Tactics to win any battle with aserai as southern empire

Make a elite cataphract force of 50 than charge them to their horse division. Elite cataphracts are superior in all ways. Then, charge the horses on to the pikeman and archers then charge the soldiers and arrows. Dont forget that these has to be mostly legionaries. I hope my tips help. submitted by /u/Visible_Tax7920 [link] [comments]

AWoIaF question

Have seen many AWoIaF mod related posts (about half) over the past few days. I was wondering if it is a good mod to play even if you're not a huge fan of GoT. I remember seeing a post a while ago saying the mod isn't great if you did not know anything about GoT, I have read the books and watched a little of the show but am nowhere near as enthusiastic about it as others are. Thanks in advance! Submitted September 30, 2017 at 10:18PM by BingRazer http://ift.tt/2fHEeDh

[AWOIAF] How to marry Daenerys?

I became a vassal of Daenerys and I want to marry her, but there is seemingly no option to? I asked her if I could be affiliated with her house, but I don't think that is the same thing. So, is there any way to actually marry a female lord in this mod? Submitted September 30, 2017 at 07:06PM by Beepboop2000 http://ift.tt/2xOp4SF

Has anyone encountered them yet? I know they have their own troop tree, and i would like to see how good their units are.

[AWOIAF] How do I navy?

Hello, I've started a campaign and I'm RPing as Euron. Got myself 3 ships of oak and 150 goodmen as a start and I plan on terrorizing Essos. So I want to know everything there is to navy and ship system, like for example how do I toggle the sails on my ship(they don't show up in a battle), and also recommend me good units for naval warfare, tactics and targets. My endgame is to marry Daenerys and bring back Harrenhal and riverland dominion, maybe even the North too. Submitted September 30, 2017 at 11:00AM by dominancee http://ift.tt/2xNXRQj

[AWOIAF] Savegame compatibility issues between versions

Hello! I'm not really that experienced with modding in M&B and used Steam Workshop to play the AWOIAF mod. It updated automatically to 2.0 when it arrived, which made my beloved savegame unplayable. (The error message is the "incompatible number of triggers" or something) I tried to download 1.2 and 1.3 from moddb to see if I could play the savegames in those old versions, but it won't start in those versions either. It might be that a minor version of 1.3 was uploaded to the Steam Workshop and I had my savegame on that version, but that it was not uploaded to moddb? Maybe that makes plain 1.3 incompatible as well? Does anyone here know whether the mod files accessible right before the 2.0 launch (September 26th) is available anywhere? (PS! I have understood and learned not to use the Steam Workshop again for M&B mods, and I realize I have only myself to blame <3 <3 <3 ) Submitted September 30, 2017 at 07:03AM by kjetulf http://ift.tt/2xRCfTx...

Spear bracing with troops

So i'm playing a mod called "Warsword conquest", i'm currently with the Skaven Underworld and our enemy, Bretonnia has loads of cav units, when i tried ordering my troops to spear brace it worked and their cav were innefective.But then my troops just stayed idle bracing their spears, i tried to order them to follow me,charge etc...But they just stay idle and get massacred because they can't fight back. Is there anyway i could stop this from happening? Without spear bracing against their Heavy cav my troops are dead in seconds.I also tried other mods with spear bracing and i have the same problem every time, i don't know if my game is bugged or i'm just too stupid to know how it works.

[AWOIAF] Pirates

Does anyone else think pirates are a bit overpowered? They're not extremely tough one on one but they're cutlasses just attack so fast that if my units ever get in a group fight they almost always lose, even some more elite units.

My marshal is fucking moron

He literally does nothing. He randomly rides back and forth across the map. He changes his mind every two seconds about what needs to be done. And even though there's shit that needs doing, he wants me to follow his ass around. Instead of taking and defending castles on the frontier I have to hold this limp dick's hand for God knows how long. No one else heeds his summons, just me. And even though I'm the most productive warrior of our faction and have a good relationship with him, the motherfucker never takes my advice. Says he has other stuff to do. The hell you do. I'm seriously considering defecting to another faction, turning the noble executions Floris mod option on, and going full seek and destroy on Turya's ass.

How are you playing Warband?

