Whether I have a shield depends on the quality of armor.

If we mean gameplay I sometimes do both... I mix up my loadout a lot but the most common ones are:

1H - Small Shield - Tower Shield - Polearm
Bow - Arrow - Arrow - Polearm

Throwing weapons are almost always great on troops. Especially shield troops. If a game allows a player faction my infantry WILL have the throwing weapons available. Morgh's assures that.

Bow + Arrow + Arrow + Polearm can be fun on elite archer troops as well -- They can frequently slaughter flanking cavalry without aid.

I have to appreciate the scale and detail but... man. I guess you gotta be into the series to really like this.

And from looking at the wikia, seems to be no real possibility of a female army, or even elite female troops of any kind... meh.

I might just have to stick with Persino, seems to be the only mod that has a good amount of female soldiers to use.

>literally the best way to progress in this game
Nah m8. Merc -> King it is for me. Endless wars, fastest RTR gains, and it allows me to fight every faction as every faction. If the mod is well made learning about faction armies is half the fun. Being a Mercenary allows me to keep every faction alive and equally weak for when I do declare my faction.

If I need to I can always become a vassal far later on just to load up a garrison before rebelling -- Haven't needed to do that in any mods though. Its also demeaning for the future god emperor of Calradia.

I don't see the point of RTR, people will declare war on you regardless of it being 0 or 99

>>120845086
Makes it easier to proactively recruit lords. If your RTR is too low lords won't even acknowledge you as a King.

>>120845258 (addendum)
In theory excessively low RTR will also put you in a perpetual state of war.

I think this amount of RTR is abysmally low though. Problem on my end is that I basically fluctate from 0 RTR (quick cheat testing) and 99 RTR (true games and a mere byproduct of my merc play. Would be higher but caps)

This arbitrarily low RTR cut off is reinforced by players whom desperately hunt for RTR by sending companions as envoys (yuck) and getting married. If you are a Merc constantly fighting for weak factions you will be drowning in RTR.

None of the counts or kings in Swadia are in their castles and whenever I visit there's just some woman telling me they're "out in the field" and apparently they're always fucking out. I went to the Vaegirs and found a king that gave me some tasks/quests, but I don't really know how to progress from here. I already did everything for the first merchant I met in Praven, I'm kind of just wandering around and attacking villagers and demanding supplies from small towns in other kingdoms for money.

I was told by someone that I should attack Bandits to earn money and levels but I can't find any and most Bandits are too tough for my army. What should I do from here?

Player Faction Heavy Sergeants are also ridiculously good

>>120856953
??? You mean Arambai???

Most mods with muskets + archers tend to have archers be superior at high proficiency. Same applies to Gekokujo for example. Considering that you have to actively invest in power draw to make this happen I don't see this as a flaw. The opposite is generally a bigger problem, as guns in such mods tend to be stupidly strong (like 1860 mod) or bows illogically weak.

The game tends to force musket use for top tier ranged otherwise -- Even if they have bows. For example the Shah top tier archer unit has great power draw and msikets + bows. In-game though it seemed like 90% of my ranged troops used muskets.

Its possible that they may have spawned both but the retarded AI prioritized the higher base damage without considering their great power draw skill.

The only reliable top tier (faction) archer are the Lana Horse Archers. And while these guys ARE pretty ridiculous they are also made of paper and tend to become very retarded when doing anything else but holding position. In longer/larger battles their ammo is going to be brought to zero pretty quickly too.

Crossbow troops are great. Especially the tier 2 Portugese Crossbowmen. Lower damage does become notable when you are facing top tier European troops though. I've lossed ranged exchanges between Spanish Conquistadors and Portugese Crossbowmen and the only logical explanation I have is armor.

They are much better than I anticipated. As in giving an immediate charge order rekts castle defenders. I can likely just field a full army of these guys and always come out on top thanks to the AI.

>>120857825
Getting to the point of being able to even see those mechanics is turning out to be a pain in the fucking ass.

It doesn't help that the mod's formation scripting is subpar.

>>120857584
The arbalests are better, honestly, until the enemy gets uncomfortably close.
The Portuguese ranged units also have the annoying problem that any given soldier may decide to wear either a genuine helmet, or a fancy hat, which if the probabilities pan out in favor of fancy hats, can lead to hilarious casualty counts should your units come under fire.

how fucked up is Warwolf with regards to balancing? I'm okay with all the weird jap shit, but does it actually make for a satisfying game or is it 2 unbalanced 4 me?

>>120858431
If you want to make faction troops available ASAP you can just conquer a town, declare player culture, then proceed to allow your faction to become defeated. From that point on you should be given the option to recruit player faction troops from any village.

Even then though its just declaring a player faction. Due to Native size garrisons its not particularly tough to start your own kingdom in Suvarnabhumi Mahayuth.

