I can support my weekly costs with about 5 mills, which I have. My party's not very big yet V:v:V Also, am I right in thinking that only blunt damage can knock non-hero enemies unconscious? I need some prisoners.

Does anyone know if I'd be able to install the floris, blood and steel and diplomacy mod at the same time?

Nope.

What's a good way to train heroes? I want to use Firentis as a party skills person but he never levels up.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;29884506]Nope.[/QUOTE] Could I use just blood and steel and diplomacy?

Probably not, but Blood and Steel might already have many Diplomacy features in it.

[QUOTE=Kondor58;29884357]really? In curaw i'd made 450 from velvet and like 400 from iron[/QUOTE] Strange, I remember reading on the forums somewhere those were the places to put ironworks.

Is it possible to redo my stats in the c-rpg mod?

Do enterprises help improve the economy of the town you put them in? Because I'm at that point where I don't care about money anymore.

Any tips for making money in warband? can't find any tourneys and i want to make a few thousand for my town upgrades

[QUOTE=kenji;29886206]Any tips for making money in warband? can't find any tourneys and i want to make a few thousand for my town upgrades[/QUOTE] Pillaging is always a reliable way to make money, as is having enterprises in towns.

Whenever I try to pillage a town a massive army shows up and rapes face, but I can't buy more guys without money. It's an endless cycle!

[QUOTE=Amsay;29886258]Whenever I try to pillage a town a massive army shows up and rapes face, but I can't buy more guys without money.

used half my money on a kick-ass scottish broadsword, walk out the town and get attacked by 40 deserters, they capture me and its gone immediately :saddowns: [editline]17th May 2011[/editline] I can usually destroy a force of that many single-handedly, I just had 20% health

So, right now, when I enter a battle, I position my marksmen, set my infantry to charge not too far away from the marksmen, set my cavalry to flank them, and then I ride around the battlefield shooting/slashing random easy targets while everyones troops spread out and fight. Sometimes someone gets my horse, and I am immediately swarmed. Or I find another horse and keep killing. What do you guys do?

What do YOU do meanwhile?

I ride in front of the line of infantry and hold an inspirational speech in my mind, then I join the cavalry in assaulting them from behind, no homo.
