Rhodaks are a threat to mankind and should be all exterminated.

If you leave everyone alone and fuck off to set up industry and shit, are the Rhodoks and the Sarranid the smartest factions?

While all the other kingdoms are actually having serious battles these two usually just war with each other trading a single unimportant castle back and forth while consolidating their power

Well, Ichamur might as well be run by Steppe Bandits, Rivacheg has Sea Raiders waiting to rape everything that moves, and Yalen is in the ass end of nowhere behind 7000 Mountain Bandits.

Really any city that requires you to play pest control to keep the economy afloat is gonna end up a ghetto shit hole.

Special mention goes to Dhirim, since being under siege is its natural state.

Is there a mod that lets me be a notorious bandit lord? I'm talking about waylaying caravans, kidnapping ladies to hold them hostage, and of course building a hideout for my scum of the earth to rest at.

My game bugged out and my generals turned on me, suddenly I was at war with my own kingdom and strangely enough I was still the king of my kingdom after I started to fight it, but I couldn't control it.

Anyone else encounter this bug?

So is the PoP guy like genuinely autistic or something?

I heard on /vg/ that he misspelled the name of the mod by accident, but rather than rename it Prophecy of Pendor he tried to justify it with lore somehow? And that he also thinks PoP is going to become an official paid DLC for Bannerlord licensed by the developers?

>>383839486
Renown. But really, reread the post again, it's 1000 troops in a city, not in a party.

>>383839226
They're both actual words and their meaning/definition is similar enough that I my self am too dumb to know the difference between the two outside of spelling. So it seems like a common mistake to me, why didn't he just admit he was wrong?

What is everyone's opinion of Khergit Lancers? I have about 40 of them and I win every battle I get into with maybe 2-3 casualties.

The steppe is a harsh mistress

I could never figure this game out. Some duke wanted me to go collect taxes from his town then give it back. So I got the taxes and got the fuck out. Traveled north with a pretty decent band to see what Duke's cock I could suck so I could join his army and got repeatedly buttfucked by viking bandits

>>383839843
I have no idea.

>>383839543
Eh, I just had my range units engage at their maximum weapon range and have them exchange volleys at each other while I snipe them from afar with my superior archery/crossbow skills while picking up loose arrows/bolts on the ground. Once both sides are out of ammo, I just order my men to charge in, have them die until respawn and repeat the process. Took a while, but my casualty is drastically reduced and I can still continue fighting after the siege is over from recruiting the prisoners.

>>383839867
>Khergit
lol no. They're good early game units, but they get stomped by anything resembling a decent army.

>>383839867