I have been playing vanilla Warband for quite some time and I am wanting to spice it up a little with some mods. I'm curious what your go to mods are when playing? Are you playing total conversion mods or are you just modding the vanilla game? What are your essential mods that make the game the best version of itself? Thank you for your input!

Are Nords boring?

When I first started playing Warband, I was Nords all the way. I was, and still am, a huge fan of Vikings. But I noticed that compared to the other factions, they kinda got the shit end of the stick when it comes to aesthetics. It's all brown and grey. The Nord Huscarl, the most powerful infantryman in the game, is covered from neck to knee in poop brown. Not to mention that the Nords really only have two distinct helmets, and they're both hideous. I was excited to get my hands on a spectacle helmet, only to find it kind of a chore to look at. It looks like it was made out of used tinfoil. Even the Swadians and Rhodoks, who are both based on Western Europe, managed to be visually appealing in their own ways. But it seems like the Nords just got the leftovers when it came to equipment. Am I alone in this? Submitted September 28, 2017 at 09:48PM by WarmSlush http://ift.tt/2wnE9aK

Question about M&B Warband graphics? Ingame vs Internet screenshot?

So I just bought the game yesterday and played the single player campaign for a few hours - it has been loads of fun! However, why are the ingame graphics so ugly and look so different from screenshots I've seen? I have everything turned up to high and HDR on, but it looks more like TES 3 Morrowind graphics from 2002 than a game that came out in 2008. It looks much worse than the screenshots of Warband I've seen on the internet (which resemble at least TES4 Oblivion graphics or better). Are there mods that make the game look better or am I supposed to buy a DLC to make it look better? I just have the base/native version of Warband and it takes up only ~1.2GB of space.

[Silverstag] Neat alternative method for getting Right to Rule

Just to plug Silverstag again - it's great for anyone who likes vanilla Warband but just wishes there could be some more quality-of-life types of improvements. Despite some bugs here and there, 0.26 is quite polished and very much playable. One of those improvements is a very neat quest type introduced by the mod, that allows you to increase Right to Rule in an organic and RP-friendly way that obviates the need to 1) recruit as many companions as you can and 2) send them out 1 by 1 to shamelessly promote you, according to the order suggested by the wiki so that you can avoid short-term inconveniences that arise due to their bickering. In times of war, villages get looted. This is a fact of life in Calradia. However, the villages help each other as much as they can, because as the elders tell you, trade is the lifeblood of the people. So if you have a positive reputation (Honour is not negative), occasionally you can do this quest: http://ift.tt/2yvHh4X (a.k.a. what a certain o...

Need help with AWOIAF 2.0

I have over 3000 hours in warband so I'm an absolute veteran of the game. But with this mod i can barely get started, upgrade costs are so expensive i can't really find any early game way of getting money. Being a mercenary for a faction gives a measly amount of money that doesn't seem to scale with the quality or size of your army. I don't want to dump points into party skills like trading, because i can get a companion to do that later on. The small groups of peasants that i can get, can barely defeat the roaming outlaws and i just end up at an economic loss at the end of each battle.

[AWOIAF]Most epic battles/moments?

I had a really great time playing this mod ever since the update was released, and I was wondering what other people's fun times were. Here are mine: 1.Sea battle near Storm's End, Stannis + some Vassals vs Stormland vassals that were equal to our numbers, it was a HUGE naval battle, like 800vs800 men give or take, all on ships. I barely survived and had to resort to gangfights to keep myself alive in that mess. 2.Field battle vs Renly It was a literal Baratheonbowl, holy shit, Stannis had more numbers but it definitely came down to a double digits last men standing fight, I ofcourse, had to resort to gang fights once more in order to keep myself alive.

Viking Conquest: What's the point of infantry when we have spearmen?

My second post on this subreddit, lets see if we can get a discussion going! So i've been playing Viking Conquest for well over 500 hours and I've really immersed myself into the play style and reliance on tactics in this game compared to native and other mods. However, my issue is that of the usefulness of infantry in this game as opposed to their competitor, the spear-men. I found it initial an easy choice by looking at their stats first. For this example we will look at the Norse troop tree, to emphasize how strong spear-men can be. Norse Huscarls, by far, are the strongest unit in the game with 385 One-handed swing speed, amazing armor, power-strike, and Ulfberht swords. While the Norse Hersis are easily some of the worst high-tier spear-men with only 280 in pole-arms, good armor, at long spears. Despite these stats, in a shield wall it seems the Huscarls lose alot of their magic, in my personal experience. An amazing part of the shield wall is the ability for the other...

