Why are twohanded axes the kings of weapons?
>>
>>123490704
In my experience a shield/hammer will fuck it up. You tank one hit, hug them, and then beat their shit in with overhead strikes from a hammer or some shit. 2hand polearms are useless 1v1 against a shield/one hand combo, only good with support so you can run into say, the chokepoint in a castle, and swing away. I have one in my inventory for that exact purpose.
>>
>>123490941
Stabbing weapons are shit in general, even worse in 1257. Got a lance? Nope its broken on the first charge regardless if it hit the rider.

This is an old webm that I forgot to post a few days back.

I thought it was fucking hilarious. I'm just riding around minding my own business when suddenly I see Harlaus alone, running his ass off from the entire Vaegir army. I would later destroy this same army and shortly thereafter become my own king.

Still, this moment right here, comedy gold.

The posse grows.

Being King and Marshal has it's advantages. This is only about half, matheld/alayen/nizar are all hovering around 100 men and they're elsewhere.

Man it's fun being king. Any tips on how to make their armies better? I've started giving some of them recruits, but I would like to know systematically how to make these lords more formidable. Right now most of the lords are endgame level at like 150-500 guys. My lords rarely fight unless I'm leading them, hopefully they'll grow less pathetic in time.

Not a great deal, but the default difficulty settings are super low and you can always select the option to save and quit whenever you want for savescumming. In that case it's not too bad, but if you go with the "realistic" save mode you're gonna find yourself very upset when your first Warband gets utterly destroyed by some Steppe Bandits and you have to start over.

So I'm a mercenary for Swadia, and I'm wandering around in rhodok territory, when I find count Plais imprisoned at castle Etrosq. I have not received any quest to free him, I'm pretty low level, and my party is too small to simply take the castle. I've never rescued a captured lord before.

you gonna get fucked up early on

only the strong-willed can endure these trials and rise as a warrior of Calradia. Thine strength/agility must each be at least twelve for tier 4 horses and good weapons, any higher and thine specialty will be leading small elite forces from the front. Intelligence/charisma are your most important stats as a leader and sacrifice the durability of the player for the sake of larger armies with a better chance of surviving wounds and faster healing.

One can carve out a fine path as a warrior lord in Calradia with a strength/agility build, but will find trouble leading a growing empire as King against larger foes. Still, either is viable. Warband allows you to lead from the front or behind, whatever you choose to do.

Personally, I did a bit of a hybrid character, going for 18s across the board, because it's my first file and I wanted to experience a little bit of everything. I've got three really high intelligence companions and they help with tracking/leadership/healing skills. Personally this was the ideal compromise for me, allowing me to invest in str/agl while still benefiting from intelligence in my companions. A lot of skill points wasted though, never did shit with bows and I almost wish I dabbled in throwing axes. Oh well, doesn't ultimately matter, you can do admirably with small numbers and elite troops. I guess I wish it was a little less expensive, that's where charisma comes into play. Always remember to compensate your weaknesses with your companions, and make sure to focus on stats that are specifically "leader" stats, there are incremental bonuses at certain levels in your companions with lower leadership stats (2, 4, 8, etc.)but for the most part everyone should be specialized.

If I select this option, he allows me to become his vassal, even though my renown is only about 140-150 or so. I thought my renown had to be 200 before I could become a vassal?

Renown required to become a vassal is about 150ish, not 200.

That could be achieved pretty easily in Warband with a simple script.
>>
>>123530347
the less scripts the better desu
you can already kind of get it anyway if you put thrown items in their inventory but don't set the ranged flag, i think it's like a 50% chance to spawn with it i'm not sure
>>
>>123528609
I guess it depends on what cavalier type I'm playing, for heavy I usually just roll out in the field with a lance, sword, and shield. Switch to javelins or crossbow for sieges.

Skirmisher I go light, a sword, a shield and a crossbow/thrown weapon. Thrown weapons are kind of not good from horseback.

Low level + high level just means that you can pump their trainer skill higher earlier. This contribution is underrated as players forget that Warrior companions level faster + trainer stacking.

