I have a nice wife, a nice fief too, a castle on a hill with a magnificent view. I have fertile lands, and villages that thrive, hundreds of troops who somehow stay alive. My coffers are heavy, my warband is fed, my enemies see my banner and occasionally drop dead. I have horses and armor, silver and grain, a hall full of nobles complaining again. By every measure, I’ve won at this game. I’ve conquered, grown wealthy, and built up my name. Yet I stand on my battlements when the campaigning is done, watching the mountains fade with the sun. My wife is beside me. My kingdom is strong. My vaults overflow. But something feels wrong. I’ve everything a lord could possibly acquire… Maybe what’s missing another fief to desire. submitted by /u/t-o-m-u-s-a [link] [comments]
Hi everyone,
What do you all think of this mod I conceptualized I call "King's court." Which is basically a Kingdom Management feature.
Its would be an add-on to the diplomacy mod and not standalone for Warband. Basically, as a kingdom management feature.. peasants, farmers, citizens, village elders and lords can approach your court like how lord and ladies show up on a feast and make requests of which your decisions can impact the game.
Once they show up, they will come to you about an issue or request like a land feud, food shortage, bandits attacking, taxation issues, business opportunities.. anything!
So you basically have two choices to make, like HELP or IGNORE. Each decision would yield consequences both tangible and intangible like gold or relations.
So a village elder might come to you and say "we need you to send 5 knights to provide some security". If you choose to help, they would repay you with like 3 grains of rice and 10 relations to the town, whatever it is.. I dont have that part down yet..
Or a guild master would come to you and say, we need you to lower taxation for this 10 days which would lessen your revenue but increase relations in the city
It could also include settling disputes between lords.
So obviously theres a LOT of work to be done but I wanted to know if this would be of interest to anyone or is it too boring and you'd rather just engage in battles? I know Bannerlord has a similar feature but I feel its a bit limited.
I ask because my friend is like a software developer who I pass some jobs to from time to time and they have a small team as well so I was thinking of making them develop this mod within Diplomacy but if its not that big of a contribution to the community or theres little interest id probably just let it go.
What do you guys think?
