>This fucking faggot

Don't you get that nobody likes your fucking incessant shitposting about some fucking chingchongs killing each other? You don't add in any way to this general other than annoying other people. You should, seriously, consider suicide right now.

Do you think you are funny? That you contribute to "board culture"? Nobody likes you or your posts and you should stop immediately.

The worst part is that you could've spent your time working on a mod of your own instead of shitposting in this general and be done with it by now. Either you're clinically retarded or you really don't care and is just in it for the shitposting. But considering what a horrible fucking meme this Cao cao-posting is you're likely retarded either way.

Hope your friends on Reddit will enjoy this answer, because I'm so fucking done with this general.

>>159424937
>a castle
Get a town first then consider defecting.

If you want to be a vassal stick with Rhodoks

If you want to unite the world as an independent faction join Sarranids, help them wipe Rhodoks, then create a new kingdom with Rhodok's culture.

thats correct

How the fuck am I supposed to start a rebellion and start my own Kingdom? By nearly everyone I know who plays this game's advice, they said join a faction then rebel later on. I have more fiefs than every other vassal in the kingdom combined and King Ragnar only has 3 more fiefs than I do. Yet every castle or town I conquer he gives me. I even conquered a castle, he was going to give me a different random castle and I declined it, and he STILL gave me the castle I conquered. We just destroyed Swadia and I own literally nearly every castle and city.

What the fuck am I supposed to do?

>>159430665

>>159430356

>>159439675
I played the DLC back when it had just been released and I just rolled over everything with the viking bandits (northmandr vikingr or whatever). Apparently they've been nerfed since then. I imagine the same is possible if you manage to get decent numbers of any high tier infantry, since AI armies are so diluted with trash, but what was so great about northman viking was that they were so easy to mass recruit.

> All my end tier heavy infantry kept getting spanked by elite vikingr
You mean bandits?

>>159440336
Ye, Danish / Swedish Elite Vikingr are probably the best single type of infantry in the game. Even Nord Huscarls in VK can't really fight them without losing numbers. They're like Sea Raiders that have drunk out of 1,000 skulls.

I think that's because it doesn't really have any super cool/fantastic action elements. The fact that the game is pseudo historical doesn't help as it adds even more nerd points. I've been trying to get my cousin who's into history to play m&b though. Too bad she doesn't really like video games

God tier:

Shit tier:
Everything else

>>159456751
okay, memes aside. Is Matt Easton really that good though? Also what did he do and the others don't that makes him seen as the "best" youtube medieval weapon expert?

question: how do you make sailing mechanics and naval combat fun or interesting in mount&blade warband

>>159457379

I did only put him in the decent tier.

Seriously he's pretty good though. He actually practises the stuff and is well read. He's humble about his knowledge and avoids making the common mistake of trying to 'reason out' (in reality, speculate) what people did historically

>>159457584
VC did a pretty good job
really what i imagine people want (and why people were disappointed with caribbean's sailing system) is to be on the ship while sailing it, fire the cannon at enemy ships, and close in and board
there was a MP mod that had ship combat like that, or at least you shot the fuck out of each others ships, don't remember what it was called

Lindy gets increasingly based with every criticism. He truly is an honorary Rhodok.

>>159458504
what sort of interesting things can you do on the map?

>>159459108
well you can sail all over, land where ever you want, which means you can land on any of the uninhabited islands and make your base there
trading's pretty lucrative in VC, there's a lot of bandits on the seas, shit like that

>>159458504
The boarding is jank as fuck. Another problem is archers just being really shit at there job.

>>159459216
boarding's usually fine but sometimes it acts weird due to the ship sizes and the physics acting weird
for archers they're pretty gimped in VC, might be worth testing pierce and seeing if it's really OP or not

>>159459429
I think my favourite is when you try to board the enemy and then the boat just rubberbands away from them to something else and you fall in the ocean.

>>159457584
Well i'd say you can make use of what mountain blade engine is good at: melee fights.

