I’m a vasal with the Khuzaits and I feel like the AI is not doing me any favors. We were at war with Sturgia and the Aserai at the same time which was a nightmare because everyone was running north and south. Not at war with Sturgia anymore but as soon as we made peace with them Monchug went and declared war with the western empire. I have 15 fiefs and they all border the western empire. So while every place I own is getting attacked Monchug and all the other assholes have been fighting over Shibal Zumr Castle. One side takes it and back and forth so most of the army is over there. And I’m in the same situation over at Onica castle. I own it but they take it and then I take it back. No one is getting anywhere. I want to go on the offensive and take Zeonica but I just don’t have enough people and I don’t think I can get anymore. Any tips for this stalemate? And where do all their troops keep coming from? They keep coming with 1100 troop armies and I keep destroying them, shouldn’t the...
So I was doing fairly well this playbthrough. I have started my clan and rescued my brother and even have a few of companions. I’m decently geared for early game and had a small warband of 49. These were mostly just infantry with a handful of archers but my companions are mounted. I had 10000ish denars in the bank and was looking forward to buying some passive income from one of the cities…
That’s until I accepted a caravan escort mission… The caravan was attacked three!!! Yes three!!! Separate times by different bandits with a party of 50ish troops but they were all 75%ish mounted archers and 25% cavalry.
Don’t get me wrong I still won all three encounters but holy shit did they take a toll. But the end of the last battle my main character had fallen in battle and I had 13 troops who were still able to fight with 20 wounded and the rest dead. Maybe my tactics were shot but all I could think to do was order my infantry into a circle formation and use my handful of cavalry to ride them down. The whole time my infantry were basically used as target practice and I kept thinking “there must be a better way”. Should I just recruit more cavalry? More archers? How do I even recruit cavalry? Any help appreciated. Thanks a lot