So I was traveling incognito in hostile rhodok territory, trying to find lady Isolla so I could overthrow king Harlaus. But I guess, when traveling incognito, you can't actually enter castles, so I wasn't able to meet with her. Anyway, on my way back to friendly lands, I noticed that Harlaus was besieging the city of Veluca. I made it to the city just barely in time to take part in the final assault, in which I killed a grand total of three dudes. I basicly just hung back with Jeremus and Deshavi and plinked at the enemy with our bows, while Harlaus and his retainers charged in with his vanguard like a champ. Afterward, Harlaus thanked me for fighting "side by side" with him (IE, standing on the parapet twenty feet above him, bopping rhodoks on the head with my arrows). I was grateful he didn't ask me what I had been doing in rhodok territory before I joined the siege. "Oh, nothing, your grace, only trying to undermine your rule by consorting with a traitor and would-be usurper who's been hanging out with your enemies over in Yalen."

I once charged 30 mamuks with 10 companions on horseback, like some kingdom of heaven shit. They were dropping left and right and eventually it was just me and alayen fucking shit up. We both got surrounded but fought our way to each other and proceeded to slay the sand filth in glorious fashion before hastily retreating to my infantry. Thats when i decided my companions needed lances and alayen was a fucking boss

10/10 knight would battle in seemingly hopeless conflicts again

Its cool m8. These are from a pretty old game and I am actually a bit irritated with the +2 AGI. Typically I will go full INT after 30 STR for these characters to max skills in the following priority:

Trainer --> Power Draw -> Power Strike -> Iron Flesh || Persuasion

Recent game I turned all of the non-noble companions with companion bubble issues into dedicated diplomats... And I am actually regretting not doing the same for my noble companions as companions are mediocre lords anyways due to low renown + being martial (at best) + having no friends among the default nobility.

anon your playthrough is going just like mine. I was a merc for swadia, wanted to be a lord but Harlass was getting his butterbutt kicked, so I joined rhodoks instead, waited for swadia to die. I took many castles and towns, and after many months I was finally denied a castle I took, allowing me to rebel and revive swadia.

Don't get too buddy buddy with the rhodoks lords or it will be hard to get the king to deny you a fief. Took forever for me because I made the mistake of gaining graveth's favor. Try being marshal and try to stack your controversy past 50 and then start taking castles. Eventually you'll be denied one. You should rebel a lot sooner than I did to be quite honest family

>>
>>123631245
depends what you want, geko is pretty polished and has fun pike and shot warfare but there's a lack of troop variation as there's basically 3 troop types: pikemen, archers/gunners, and cavalry
PoP is closer to traditional M&B of every faction having their best unit and the rest being shit, along with a bunch of other fantasy stuff in it

Alright, thanks. Since I just got done with Floris I think Pendor sounds more appealing at the moment. Any tips for someone whose favorite tactic is holding back and letting archers chew up the enemy?
>>
>>123631640
Although, you should play 1257 anyways because it's all HISTORICAL, and thus wildly unbalanced and sometimes blatantly unfair in a very refreshing way that will be challenging, but in a way that doesn't make you go "hey fuck this, that is a magic asshole elf/demon, this is bullshit".

Instead you get so angry your eyes throb because the King of Norway decided to sail for about a week to powerfuck your fief with every lord in the Kingdom of Norway and you can't do anything, or because random bandits proceed to kill your horse, break your shield, and gank most of your party because throwing weapons are pretty mean, and then they steal your armor and/or horse and rob you of most of your very expensive mercenary company, totally fucking you.

You never really get over losing the armor, much less the horse because good horses are eye wateringly expensive in that mod.

You also probably will experience other, migraine inducing fits of anger because of how amazingly annoying Knights in any form are, especially how any large enemy group will have such a clusterfuck of them and will happily use them liberally.

You might also get quite annoyed at how prevalent crossbowmen are in general, and how pettily bitchy different troops are about working with each other.

It's fucking great, I swear.

I'd argue that they're the best archers in PoP due to the "superior" archers being harder to obtain. Noldor are nice and all but getting some takes a lot of time and effort and losing one is extremely painful for you. Quantity (and good quality) over absurdly high quality, if you will.

Also I second that Barclay Sappers thing. Those guys are worth every penny and make a fantastic addition to any warband.

Unique troops anon here, looking for opinions on diversity of faces. I'm now setting face info for each individual troop, but there's a fucking LOT of it if you want to do it properly, face codes are fucking 256 bits. So instead I'm taking shortcuts and in particular, I'm leaning towards just cutting out 100% of the face slider stuff so all troops are exactly identical in face structure, only differentiated by the different face, hair and beard options, hair colour and age. Pic related is an example of this.

