Everybody manages to "win" the game

I mean I play it mainly as Role play, so winning it is not my goal, but I definitely want to be successful. Usually, getting first city is pretty hard, because having less than 200 troops, building siege camp, fending off enemy lords roaming around my siege camp requires big heap of luck. Then expanding the kingdom without clans is hard, even with two or three it gets hard against fully established kingdoms. However, weekly I see many posts about finished game, great strategic win, destroying whole kingdoms singlehandedly.... I am by no means beginner, having 2K+ hours in Warband (partially napoleonic wars as regiment member, but still many hours in Floris, Pendor and so on), 700+ hours in Bannerlord. I use Diplomacy, RBM so it is harder, but still... submitted by /u/Top_Leopard_9528 [link] [comments]

SP Campaign Start as a not-horse archer

So I generally play as a horse archer in M&B titles. I had done a few Kusait runs with an army of horse archers and was kinda board of it so I tried today to play as something else. My first though was to try a x-bow non-mounted guy. However, I feel like the start as anything but a horse archer is practically impossible.

I play on all realistic difficulty damage.

The game does not allow you to reload as an x-bow player. This pretty much dis-allows the typical kite strategy I use against looters early in the game. The other option is to go with thrown weapons. Thrown weapons expose you more so to the rocks the looters have and have a max ammo count of 8 (javelins, 2 stacks). I found that thrown weapons are a 2 shot kill to looters so if I hit all shots I would only be able to kill 4 looters, probably 3. This seems way worse than a bow: 30 shots 3 shot kill, 10 potential kills.

Basically it seems that the game really wants you to play as a horse archer. Am I missing something?

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 . For a deep read on the subject see the wiki https://pop3.fandom.com/wiki/Character_Creation Or for a quick "Just...

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.
