Those don't look like "Plains" to me.

So, I end up loading into a fight after reading the Auto Resolve where it says that the battle location takes place in the "Plains" as well as looking visually at where im located on the map with not a single tree in sight around me, and then i get a marsh surrounded by trees. Begs another question, if I would have auto resolved, would it have auto'd on that map I loaded into or would it have auto'd with a Plains modifier to cavalry/horse archer troops? submitted by /u/tjburke93123 [link] [comments]

Perisno - Race change?

Hey all, ​ I started playing Perisno and I choose an elf. I decided to stick to trade for the game. Not having read any guides I see Venetor a lot. From my understanding its a city that gets founded once you complete the Third Legion Outpost quest. Which is for humans only.... SO is it possible to change race to human to complete this? Everytime I run local prices I get Venetor for EVERYTHING and its just killing my experience. I'd rather not restart as a human but at this point it seems I might have to? ​ ​ Also side note, anyone try to make a leafbomb build? Trying to get the understanding of them. They go from delivering 0 dmg to tons of dmg in a group. Or they don't even show numbers(I assume because they hit so many targets) Submitted October 31, 2018 at 05:14PM by MaciousOrnande https://ift.tt/2ERlpZN

What mod has the best quests and lore?

I feel like most mods keep the same basic quests that are in native. Are there any that have actual questing or storylines? I want to feel like an adventuring knight rather than just a mercenary doing odd jobs. Submitted October 31, 2018 at 03:16PM by CaptainPick1e https://ift.tt/2OimnOu

Question for modders: Can a mesh associated with a town be swapped during gameplay?

Actually I have a few other questions someone might have some input for. But the title question is the primary one which someone might have suggestion I havn't thought of. You're welcome to comment on any element you wish. Objective I have a rough outline for a new module called Peasant Uprising where you start out as a farmer. Not going to give spoilers on the off chance this module ever sees the light of day. Really tired of the nobility track. It wouldn't effect the ability to go through the standard nobility track, but would be generally incompatible with the nobility track. The concept is to have a new center type, i.e., refugee camps. With a progression track required to take control. Probably not visible at the start of the game. But I also want to be able to upgrade these camps into villages, towns, and cities. Even castles that can be upgraded to cities. The problem is the game internally treats these as distinctly different object (troop) types. But in module...

How to rebuild a large army after defeat?

Title pretty much sums it up. How do i recoup my losses after I lose a battle? When i'm starting out, it's not that hard to rebuild my armies, but once i hit the points where I'm fielding 100+ man armies it seems to take forever. Is there some process i'm missing? I just run around to all the villages that like me and recruit volunteers. It might be the fact that I'm playing a "purist" army so i'm limited to just the villages in my faction.

Any tips on how to indirectly undermine an ally kingdom?

Hello, i would like some tips on how to undermine a friendly kingdom without damaging my relations with them. To put into context (wall text): im a vassal of Kingdom of Rhodoks, and through the course of 3 months, the war with the Kingdom of Swadia raged on, while we attacked them from the south, the Nords attacked them from the north, the Swadians lost the majority of their territorry, only Praven and a couple castles remain. We took Uxkhal, while the Nords took Suno and Dhirim, in the following weeks a defensive pact was formed between out two kingdoms. But shortly after, the Nords declared a truce with the Swadians, and turned their eyes east to their war with the Vaegirs. The Vaegirs, who were already getting their asses kicked by the Khanate, lost Rivacheg, Curraw, Reyvadin and several castles to the Nords. (RIP Vaegirs, all they have now is 2 castles and 2 villages). As it stands now, the Kingdom of the Nords controls 8 different cities and almost 1/3 of Calradia. There is no ...

So I have been trying to play the Napoleonic wars module online but every server is running an older version of mount and blade.

New to the series - best place to start?