I think you can make boarding action more fun and engaging by adding various ways to board enemy ship, and make the objects aboard the ship (gunpowder barrels, rope etc) exploitable to fight the enemies

also this is just me but imo you don't have to put too much details in ship to ship battle. Sailing mechanics is just too complicated to program in m&b engine for a "realistic naval combat" and i think it doesn't really matter anyway, since from what i can conclude, when people think about naval battle the first thing that pop in their minds is boarding action, swinging on ropes, swashbuckling and all that jazz

>>159460659
well the most fun parts i found about caribbean were ship to ship boarding on the larger ships because of how expansive it could get
the climbing/rope swinging was great too

But this is false. Even Vaegir is much more viable than people think. Thats what happens when you let your meta be defined by other people talking about the game.

>>159472896
Sarranids are underrated due to being arguably more versatile than Swadia thanks to Jarid use. Unfortunately the meta among normie native players is basically: If you aren't using Rhodok or Nords mass Cavalry and then scream that offensive sieges are bullshit.

>b-but muh marskman!

which are garbage. They run out of arrows easily and miss most of the time. How do you take over castles? By being a cheap ass faggot retreating and back again whenever they run out.

It's a given that any faction can be decent as long as they're commanded by the player, but saying vaegirs are viable is blatantly false. They're stupidly impractical at best.

Pathetic.

>>159474235
>They run out of arrows easily and miss most of the time.
You can hold fire. Unless you are modding reinforcement waves running out of ammo shouldn't be a major factor. I frequently max out reinforcement waves just to make combat faster IRL terms and it is still tolerable.

You desperately need to play more mods and expand your approaches towards combat if you can't handle not having reliable shields. Especially when you are playing the faction with the best archers in the game.

Playing Royal Sandbox on VC. I really like the formations (even though I only ever use shield wall). That, and having infantry/spearmen/skirmishers allows for actual troop management and tactics on the field that aren't 'stand closer together' and 'advance ten paces' ad infinitum

I disagree, actually. Spearmen make for great defensive formations against cavalry and skirmishers, and are really useful for guarding your soft, soft archers (which, though not as useful in native, can still drop some hurt on your enemy if you make them hold fire until they get close). Infantry steam rolls over anything, though- but having spearmen separated allows for cursory hammer-and-anvil tactics without cavalry, which is way more damn fun than native.

Skirmishers should be separate from archers, though, because they fulfill different rolls.

countering against cav in VC is pretty irrelevant since cav is almost nonexistant, and skirms aren't really fast
skirms would fulfill different roles if they're jav skirms, but sling skirms are functionally the same as crossbowmen

Doesn't look like the same.

I think battle sizes are just an extension of engine problems- let's be honest, managing more than 300+ NPC's and all their projectiles/attacks/etc across a 4 acre battlefield is going to be engine intensive, no matter what you do.

I've seen horsemen still come up fairly often, playing against anglos.

I agree with what you have to say about skirmishers, though- VC has a setting where heavy gear nerfs skills, but I haven't used it. Supposedly, it makes light troops more viable, but I suspect I'll just be punished for being able to afford a hauberk.

Also, I'd probably lose even more Huskarls. No fucking idea why but I lose those fuckers faster than I do Veterans or Companions. It's like jumping from Veteran to Huskarl makes them magnetic.

I know horse scum hate having to do anything but F1+F3 but 1257AD made offensive sieges childishly easy.

you'll get fucked over doing that though since the defenders get infinite ammo and the attackers don't

>Find out there are two gates after F1+F3
These defensive layouts really have a hate boner for defenders

You don't AFK and expect them to kill everything. You kill as many defending archers as you can to weaken their initial positioning.

Defender AI can be surprisingly incompetent at getting back at ideal positioning due to spawn locations and allied troops blocking path. Furthermore defender archers tend to already be obstructed by the very fortifications that are supposedly helping them.

Based 1866 mod is still the best one there.

Too bad they axed the Chassepot. Shit was tight.

? there's only one gate in that siege scene on the main path
there's one to the right but it isn't used by the AI
>>159492203
even so there's usually 500 men to a town, that's a lot of archers
normally i just break the gate with a long reach polearm and then send my infantry/cav in to fight in the street
from my experience keeping men outside the walls just gets them shot to pieces by the ranged since there's no cover on that scene for attackers
