I've only been playing a week so im by no means an expert, but after multiple restarts I feel I should share what i've learned as a new player
1: Research mods before you play. Not everyones cup of tea, but there are a lot of quality of life mods that feel like a natural part of the game. Don't drastically overhaul your game your first play through, but maybe look into smaller stuff.
2: Don't go for large armies of max tier troops too soon. You simply dont have the daily income to support that and if you spend all your gold paying troops just to lose them in one bad fight, youve essentially wasted gold that could be invested in trade/gear/companions
3: COMPANIONS! They are even more mandatory than warband imo, adding companions with "in formation" bonuses can drastically improve your soldiers efficiency, look around for different ones and find a group with skills you need
4: Don't immediately join a kingdom. May seem tempting to jump straight into fiefs and wars and such but it's a better payoff to be patient. Join as a mercenary, make some relationships with lords then leave. Bounce around between kingdoms and get involved in wars, find which kingdoms have policies you like or clans you can get easy relationships with. It's so much better to join a kingdom you already have friends in due to the voting system in bannerlord. With no support, you wont get many fiefs and your ideal policies wont get passed. Not to mention being amerc for awhile before joining will start you off with influence.
5: If you plan on being a "fighter" type and not a "sit inthe back and watch from a horse" type build, make sure to have smaller armies of better troops early on. You will level much faster getting in on the action and scoring killing blows, which is hard to do if your 67 imperial recruits are also going for your kills.