Does everybody think this would be totally fine? I initially tried randomly setting the face sliders and the results looked absolutely fucking retarded, not sure how the game engine does it.

i'm 95% sure the game doesn't actually pick faces between the two face codes, it just uses those two face codes for troop faces
i've never seen one troop type with more than two different faces

It does pick randomly, the algorithm is just bad and the two "end" codes get unfairly weighted.

The same goes for troops and items where you can't specify "if I have this item, then don't give that item" and you end up having troops with three daggers. The RNG systems in warband are crap.

I want to believe in the coming of the Bannerlord.
Also you can "finish" VC by completing the bugged questline.
TLD also has an end when you beat the armies of mordor at the door of it.
And for updates on Bannerlord we only learned that it will be possible to have kids and even mandatory if we want to continue or playthrough since characters will die.
Lords will be able to recruit companions too.

>>123685729

I managed to win this fight, but they are still running around, sadly.

Before siege, I managed to take back Curaw from Nords (who took it from Swadians, who took it from Vaegirs), but had to rush back to Khudan and now Curaw was taken back as well.

Now I cant retake Curaw again or Khudan will be left only with 50 troops.

This sucks, really.

>>123686040
If you havent downloaded diplomacy, you should. It allows you to mass recruit peasants from your constable in your castles/towns and you can tell him to train them into soldiers or train them yourself, you can garrison your cities better. Also allows you to create patrols that can be used to garrison. Youll need to be there to defend or autocalc will give it to the highest number, but at least it will solve your garrison problem. With solid garrisons everywhere, just wait for attacks, crush their armies and capture their lords. Run them down on the field with knights and ride to already-garrisoned castles full of crossbows and slaughter them outright in siege defense. The key is beating them in sieges and then capturing their lords and harrassing them so they cant marshal together and conquer anything.

Is there actually a way to convince your king to stop the war?

All the villages near Khudan and Curaw are looted, both Nords and Vaegirs constantly try to siege both of those towns and yet Harlus claims that war is okay, because they captured some land and have "upper hand".

I dont see this upper hand from my position, of sole defender that cant even form garrison due to massive armies playing riding and pillaging.

And then everyone went to Praven for tournament or feast or something. Come on!

Yeah, something like that, i was trying to imitate the lance drills you see where horsemen do an overarm stab with the back end. I had to work my way around the illogical hidden limitations of the engine and couldn't finish it before I released 2.0.

I've finally found a solution though, so now swords should act like they do in native while spears should have an overarm stab (redid the animation)
>>
>>123699927
personally i don't think it's really worth it, since you have to replace the overhead animation with another upstab

you should use the regular upstab flag for non horseback polearms though, because the regular upstab flag uses the thrust damage value for its damage rather than the swing one, so you can add sideswings back to 2h polearms without it being pierce damage like it is currently
i'm guessing you're using the overswing_musket flag for 1h weapons overhead

Any fucking time I watch a LP of M&B, they ALWAYS start off by buying weapons and armour in a town. Is this actually the normal way people play the game or are these guys just all retarded, because it seems so obvious to me not to do this. You KNOW that when you defeat enemies you're going to get free equipment and that when you buy it you pay like 1000x what you get for selling it, so why the fuck wouldn't you just keep your money for recruitment/wages/food/tourney bets and get your half-decent starting equipment from loot?
>>
>>123707090
good luck finding good quality weapons on the ground, rare you'll find good/lordly equipment after a battle.
>>
>>123707418
>lordly equipment

I'm talking about the beginning of the fucking game, when they buy some of the lowest-tier shit possible with the handful of shekels you start the game with. Obviously when it's late game and you're drowning in denars you might as well spend it, but immediately at the beginning? Buying shit that you'll replace soon enough with looted gear from bandits?
>>
>>123707083
That's the thing, I can never remember. I do a bit of modding here and there without really planning ahead, and especially with items and animations I usually forget what i've done and what I haven't.

What if I wanted a jousting lance, or a certain horse, or a specific blunt weapon? Usually the weapons are in shitty condition when you loot them, personally I find it easier to find a weapon I want in shops and my first big purchase is likely going to be some sort of weapon like an arming sword so I want it to be a good one and not some worn rusty shit.
>>
>>123707090
You don't get worthwhile weapons from enemies until about a month into the game. If your want to save time rather than money, buying armour and weapons straight away is optimal. In most mods anyway.