Portuguese units also tend to ignore all melee weapons but their damnable Rapier. For this reason I tend to ignore their melee above Pikemen.

Makes them very easy to kill in sieges too.

The Portugese and Player Faction troops do have top tier armor that is otherwise unavailable to the player in markets though. Need to start farming them...

>>120858667
It'd help if the Portuguese had any infantry that used a shield, because it's also Native sized warbands.

Right now, I'm trying to find out what are good foot soldiers to front my ranged units, because most of the castles I've tried to siege are better designed than Native's to repel attackers.

You must not have played Native in a long tie m8. Native always has single entry points. Suvarnabhumi Mahayuth tends to have a minimum of 2 entry points.

If you are getting rekt invading its likey that you just haven't adapted to dealing with cannon troops. (Another thing that Portuguese lack.)

Suspect that mod creator may have made exception for Manipuri due to their faction basically being horse swarms that throw Arambai at you. Haven't tried invading Imphal yet as last game was largely babysitting Mrauk-U (Orange) from Manipur and my present game has me working for Red as they are at war with almost all factions.

>portuegese don't shields

I've been having a time of it.

I've been spreading out my hiring practices to try and see what actually works when it comes to knocking over forts, and just using the portuegese for their missile units.
I'd keep the infantry at Pikemen, but seeing the little marker that indicates that the troop can be upgraded makes me itch.

As much as I love Pike swarming... I wouldn't field heavy pikes in a siege. Portuguese top tier have exceptionally good armor at least. The Portugese Conquistadors should be able to; literally, face tank Arambai thanks to their +83 Burgonet helmets.\

In the end Arambai base damage is still 31. At at power throw 10 we are looking at 62 damage a throw. Biggest advantage of Arambai is their ammo -- but defenders have infinite ammo anyways.

>>120862985

Getting them to train up to that point is a chore, let me tell you.
And I suspect it's the Naka that are killing my conquistadors in the sieges.

And of course, my infantry melt when they mount the ladder anyway. I don't know what it is about the Portuguese that does it, but they do. Or maybe it's the 40 Arambai skrimishers standing 10ft back from the ladder top that throw a volley at every soldier as they come up.

It burns my ass, let me tell you. I've got it, must have been five times, where I had a bevy of marksmen and arbalestiers inside the walls, and lost the siege by single digit counts.

Ladder sieges prep time combined the player combat freezing the universe is an abomination.

Bannerlord either needs to allow map action to periodically update during long combat so that reinforcements can intervene or they need to make ladder siege prep as long as tower siege.

Personally I would love it if they found a work around for the player freezing time in-battle. This is the single most powerful tool the player has over the AI if they know what they are doing.

Whittling down enemy forces with ladder sieges partly depends on this -- There are perhaps many minor examples but I can think of one that gives emphasis to them all.

Consider a Marshal vs Marshal battle with multitudes of enemy lords on both sides. And also remember that once an AI is engaged in battle it will not draw proximity based reinforcements. This means that:

1) If you are fast you can 2v1 any lord that initiates combat
2) If both forces smash into each other they will likely splinter into multiple battles. The player can instantly resolve those with highest success of winning, and then tag along with the newly victorious lords in another ongoing battle. Continue doing this until the stack with the largest disadvantage suddenly has EVERY lord in your forces now turning the tide.

The biggest "disadvantage" that players have is in defensive sieges... But thats only in bad play due to locking themselves inside the castle before reinforcements can arrive. If the player "knows" (you never really know due to AI unpredictability...) they can turn the tide of a defensive siege once allied reinforcements arrive they should just wait for reinforcements to arrive or load all of their troops in-garrison while they wait for reinforcements to arrive.

This is why I sometimes have no troops in some of my defensive sieges, like image related. All siege troops are under your command once you engage in battle. There is no reason to lock yourself at a disadvantageous siege battle save sloppy play.

>>120895296
>Not using Noldor as free patrols

>I thought Anon's Tocans was zealously anti-firearms of any sort?
well i ended up adding it because i could have it and a sling still, which meant more variation really
so there are still slings and slingers but i had to remove the fustibalus in order to incorporate a handgonne and a handcrossbow
one of the main cruxes of the mod was as much variation as possible, and since i could get more interesting stuff (handcrossbow, handgonne, and sling) instead of less (staff sling and sling) i ended up doing it like that

Being able to go on rampages like this is precisely what converted me to melee play. That and not worrying about Friendly Fire.

Well that and all you really need to do this in *most* mods is 15-18 STR, permitting Warrior play with INT builds. Archery play; especially mounted archery, is still great but I dislike doing this unless I can go full Power Draw 10.

This game is kinda similar - lead band of soldiers and kill stuff just in turn not in real time.