GOG have 60% off M&B titles right now, and the series is one that I don't know very much about, but I've heard about it a bit and sounds like something I might get really into. That said, where is the best place to start? Should I get the original game first or jump straight into Warband or one of the expansions? Should I start with the vanilla game, or look at modding from the get go? I'm the sort of person who likes games to be difficult and unforgiving. I enjoy struggling to survive with scarce resources. I adore the combat and mechanics of Dark Souls, the resource and equipment management of Jagged Alliance 2, and the role playing and exploration of Skyrim (but I would never consider playing it without mods again, as it's far too casual for me). The Witcher 3 had a great story, but it was too much of a lootfest and the combat mechanics got a bit stale for me before getting half way through the game. Is this series for me?

Possible solution to Perisno extreme difficulty.

I moved all of the difficulty sliders to both sides in the options, and restarted the game. It seemed to have fixed my problem with extreme difficulty. If Persino is extreamly hard for you like it was for me. It might be worth a shot. The game is so much more enjoyable now. I think the game might have got "stuck" thinking I was playing on hardmode, or on a hard difficulty. Submitted October 29, 2018 at 07:54AM by aetheradept https://ift.tt/2CNlRFP

PoP - Honor too hard to grind & prestige problem

I feel like honor is extremely hard to grind - especially when you need it for upgrade discounts for CKO or KO troops I havent quite gotten there but i understand that prestige doesnt regenerate but units die - sometimes even getting renown and thus prestige is hard since i no longer 1v30 Is there any way to put the companions in a Garrison or Something like that and just grind 1v30? To get renown? And is there a way to get honor faster? The only reliable way i know is beating other lords and letting them free I dont even bother helping villages attaked by bandits since sometimes they burn it down and i lose renown...nothing more frustrating than spend time helping villages and then getting punished for it Thank you for any suggestions!

[POP] Sieges are bugged when defenders rally out and you lose

For more details - I've declared my own kingdom, and promptly got my only location taken. I'm trying to retake it, and defenders sally out to meet me. Fight the good fight, but I can't retreat - if I'm knocked out, or in a corner of the map, it says that I can't retreat, there are enemies too close by. Fight goes on, I lose - it doesn't cut to the defeat screen, just constantly shows the other army cheering. If I try to tab out, it repeats the "Can't retreat when in a fight" message. Basically, if I try to fight and lose, I have to reset MnB to be able to play again. Submitted October 28, 2018 at 10:52PM by Selkie_Love https://ift.tt/2SrVEly

Vassal relationships

Hello there fellow calradians, I have been struggling a bit with vassal relationships so I have a few questions, but first, a little background(for flavor mostly): using the Diplomacy mod having my own kingdom (obviously), with 6 towns and many castles (though only 1 town and castle is controlled by me) having enterprises in each city so money is not a problem have about 19 lords (1/2 with - relationships), largest number of all factions so military is not a problem have about 3000 recruits in my town and castle so nobody dates to touch it the day is ~ 700, I play with normal difficulty/damage and do not use horses nor give my troops animal products (unless no food is available, sort of a vegan challenge :)) - they probably hate me :)) ) I have honor above 200, renown above 1000 *Relationship with Good Natured lords is great, above 90 if not 100 straight. * Most of my relationships with upstanding lords is fine though is not through the roof, I actually have Submitted O...

A review of The Last Days of the Third Age.

My first play through of TLD has come to an end, while I wish I was victorious, I got far enough to see what I wanted and do plan to start again. First, I'd like to give a quick shout out to the youtuber SurrealBeliefs, as without his let's play series I would never have tried the mod. Having seen a run on the good side, I opted to do an evil campaign. In almost any mod I play, 90% of the time the main rival of my favorite faction ends up having some sort of cavalry focus. I've just kind of come to hate fighting cav factions, so I knew Rohan needed to die early in. I ended up choosing to be a man of Dunland, a faction I ended up enjoying quite a bit. Their whole thing seems to be about anti-cav. Upgrading a unit to a max tier Wolf Guard provides a side wolf unit in battle that will run about knocking people off their mounts. How does a faction with no archers deal with horse archers? Have these wolves turn them into regular archers. Dunland however is weak to archer focu...

