I just came back to the game after a year hiatus, and I'm thrilled they finally actually added mechanics rather than just doing endless bug and balance patches that somehow break every mod with every patch. I discovered the sneaking tutorial, and then found out that basically every stealth kill or every other stealth kill gives a level of roguery. (5 focus points) now I'm wondering what's the point of alleys anymore. They were never particularly good, but at least there was an argument to be made that they increased roguery. But now that I can just go farm hideout stealth missions, earn way more money, keep my companions in my party, and not gain crime in the process, I'm wondering what purpose alleys serve anymore? (Alley income should be ×10 imo) submitted by /u/forfor [link] [comments]
Hey all, looking for some advice on my current Bannerlord game, as someone very new. Right now, I think I'm in a pretty good position. As someone new, I decided to take it slow and go through the standard mercenary to lord pipeline for the Western Empire, since their Emperor seemed cool. I married his daughter, and captured Syronea for him when rebels rose up, which led to him rewarding me with the settlement despite nuking my influence. However, I slowly started to realize after multiple losses to the Khuzaits, Northern Empire, and Vlandians, that I might be backing the wrong horse, and so I decided to secede from the Empire. After killing some of their smaller armies, plus capturing the Emperor after he lost a siege on the Northern Empire, I managed to peace out for about half my money, 75k-ish ducats. A while after this, looking for a way to boost my coffers after the garrison costs of Syronea were starting to get to me, I decided to declare war on the weak looking Aserai to try and capture Husn Fulq. I succeeded, plus managed to snipe Ortysia from them when it rebelled against them before signing a peace deal. This leaves me with three (mostly) disconnected cities under my command. My question is, where do I go from here? I have the Dragon Banner, but I feel like if I declared a Kingdom, I'd just get ganged up on and stomped. I could try to get some nobles to join me, but the only nobles who like me are like, two Western Empire nobles (plus some random Vlandian noble??) who want an insane amount of compensation to join me. What should I do from here? Rejoin a new faction and try to build up wealth before rebelling? Stay independent and wait for new cities to rebel? Make my own Kingdom and just full send it? Any help appreciated!
