A poem from our Hero

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]

very unpopular opinion: RBM suck

These are the reasons that made me permanently uninstall this mod

  • RBM gives an "orderly" and technical feel to the battles, almost as if the soldiers were professional fencers in an arena. It's impressive, but:

The AI tries too hard to maintain a duel logic or micro-positioning.

We lose the dirty, chaotic, and brutal nature of real hand-to-hand combat.

There are too many situations where troops fail to exploit their superior numbers or hesitate to "pile on" in the melee.

I'm sorry, but after extensive research, I can confirm that battlefields are bound to quickly become chaotic, and that won't happen in a computer battle.

The main problems I find: the Al's tactics in combat are always the same; each battle is exactly the same.

The battles are really too easy because tier 6 units are invincible, and the Al can never have as many tier 6 units as the player.

The battles are very long, which doesn't bother me, but the lords reappear in a loop (I know this is a vanilla problem, but the mod drives the point home).

Javelins? I don't think I need to explain if you use rbm you know it's a joke.

Let's be clear, I have no problem with realism (for example it doesn't bother me that you have to give 50 sword blows to kill someone in armor) but I find that with this mod the game is too easy and poorly balanced.

To conclude I know that rbm has some good aspects but damn this mod make the game too easy and the mod is clearly not fun and especially not realistic.

What is your point of view ? am i the only one who thinks this ?
