What should I do here?

I’m a vasal with the Khuzaits and I feel like the AI is not doing me any favors. We were at war with Sturgia and the Aserai at the same time which was a nightmare because everyone was running north and south. Not at war with Sturgia anymore but as soon as we made peace with them Monchug went and declared war with the western empire. I have 15 fiefs and they all border the western empire. So while every place I own is getting attacked Monchug and all the other assholes have been fighting over Shibal Zumr Castle. One side takes it and back and forth so most of the army is over there. And I’m in the same situation over at Onica castle. I own it but they take it and then I take it back. No one is getting anywhere. I want to go on the offensive and take Zeonica but I just don’t have enough people and I don’t think I can get anymore. Any tips for this stalemate? And where do all their troops keep coming from? They keep coming with 1100 troop armies and I keep destroying them, shouldn’t the...

ZODIAC MF on Mount and Blade Warband

Hey guys, I was going through some of twitter personality Zodiac Motherfucker's yearly Top 10 games lists and saw his 2017 one had Warband on it. I thought you guys might enjoy his review. Link is here but I'll paste it here:

THIS IS SOME OLDASS RPG THAT ARRIVED ON XBOX LAST YEAR. IT COST ME $2.50 AND WHEN I FIRED IT UP I WONDERED WHERE THE FUCK ALL THAT MONEY WENT BECAUSE THIS GAME LOOKS LIKE DOG'S ASS. DOG'S. ASS. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. THERE'S A SCHOOL OF THOUGHT THAT SAYS GRAPHICS DON'T MATTER. THAT SCHOOL OF THOUGHT IS FOR DUMBASSES BECAUSE THE GRAPHICS HERE ARE JUNK IN THE BALLS SENSE OF THE WORD, AND IT'S A TRAVESTY THAT NO ENTERPRISING ASSHOLES STEPPED UP TO ADDRESS THAT UNFORTUNATE FACT BEFORE THE DAMNED THING GOT PORTED. THERE AIN'T ANYTHING COOL ABOUT PLAYING A GAME IN 2017 WITH CHARACTERS THAT LOOK LIKE THEY GOT BEAMED IN FROM HALF-LIFE. IT JUST DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY.

I'M GLAD I STUCK IT OUT THOUGH BECAUSE WHEN MY ACHING EYES GOT USED TO THE PRE-9/11 GRAPHICS I REALIZED THAT THIS WASN'T AN OPEN WORLD RPG SO MUCH AS A GAME ABOUT ASSEMBLING A LOW-RENT POSSE OF HOODS AND CUTTHROATS AND TERRORIZING A PHONY MEDIEVAL LANDSCAPE LIKE THE MOTHERFUCKING MOUNTAIN THAT RIDES. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? THAT APPEALS TO ME. STEAL CATTLE. DEMAND TRIBUTE. SLAUGHTER FARMERS. SLAUGHTER FARMERS WIVES. BUTCHER GARRISONS. BURN THE DAMNED VILLAGE DOWN. ARE YOU AT PEACE? START A WAR. ARE YOU AT WAR? START ANOTHER FUCKING WAR. SEE A CASTLE YOU WANT? MURDER EVERYONE INSIDE AND TAKE IT. SEE AN ARMY YOU OUTNUMBER 5 TO 1? FUCK EM ALL. TAKE PRISONERS AND SELL THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS INTO SLAVERY. THE WHOLE GAME IS ABOUT TRAVELING THE COUNTRYSIDE AND MAKING A HOMICIDAL NUISANCE OF YOURSELF AND THAT FRIENDS IS PRETTY MUCH ALL I ASK FOR OUT OF VIDEO GAMES. WELL THAT AND SOME GRAPHICS THAT DON'T MAKE ME WANNA CARVE MY FUCKING EYES OUT OF MY SKULL. I MEAN COME THE FUCK ON.

I hear ya, Zodiac. I too am looking for a Mount and Blade game without pre-9/11 graphics :(

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 . For a deep read on the subject see the wiki https://pop3.fandom.com/wiki/Character_Creation Or for a quick "Just...

TaleWorlds Forums

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.