The Good, The Bad, and The Khergits - Calradic Campaign #34

King Cakus is dead. His democracy has survived, however, with the ascension of /u/Perjunkie to president. Though the election has had it's fair share of internal conflicts, the country has managed to just barely escape a civil war. His first test as a ruler will come as a familiar one for veterans of the republic. Long ago the Rhodoks managed to wrestle control of Unuzdaq Castle from the Khergit Khanate, though the castle was wrecked in the process. Ever since the territory has been a near lawless land, a frontier of Rhodok settlers struggling to survive, without support from the goverment since the Vaegirs cut them off at Grunwalder. Help has finally come, though at a cost. The Khergits have been harassing the Frontiersman there for months, launching constant skirmishes with the militias that guard the settlement. /u/Zippolini challenges the Rhodok's right to the land, citing their extreme measures taken in pacifying the remaining tribesman after the battle.

[Perisno] Strategy discussion

I've been experimenting around with the first hundred days of Perisno and wanted to start a discussion on strategy. This mod has a difficult learning curve for the new player and a lot of the decision making early on has increasing impact later on. Character creation Notably, by picking the Bandit/Stealing/Thief background options you can create a starting Looting 10 player character. This is pretty powerful but it leaves your character deficient in charisma, and renders some of the companions who are designed to cover it useless. I think it comes down to an understanding of which skills are useful and which ones aren't. Persuasion - there are very strict, obscure rules for prisoner recruitment and rescue (they're different). Outlined here: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,374955.msg8937963.html#msg8937963 , it's basically worthless.

Why won't my allies join the fight to take castles?

My relations with the lords aren't in the negative and in fact a few are devoted to me. I've tried letting them go home and come back, I go at the castles from different angles. Nothing.

Mid-Late game TLD help

Hey guys, I've hit a bit of a wall in my TLD game. I've been playing as the Dunlanders and having a blast. Rohan is extinct and the war moved to Gondor. Gondor has lost EVERYTHING, on Dol Amroth remains, their faction strength reached -280 before I ran out of things to fight. No one is sieging Dol Amroth. Isenguard and Morder are at 8000 strength, they're doing nothing. Umbar and Harad are average, Dunlanders are quite strong, no one it making a move. Dol Amroth had 0 parties going around, every lord is just sitting inside with about 20 men. I thought perhaps that could possible be 'the last' battle of the war, but then wouldn't everyone have made advance camps up in the North? I've left for the North for about 3 hours. Weakend Beornings, Dale and Erobor and keep heading back south to check on things. Gondor eventually regained strength and had some parties going around, took them out, tanked their score again.

[Perisno] Most loved/hated tournament cities?

I started playing Perisno again last night, and one of the first things I attempted was a tournament. I'm used to tournaments being clumsy affairs - either a mish-mash of weapon kits or a bland steamroller - but Perisno seems to handle them quite well. There are some cities I will NOT run tournaments in without a specific build (Forniron, I'm looking at you!), but for the most part, they're balanced and well-themed. What's your favorite and least favorite tourney in Perisno, and why? Do you hit all of them up, or run specific ones and avoid others?

Perisno and sneaking into cities

okay seriously, what the fuck??? Is it just me or is it like super impossible to fight off the guards once youre detected without high athletics to kite them forever. The weapons you are given are so trash, im 30 str, 10 power strike and these things are only doing 12-16 damage to each guard and this is with like 250 prof in 2 handed and 300 prof in polearm (im not sure which one the scythe uses). Is there a way to change the equipment we bring in because this is insane even with high stats. I 99.9% of the time ride my horse so i dont see the point in investing in athletics just for this and i normally wear the elven shoes with +2 athletics just in case anyway. Also you always get spawned in between a bunch of them which makes it even harder, like im trying to sneak into Qatetaqa and i get spawned literally in the middle of 3 of them and the one direction i can kite in has two guards already in it, like tf???