In the Nova Aetas mod there's this mini quest to find the sword of king Haralus but I can't seem to find it, I can't make any sense of the riddle.

Did they remove the sword in the update or? I'm using the Steam version, if that helps.

Three new guys.
determined monk, coward and guys with asthma.
Truly quality recruits.
The character generator sucks in this game. Like a whole game.

Doing delivery quests to stay afloat. That mean no exp and only few coins.
What a sort of person live here?
Goblins?
No thanks.

Finally getting back into Warband after my year-long hiatus.
500 hours under my belt, but my new shitty laptop can't handle Floris anymore.

Regardless, any recommendations for play?

Go to the ruins of... I dunno. Praven or Suno.

Outside the city, there's a grassy hill near the river. There's a weird crack in the ground hidden by the the grass. That's where the sword is hidden.

You can always cheat and turn graphic settings to the lowest.

The game won't draw any grass so you can see that crack in the ground from half the map away.

maces stagger as well as hit stun i think

>>120896941
If you want more options, you might as well lift The Gathering Storm's magic system out of the source and stuff it in Tocan.

You can freeze people in place and then throw an earthquake on their ass for maximum combo damage.

It's right behind the statue. There's a small mound and the sword is stuck in the ground slightly behind it.

Also about Warphilia:
When I've tried using it, only the very first town has anything in its market. Then if I go to any other town, its either stuff that should be in the Trading Post, or it simply doesn't have anything. What the heck?

>>120932189
in all honesty, you shouldn't bother with warphilia, go play warwolf instead.
if you play warphilia for the horrible lewd stuff, there's a patch for warwolf that adds that shit

>>120936440
where dis patch pls.

not actually a lolifag, i just like having grim shit for the immersion factor. why be horrible raider if u cant oppress wimminz

>>120936440
I gave Warwolf a try, but that patch doesn't work for it anymore it seems. You just get a bunch of unloaded textures which results in a lot of floating heads and hands.

I just got done with finally "beating" the game for the first time in Diplomacy. Now I'm looking for something new. I'm up for any recommendations that aren't Prophecy of Pendor (I've heard about that one and it seems like shit). I don't care if it is medieval setting or not, and I'm also not looking for a game to jerk off to, just one that is fun to play.

Also, is Viking Conquest worth it?

>>120937719
>(I've heard about that one and it seems like shit)
Honestly PoP is good and it's arguably one of the most polished mods, but it definitely is not for everyone. You could try, say, 1257

>>120927657
>I heard you talking shit like I wouldn't find out

>>120938070


I don't like Prophecy of Pendor because it seems like it is for Mount and Blade edge lords who need an "extreme" challenge.

Thanks for the recommendation o 1257. I'm still up for any others.

>>120938826
>>120938826
yeah i feel the same way. played it like 5 years ago and it seemed fun enough, but saxondragon went off the fuckin deep end with the difficulty.

>>120937116
thx bro

>>120937156
ty for headsup

>>120938826
>it seems like it is for Mount and Blade edge lords who need an "extreme" challenge.
It isn't. The start is a bit harder but it isn't as hard as people claim it is, similarly to like Dark Souls.

>>120937719
Blood & Steel is loads of fun, also very different from Native.

>>120939415
Shut the fuck up.

Dark Souls has a steep learning curve.

PoP doesn't have a learning curve. It just has a grindwall.

If you change all your proficiencies to 100 and give yourself 10000 denars, you'll quickly realise that PoP is just a load of fucking bullshit.

The only good thing about PoP are the insane Chinese unofficial fanmods.

>>120941554
I wasn't comparing their difficulties, just how people claim they're both much harder than they are. Contain your autism.

>>120941887
I just explained why PoP HAS NO DIFFICULTY.

It's a grindwall.

It's like a fucking Final Fantasy game.

It's like a casual cookie clicker.

Bash head into wall for X time units, after X time units win game.

Fuck i just saw we got a history board now

mbg threads are now going to die even faster ...

>>120942375
>if you cheat and skip the hardest part of the game it's not hard anymore!

>>120943345
If PoP was actually difficult, it would still be difficult after getting past the grindwall.

It isn't therefore PoP isn't difficult.

>>120942375
It's the exact same thing for native.

>>120943554
That's my entire point.

PoP is Native + shitty ugly fantasy items + dumb elves + grindwall.

I can't play this game without setting the difficulty to easiest, and then I can't play for very long without becoming bored.

I just fucking hate getting captured and having the army wrecked. Game gets boring, yo.

What do?

>>120947343
Bite the bullet. Play it on a harder setting.

The rush of winning a nearly-unwinnable battle, the excitement of getting the fuck into a castle before some bandits fuck you over... that stuff is only available with some difficulty.

Also, turning off cheating helps.