People who buy chainmail-tier armour right off the bat are stupid though. Usually a good horse and a helmet are my first purchases, otherwise I can never manage to solo sea raiders.
>>
>>123708449
This.

The same way you built yourself up to that point originally, but now with experience and hopefully some extra capital laying around: with grit and determination.
You did set up enterprises, right?
>>
>>123714515
It's twp step process
1.Always check who are you attacking
2.Go to other end of map

Please fucking god, tell me there's some way to cheat or exploit the game to get quest merchants to give you the quest and quest target you're looking for. Savescumming is just so fucking time consuming.

I just mean for the early game. I always do one in each city in the faction I start out in, but I like to scum for particular quest targets, to maximize the efficiency of my route from town to town / city to city. (Just a random autistic thing I do.)

I just wish every city were like Uxkhal, where the quest guy is right inside the main gates, on flat ground, so you can just gallop up to him and engage him in dialogue without even dismounting. Savescumming in Uxkhal is so fucking easy.

>>123714515
You might want to recruit some infantry because the game, being focused on pike&shot basically revolve on a triangular relation where Rifles beat infantry; infantry beats cavalry and cavalry beats rifles.
Also since you're using the european mercenaries you might want to get them better armor (yes even for the riflemen)
This will make recruitment more costly but the troops much more durable.
If you're short on cash just grab say 500 cash and buy Gunpowder at the lower price possible (usually in the far southeastern corner of the map) at around 150-250 moneys . Then find a nearby fort that will buy it from you at 800 or +.
That will get you a solid base of cash. From there just trade as usual.
Hit : in some villages you'll be able to buy some goods at 90 or so and sell them in certain forts (not cities) at 250+.
With all that dosh you'll also be able to buy the best guns for your musketmen

>>123716564
well I did give my original group pikes for horses but I guess they can't effectively use them compared to the infantry, I didn't expect to get rolled over by 20 guys when my riflemen were decimating most opponents up until now also a bit worried about making money easy ways like village looting since it pisses people off

>in some villages you'll be able to buy some goods at 90 or so and sell them in certain forts (not cities) at 250+.
didn't know that, thanks
>>

There's no enterprises in WFAS.
On that village thing : since you're new I'll try to save you some time : in forts you'll sometime find some tools and / or ale at low prices (respectively 140 and 30).
Those can sell for 350+ and 80+ in villages. That's because villages in WFAS sell raw materials at slow prices and buy processed goods at high prices.
Oh and IIRC furs can be bought cheap around NArva and sold high in the far eastern corner of the map (where you'll buy powder)
Oh, and don't bother with village troops, realy.

I've been using the swedish mercenary camp troops, are there better way to get troops, any none mercenary?
>>
>>123716143
This is already a feature in Silverstag. You should try it.
>>
>>123718653
>are there better way to get troops
Yes, via Commanders in town centers. But you can only use those if you're a part of the faction wich controls the city. And you might want to be richer and more experienced with how the game works before that.
European Mercenaries are the best mercenaries imo. They're the only one that can have half armor, wich is the second (third maybe) best armor in the game.
Also don't forget to give helmets to your infantrymen since they'll be the one to deal with cavalry.

yeah, I don't even really know what's considered rich, most I had was 15k. most of what I know about the game is what I gleamed off of the noob guide for warband since they seem the same mechanic wise.

You should be ok as far as fiefs go, it's just their token excuse to not give you a fief right offhand. Any expansion the kingdom does, or anything you take yourself, you'll probably get. I did that with Graveth, and pretty shortly I was granted a recovered Ergellon Castle and it's village, so that was an early boon to me; and later the western Rhodok castle and Yalen, both Lords defected to the Sarranids; I was able to convince Gutlans of Yalen to return back to Graveth, which he did (helped that he was my bro). Maybe a week later Graveth indicted him for treason, which I disliked although I understood, but to my glad surprise he granted me lordship of Yalen afterward.

One thing is that game most of the original Rhodok lords have defected, but a core is still there and with myself the Rhodoks are pretty strong although haven't expanded much outside the original realm.