[Diplomacy] For those who role play this game, give me ideas for interesting role playing run.

I had a game like Nord lord and we first wipe out Vaegirs, after that I used Huscarls and Vaegir Knights and Marksmen to conquer Caladria in my name, I was Harald Hardrada famous viking warior from RL. Currently I am playing with Khergits, as Ogedei Noyan son of Temudjin (Genghis Khan). I wiped out Sarranids, and made my Temudjin Khanate there. In my army I have Khergit Veteran Archers, Sarranid Mamluke, Sarranid Master Archers, Sarranid Guards and Khergit Lancers. I will conquer filthy european kingdoms : Nords, Rhodoks and Swadians. I want to capture title Khan of Khans by defeating Sanjar Khan. I want to be only descendant of our father Genghis Khan. I will not use any other troop from other culture. One of my ideas is being Khergit and use only archers, no Lancers at all. And train all companions to use bows. I think that would be interesting run. I generally use troops just from faction I belong to for more immersion. Submitted October 24, 2018 at 07:42AM by kirdan84 https...

Who would win: Napoleonic Wars DLC army against King Harlaus' medieval army?

Let's assume the battle is taking place on a large, relatively flat plain in-game. Both sides have a clear view of each other and no useful amount of cover. ​ Both armies are led by real people for commanders (Not allowed to participate in fighting) but bots for the rest. Both teams have equal numbers of 300 in their armies. Swadia has 90 cavalry (30 Knights and 60 Men at Arms), 120 ranged (40 Sharpshooters and 80 Crossbowmen), and 90 infantry (30 Footmen, 30 Infantry and 30 Sergeants). ​ The Napoleonic Army (I'll pick Austria since they have the best variety of troop types) has 90 cavalry (30 Cuirassiers, 30 Lancers and 30 Dragoons) and 210 infantry (70 Riflemen, 70 Line Infantry and 70 Grenadiers) plus 2 standard cannons and a gunner for each. ​ Since I can't play this out in Warband, who do you think would win? What tactics should each side use to better ensure their victory? (Also just for the record, this isn't supposed to be about real life combat, just in...

Help managing my kingdom

So I have a pretty successful kingdom going rn, I control the entire north and a few capitals here and there while being at war with the nords and rodoks. My question is how do y’all manage a kingdom? Right now it’s a shit ton of micromanaging to the point of me not attempting anymore. Everyday my people hate me more. I have a few -50+ in my kingdom. I’m constantly getting attacked, I can’t really siege because I get stomped if it’s over 150 troops (everything rn). Plus my vassals don’t do anything to help the kingdom. I’m kinda stuck rn What are my options? Should I just remove everyone that hates me? Thus risking my entire kingdom falling? Submitted October 24, 2018 at 01:16AM by HazardG0 https://ift.tt/2O21Hdd

Do you know what all these total conversion mods could really use?

Perisno, PoP, the lot of them, they've got all these great features like diplomacy and freelancer, but one feature they could all really use is the ability to improve the quality of weapons and armor via the vendors as shown in Viking Conquest. Seriously, what I'd give for the ability to take a rusty piece of plate armor and have an armorer improve it to lordly, reinforced, thick or even normal quality in these total conversion mods like you can in VC.

Which companion(s) are your character's closest friends?

Throughout your time in Calradia, which of the many possible companions have taken good care of/trusted most? If you roleplay your game, which of them would your character go to when in need of counsel or something? For me, it's Borcha. He was the first person I employed, he's never tried to leave, he's a very loyal man with the right morality to put up with the occasional village raid but no more, he is a very capable soldier, and I have equipped him with the top of the line heraldic armor and a full helm as well as a good steed. If King Jacob Arrano (Basque word for Eagle) of the Aquila Kingdom didn't need him to be his general, he would've made him his minister rather than Queen Enricata. I also quite like Matheld, Jeremus, and Firentis. I frequently send Matheld to King Ragnar bearing gifts/goodwill, and Firentis is an excellent leader of men given enough time is put into his skills. Brownie points go to Nizar, such a flatterer.. "Oh, valorous one....