AWOIAF, Faction specific equipment.

So in the game, certain troops have select gear that I want. For example, the dornish troops have "sun shields", 'shortbows", and "Dornish shields". Specifically I really like the style of shortbow they use where it hangs off the hip, I also really like the shields. Is there a way to acquire these items?

GT 1030? Would it be enough to run Bannerlord decently?

I'm planning to build a cheap desktop pc to use along with my laptop for school purposes. The only thing I want to be able to do other than the school stuff is playing M&B series and of course Bannerlord is absolutely a must. What do you think about this graphics card? It is the only one I could find to fit my budget among the new products and I saw it can run GTA V on low settings so I'm assuming it can run Bannerlord as well. P.S. Where I live now(motherland of M&B), gaming graphics cards are almost luxury items. The cheapest GT 1030 here is around 320 liras which you could regard as 320 dollars or Euros if you live in a developed country. So they are really really expensive for me.

PoP Achievements Locked For Cheating

So I used up two of my warnings for this early in the game to finish some very easy battles/ finish off routing enemies because I'm lazy and impatient. No big deal, I cheat sometimes to skip "boring" parts of the game. The problem is that I just used cheats to instakill a bandit lair, because I know they aren't going to take out any of my companions and it's not fun for me. I already had to find the damn thing. Little did I know that this would count as an actual battle, and now I can't get any more achievement rewards. Of course, right after I finished that battle, but before it tells me that I am now cucked, I save. The only save for this profile I have. Is there any way to recover? I think it's really lame that a mod would punish you for cheating in a single player game in the first place. Why do you care if I cheat to have fun...It's not multiplayer!

I have destroyed the Swadians. They have no fiefs, and last I saw, Harlaus was rotting in prison. A few weeks have passed in-game, and one of my villages was raided by a vassal from Swadia. I attempted to attack him, but he was the only one in his army and he ran away pretty quick. How was this possible? Submitted September 23, 2017 at 07:36PM by KRTxBallistic http://ift.tt/2xrdlrz

Your most clutch moment

I just had mine yesterday. I almost lost my 600 days of warband career to one click. I was running around with my army as usual. 40 huscals and 40 crossbowmen. And rest were just training units. I encounter a bulk of Vaegir army with their king, of 303 men. I try to escape but get caught. And i try to escape by doing an auto calc battle and then leaving. I press surrender by accident. I get my whole army and companions taken. GG so many units lost. Plus jeremus. I head back to Curaw my home town. Take some recruits and head out to train em. Get caught, sacrifice some more units. Loose morale. Was caught 6 times. Exchausted about 150 units in my town. And boom army of Vaegirs is trying to seige Curaw. They have 200 units there. I rush there with my 50 more units and we have a match of 250 (recruits and random soldiers not top tier) with a buck of Vaegir army of 656 men. And damn that was the most epic battle I have ever seen. I knew once I lost Curaw i would have lost it all. No m...

Started playing vanilla Warband recently and I'm not sure what to do during peace time

I am playing as a Rhodok count, was given 2 villages that i'm slowly building up, trying to get on the good side of my king and a few other nobles. Our kingdom is not often at war and I find myself looking for other activities to do in thr meantime. Any tips? Would love to get my hands on a castle or wage more war but unsure of the process and growing my party size limit is taking time. Hunting mountain bandits was fun too. Thanks for your time!

The Final Kastoration - Calradic Campaign #21

Shocking news has spread across Calradia like wildfire... /u/Lord_Kastor is dead! The final slight being the recent renaming of lords within the kingdom to "Sasquatch", peasants have stormed the capital and brutally murdered him in his own home. As Kastor had left no heir, his most senior military generals had come to the conclusion that /u/Netherrocker will serve as commander of the army, thus handing him the kingdom in all but name. "Regent" Nether has vowed that he will not relinquish power until all enemies of the state are destroyed, and peace restored. This has ignited the powder keg known as Rhodokia, as Kastor's reign of terror was the only thing keeping the realm stable. Crime runs rampant, rationing comes into strict effect, and many lords begin forming their own decentralized warbands; A stark contrast to the large standing army the late Kastor had put in place. /u/KingHarlausOfficial has capitalized on the chaos, and already has an incredibly...