She only dislikes Borcha and Rolf; because of her background she despises outlaws, especially males. She favors Klethi; so it's basically you can't have Deshavi and Borcha at the same time; because Klethi too dislikes Borcha. I do like Deshavi/Klethi in general but sometimes I like going with BROcha, so when I do I have to abstain from those two girls. Every companion has 2 people they dislike, and 1 person they like; if you balance 1 they dislike with 1 they like you can manage conflicts.

Kills your honor rating and relationship with villages. That doesn't sound like much, but honor rating is great for getting free relationship points with good-natured and honorable lords, whom usually make the most reliable and loyal vassals if you go independent (provided you can recruit them, of course). Also burning a lot of villages can fuck you over if you need to raise up an army quickly to shore up a garrison or recover from losses.

Also it's bad long-term for the economy of that region; not only the villages themselves but their market towns will suffer as well. I think between that and the restricting of peasant recruits, it isn't the best interest of the player to loot villages indiscriminately.

Dear /mbg/.

How to properly defend yourself during sieges in Native?

Every single guide or discussion section around the net talks about how to properly attack during sieges, but without any info about how to utilize your troops during defense to maximum amount.

I just got mad today, as Im deserately trying to hold my two towns I conquered myself - Khudan and Curaw from both Vaegirs and Nords. Half-brain Harlus started war with both and dont bother with peace and Im tired of strugging to gather some 50 men to garrison only to have to face way too much enemies every few days that spawn from thin air. Or retake Curaw over and over and over.

Today, when I ran from defending Khudan (had to beat 600 Vaegirs troops this time and I must admit that I was broken enough to reduce difficulty in option from usual 111% to around 40 by reducing damage to friendly troops and yourself) right into Curaw to defend it from Nords, I got mad. 1000 Nord warriors were sitting in front of Curaw. All of this while Harlus and Swadian whole army happily pillage some random villages far away from real frontline.

How the hell Im supposed to defend from something like that? I cant carry insanely huge army with me and all villages at the north part of the map are in constant state of looted.

Please help.
>>

Oh and this retarded Marshall gets butthurt that Im not joining his glorious campaign of villages pillaging.

What faction is the easiest to beat as humans in warsword?

Army is 50% Halberds, 25% Riflemen, 25% Mounted Knights
>>
>>123795679
I hear the key for defence is archers with some heavy infantry for the ladders/siege engine, Curaw is supposed to be a great defensive city.

The problem with archers is that only small portion of them actually stand at the walls, rest just wait nearby and not shoot at all. I cant order them to hold certain positions, since that would make them rush to single point, with even less being able to actually shoot.

With Huskarls and Swadian Sharpshooters, the best I could do was defeating 500 Nord troops before failing. With reduced difficulty I mean, around 200-300 with normal one.
>>
Okay, abandoned Curaw, retook it back (this time Nords left 250 troops instead of standard 100), guess what? 1000 people army is back few in-game hours later. And then...

"Roleplay"

They expect every to RP like some autistic 12 year old playing with his action fiugures. The 1257 devs are just manchildren and add in useless "RP" features because they are too stupid to add in actual things to do.

I dont want to run around calling my YE OLDE DUKE OF FORNSWORTH AND I HAVE COMETH TO SLAY YE while wearing some shitty armor because it 'looks cool'. I want to win. And Manors do not help you to win in any way.

>And Manors do not help you to win in any way.
what
you can call a fucking army from every manor you own, if you fully upgrade it you can make a castle next to your village
they're really useful but require a large investment sum and time, so it's good to work on them at peacetime since your village won't be looted all the time
you can get knightly order troops from them and they have merchants/income, but the merchants and income aren't that great

>>
>>123825452
you can raise armies of 250~ per manor at once, if you steamroll a faction and take a bunch of villages you can easily get a massive army
>>
>>123823449
not all mods are on the workshop and it's generally better to just install them manually
>>
>>123823449
Warband mods are extremely easy to install, and half of them come with installers anyways. But yes, for the ones that on the workshop, it is just a click
>>
figured out why everybody runs at sonic speed in viking conquest:
can_run_faster_with_skills was set to 1, if you set it back to 0 everybody moves at regular warband speed
i don't know what this option does, since with it on 0 people still move faster with higher athletics and skills, maybe it just enhances the movement speed bonus?

Because feasts.

