Just came back to bannerlord 1.3 something after two years

And I love every improvement or changement so far. Well I am 1 hour into a new campaign but I liked th new stealth system and just looking at the encyclopedia relations seems a bit more complex. Loved also the new small things such as troops shouting down your orders. So far soon cool BUT There is one thing which really suck for me and that is the new light system. I really can't see shit in battles, unless with a sun shining at midday. Other than that impossible to fight in the shadows at dawn or even afternoon. And I can't tell if the ai is better or I simply suck. Please tell me there is a fix to this because battles are just becoming a frustrating nightmare... submitted by /u/Plopita [link] [comments]

Why does Circle/Square Formation exist?!

TL;DR: OP is mad that the AI is bad and tanks ranged with their backs instead of just F1F3

Every. Single. Battle. (it feels like) The stupid AI retains control of half of the units in my army and they smother the archers under their command in the center of an infantry circle. Then they just sit there while the enemy ranged empty their quivers and devastate the rear side of the circle who are pointing their shields towards an empty field. Meanwhile the archers are just sitting there going "idk dude I don't want to shoot my ally in the back of the head" while taking heavy arrow fire and doing nothing. In any close battles I have to pay close attention to what they're doing just in case they get any wacky circle formation ideas and quickly retreat and restart the fight or just let auto-resolve decide.

Circle looks kinda cool, but from a game-play effectiveness standpoint it's just terrible. Whoever programmed the "put archers in the center of infantry so that they cant shoot" tactic is either operating on some galaxy brain level that I can't comprehend or they just don't play the game. It's extremely frustrating for half of the units allegedly under my command to be doing nothing but cosplaying pincushions.

Thanks for reading my rant. If anyone knows a legitimate use for Circle/Square please share.

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.
