Everybody manages to "win" the game

I mean I play it mainly as Role play, so winning it is not my goal, but I definitely want to be successful. Usually, getting first city is pretty hard, because having less than 200 troops, building siege camp, fending off enemy lords roaming around my siege camp requires big heap of luck. Then expanding the kingdom without clans is hard, even with two or three it gets hard against fully established kingdoms. However, weekly I see many posts about finished game, great strategic win, destroying whole kingdoms singlehandedly.... I am by no means beginner, having 2K+ hours in Warband (partially napoleonic wars as regiment member, but still many hours in Floris, Pendor and so on), 700+ hours in Bannerlord. I use Diplomacy, RBM so it is harder, but still... submitted by /u/Top_Leopard_9528 [link] [comments]

Earning a banner by being knighted? [ACOK]

During one of my old playthroughs last year or the year before (I believe it was version 2.1, though possibly 3.0) I joined Stannis' retinue and served as a soldier for quite some time. I rose through the ranks until I was eventually promoted to knight (and later heavy knight). My character had started out lowborn, but after being knighted I was given the option to choose a banner! I thought that was a pretty cool touch.

I can't remember if I got it immediately, or if it was when I was on leave, or after I retired, or what, but I definitely got my banner this way. Anyway, on my current character (playing version 5.0), I tried to do the same again, but with Brynden "Blackfish" Tully as my commander. I made it to heavy knight before retiring, but this time I haven't been given the option to choose a banner.

My questions are:

  1. Anyone else ever earn a banner this way?

  2. Anyone know if it's a feature that's no longer offered?

  3. If I can't get it this way, anyone know if there's a way to get a banner without starting as a noble, swearing fealty, or starting a faction? I'm RPing as a hedge knight/tourney knight and I can't be tied down. I also don't want to just join a faction and immediately quit because it's a bit gamey and out of character (plus the relation loss). The debug menu doesn't seem to offer any way to choose a banner.

Sorry for the long post.

Prophecy of Pendor - Early Game Guide

I love PoP and think it's the best thing since Sliced Person, but the early game is bloody brutal, especially if you're used to kicking ass and taking names in M&B vanilla. So I wanted to write an early game guide to share my experience and hopefully help someone else get into the mod without as much agony as I (and many others) experienced. Character Creation - Questions When you start character creation, the game hits you with a bunch of background story questions. My advice is to answer these however you like, building the backstory for your character that interests you and helps get you into the story. However , these questions have serious impacts on the game, most critically whether you can create Knights of the Griffon chapters with just money, and something called the Rumor Interval which sounds irrelevant but is the most important thing ever .

Back when Bannerlord was announced, I vaguely remember that, in the announcement thread, people were discussing the choice of the title "Bannerlord." Does anyone else remember that? It was a useless topic to discuss, but I kept coming back because I was so hyped about the game and was hoping for more information about it.
