don't care, it would even be realistic. But I know that anons would shit, piss and cry because muh being merchant is irrelevant or whatever else.
You anons play for the wrong reasons if you care that much about this aspect, that's all I am going to say. It's not about realistic economics simulation.

>>2100945
Being a merchant is already irrelevant. Smithing is the best way to earn money and straight up earns more than having multiple towns.

>>2100936
>Who cares about Warband

I don't think dockplomacy is buggy, just jank. You can avoid most of the 'bugs' like not trying to impregnate a female as a female or other dumb stuff that just isn't disabled when it should be. But I think dickplomacy reloaded is the best vanilla+ mod and I'm a coomer so I'm biased.

Modernization mechanics with 3 different sets of faction trees? Go for it, but stop trying to do it all at once.
If someone could just fix the bugs in the scenes so that NPC's don't spawn in rows, and elders actually show up in Ishtar villages, I'd be happy. Tackle the airship battles and modernization when the current state of things isn't a janky mess.

>specific emotive dialogue choices that never match the personality of who is speaking
This is a dealbreaker for me

The more I play Shokuho, the buggier mess it gets.
I've been promoting veterans into lords, but recently I've managed to convince two clans from another faction to join me. These clans then automagically take over fiefs assigned to OTHER clans, messing up my fief distribution. Taking the fiefs away and reassigning them doesn't work, they always manage to respawn their ownership. Granting them new fiefs doesn't work either.

Dealing with all the bugs is just so exhausting...

>>2102004
>I have no clue what he's doing now.
Mostly shitting on Bannerlord at the forums. Iron Chieftain is supposedly still in the works and a demo is planned before the year's end.

any of you playing Old Realms in Bannerlord? how much do they have so far? like what factions, I see dwarves and vampires in the blogs but they don't have a concise list of which factions are available or the state they are atm.

Can I get a rundown on what Bannerlord overhaul mods are actually playable (and good) at the moment?
>game of thrones ones are still pretty rough, weird setting with characters from hundreds of years apart, OP giant recruitment, OP dragon recruitment
>crusades one was very promising but newer versions forced the integration of absolute dogshit combat overhaul mods
Is anything good yet?

>>2100951
ngl, i can't remember the bugs exactly but i remember noticeable bugs when i tried reloaded.
dickplomacy+polygamy fix+ctt is bug free.
>>2104340
>(and good)
lmao

>>2100398
I must have missed something because the only change is the text. The commands do indeed say "volley fire", but it's not a firing mode like I've seen in other mods - just an "all fire" command.

>>2103380
Does it still take two hours to load the game?

>>2103380
empire, von carstein vampires, mousillon, bretonnia, and 2 wood elf factions are playable. they all have their own character classes (careers), faction mechanics, and regiments of renown units. norscans, deserters, thieves, outlaws, beastmen, chaos cultists and probably others i'm forgetting appear as bandits. beastmen are limited to ungors, gors, and minotaurs which are janky.
overall i think it's a lot better than vanilla bannerlord, but it's still cearly bannerlord.
for a very easy game play asrai waywatcher and recruit nothing but asrai archers

>>2104588
precaching shaders took about 10 minutes for me but i do see people saying it takes ages for them

>>2104470
F3 command, then f2 fire at my command, then f3 again will open the volley fire commands

>>2104948
Yeah, that's what I mean. I go F3 and F2, but F3 brings up options for fire volley, left, center, and right volley. My ranged units won't reload and fire again in volley unless I command them to fire again.

>>2105348
Yeah that is how it works, you have to do f3 f1 (fire at will) for free fire, or do volley fire commands
Volley fire works good with crossbows and guns but poorly with bows and thrown, I usually tell my infantry to use ranged when the enemy is decently close and then use melee once they close in, in order to reduce casualties

Dudes can I use dickplomacy with prophesy of pendor? I feel like playing PoP again

>>2105479
if you can decompile poop, use the module system to merge them and then debug them, sure.

Is it normal to regularly get crashes if you set up your divisions 'incorrectly' before a battle?

>>2106063
we don't play the game. report it on the forums.
i doubt people play it even on the forums so don't bother searching and just report it.

>>2103337
So an upgrade to vanilla potato faces?

>>2105436
Nothing changed though except the wording. Before, the F2 > F3 menu options were:
F1: Fire at will
F2: All fire
F3: Left row fire
F4: Middle row fire
F5: Right row fire
Anything other than F1 would have ranged units fire once, reload, and then wait to until being commanded to fire again.
Now, the exact same thing happens, and all that's changed is the wording.
There used to be a volley fire option in the F4 menu as opposed to F3 where units would fire at will but in volleys.

