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

What are some fun mods? I play diplomacy atm and maybe I'm not being creative enough but I've already gotten a fairly large army and I'm starting to get bored. I might just restart the game and run a different path instead of large armies.
[url=http://www.moddb.com/mods/laigle]L'Aigle[/url] has a combat/general features trailer up:

The one thing I don't understand about a lot of Napoleonic and Revolutionary war modders for Mount and Blade, is that for some reason, a lot of them don't seem to understand the concept of modeling coats. It seriously looks like they just slapped a texture on another object and you can totally notice the lack of balance.
so, can someone tell me what skill affects how fast the play regens health after battle? wound treatment or what? I've got it at 4 and im not noticing much of a difference.

Wound Treatment improves all healing speed after combat. First Aid (I think? Pretty sure) gives a flat HP bonus to the hero and all companions - people with an actual percentage health value - after every battle. So if you get into a 500 vs 500 fight, every time you hit tab at the end of a battle to move to the next fight, you get your First Aid HP back.

Basically, Wound Treatment is better for the army, First Aid is better for the player and companions.
aight thanks because trying to heal after going down to 0 health is annoying as fuck
takes like 3 days just to get to 20%
Sleeping in an inn greatly increases your healing rate. It costs some money, but sometimes it's very very worth it.
okay so this game has a problem with stacking misery upon misery:
have a siege from the enemy on the captial of the nords, 510 vs 550 (enemy), i join with an army of 81, everyone gets massacred but they retreat, i am now left with 20 units and like 0% health, cue random army showing up and attacking the siegers, massive battle, i join, lose no units, get out of battle, go to city to refresh, THERE'S ONE RANDOM SIEGER STILL THERE AND HE ATTACKS ME
i lose
get imprisoned
i escape within a few moments, try to get back to captial, one of those huge parties of bandits passes by, takes me prisoner again
takes me farther away
i escape
try to go to the city again, or any city for that matter
more bandits
repeat like 5 times
rage quit
Wow Anno Domini has gotten a lot better since I last played it. The recruitment system is a little slow, but it's really quite fun.
Buh, I really shouldn't have bought Warband and the original mount and blade. I am pretty much playing Original mount and blade, and Napoleonic wars as filler, But I am really tempted to play Warband without having finished the original. Which is better? The original or warband?

Warband is better, has more features and stuff but is same game.

Warband by far
how does the AD1257 recruiting work exactly? I've been too dumb to figure it out so I've been playing with Warband's recruiting
It's a fuedal recruitment system. Every fief has a standing professional militia, during wartime you can recruit them for free, and during peace you can recruit them for 500 denars a piece.
A "lance" is essentially a squad of troops that has 1-2 nobles, about 4-5 burghers, and 4-5 native serfs.
Nobles are cavalry, Burghers generally become run of the mill infantry or crossbowmen, and serfs generally become either peasant archers or some more culturally-based warrior infantry.
[editline]20th December 2012[/editline]
Oh, also when you recruit a lance you get a mixed bag of troop tiers. Sometimes you might get a couple top tier infantry and low tier cavalry, other times you might just get a variety of peasant archers and maybe some esquires or knights as cavalry.

Does anybody here have an nvidia 500 series card? The newer drivers as of 5 months ago have totally fucked my warband performance, I cant get more than 30 fps when using recent nvidia drivers. Drops down to 12 fps if I'm in urban areas.
I notice if I switch to DX7 renderig my performance is totally fine, it only happens when using DX9

Uh, you know they don't follow any stories right? I have like 250 hours in Warband and I've never played the original and only played a little of Fire and Sword.
Time to try out this 1257 everyone raves about

I have a 560, Warband worked fine when I had the 306 drivers. I just installed the 310 drivers they released a couple days ago but I haven't had a chance to test them.
god native SP starts out so slow but once you get a foot in the rungs you're good to go
and then, once you think you've finally made it, the king's party with 300 knights decides to up and decimate you and your army

Well, I know that. I just want to finish the original before playing Warband, to see all the improvements and such. Well, I guess I will just start playing Warband anyways, Since I am currently fucked in my game anyways.
I call him "Spike"

Man, this game is addicting like Skyrim was during it's release date. I've got 300 hours chugged into M&B Warband ever since I got it a month ago.
The benefits of having a devoted fiefdom:

Update: 20 of them are now Rhodok Sharpshooters
1866 is a pretty great M&B mod, TLD is also worth checking out, but is not very stable.
