Buying the world

I started with the Aserai as a vassal and was given a good chunk of the Southern Empire as feifs being an empire culture character. I guess I got lucky but the Aserai decided to only fight the western empire for years and I took the time to get my trade up to the max to buy settlements which was a major pain. I was able to manipulate votes to go back to war with the south and took a few more towns and castles which were thankfully all voted to me somehow. By then I was making $30k+ a turn with a few million in the bank I left the Aserai and paid the $1 million for peace. Thanks to the Khuzait and Aserai for taking a few of the north, south, and some of the western empires fiefs, I’ve been able to buy up towns and castles for cheap. At this point I can just wait in town for income and keep buying them up until I can buy the whole world. I know this strategy has been around for a while but I haven’t tried it yet but it’s been pretty fun. submitted by /u/PassOnInTheWin...

PoP - money/economy trouble

I am in my first full playthrough in Pendor and I have a crippling problem: I am broke, poor, and on the verge of losing troops due to lack of money. It is day 970 or so.

To get this out of the way: Yes, I have enterprises in every town.

I currently own Laria and a nearby castle, and aside from Lord Roland who has a village I own all of the villages. I have about 500 troops in Laria, 350 in the castle, and I have around 490 troops in my army. I bleed about 15k per week.

During peace, I have been running around doing tournaments, or taking down spawns (for the gold bars and prisoners, I always choose QG over diamonds). I got to the point where I almost gave away my land to my vassal to stay afloat.

I am now in a war where I am turning a profit by capturing lords and ransoming them back, however it means I can no longer pump honour (only 200 at present). And the only reason I will make my pay day this week is because I just ransomed Ulric for 28k.

My questions:

  • Is this normal or have I gone amiss somewhere?

  • Should I bite the bullet and occasionally take diamonds to sell for the 100k?

  • While I started with about 750k before capturing my castle, I burned through 200k hiring a mercenary for a while until I could get to a peace, and then after a later war I focused on training a ton to fill Laria which drained my resources. Should I be avoiding peace times?

Another unrelated question, lords just won't join me. How the hell do I get decent lords to join me?

Thank you for reading, any suggestions appreciated!

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.
