[QUOTE=KommradKommisar;35941877]Man, fuck the Swadian jousting tournaments, that shit is terrible[/QUOTE]
Play Brytenwalda.
Ivan Barbash (With Fire and Sword) is a pretty cool Cossack leader. He gave me two castles and a town, all at my request. I would guess that helping him take the Cossacks over in a rebellion was a factor in his decisions.
Took over the Tsardom in Fire and Sword - holy shit, handing out fiefs is a bitch. Whenever I give someone even the smallest village, he likes me a bit more, and about 10 other lords start hating me.
Is there supposed to be a system here? I've tried giving to them who had nothing, and to the most powerful ones, to my worst enemies and best friends, and I can't understand why everyone gets so fucking pissed all the time?
(and God forbid I might give one to myself, Jesus Christ, I have never seen so many negative relation-points)
when starting up Brytenwalda, on the loading screen, i get the error "get_object failed for texture: Casa_beban". I've ehard brytenwalda is very fun and am desperate to play it, so this is kinda buggin me.

Does this look like a tech support forum to you? Just redownload the installer and try reinstalling and if that doesn't work post here: [URL="http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/board,189.0.html"]http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/board,189.0.html[/URL]

Try loading the game with "load resources on demand" flagged if you haven't already.

I'm always puzzled that people can't understand horse combat, the horse tournaments are so easy it's not even funny.
Go into your options and make sure you've turned "lance control" to "manual (easy)." All the npcs in the game couch their lances with those settings, whereas the automatic setting couches really slowly. Press X to couch in warband when you hit a good speed on horseback. Couching delivers upwards of 300+ damage to everything.
[QUOTE=Chronische;35937574]What do you mean by 'too seriously'?
Do you mean they were re-enactors in how serious they took things, or they just wanted you to follow the rules of line battles?[/QUOTE]
I mean the CO's spend more time arguing with each other than giving decent commands, then when we loose we,the infantry get the blame.
holy fuck
i've been addicted to this game
75 hours in the last two weeks holy goddamn

Im always glad to do trainings with my regiment at the moment, the Officers have a good sense of humour, theres fun and laughs regularly and everyone listens when they need to. None of them are the stuck up dickheads I quite often see now in line battles and some public servers, and none of them are childish basement creatures that feel the need to say "lolxd so funneh!!!1" in chat.
Do 1.143 modifications work with the 1.134 version of warband?
I know how to fight on horses, but it ends up just being me and one other guy going in circles.

Pass by trees or turn close to walls to try to get him to rear his horse. Then you can get some distance to turn and lance or whatever.
the worst combat mechanic on horseback with one-handed weapons is when you move mouse up and hold m1, really short range and hard to land. stab is best imo.
[QUOTE=Chronische;35937650]I know the SADragoons are pretty damn big, the reddit battalion will probably get big too. I am in the 49e, and they are pretty cool. We play DayZ together as well.[/QUOTE]
1st Reddit is bigger than the dragoons, or at least nearly as big.

1800 in reddit battalion.

Slow down when turning, it really improves your manouvering

I can never time that right. I find that it's best to swing right for guys on your right and left for guys on your left. It's easy timing since you just have to ready the swing and release it when the guys right around your horse's nose.
Made up a bunch of names for the potential Napoleonic Wars Facepunch regiment group. Rate/comment on the one you like;
1. 41st Facepunch Regiment of Foot [Rate Agree]
2. 55th Facepunch Foot Regiment [Rate Disagree]
3. 22nd Facepunch Line Infantry [Rate Funny]
4. 39th Facepunch Line Bastards [Rate Winner]
5. 69th (heh) Facepunch Infantry Division [Rate Zing]
6. 31st Facepunch Line Infantry division [Rate Informative]
I'm not really good at making up names for things like this, hence why they are very simple. Hell, I don't even know if Division is the right word to use at all. Anyways, as I said, rate on which you like or post your own suggestions.
The numbers can be mixed around.

Do a scissor maneuver and come at them from the side.
[QUOTE=Xed;35924109]I saw some mention of somebody working on aspect of a mod that was a pretty cool idea - becoming one of your common soldiers when you are wounded so you aren't just sitting and watching the fight (or instantly retreating, but p. much everyone has battle continuation on), something I had thought would be very nice in some situations before.
not sure what the name of the mod was. but i want it for everything.[/QUOTE]
If I remember correctly there are lots of mods for that
Started to get good at cRPG a bit, though I fight at range and try to piss off cavalry. I started with bows but crossbows seem to be superior right now with just focusing on strength and two handed weapons.
What the fuck is with that "balancer" in cRPG, stacking always clan members into one team and random pubbers into another? Is it really looking for banners to throw into same teams?
Yeah it promotes clan versus clan battles. Admins can turn it on and off though.
edit:
Listentening to The Book of Five Rings audiobook. It's kinda cool noticing how many of Musashi's tactics i've developed and used on my own while playing online. Most of it is pretty obvious, but i rarely encounter people that play like me.
I finally got a castle from Sultan Hakim after i became bros with him.
Too bad it's under siege every fucking day because everybody hates me, i'm serious, i've had groups that were 200+ in number attack my castle even when there's an easier target right beside it.
Welp, the group has been made. If anyone is interested in a Facepunch Napoleonic Wars regiment then follow the link and join the group. So that fun times can be had.

Haven't got a group icon yet, maybe will just edit the FP logo with a moustache or something on it.

hey guys I just bought the game because it looked pretty fun so I guess I'll join this too
Mostly because I can't buy NW right now, do we have a regular Warband group?

Yeah, that can be annoying. Go into taverns and recruit tonnes of Mercenary Crossbowmen and use them to garrison the castle. They are terribad in melee combat, but they are excellent shooters and can inflict really bad casualties from headshots.

It's basically there to keep the poor man down. Basically.
Does vanilla Warband crash all the time for anyone else?
[QUOTE=Hidole555;35958608]Mostly because I can't buy NW right now, do we have a regular Warband group?[/QUOTE]
Not that I know of, but I could make a group for regular Warband as well if people would be interested.
