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

Its just that a Calradia: Total War would have to be balanced somehow, since the big factions have cavalry. Maybe the Nords and Rhodok have the cavalry like in MP? Also, what to do about unit types. The Swadians have a ton of different units, while the Nords are pretty set in stone.

Khergits got superb light cavalry bows, light cavalry lancers and heavy cavalry lances. Unmounted units suck. Sarranids have just-below-swadian-knights Mamlukes, javelin/jarid archers and good infantry Vaegirs have average heavy/light cavalry, the best archers and average heavy/light infantry [editline]11th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=RayvenQ;37610060]Link to Native expansion for WFAS?

Dammit. Just bought War of the Roses, and the beta closed today. :<

Also moved wFaS and shit to to Warband. works pretty weel

Jesus christ, how big is 1257? I'm downloading the SVN version on my laptop and going to transfer it to my desktop when I get home. It's already at a gigabyte, does it go any farther then that? [editline]11th September 2012[/editline] I'm asking that because my flash-drive can only hold 4 GB at a time, and it's going to be a pain in the buttocks to have to switch out, move, delete, rinse and repeat. [editline]11th September 2012[/editline] Nevermind, it'll fit on my flash-drive, it's not that big.

You should've waited until the next Thursday for a new version with manual download.

They are finally releasing a friggin .exe? I guess Kauik finally got around to releasing his texture pack. [editline]11th September 2012[/editline] Or I guess not, apparently

Fire & Sword is so broken. The Polish king told me to start a rebellion against the Crimean Khanite and then declared war on me when I did.

Two Mount&Blade mods EVERYONE needs to play at least once. Sword of Damocles(Kingdom management, lots of factions added to have your kingdom as and eventually fighting off the "roman legions" after a set amount of days.) The Last Days(Lotr mod)

Played the Napoleonic Wars DLC this this morning, had some great moments as flag carrier. Got my own little group sponatneously sticking near me.

Hello FP NW M&Bers! I own a server box and will be sponsoring weekly line battles (On Saturdays and Mondays at 8 PM EST) through the 93rd Sutherland Highlanders, whom I've worked with in the past. I would really appreciate it if those of you in Regiments would take a gander at our event thread and consider helping us make our first event a success! [url]http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,247366.0.html[/url] The line battle is technically only open to Regiments, but if there was enough interest I would be more than happy to pull a temporary Facepunch Pubber Regiment into the event if there was enough interest. Thanks for reading!

[QUOTE=Squeegy Mackoy;37640063]Maybe the AI is actually devious and that was all part of his plan.[/QUOTE] It's actually don't mind that much. They're taking over rebel castles that the Crimean Khanite can't claim back.

Ok, finally beat the Crimean Khanite. The last guy had an army of 30 soldiers and was hiding at the top-corner of the map. I swear, it took me like 40 game-days to finally track him down.

Does anyone know the value of the skill tracking? To me it doesn't seem useful at all.

[QUOTE=MrJazzy;37654111]Does anyone know the value of the skill tracking? To me it doesn't seem useful at all.[/QUOTE] See party tracks on the map. Higher ranks let you see them from further away and gain more information from them. (Party size, whether there are prisoners, party type etc.)

2 or 3 tracking skill seems to do it for me. No idea how much it'd tell you with 10 skill, gotta test that some time.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;37654159]See party tracks on the map. Higher ranks let you see them from further away and gain more information from them. (Party size, whether there are prisoners, party type etc.)[/QUOTE] Yeah I know this but does anyone actually see the point in knowing all of this? Does anybody use this to track down parties or stuff?

It can be useful to track down caravans, parties that you lose in the darkness, war parties, and quest-pertinent groups (kill 3 groups of bandits oh btw they'll all scatter as soon as you leave the city!!).

[QUOTE=scout1;37654400]and quest-pertinent groups (kill 3 groups of bandits oh btw they'll all scatter as soon as you leave the city!!).[/QUOTE] oh this... fuckin hell "kill these bandits who have been harassing us" fuck you mayor I'm not taking that quest

I hate how it takes so long to get started in Mount and Blade. I usually just cheat so I can get to the fun parts already (mostly the parts of being a fief and/or owning your own kingdom, and rampaging around with 300 soldier armies (the maximum you can get, as far as I can tell))

The official M&B Napoleonic Wars servers are a bit retarded, with the rule of no team killing at any time for any reason...yet they dont bother to disable friendly fire.

its supposed to be realistic rayven GOSH

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;37655895]The official M&B Napoleonic Wars servers are a bit retarded, with the rule of no team killing at any time for any reason...yet they dont bother to disable friendly fire.[/QUOTE] I teamkill anyway, it's so necessary sometimes. So many team-wounding fucktards play that game; they don't seem to get the point that barging in on a fight that somebody clearly has under control, is a [I]bad idea[/I]. It's absurd the number of times I've been wounded or teamkilled by somebody who bayonets me in the back when I'm fighting an enemy. If some guy swaggers in on your fight sometimes its just better to shoot him in the face before he pigsticks you by accident.
