Don't do "Rival gang moving in" right now, every troop type it spawns from your party will get its whole stack deleted except the ones that spawned. I mean you probably shouldn't do this terrible quest anyway, but I do like to rock my civilian outfit from time to time

:mhmm:

It is a uniquely terrible quest, I actually should try it again. I got owned early by it wearing almost no civilian clothes and barely able to consistently block with a blade.

Just took a look at this mod, it's the Calradia Expanded Kingdoms mod, right? Looks pretty cool actually. Are you using CA - Eagle Rising as well?

Despite us having over 4 times the territory, the Aserai have almost equal strength and refuse to go down easily.

Village notables with over 200 power will sometimes offer noble recruits instead of the peasant line. I think the higher their power, the better the odds. Completing quests for them boosts their power, getting raided lowers it.

How far in the game you think I could go with an ever increasing stack of those + me on a horse running around the enemy trying to make them follow me like bandits?

You would never lose a battle, short of being so outnumbered that they simply overwhelmed you by numbers. And in that case they would move so slowly they wouldn't catch you.

How the hell am I just learning this now?

Also, are there any plans from Taleworlds to give NPCs a personality? Factions feel like they're ruled by little automatons atm. Not saying I need Crusader Kings levels of personality, I don't need to elect myself pope, and marry my wife to my horse, but the option would be nice.

it's never mentioned in any of the tutorials. I think they intend it to be a big part of pre-battle formation setup but that's been coming Soon (TM) for a whole hell of a long time

The traits like "honor" and "generosity" affect a very small number of nobles' personality things, like the generic pre- and post-battle dialog and iirc how your relation with them is affected by whether you choose to sack or spare a town you've captured. but if they affect things like their map or combat AI, or how they vote on kingdom decisions, it's too obtuse to tell.
some more npc-specific dialog for rulers or other important nobles that extends beyond what they know about the battle of pendraic or if they have any thoughts in general about politics would be nice.

I thought modders were pretty active on the taleworlds forums. They have a section there, and I've at least found fixes for setting mods up there.

This is the official Taleworlds modding discord: https://discord.gg/ykFVJGQ. The link is from the Taleworlds forums. I poked around in there a couple months ago when that Open Letter From the Modding Community thing happened and it looked like it was pretty active with mod devs from a lot of the big ambitious total conversion mods.

hey was reminded this game exists recently; played a bunch of original M&B, is this still being actively developed and is it worth getting over just playing Warband?

Yeah they are still patching it, it's fun. The interface and graphics are nicer than Warband and it has built in diplomacy and kingdom features (instead of needing a mod for them)

This is my usual tactic:



I dig the infantry square lure and angled lines of fire. I always try to put archers uphill from the infantry but I could see those dual lines helping a lot in less advantageous terrain.

I like to keep my cavalry as one unit so that I can really smash one wing of theirs with a proactive early attack/pullback.

My context for how this game is being received has up until today been this thread, which is generally positive.


Today I ventured into the tailworlds official forum, which seems to be in open mutiny. They seem very dissatisfied with the game and its development. Did something happen? I know this game has had a pretty slow development cycle, but I think it's coming together nicely. Why are people so upset?

There's a lot of modders who, now that they have something close to source code access in their mod capability, are upset that the source isn't trivial to mod.
