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...
So the soon release of Bannerlord has inspired me to finally actually try World Conquest in Warband, and I'm wondering how strong I should make my character before I start? By strong I mean not just physically, but how much income and money should I have? How large an army should I be able to field? How much (if any?) right to rule should I need, and most importantly, where should I start?
As of now, I have productive enterprise in about 2/3 of all the cities on the map, a treasury of about 10K, I can field an army of about 100, and I have a measly 12 right to rule. To help me get around I have allies with 7 in pathfinding and spotting, I have Jeremus with 7 in all healing skills, and another ally with 6 in engineering.
I'm not trying to brag at all, because honestly all these things seem really low to me. I've love to have maybe 10 in pathfinding, and the ability to raise an army as large as Harlaus, but I don't know how long I need to grind in order to get there.
My plan for starting would be to take Wercheg from the Nords, since it's on a peninsula and seems easily defendable. Then work to take the rest of the northern Nord lands from there, but I'm open to anyone's suggestions about better places
The final thing I'm worried about is that last time I tried this, I found the people who I handed fiefs to bailed and joined other factions with depressing regularity. I read in a thread here that your lords opinion drops when you hand someone else a fief, and that you actually need to conquer somewhat slowly so that this malus has time to drop and you can hand fiefs at a constant rate without having too many defections. So finally does anyone have any suggestions about how once I have my empire up and running, what sort of rate of conquest I should have, and how fast I should be handing out fiefs to prevent defections?
