Beta Mod Release - Hold the Line: Infantry AI - No more moshpit

Hi all!! A few weeks ago I asked here how you wanted your infantry to fight ( old post ). The top answer by far was "make them hold the line", so that's what I built. It was called Better Infantry AI back then, now it's Hold the Line , and it's out as a beta. Available in Nexus Mods. What it does: No more moshpit: soldiers keep their place in the line and step in and back a little instead of turning into one big blob. AI formations that make contact switch to a charge, so both sides fight the same way. Shields in the front rank: shield and spear first, then other shields, then spears and pikes, then everyone else. Works in shield walls too. No more falxmen eating javelins and arrows in the front while the shield guys wait in the back. Rear ranks fight with spears: the second rank thrusts past the guy in front instead of hitting their back and getting stunned. AI spearmen also keep the spear out more instead of always pulling the sidearm. Deep format...

True Stories of Flustered Royalty - Quick Reflections

King Derthert: strolling through the latest addition to his "Towns Abroad" project.

Random Retainer: You're most correct as always Sire! This truly is the definition of filth!

Derthert: Now now. I said it might be a wee bit dirty. No need to be so demeaning to these poor people. Sturgians simply have never known a civilized life after all. To be expected. Indeed. In good time though. They will learn to see the wonders of proper civilization and thank us most handsomely in due time.

Random Retainer: OH! Yes! Apoooologies Sire! Woe is me to have misquoted such eloquent words!

Random Retainer: begins sifting through his satchel for a flogger to punish himself with

Derthert: Egads man! Enough with that! And don't you dare pull out that flogger again! You had that poor woman and her child in tears! I... swore they'd be frighted you'd turn on them. But they just kept screaming "What is even going on! WHAT IS EVEN GOING ON!?"... All seemed rather clear to me. But my dear fellow. You really shouldn't be so hard on yourself. All is well.

Random Retainer: eyes aglow with awe Milord! Such wonderous mercy exudes from your divine presence! I dare not look upon my Lord as I fear I shan't ever see the beauties of the world for being struck blind by such splendor! starts weeping

Derthert: ahem... right. Oh guard?

quick step shuffling of feet approach

Guard: Yes Milord.

Derthert: Ah, just who I needed. Um. I do believe I've had enough of this self worth coach for today. I completely forgot. I actually don't like him at all.

Random Retainer: I don't like me much either Sire! Not that my opinion lends the tiniest grain of sand in weight to the vast mountain of import as comes from thine brilliant brow!

Derthert: presses his lips together in guarded frustration

Derthert: Yes... Lovely.

Derthert: side eyes the guard with a flick of his brow Mmm? If you please.

Guard: grabs the retainer by the back of his shirt Alright Fancy Lips! Let's be off before you lose more than ye presence eh?

Derthert: Right... Now where was I?

off in the distance a town crier is calls out...

Town Crier: Andrasa of the northern Empire has been taken prisoner by the Looters!

Derthert: snickers...

Derthert: quickly see's the insensitivity to his amusement and realizes that could be himself if not careful

Derthert: balls...

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. Many great rulers have attempted to Unite the quarrelling descendants of Calradios the Great under one cause and most have failed, so steel yourself great warrior for today you... 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. When it comes to skills, you have more liberty, but if we want to do this as effectively as possible then we're mainly focusi...

Detailed Mariner Unit Analysis/Tier List for Campaign

TL;DR Tier List. These are my personal notes and I acknowledge it is just my opinion, just posted to hopefully help others S: Imperial Naute A: Battanian Skipari, Vlandian Nauta, Nord Huscarl, B: Sturgian Reaver, Nord Berserkr, Aserai Bahriyyah, C: Corsair Chief, Nord Skjaldbrestir, Nord Chosen of the Sky-God, Sea Raider Chief D: Various Convoy Guards, Nord Ulfhedinn, F: Nord Youngling Testing is done in actual campaign as well as using custom battles and the Retinue mod to look directly at stats/equipment. General Observations: Shields are required, otherwise you get shredded by ranged attacks. Skills and ship upgrades can boost shield health massively, with some like the Nord Decorated Shield crossing 2,000 hp! I've seen Huscarls with 20+ Javelins in their unbroken shield at the end of a battle. You can assume the high tier shields will not break in battle, meaning a single high damage hit creeping through is the best means of ranged attack rather than quantity. For ra...

👥 All Bannerlord wanderers/companions

⚠️ ANNOUNCEMENT While editing my previous post, I bumped against the 40,000 characters limit, which was unknown to me. I decided to take the following course of action: to avoid encountering the character limit again, I split the wanderers/companions and marriage prospects post into 2 separate ones, with "Bannerlord" in the title for SEO reasons. Furthermore, instead of maintaining posts for each branch, the active posts will be dedicated to the beta branch, with a snapshot of the main branch values accessible for download if pertinent. ​ Up to date as of beta e1.1.0; editing in progress, pardon my dust... e1.0.10 snapshot temporarily redirects to the post PLEASE READ THE FAQ BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION. The purpose of this post is to provide pertinent information about all of Bannerlord's potential companions. Efforts will be made to keep it up to date, and expand on its information. Currently present are the 64 wanderer templates found in spspecialcharacters.xml ...