>>2106312
What mod was this in

>>2106625
Sayazn. I can't remember what mods had the formations/weapon orders volley option; the only one to come to mind is Floris.

I guess Jacob's still making art, but what did he mean by this?

>>2107080
I don't care what he meant by this until he drives the Moslem from his country. Everything less than that is just masturbation.

>>2107051
That sounds like either a mod specific command or one of the later versions of PBOD, in which case you'd need modded integration for the source for those

>>2107134
As far as I know, this mod doesn't have PBOD.

>>2107201
If I remember right sayazn had some custom formations that jacuck made himself but I'd have to look at the mod again

/mbg/, tourist here looking for help. Tried again and again to get into Warband, but I always tapered off. Eventually it got to a point where I was doing the same thing over and over again with little variation.

Can do and enjoy repetitive tasks in vidya, but they have to have a good feel, what burned me off WB is that the everything felt a little floaty and lacked oomph, felt like you were slicing through air, the only things that felt somewhat satisfying was guns and they aren't even in native. The grand strategy felt puddle deep coming off playing Total War and Paradox for years so that couldn't sate me either.

What about Bannerlord? Is the combat better? Have more oomph? I know it's shallower in terms of diplomacy and grand strategy, but again, I don't think Talewords best could compete with other games anyway.

So am I doomed to not enjoy M&B or would Bannerlord assuage me? Feels like a game that should be 100% for me, I like real time and strategy a lot.

>>2107225
>Is the combat better?
100%
The only reason I personally bought Bannerlord is multiplayer.
If you like the combat and strategy, try Captain mode or Skirmish in MP. Captain is less about individual prowess and more about teamwork and matching your units against the enemy. Unless you're fighting 4 legionaries, then its GG.
And if you think you're hot shit go for Skirmish where most clanfags are and see your combat pay dividends.

Don't get me wrong, SP is ok with mods, but it is shallow. Maybe things will be better once the DLC will come out with an update but thats just Stockholm syndrome talking at this point.

>>2107225
It's more or less the same as Warband, when it comes to SP, at least. I don't play it all the time, just in short bursts, like Warband, so I don't get this burn out.

>>2103163

I think you're retarded and it's terminal

>>2107225
post what you did so far.
methinks you're a questcuck and finding out that they are not worth it.

>>2107482
Quests are worth it if you batch upgrade

>>2107532
doing quests randomly burns people out.
there needs to be an overarching goal for questing. like befriending a certain lord or buttering villages you like their recruits up or some roleplaying purpose.

>>2107542
Is "gaining rep/money" not enough? I'll admit, I've been on a trader kick lately so I usually intersperse quests and trade runs if they complement each other (eg, Dhirim GM gives me ale delivery quest for Veluca, so I pick up some grain to sell at Uxhal since it's kind of on the way) - maybe that helps ameliorate things.

>>2107542
But there is? Increasing relation with villages reduces the cost & increases the quality & quantity of troops. Every relation change (positive or negative) also refreshes the recruitment pool. Doing quests for villages increases prosperity which has a rebounding effect to the parent fief and town the villagers trade at.

>>2107555
gaining rep with shitty lords isn't worth it since they'll hate you for releasing or imprisoning them after battle.
quests can be a bit too hard for the money or the money simply being too low.
you need to know which quests to take and which to ignore if you're questing.
>>2107570
doong it for specific villages when you know what you're doing is different.
that anon is clearly a newfag.

What mods fix Bannerlord's Combat AI? It feels substantially worse than I remembered it at launch.

>Be Sarranid
>Khergits own Uhhun
>Khergits at war with Swadians
>Swadians loot Uhhun
>Get border incident pop-up: "Villagers of Uhhun have petitioned Sultan Hakim for protection due to their mistreatment by their Khergit overlords".
I know villagers are dumb, but they should at least be capable of recognizing Swadians as not Khergits...

>>2107828

>>2103163
His new stuff is a weird mix between realism and cartoony abstraction. I'll always prefer his old art.

>>2107482
Late reply, but no, I never did many quests, did some, but by the endgame I was going around mulching armies with my stack of 70 something Swadian Knights and a few companions. Enough to kill most armies on the field, but not enough to progress by being able to take a castle, so I just did that over and over ad nauseum without much progress.

Think M&B just isn't for me, it sucks, at least isn't completely shit.

>>2108026
it sucks it's like this but at least my taste isnt completely shit******

Mobile autism

>>2107225
Bannerlord combat is a lot more enjoyable to me than Warband's. I have about 350 hours in Warband and 800 in Bannerlord.
Ngl a big draw for me is that you can have children in Bannerlord and then play as them after your start character dies but you might not care about that.

>>2103211
Just waiting for a finished LOTR mod to come out for Bannerlord. Sick of playing TLD on warband and the other LOTR mods are unplayable.