I've had this game for years, I just picked it back up after only playing custom battles years ago when I got it.

Normal "I love the depth of this" praise of singleplayer BUT: FUCK King Ragnar I did his dirty work and he never gave me land. Too bad the rest of Calradia heard of my conquering battles over the Vaegirs and Sultan Hakim just gave me a fief because of the GLORIOUS SNOWY ASS I KICK. Watch your ASS KING RAGNAR because I will be the first to FUCK IT. Sorry, I'm having too much of a good time in this game. Seriously how did I not know this was here and my dumb fuck high school ass just played custom battles like "ooh this is cool" and never bothered to fuck up lords. RIP my social life.

I think a farmer escaped Calradia.

I was at a farmer's market earlier today, lots of them are gearing up.to harvest crops and such and I shit you not I heard one guy say to a person at his stall: IT'S ALMOST HARVESTING SEASON and I spat out my cider. Then it dawned on me that it really IS almost harvesting season! I am not kidding. Submitted October 22, 2018 at 02:26PM by FlyingEagle57 https://ift.tt/2q5mgvO

Review of The Last Days (of the Third Age)

The Last Days of The Third Age is, if not obvious enough by title alone, a modification of M&B and Warband in the setting of the heartland of the Middle Earth, during the war that will se the end of the Third Age and beginning of the Fourth. In this mod, you can play either side. For the Dawn of a New Age (Good), as a man of Gondor ('s various fiefs), Rohan, Vale, Dale or Dunedain (under Imladris); an elf of Mirkwood, Lothlorien or Imladris; or a dwarf of Erebor or Iron Hills (under the banner of Erebor). Said forces will work together until the annihilation of the evil invaders, at which point the game will end. The Twilight of Man (Evil), though, has two major sides in it, lead by either Sauron or Saruman. These will contend for supremacy over Arda after the free peoples have been subjugated, but will work together until it happens. Under Sauron you can play as an orc of either Mordor or Dol Gudur; an uruk of Mordor; or an evil man of Rhun, Khand, Harad (and Far Harad), an...

Floris/Diplomacy - home faction (Rhodoks) growing too powerful...

Like most of us here, I’ve been planning on setting up my own faction. Thing is, I joined up with the Rhodoks early game, but at day 450, the Rhodoks have gotten rid of the Swadians and Sarranids. The Nords look like they’re going to go soon too! I’m worried that by the time I make my faction, the Rhodoks will roflstomp me real quick. Any way to deal with this?

Why are horse units so insanely disobedient?

I can sit there spamming "EVERYONE HOLD THIS POSITION" 30 fucking times and these fuckers don't fucking listen until they're already half way across the battlefield and have drawn aggro onto my squishies that I'm trying to train. Like literally 30 instances of "everyone hold this position!" in the sidebar and they're still hoofing it, literally and figuratively, into the deathball of 40 sea raiders that I'm very studiously trying to round up and get to waste their ammo Submitted October 22, 2018 at 01:43AM by Perkinz https://ift.tt/2OGXv7O

After years playing Mount & Blade series, only now I realise its depth.

I found out about the Mount & Blade series when looking for a game that would run on my low-spec computer, that must've been around early 2014 or 2015. I was fascinated by it as soon as I got playing, large scale battles and a fine tuned gameplay, politics.... Trades... It had everything, as an RPG and Tibia player I was never attracted to graphics, to me they must only complement a well told story with decent mechanics, much like a book that has no imagery, so Mount & Blade suited me like a well-fit glove. Soon enough, as a modding enthusiast I was downloading every mod avaiable that I could find, eagerly testing them out one by one, seeing all the diferent new mechanics introduced by the community, and making some of my own, it certainly was a good time. As time passed I begun to feel bored with it, as I usually do with other things, but I always felt that there were more to it than I could imagine, but eventually I dropped it and later uninstalled it. Come last year...

