Mount&Blade (Warband too) thread V. Knights of Calradia - Games

[QUOTE=Heigou;36997830]When you get weapon stunned, you can go for another block.[/QUOTE] Normally yes, but he was too fast. [editline]29th July 2012[/editline] I went for one but jesus shit he must have had some absurd weapon proficiency

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;36997692]Finding it pretty dumb so far. If they want to make the game hard, can't they do it without pushing into the realm of absurdity? Took three crossbow headshots and two couched lance hits to kill the Mystmountain leader in the second mission in the game. I mean, wat. [editline]29th July 2012[/editline] 0 damage on body shots from a crossbow? Crossbow bolts can generally pierce plate. [editline]29th July 2012[/editline] I tried to fight him with a sword before that. It's one thing to demand a high level of player skill, but he weapon stunned me on my first block with his axe and then one-shotted me before I was unstunned. Being killed in a way in which you cannot actually have survived by doing anything differently is not fun.[/QUOTE] You must not be pretty far in the game at all, yeah, it's kinda stupid how that's unrealisitc, but the mod isn't bad because it's not realistic, in that game, gods and elves exist. maybe everyone has magical armor and skin that makes them take less damage. Also, 2nd mission? I did not find that kinda trouble at all, I killed him with like, 2 slashes, I mean he did what you said with the unblockable attack but he wasn't all that hard to be honest. Maybe you're focusing your skills in the wrong places.

[QUOTE=General;36988626]So what's the best mod anyone of you have played?[/QUOTE] I've only played Napoleonic Wars and 1257. They're both fucking incredible.

i have no idea how to start this game, should i bother following a build guide or just do whatever i want?

[t]http://i.cubeupload.com/JNu2cc.jpg[/t] Shit's gonna be epic.

Mod?

Recently got Napoleonic Wars and I am in love with it. Of course half the time the game is a total crapshoot between two forces standing too far away to actually hit each other, but its so much fun getting in a 90 man charge of an enemy encampment.

anybody know how to get rid of the CTRL+SPACE fast forward lag in 1257 ad?

[QUOTE=RichyZ;37015024]1257 ad or w/e its got ad in the name[/QUOTE] Europe 1200 AD? [editline]31st July 2012[/editline] no, different mod

[QUOTE=Bert the Turtle;37012256]i have no idea how to start this game, should i bother following a build guide or just do whatever i want?[/QUOTE] Just do whatever. Even if you mess up pretty badly you will end up capable.

Does this thread cover Napoleonic Wars?

Mount and Blade: Fire and Sword keeps crashing on me every ~30mins. Is this a problem that can be fixed, or is it just my computer? If this thread covers it that is.

[QUOTE=Eeshton;37025395]anybody know how to get rid of the CTRL+SPACE fast forward lag in 1257 ad?[/QUOTE]Its not really a bug, it's because you're speeding up all the metagame simulations going on around europe, which contains more than 5 times the number of factions and atleast 8 times the surface area of calradia, and however many more npcs that translates to.

I really wish I could execute all these damn lords in my prison.

[QUOTE=Fkpuz Version 1;37047475]I really wish I could execute all these damn lords in my prison.[/QUOTE] Hah, I'd try to catch as many as possible and kill them. Less lords, less problems.

[QUOTE=Fkpuz Version 1;37047475]I really wish I could execute all these damn lords in my prison.[/QUOTE] I believe you can exile them, but there is a chance they can come back.

Downloading Floris now, my first ever mod. Hope it's going to be good.

If I can get my CO to agree to it and get a custom map, I was thinking of making a Zulu event in NW. The class under Partazani on Russia allows you to use a pike, so they could be the Zulu while the British would have to defend their base.

I really wanna play the Warhammer mod Also the Warcraft mod looked really promising but it sunk

[QUOTE=Royalpain;37049441]Downloading Floris now, my first ever mod. Hope it's going to be good.[/QUOTE] Apart from the Bandit gang rape, it's pretty good.

Anyone here play NW? If so what regiment are you in if any? Im in the 8th Kings Regiment of Foot. You might have seen our colonel Jorge admining the Friday linebattles.

[QUOTE=mecaguy03;37056022]Anyone here play NW? If so what regiment are you in if any? Im in the 8th Kings Regiment of Foot.

Or rather, the engine.

If you lose, they all escape. Also, which mod(s) add war elephants?

Floris and: [QUOTE=MegaErathia;37056989][t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/920111053504881325/E6C87E5028B89E5AB9B36649399549CBDC70B2B6/[/t] Way too many prisoners..[/QUOTE] That could've been from a huuge huuge battle between two warring factions and he got all the prisoners.

[QUOTE=Eeshton;37060148]Floris and: That could've been from a huuge huuge battle between two warring factions and he got all the prisoners.[/QUOTE] Wouldn't make sense though, to capture their own men.

Yo dawg I'm no neurologist but I'm pretty sure 344 - 73 doesn't = 90 [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/UH8L3J.jpg[/t] I wonder if 1257 mod has some lame-ass invisible financial penalty

Fighting a horde of 300+ Khergite horse archers with just 80 Huscarls was fucking terrifying. The lot of them were just circling us in unison, a swarm of horse riders peppering us with arrows. Didn't help that it was in the middle of the night. [img_thumb]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/918985153620498494/C2D3FD6980E7ED929FCB5FB562641056E76B4982/[/img_thumb]

Oh god Native's MP balance between factions is broken, the Swadian Great Sword is bullshit, swinging faster than goddamn short swords and more often than not killing in one hit, regardless of armour. I topped the scoreboards on Wolfpack siege twice in a row with about 30 kills each time using it. Siege crossbows are also stupid, theres nothing worse than scaling a huge castle with 4 levels, only to walk right into the crosshair of a Siege Crossbow with medium armour and full health, and yet still get sniped in one shot. Also, speaking of Wolfpack, I fucking miss 22nd Siege. The new Wolfpack 22nd only has 90 player cap and vanilla themed maps. I really wish I had played Helms Deep with 150 players while it lasted.