>>2108026
>not enough to progress by being able to take a castle
You do know you can ask lords with high relation to follow and they'll join for sieges, right?

>>2108208
Wish Bannerlord has this feature.

Is Bannerlord better than Warband? I noticed the number of players for Bannerlord is much higher than Warband.

>>2108459
No. It just gets more players 'cause it's newer.

How do you guys play the late game of Warband? It mostly consists of siege slog. Is it worth just auto battling the sieges or will you lose too many soldiers that way?

>endless sieging castles phase
time to start a new game

>>2108537
I've conquered the whole map numerous times on multiple different mods, but I like having a late game save to do big 600 man battles or try out different army compositions

>>2108459
For me it is better.

>>2108261
Bannerlord has the army system which is miles better.

Warband:
>have to track down a lord that likes you
>beg him to come help you take a castle
>the whole thing feels more like two buddies going on a fishing trip than an actual military operation
>80% chance he will randomly leave on the way to the castle or while the siege is in progress, because some other thing caught his attention like dangling keys in front of a toddler.

Bannerlord:
>Use your influence to call any available lord to form an army
>Wait a few days for their party to join you as you all gather together.
>You now lead a huge army and can take it wherever you want, attack or defend wherever you choose, and the army will stick with you as long as you have the influence to maintain its cohesion so no retarded Warband surprise like half of them choosing to leave halfway through a siege to go feast on the other side of the map, costing you the entire war.

Its one of the few Bannerlord features that makes it impossible for me to go back to Warband.

>>2108832
be great if armies weren't subject to the same idiotic AI decision making stupor that makes individual parties a shitshow, like going back and forth on the map several dozen times before dismantling because the objectives update too quickly and the food AND cohesion depleting keep modifying the calculation of what the fuck the army wants to do.

be even better if armies and parties had more things to do than A to B and engage, flee or enter location to gobble up all the food. Shit like an Army being able to have parties within it scout ahead, forage, fortify, patrol, raid, ambush or skirmish

>>2108706
How do you conquer the map though? Do you fight in every siege or do you auto battle them? Some sieges take me 30 minutes to an hour. Not only that but after taking the fief sometimes the enemy get reinforcements instantly so I either have to stay nearby or else I lose the fief.

>>2108832
Can't form armies as a merc. Sometimes you don't want to form an army, all you need is for that one allied party nearby to back you up as you go in to fight a slightly stronger party.

>>2108832
Army system is a joke because you can just cheese it with companion lead armies that require 0 influence to keep in your army
>>2108876
You fight every siege. If they're trying to retake a fief you just ignore it and continue your blitzkrieg, since you should have 10+1 or 10+4 engineer anyway

>>2104751

I have every Warband steam achievement except those that require you to play a female character because I never played one longer than an hour.

Yes, I even have all the multiplayer achievements

Trying to motivate myself to do a female campaign but it will have to be a full one because I would need the achievement for putting a woman claiming on her throne, and later the one for ruling over all Calradia as a woman empress.

What are good mods that improve and add to vanilla not overhauls it?

F
you need to become the Marshal to lead campaigns and capture fiefs.
befriend lords through joining their battles or join in the last moment to save them and gain extra relations so they would vote for you.
and you need to increase the dmg to yourself and allies to really start having fun in the game.

I think I just found something that I missed from Warband without even realizing it. I booted up my old Warband save from a few years ago for old time's sake. I am 500 days in, helped the claimant rebel against Harlus and have a nice kingdom of my own carved out from Uxkhal, Veluca, Jelkala and Yalen. All of the lords I befriended, either through battles or through my high honor and renown are defending my fiefs, caravans and villagers from bandits despite the fact that their own are somewhat farther away. They also seem to revel in past victories and battles I had with them against enemies and despite it being a simple line or two of dialog, it feels nice.

I seem to remember a warband touhou module called fairy wars or something along those lines, either that or I dreamt the damn thing, neither would surprise me

I feel a little bad for ending my merc contract with the fierdsvain since I've befriended several of their lords by rescuing them from captivity and helping turn the tide on a few battles, but they're a sinking ship being torn apart by the numerous trans continental invasions and their 3 neighbors

Not sure, might be? The 3d model looks familiar but the buildings and structures looks more polished than I recall. But then it has been years since I saw the mod.

i've never even taken a look at it.

The Touhou mod is unexpectedly elaborate, if very unbalanced. Scarlet Mansion is such an obvious modder's pet with the map location being the only handicap that I'm half-tempted to just let the AI currently raping it into oblivion happen.
It pushing you to dress up as other characters if you wanna have any hope of competing with the giganigga lords zooming around like Sonic and eating dozens of 70+ damage shots is some peak faggotry likewise.