On a more serious note, they're right at the centre of the map and have to deal with a lot of enemies. What usually happens is that they start losing fiefs due to their position, making the lords a bit less happy, Harlaus throws a feast to make 'em happier which leaves more fiefs undefended letting enemies take them, which farther pisses off the lords which makes Harlaus throw another feast and so on and so forth.

Being Harlaus is suffering.

Playing native expansion as a female right now. For some goddamn reason the dark knight invasion failed but there's still a couple of dark lords. I married one of them and convinced him that he's the rightful king.

I don't know why any of you want to be a king. As wife, I have all the benefits of king (assigning fiefs, declaring war, indicting a vassal for treason) but it's always through my husband. I don't get any bad reputation. If I'm too lazy to micromanage he does it for me

Best part: I can put all my troops in my husband's town and I don't pay for their wages

no that is a fauchard

So why did they start using a little tiny crescent for the "axe" bit? It seems like it wouldn't really do shit.

polearm terminology is pretty ambiguous tbqh
i mean there's obvious shit like the difference between a pollaxe and a glaive, but the difference between a pollaxe and a halberd? a pollaxe can have the same characteristics as a halberd but still be called a pollaxe
likewise with a fauchard and a glaive, or a ranseur and a spetum

Tetsubo are kinda like axes to me : I can't find them practical to use in combat. With a polearm, you have some room to breathe, even with a spear that can only poke and not slash, but a tetsubo puts you close to the enemy.

If I had to fight someone with a weapon, I clearly wouldn't try using one.

Dear /mbg/.

I followed your advice and installed Diplomacy mod but ran into a little problem right away - when I talk to the guys at castle to appoint constable to recruit troops, when Im being asked how many troops I want to recruit, my character always reply "no one" and end topic.

So I'm allied with the sandpeople in Floris, I have 3 castles and 2 villages, at least a 1000 garrisoned troops (mostly recruits to bluff sieges). I have high renown, and release lords so most my friends are at war with me. Horse and spear fuckers are down to two towns, Swadia is big but we have 5-6 towns now. When/how should I rebel? How do I take advantage of my friends and good relations? Should I start imprisoning evil lords? And do I always imprison enemy kings? I have high honor and 15rtr.
>>
>>123816240
Nords have the best infantry, Rhodoks have the best archers, Swadians the best cavalry. Khergits have decent horse archers that are quite difficult but fun to use properly, and Sarranids are decent all around but will get rekt by specialized units. Vaegirs have bad everything except for archers, which are merely mediocre.

You probably don't want to use the cutting edge of an axe against armor, so flip it around and use the pick or hammer part of it.

depends on the axe, depends on the armor
by the later medieval periods axes tended to have picks on the reverse side for anti armor, but axe blades themselves can still pierce mail but again it depends on the quality of the head, the mail, as well as all of the other factors that go into melee combat
axes tend to hit with more force than swords do, they're actually lighter than swords too with the heads generally being between 500 to 1100 grams (approx. 1lb to 2.4lbs) but they're shorter, and since all the weight is focused at the head they're top heavy and unbalanced, just like maces and warhammers

Nah it definitely had bolts nearby. I'm sure. Though given how the weapon is built it would have shit accuracy. Probably why it seems unused compared to these.

the higher draw weight crossbows were usually windlass which had a pulley system for drawing and setting the string
as far as i'm aware the only crossbows that were drawn by hand were ones with a low enough draw weight to be drawn by hand, or earlier crossbows
later crossbows had a number of different lever types as well as mechanisms like the windlass
hand crossbows seem to have been used by heavy cavalry as a sort of engagement thing, similar to pistols that reiters used

My game is ruined. 600 in-game days wasted.

Every single faction has had at least 4 vassals defect to the Vaegirs.

Each other faction has only 15 vassals at the most, Vaegirs have fucking 38 vassals.

I can't get a single fief I take as marshal because I get too much "controversy" while the 30+ vassals raid every single village across the fucking map in a giant mob that would put Goon Swarm to shame.

Every castle they take has at least 150+ troops defending it, even the ones in bumbfuck nowhere.

Did I fuck up somewhere? How the fuck is this acceptable?

That's not the problem. The problem is everyone fucking defected to one faction and no other faction can do shit.

I tried my best to "team up" with the other factions, but there is only so much you can do with the A.I.

