I just came back to the game after a year hiatus, and I'm thrilled they finally actually added mechanics rather than just doing endless bug and balance patches that somehow break every mod with every patch. I discovered the sneaking tutorial, and then found out that basically every stealth kill or every other stealth kill gives a level of roguery. (5 focus points) now I'm wondering what's the point of alleys anymore. They were never particularly good, but at least there was an argument to be made that they increased roguery. But now that I can just go farm hideout stealth missions, earn way more money, keep my companions in my party, and not gain crime in the process, I'm wondering what purpose alleys serve anymore? (Alley income should be ×10 imo) submitted by /u/forfor [link] [comments]
After playing Warband all these years, I could never bring myself to like the Vaegirs. I always thought the idea of slicing through armies with Great Bardiches would make for a fun play through, but every time I'd just end up farming Vaegir armies for money once I outgrew bandits. So today I booted up Floris mod and decided to side with Yaroglek.
I racked in some denars, leveled up, got an army and became a merc for the Vaegirs. After an uneventful war with the Nords, we declared against the Khergits. Me and a few other vassals headed down to Ichamur from the mountains in the north to do some scouting before the marshal comes. No big deal, we could handle ourselves against a few Khergs, right?
Then out of no where, a fucking steppe bandit hero comes from the east with at least ten other 30-40 man steppe bandit units and flanks us hard. Two of the vassals flee back north, and I'm stuck in a pitched battle with the weakest lord left. We end up in a 70 v 450 fight that decimates us and breaks up the rest of the Vaegir army from their assault on Ichamur.
The Vaegirs literally couldn't even handle a bunch of steppe bandits.
I'm going back to Rhodoks