Combat Tips?

Hello to everybody except the Rhodoks, I hope you're all having a good day. To be direct, I REALLY suck at mouse blocking, it's awkward and annoying to control a lot especially when it keeps throwing my camera all over the place, but at the same time I see a lot of the community showing clips of them deflecting blows like friggin Jedi. I hear people say "just practice it more" but I would like to know if there's any technique I should be using, if I should be playing in 1st or 3rd person, etc. Submitted September 23, 2017 at 10:29AM by ChessedGamon http://ift.tt/2xnjBTp

ACOK vs AWOIAF

I downloaded ACOK ages ago, on version 1.5, and have just learned of the existence of an alternate GoT mod for Warband. I was planning on just updating to version 4, but now I've seen there's an alternative I wanted to see what other players thought of the two options- which mod is better, what are the strengths of each? Thanks in advance Submitted September 23, 2017 at 06:33AM by ultinateplayer http://ift.tt/2jSwH5z

Do you ever stand back and just issue orders once you have a large army? Long time player needs help

I've put in 145 hours into mount and blade so far and I still keep it on low dificulty and do all charge to all my troops...am I doing it wrong? is there a point that you should just stand behind your massive army and let them crush your enemies?

Any mods which do pikemen right?

It's pretty easy to just curbstomp everything in vanilla (outside of sieges) by just ordering your army of Swadian Knights to launch a frontal charge. Using combined arms tactics and formations has been fun and often helped me win when my armies have been infantry-heavy, but cavalry still absolutely dominates the battlefield. Even in some mods (PoP) it's just simpler to charge in with the heavy cav and let the infantry pick up the pieces later. Are there any mods which make the game more spear/pike focused? I don't know whether the game engine can do it properly; pikemen were only really good in tight formations of large bodies of soldiers IRL and Mount and Blade seems more focused on single warriors going for hand-to-hand combat.

Checklist for starting your own empire?

I'm in the last phase of winning fighting for the Rhodoks as a woman. As soon as I'm done with that I'm going to try and do a PT where I do the same but start my own faction. What are the basic things needed to even start? I'm personally thinking 100+ army, high persuasion, at least 20+ relationship with counts and such to get them to join my cause.

Nova aetas questions, does anyone have experience with this mod?

Hey butterlords I am currently playing and loving Nova Aetas, its a great mod. However, i have a few questions: 1: how do i get my cannon to shoot more accurately? I have a veteran cannoneer but he misses all the time. He has killed 1 troop so far. Seriously disappointing. 2: can i get my own faction to use Zendar troops? I like those troops but i couldnt get the option when i chose my title (Archduke for example). Would love to be able to recruit more of zendar recruits. ATM there are 4 villages with them... 3: how do i buy enterprises? Doesnt work for me. 4: apprenticeship. I go to the smithy and he says "ready for work?" I repsond "yes" and then nothing else happens. I have done this 10 times and nothing ever happens. When do i get to craft some shit? I would appreciate any answers.

I teach high school world history.

Did Taleworlds ever say if Bannerlord is coming to console I can't find anything explaining it

I can't afford an expensive PC and I absolutely love everything about Mount and Blade. I used to play the old Total Wars and was addicted to that series, and I always asked myself "imagine if you there was a game where you could fight in those battles with your troops." When Warband came to console I didn't even care how dated it was, I went on about a month and a half binge. I'm really hoping they bring it to consoles, but at the same time not limit the game because of it. I know that would suck for you PC players out there. I wouldn't even care if they took features out for the console version, just so I could play this brilliant games sequel. Submitted September 22, 2017 at 04:36PM by NickMac96 http://ift.tt/2wGhtqt

Amount of forces to take over a town and town keeping.

