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]

Why is the AI so bad? Can't seem to finish a war with Battania which I outnumber 6:1

I'm the king of Vlandia, almost destroyed Battania (they have 3 castles left) and constantly at war with at least 2 kingdoms. I can never make peace with one and focus on the other because one of my dumb vassals refuses and wants to keep losing on two fronts and it costs me close to 1000 influence to convince them to make peace. If I do waste my influence to make peace, then some other kingdom declares war.

On top of that I can't ever finish the war with Battania, even though we have 12k strength vs 2k and constantly at least 20+ lords as prisoners. My vassals either create a huge army and chase around a 50 soldier lord while all the other Battanain lords raid our villages, or they attack a castle until our armies get destroyed and captured. I constantly see my vassals getting captured when we outnumber them 6:1 in terms of total strength. I'm constantly forced to run around and capture all the lords on my own (while they keep escaping prison; who coded this shit so bad?) and then the moment I have to get back and recruit new soldiers, they turn around with an army of 600+ somehow and recapture a castle or a town.

Then the war gets dragged until I'm again 3v1 and have to look for easiest peace, which is usually Battania because as I mention, we are crushing them in all stats.

Any solutions to this? Any good mods that keep prisoners in prison? Any strategy tips? Does the "War Strategy" option even work? I tried Balanced vs Offensive and don't really see a difference.

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 .

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.
