    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I was running the Tweaks mod to fix the fief food issue and it gives you a troop bonus. I did have pretty high leadership though. I think I was at about 280 without the bonus. I found another one that supposedly fixes the food issue so I have tweaks disabled. It has some errors in skillups...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Just gave Vortex a try installing about 25 mods I am interested in. I had to disable one that was broken and a few others that I am interested in don't offer management through Vortex. Going to restart at this progress:

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Since none of these mods are in the workshop, are you all using any sort of mod manager? Twitch doesn't seem to support Bannerlord.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    @Tuco Not sure if you have seen this mod, but it allows you, among other things, to keep your companions from being recruited in armies and to command them to patrol villages.

    The How Not to Use Language Like a Hillbilly Thread

    Let me preface this by saying that I am no English professor and I hope this thread is not seen as elitist but educational. Hence the Grown Up section. Language is malleable and is a tool for people, not the other way around. It obviously changes over time as variations gain acceptance. That...

    I'm thinking I'll restart on the next patch. I have 20some mods I want to try out. I know TW has been focused on crashes but it is interesting how quickly the community can recognize and fix basic shit.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I'd been trying to go the honorable and merciful route on this playthrough and had not been executing any lords. Finally came across a guy who was a Grade A Asshole and decided to kill him. I also installed the LordLoot mod so that I'd get his shit. Totally worth it. Now I am killing all the...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    That's my experience as well. I'm at about 1/4 to 1/3 and it seems like it just a matter of time already. I regularly whip armies 2x my size or more. Sometimes several in a row. Early on, it looked like the kingdom I joined was going to fold though.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Yeah it's really quirky. Like at one point one of my fiefs were lost when I was downtown kicking ass so I went back up and reclaimed it and then was not nominated. Salty as fuck. I rolled with it for a while and finally the turds nominated me for a castle and I gave it to someone else...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Am I missing something or are you unable to overrule the clans and award it to yourself when deciding a fief? Because it's kinda faggy. One clan with fewer members and lower influence has weaseled its way into more fiefs than me. We should be able to select it for our own in cases where we...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Anyone seeing crashes when entering the smith (1.2.0 beta)? I haven't been doing any smithing this game because it would not increase (maybe due to the Tweaks mod?) but I decided to start now that I have some cash built up. edit- Looks like it is the latest update to Tweaks causing it, which I...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    More or less the same techniques we all use. I haven't spent a lot of time paying attention to specific troop types; I just go for balance when upgrading with probably 40% cav. I think lords should do a better job of upgrading as well, so long as they don't instant spawn with a full army...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    My strat for expansion: 1) Recruit to full and load up on food (1000+). 2) Start training the army. 3) As you fight, keep a supply of level II/III prisoners. Don't ransom them. 4) Keep stocking/training the army until I'm full of mostly III+. 5) Start siege. 6) After camp is built, call in...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Yeah the fact that they constantly refill and zerg is annoying. So is a lot of other shit. It's a really nice looking game with a lot of potential but they're just polishing a turd right now. There is no much shit missing, shallow, buggy and out of balance that it just doesn't have the...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Do lords ever come and volunteer to join your kingdom or do we have to go through this painful persuasion process for every gain?

    I haven't noticed any financial issues yet. In fact, I haven't noticed many differences at all.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I'm using the tweaks mod to fix city food but it seems like it breaks smithing and charm. Not seeing any increases in either of those two so I'll have to try those out in a later playthrough. Where the hell are you guys finding women to marry? Once in a previous game I was able to express...

    Played it one night and found that I had worse lag/framerate issues than in SP sieges. Performance seems to have gotten a little better in SP so I might have to check it out again.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    What are you guys finding to be optimal for the number of fiefs you can manage? I just got my 3rd city in the little region I'm protecting, plus I have a castle. Thinking about reverting to after I captured it and letting someone else have it. The problem is these assholes keep losing them...

    I've not really been sending out companions, except on short missions and caravans. Been planning to try it out.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I don't usually use ladders but I've only seen it once myself. What do you guys prefer to use? I think that most of the time the best option is a battering ram and a tower or two. I don't see a compelling reason to spend the time building cats and trebuches for destroying the defenses. It...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    The other lords of my realm are a bunch of incompetent pussies. The fags are constantly joining and leaving the kingdom and seldom have more than about 40 men. Meanwhile, I'm constantly trying to piece together half a dozen of these shitbirds just so I can face 2 to 1 odds against invading...