I want to take over a second town for my Feast Kingdom. Curaw was the starting point, now I want to take over the closest city of Rivacheg. My allies are pretty weak with only 2 reaching above 100 soldiers. My policy was more trained soldiers vs more soldiers. Plus my Vassals are fucking bullies, that get angry when i save them from a 100 man army. So Rivacheg has 359 soldiers in it. Am I able to take it over with 117 soldiers of my own. Composition of my army is about 45 crossbowman and rest nord infantry with 35 huscarls. I am also able to draft more reinforcements from curaw. My usual strategy for taking over towns was just make everyone hold position and put archers in the back. And when they shoot all their arrows retreat and try again. And a second question. Should I keep the town for myself? I know it may drop relations with the lords even more, but having another town with 1.5k taxes and 3-9k in tariffs would be nice for the warchest. Right now I have over 200k in my treas...

What do I do now?

I'm decently far into native. I have about 85 elite troops in my army and I am insanely rich and have silk businesses in a number of cities. I'm a vassal for the Nords and I am just stomping on other lords in battles. The only reason why I'm still with the Nords and not building my own kingdom is because I need more right to rule (I'm at about 30), and I need more troops. But even with max leadership, how the hell do I get armies to the size of kings? Also, how do I get more right to rule other than sending companions off? Any guidance would be appreciated Submitted September 22, 2017 at 02:06PM by vijayterian123 http://ift.tt/2jSsSgG

Starting a mercenary warband based on the "Black Dog Knights" from Berserk. Does playing an Evil character on PoP have any long term consequences?

It's a violent mercenary group from the manga Berserk lead by a demon called Wyald. All they do is raid and rape and leave chaos wherever they go.

Relations with lords

I created my own kingdom and have gotten about 9 lords. My kingdom consists of 2 castles and a town. I am still making money even in the middle of war time with curaw's high tariffs. I believe I have too many lords. With a few I have really positive +35 relation. And one lord with -25. I had two lords with -30 and I kicked them out. One for telling me to stop visiting HIS woman. So I am like gtfo. The other for reaching too high level of negative relation, and basically telling me not to save him in battle, cuz I was kill stealing. Right now I am trying to marry one of the daughters. This will improve relations with 4 lords. Father, son and some random idiots. But what do I have to do about people with really negative relation? How can I raise it, other than grant fiefs? Kicking them out will cause a huge relation drop for others. And I am totally not sure what to do. Also who do I give a castle in this case, one lord is favorable/welcoming for me. And one lord is resentful. Do...

[ACOK] Just had the worst luck ever

Playing ACOK, I'm a new vassal of the reach, married a guy with a castle, easy access to 3 enemy village that is quite isolated. All of them belonged to Tywin Lannister, and I raided all 3 of them. As I was done looting the third village and selling the loot, I'm trying to return to my fief, intending to do some quest and raise it's prosperity. Tywin attacked me while I was fast travelling, and he had 285 troops to my 80 troops. While Tywin clearly outnumbered me, my troops are much more experienced (I spent my early game rescuing elite prisoners from bandits). As I was preparing for the worst, I commanded my infantry to form a shieldwall. To my surprise, it actually does a decent job killing 40 of his cavalry units. With his cavalry gone, I told all my elite infantry units to charge, and they did a decent job cleaning up the remnants of the Lannister army. There's a lot of casualties, of course, but thanks to my companions' surgery skill most of them survived. As...

There's nothing worse than failing so completely and utterly as this

SO! Long story short, I'd managed to build up a small kingdom in eastern Calradia, taking up a few swadian castles, nothing really out of the ordinary here, I decide that, as Swadia is very small, only having two towns left, I decide to take one, I also decide that 'hey so if you have lots of guns thats good right' so, I replace my veteran footmen and infantry, almost all of which at this point are standardised with good helmets, armour, swords and shields, with massed recruits which only have chainmail, a billhook, a gun, and 15 rounds of ammunition. That was my first mistake. My second mistake was not removing the knights from my army, I end up getting intercepted by the king's army at this point, just outside, but we're about equal in numbers, and I have more guns, so it'll be a piece of cake, right? Wrong. When the battle commences, I have my knights form up infront of my recruits, I have the recruits form one large prickly mass of guns and billhooks (Just...
