[QUOTE=ejonkou;31152539]Downloading the mod. Seems great, I always dislike the lack of ladders in sieges. Like you fight against your own soldiers to get up.[/QUOTE]
Yeah it's pretty awesome, you can get onto the wall no problem because they usually mainly go for 2/3 ladders (or 3, i've seen 4 used for Wercheg) and a small group goes up the third, so you can just go with the smaller group.
And it surprizingly doesn't make sieges piss easy or hard. Me and some nords held off the Vaegirs at Wercheg with 4 ladders no problem.
It also adds spear walls and formations for the AI, so now they go in rows instead of a long line, and archers go up front when the enemy is come towards, then the melee bros rush infront of them before the enemy can do anything to them. It's pretty much a must have.
[QUOTE=Samiam22;31152612]So I played Fire & Sword today.
The guns feel out of place somewhat, they are basically insta-kills.[/QUOTE]
Yet they are as precise as a nailgun, and when you're done reloading the battle is almost over.

Does Polished Native work with the newest version of Warband? (1.143)
[QUOTE=Parakon;31152358]Well I just mentioned both mods :v:

Here it is, it also makes your game look and sound sexy, does a bunch of AI fixes. More ladders in sieges (that actually work). Along with a lot more, It's the bee's knees.[/QUOTE]
So would you recommend this mod over Native Expansion?
For sure, infact I switched from native expansion to that.
Woah, how did my postcount suddenly jump 200 posts?

Fast threads now count to your post count.
Fuckin 25,000 gold of equipment used to be supportable on average on a 1x multiplier in crpg and now it's like 17.5k. Fuuuck this shit.
I should get into cRPG again, just because it's so time consuming and addicting.
I hate the early stage of it though.

Also, that Polished Warband mod is cool but when I enlist to an army I just follow it and when I go to battle it's only as if I'm helping the commander out, not being part of his army.
Might be worth it when strategus comes back but right now ugh
Also this is what the mod made to p much everybody:

What is Strategus anyways? I never played enough nor did I ask anyone to know :v:
I know the time period is all wrong but im still hoping someone makes a Gatling gun mod :P
[QUOTE=Exille;31158940]I know the time period is all wrong but im still hoping someone makes a Gatling gun mod :P[/QUOTE]I think the China something mod for the original Mount and Blade mod had a gatling gun
edit: huh I can't find it anymore. Still searching but I swear it was there I just can't remember what it was called
I think the real question is, can you mount it on horseback?

Jesus christ, is there any counter to the extremly unrealistic crowds of rhodok crossbowmen?
They portray the crossbow as a deadly weapon like it was, and yet you can't take advantage of anything to coutner it, like a shield wall, or simply bombarding those faggots with a trebuchete before beginning the seige. Is there any partiular tactic that works against those hoardes of the fuckers that seem to spawn forever or do you just need lots of human fodder to take their bolts?
I'm trying out SnD's polished native mod and I was just wondering if you are supposed to get weapons AND armor from the lord whose army you are in. So far they have only been giving me weapons and no armor.
On one of charcters I've captured Count Rimusk 6 times and defeated him in battle about 8 or 9 times. Just captured him again. His disposition is -90 to me. made about 15,000 just from selling him back to his family repeatedly. He always comes at me in battle with an obviously inferior force and he always says "you may have bested me last time, but I wont fall for your tricks again!" He's like Team Rocket or something
Im getting tired of seeing his stupid moustache and tiny eyes

Stand behind a hill and charge when they get too close
[QUOTE=Goofa;31164353]Stand behind a hill and charge when they get too close[/QUOTE]You can't do that in a siege
Only solution I can think of is tons of human fodder as you said or tons of counter crossbows/archers. You'll still lose a lot of troops though, especially if you play on full difficulty
[QUOTE=ejonkou;31135270]Can someone link me to the cRPG download/website? I try to google and I find half broken links and something a german forum.[/QUOTE][url]http://c-rpg.net/[/url]
He could always, you know type C_rpg into Google.

Or just be a faction that is equally good at ranged weapons ie the Khergits.
I loved Mount&Blade but haven't played Warband. Is it any good?
[QUOTE=Irish_Cereal;31166558]I loved Mount&Blade but haven't played Warband. Is it any good?[/QUOTE]
Warband is basically M&B's expansion pack, it adds a few things like marriage and Sarranid Sultanate and things.

Marriage? Fuck that. I don't need a woman nagging at me to fix the car when I'm out pillaging!!
I captured 2 Counts, what am i meant to do with them?
[QUOTE=Irish_Cereal;31166558]I loved Mount&Blade but haven't played Warband. Is it any good?[/QUOTE]
Theres no reason to play Regular M/B over warband, really.
Fuck it. Reinstalling. Damn you, FP! It's not like I need sleep or anything.
In the Dawn of man beta module i made a black guy named Morgan Freeman and have taken Calradia over with my awesome narrating skills!

The crossbowmen are more dangerous.
In sieges, they have a tenancy of ducking down every time after they fire to reload, so a good 25% of the time your (and your allied) arrows/bolts are going to miss when one of them ducks down.
[QUOTE=nightlord;31167140]I captured 2 Counts, what am i meant to do with them?[/QUOTE]Sell them to the highest bidder
I think you can also convince them to join your faction if you have your own faction
Also, if they haven't already, Bethesda should hire TaleWorlds so they can add horse combat to Skyrim.