TIL sending your companion to gather info is actually useful

Never seen anyone mentioned this, but the info your companion gather is solid, you get to see if the kingdom is united or falling apart, which lords are ripe for converting, how he feels about his liege. Here are example: Kingdom of Nords . King Ragna . Swadia . King Harlaus . Rhodok . King Graveth . Knowing this, I chose to rebel early from Wercherg, against the Nord (Vaegir was also weak) and avoid Rhodok. When Rhodok declared war, I hunted down his most trusted lords and made their life miserable: Matheas, Reland, Tarchias, ignore the rest. This is what happened after about 3 months: Rhodok divided , 3 vassals defected to Nords. My Kingdom. We were at war with all of them but they couldn't do much. Their lords were too weak, too poor and often ignore the marshal. I think by the end Ragna had a lot of land but hog them all and didn't even name a marshal.

Need help modding a faction

Soooo I've been thinking of creating a Dhirim faction with it's own troop tree and lords included which is going to be "allied" to Swadia from the start of the game. ​ The plan is to have an independant "Principality of Dhirim" which controls all of its surroundign castles. https://i.redd.it/nadirz5tajt11.jpg I managed to create an effective ballanced troop tree which is inspired by Byzantine troops. It's split mainly between Spear and Sword&Bow Infantry branches as well as a Cavalry branch. ​ https://i.redd.it/kfoj3zx7cjt11.jpg https://i.redd.it/51w9sh3acjt11.jpg The only problem I run into is the fact that I still cant mod for shit and, by extension, have absolutly no clue on how to acutally add a new faction. I wanted to know if anyone would be willing to help me make it (if not do that part for me). In any case thank you regardless. Submitted October 21, 2018 at 08:52AM by Picoman1 https://ift.tt/2PbWrIz

Wondering which is better

So long story short I somehow gained Laria as my city while being under sarleon's banner. Much to my surprise I found a masterwork hawkstorm bow in the chest with a required power draw of 10. Currently using the emerald rune bow and was wondering if it would be worth getting to power draw 10 and using the hawkstorm or keep with emerald? TL;DR gained laria with power draw 10 masterwork bow, is that better than emerald rune bow in damage? Submitted October 21, 2018 at 01:55AM by Ac1dshadow https://ift.tt/2PLEtcW

Nova Aetus would be my favorite mod if it was better polished

But as it is now it's honestly one of my least favorite. It suffers from massive feature bloat and it feels like the author just jumped from feature to feature without polishing anything. By far the worst thing about this mod and the thing that really ruined the ENTIRE experience for me was the perk system. There are only a handful of perks in the game that are influenced by your actions and the rest can just be gained randomly. The negative perks all give HUGE penalties especially my least favorite of them all, incompetent administrator. This fucking perk is one of the few that isn't random but you're guaranteed to get it every playthrough if you plan on conquering a city that isn't your religion and it comes with huge penalities that guarantees you're not gonna see any population gains until at least a year after you conquer the city if you're lucky. Then there are perks like fat or senile which you just get randomly throughout your playthrough. You can be a ...

Just got this game, I have to say I'm absolutely loving it.

I don't really know the point of this post is other than to praise this game. It's such a simple concept yet it's kept me hooked since I first bought it yesterday. I'm sitting at work right and all I wanna do is go home and play it. You know it's a good game when it's actively disrupting your life lol. I think this game further proves the notion that games dont require amazing and spectacular graphics to be good. I originally was turned off by this game due to the graphics, it looked to me like a poorly made asset flip. But then I kept hearing about it and seeing it online so I said fuck it I'll give it a shot. I haven't put it down and I'm very happy with my decision to play it. I keep hearing Bannerlord being dubbed "Mount and Wait" because of how long it's taking. Either way when/if it comes out I'm absolutely setting aside some money for it, if it's even half as good as Warband I know it'll be money well spent. Su...
