Beta Mod Release - Hold the Line: Infantry AI - No more moshpit

Hi all!! A few weeks ago I asked here how you wanted your infantry to fight ( old post ). The top answer by far was "make them hold the line", so that's what I built. It was called Better Infantry AI back then, now it's Hold the Line , and it's out as a beta. Available in Nexus Mods. What it does: No more moshpit: soldiers keep their place in the line and step in and back a little instead of turning into one big blob. AI formations that make contact switch to a charge, so both sides fight the same way. Shields in the front rank: shield and spear first, then other shields, then spears and pikes, then everyone else. Works in shield walls too. No more falxmen eating javelins and arrows in the front while the shield guys wait in the back. Rear ranks fight with spears: the second rank thrusts past the guy in front instead of hitting their back and getting stunned. AI spearmen also keep the spear out more instead of always pulling the sidearm. Deep format...

Main Quest Questions (Dragon Banner mission- questions/scenarios)

  1. (In campaign) Is the main quest even required/needed at all?! Other than to see the cutscenes or for role play? Like can you still make a kingdom in campaign mode if you just ignore the main quest after the initial “build up your clan” part at the beginning of the game?!

  2. Can you build the dragon banner, then support a kingdom/give the dragon banner to a kingdom, & then leave with your fiefs & still be able to start your own kingdom without any negative consequences due to ignoring/failing the main quest line after that?! (Other than failing the main quest- which I don’t care about as long as I can still start a kingdom & as long as there are no other negative consequences, such as the empire uniting due to me ignoring the conspiracy missions after I leave the kingdom I gave the banner to. Or such as the empire being stuck in a endless state of conspiracy because I ignore the conspiracy missions.)

2A. Or does the dragon banner come with you when you leave the kingdom you initially supported/leave the kingdom you gave the dragon banner to/leave the kingdom you were vassaling for? Like say I give the banner to vlandia/support vlandia, & then I leave their kingdom & start my own, does vlandia keep the dragon banner? Or does the dragon banner leave with me/stay with my player?!

  1. (Continued) Has anyone tried doing either of these scenarios?! (Supporting a faction/giving away the dragon banner to a faction, then leaving that kingdom & starting your own & then either ignoring the main quest after that or continuing on with the main quest but with your own kingdom?)- essentially using the dragon banner to make enemies attack the kingdom you are leaving. If any have tried this plz chime in & let us know what happens.

Like, (Since I don’t really care about the cutscenes/role play,) Should I just ignore the main dragon banner quest all together & go about being a merc then vassal then leave the kingdom I am vassaling for with my fiefs & peace out with them immediately while I build up strength & attack weaker enemies like battania & sturgia.

Thanks in advance to anyone who chimes in with useful information/advice.

(Basically I don’t want to waste a whole long play-though & then get stuck bc I messed up the main quest or something stupid.)

Help with the Subreddit's new Guide! Guide is in the Description and Link in the Comments⬇️

So I got the go-ahead to write a guide for the Mods to post and pin on top of the sub and while my 3000+ hours of Bannerlord and wide experience with speedrunning this quest covers a lot, I am sure that I might have missed some neat tips and tricks. Please also tell if there if something that needs closer clarification with more text or an image. The Bannerlord's Guide to Unite the Empire Written by Octavian_Exumbra So you want to unite the Calradian Empire? Well, my child, this is no simple matter. Many great rulers have attempted to Unite the quarrelling descendants of Calradios the Great under one cause and most have failed, so steel yourself great warrior for today you... I'm just messing with you. It's actually a fairly simple process, so let's just dive right into it. New Campaign: Starting off, we're picking Empire culture. When it comes to skills, you have more liberty, but if we want to do this as effectively as possible then we're mainly focusi...

Detailed Mariner Unit Analysis/Tier List for Campaign

TL;DR Tier List. These are my personal notes and I acknowledge it is just my opinion, just posted to hopefully help others S: Imperial Naute A: Battanian Skipari, Vlandian Nauta, Nord Huscarl, B: Sturgian Reaver, Nord Berserkr, Aserai Bahriyyah, C: Corsair Chief, Nord Skjaldbrestir, Nord Chosen of the Sky-God, Sea Raider Chief D: Various Convoy Guards, Nord Ulfhedinn, F: Nord Youngling Testing is done in actual campaign as well as using custom battles and the Retinue mod to look directly at stats/equipment. General Observations: Shields are required, otherwise you get shredded by ranged attacks. Skills and ship upgrades can boost shield health massively, with some like the Nord Decorated Shield crossing 2,000 hp! I've seen Huscarls with 20+ Javelins in their unbroken shield at the end of a battle. You can assume the high tier shields will not break in battle, meaning a single high damage hit creeping through is the best means of ranged attack rather than quantity. For ra...

👥 All Bannerlord wanderers/companions

⚠️ ANNOUNCEMENT While editing my previous post, I bumped against the 40,000 characters limit, which was unknown to me. I decided to take the following course of action: to avoid encountering the character limit again, I split the wanderers/companions and marriage prospects post into 2 separate ones, with "Bannerlord" in the title for SEO reasons. Furthermore, instead of maintaining posts for each branch, the active posts will be dedicated to the beta branch, with a snapshot of the main branch values accessible for download if pertinent. ​ Up to date as of beta e1.1.0; editing in progress, pardon my dust... e1.0.10 snapshot temporarily redirects to the post PLEASE READ THE FAQ BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION. The purpose of this post is to provide pertinent information about all of Bannerlord's potential companions. Efforts will be made to keep it up to date, and expand on its information. Currently present are the 64 wanderer templates found in spspecialcharacters.xml ...
