Mid tier armor just looks cooler

This game is... draining me. (Rant)

I wanted to do an Ironman run of native Mount and Blade Warband as a sort of goodbye to this awesome game before Bannerlord. But... it seems like with every step I take forward, I take two steps back, and it’s killing me. All the flaws in this game are culminating into a splinter of frustration that keeps bothering me.

Ok, let me review. I recently fought and was captured by enemy forces. After eventually getting loose, I tried to go village-to-village, recruiting.

That’s when I hit a huge problem. Bandits. Not just are there like fucking 80 of them on screen at all times (seriously, Calradia has Skyrim’s bandit-to-villager ratio), and they are ALL SO FUCKING FAST. Even if I can outspeed the bigger groups, the smaller ones catch up to me, and apparently these DISORGANIZED BANDS OF LOOTERS are all on the same side (this is not how crime works in real life!).

Oh, “run away”, you might say? Well, there’s a different problem. Fucking morale. Every time you run away, all your troops develop severe Depression. Really? Lose 20 fucking morale because 1 unlucky sucker got left behind? Would you rather we all die and become slaves?

And then you have sanctimonious companions like Rolf who hate you for running, even though there really isn’t any better solution.

And then I LOSE SHIT by getting captured, while other lords don’t seem to lose anything. Stupid double standards.

And then there’s the factions. Don’t even get me started. It’s a lose-lose situation- either I get actually good fiefs that are taken from me the next minute by a siege party of fucking 400 people, or I get offered shitty village fiefs. Really, I just got given a castle, which was then taken before I even had the chance to raise enough troops to reliably defend it!

I want to revolt, but then I get fucked by my old faction. There’s no two ways about it- even with a King’s party size increase, I can’t just take and defend important points by myself.

I just... I can’t take it. I want to play Warband. I want to beat it. But this is all. Such. BULLSHIT. I haven’t been this devoid of hope and frustrated in a long while.

Optimal weapons in Smithing (Forging): a second, deeper (?), look - Blades/Heads + Guards/Banners and Accessories. Bit of a letdown

Hello everyone.It’s been one month since part 1 was released (This one https://www.reddit.com/r/Bannerlord/comments/12yqhq5/optimal_weapons_in_smithing_forging_a_first_look/ ).I’m here posting again to go forwards in the established direction from part 1.There will be a TL;DR section at the end. A little recap is in order: last time we crafted every single possible weapon in Bannerlord, but ignoring guards, pommels, grips, accessories (From now on, "Parts 2/3/4")... and only switched between different blades/heads ("Parts 1"), which I expected to determine the overall worth of the item much more than the other parts (This proved to be the case, according to today's data).Furthermore, there were no changes in size at all, so all components were crafted only in standard size. Again, I've updated the Google drive folder I've been using up until now. It contains a series of screenshots detailing the weapon's name (Which in turn is a combination of the...

Help with the Subreddit's new Guide! Guide is in the Description and Link in the Comments⬇️

So I got the go-ahead to write a guide for the Mods to post and pin on top of the sub and while my 3000+ hours of Bannerlord and wide experience with speedrunning this quest covers a lot, I am sure that I might have missed some neat tips and tricks. Please also tell if there if something that needs closer clarification with more text or an image. The Bannerlord's Guide to Unite the Empire Written by Octavian_Exumbra So you want to unite the Calradian Empire? Well, my child, this is no simple matter.

I'm just messing with you. It's actually a fairly simple process, so let's just dive right into it. New Campaign: Starting off, we're picking Empire culture.