Literally, and I mean literally, every village that wasn't belonging to the Vaegirs was looted or being raided at the time I was marshal.

They had at least one castle in every part of the map.

Not the normal sallet, the rhodok sallet with the full face visor. You can see an ear sticking out of it, same with the armet. Some of the vaegir helmets suffer from this problem as well.

Also, of fucking course the base game is boring. Have you seen how tiny and pathetic it is compared to some of the major mods like 1257ad?
>>
>>123920338
Also the troops don't work right. I've never seen most troops fucking use their polearms, even the Rhodoks herp derp and rarely put the formation AI to proper use. I can steamroll every faction even on mildly hilly terrain by just getting 100 or so Knights/Hobilars from Swadia and ordering them to flank and charge. Rinse and repeat, you'll dominate every single faction in the game in pitched battles.

1257ad meanwhile has polearm troops that actually fucking use their spears, and they can seriously fuck up knights if you bungle a charge and smack into one of their formations. They also move in formations too, which is something you don't see done properly that often.
>>
>>123918764
Well, there are plenty of problems with Floris. Lot of the armor is just given European names, like "Dutch Longsword". It has a problem with balancing, which is why you can have a bandit army with over 3000 soldiers. The tournament system, while a bit better, is also too easy. Some of the factions are nerfed hard compared to their vanilla versions, and their vanilla versions could have used a buff.
>>
>>123920440
That mod is just as boring, if not more because there's way less action despite having more factions. None really want to break the peace unless you're already in a nation that's already at war, and even more of the armor doesn't match and clips than anything in Floris.
>>
>>123920716
i haven't played floris in ages but i can't remember if polearm specific troops in it spawn with sidearms too
if they do then they have a chance of not spawning at all with their polearm, instead just their sidearm, i noticed this in ACOK with the halberdiers

1257 is weird because it not only has an older version of PBOD, but it has some unique stuff to it like making troops that can spawn with polearms always spawn with a polearm (except in scenes like bandit lairs) and of course the horse archer AI

the mod has its own flaws and runs much worse than other mods but it's the most strategic mod i've played

Can I get any input? I'm up to 4 castles, and the Sultan is about to give me Veluca.

>>123900026
>When/how should I rebel?
Keep asking for fiefs until you get denied, then break away from your faction
>How do I take advantage of my friends and good relations?
if they aren't happy with their faction they could defect to you at any time, you could meet them in the field and ask you to join you but only if they're trying to run from you, if they're trying to attack you then you just get regular combat dialogue
>Should I start imprisoning evil lords?
generally no since they could defect to you, better to have high relation than low relation with them unless you don't want them

yes since kings can't defect

i think 15rtr is the minimum to start your own faction

Well the evil ones are the ones with lowest relation, since i've released them so many times which apparently they hate. But I understand, It's possible they could join me.

What should I expect once I defect? Does everyone declare war on me at once or just my old faction? Thanks for the help
>>
>>123926127
>What should I expect once I defect? Does everyone declare war on me at once or just my old faction?
just your old faction will be immediately at war with you, others may declare war on you in time but it depends on how large your kingdom is, how many vassals you have, if they feel threatened, if one of your fiefs once belonged to them they may go to war over reclaiming lost territory
also having more RtR means your claim is more valid which makes it less likely for them to delcare war on you

Whats the point, you can already stop cavalry with a shieldwall or ranks. If you want to hammer and anvil you don't need pike bracing, shit if you want to stonewall cavalry just climb a hill. Floris is unbalanced but at least there's some troops variety, 1257 is so homogenized the only thing that changes about your troops is the banner they fight under and the Mamluk/Khanate/Mongols get horse archers.

I like it, but it's evidently not for everyone.

there's no more troop variety in floris than there is in 1257

Given how autistic the creator for 1257 is for "historical accuracy" I'm surprised there's even an option to play as a female.

Can you even conceive how butthurt /mbg/ would be without exploding in the process if that happened?

>>123929101
It won't allow me to play as a cute loli without breaking the sprites (see >>123683151), in his defense.

>>123929316
I can conceive it. We would get like 5 threads in two days just about the butthurt.

None that I know of, again from reading their comments about female companions and how adamantly they differentiated between a commander and a warrior I'm shocked they would let the player decide to be a female. It all seemed arbitrary to me, then again I didn't make the mod.
