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]
Does anyone actually use throwing weapons in Warband, or any of the mods that keep things similar to native (Pendor, etc)?
Reasons throwing weapons suck:
-
run out of ammo quickly (unable to farm tons of experience every siege)
-
difficult to hit enemy troops during siege attacks
-
even if you kill your own troop to reload, they don’t have much ammo plus you already wasted one shot
-
low range
The only pro I can think of is that they are miss-or-kill.
They work fine for troops, especially as a single slot for infantry. But for your character? It seems like such a drawback.
This doesn’t apply to mods like Viking conquest where there are minimal options for ranged weapons.
