tits_n_cocks mod

gives everyone boners and tits high detail body meshes from SOTT/Warphilia/Warwolf adjusted to accommodate the native torso/boots split
replaces head models with higher detail face meshes from Iboltax and russian new faces
adds jewelry to female characters
fixes overly broad shoulders on female characters with a custom female skeleton from SOTT/Warphilia/Warwolf
adds 20+ new hairstyles

Warwolf is the ultimate mod

Aside from the meme you're right, should have said "last blog"

taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/17

Bannerlord is the ultimate imperial experience
"No".

god damn it user

>Roleplay. Can't play Sarranid Sultanate without stones, ninjas without those shurikens or kunai, or a he-man barbarian without throwing axes nigga.
>Good reactionary range tool like javalins to weaken the enemies as they charge you. Bow take a slight second to aim, while you can just fling stones/axes.
>Don't take a lot of space, you just need one slot so you have more room to add other shit.

Useful to kill or cripple horsescum or destroying someone else's shield

I love Turks, they both explode well are a kinda like tiny angry versions of nationalists.

Harlaus gets low relations with his vassals because his vassals get fucked in battle and lose their fiefs because Swadia is in the middle of the map and gets attacked by everyone
To get the relations back up, Harlaus hosts feasts

It's probably nothing to do with a unique personality

turks are just turkified greeks and armenians
the real turkics are in eastern central asia

Doesn't explain Ragnar's greed though

reminder that if you're not using WSE you're doing it wrong

Is there a mode for Scottish War of Independence or the Norman expansion in Ireland?

Maybe that's just a meme
I've never had problems with Ragnar

of course forgot my pic

itp_force_show_left_hand
itp_force_show_right_hand

combining these two flags can result in some pretty interesting stuff
you can turn musical instruments or offhand weapons into gloves without having to override the default hand model

i'm gay

Really enjoying this mod, its so campy but well put together.

>ottomans
>13th century
Dumb forum posters

i mean to be fair calradia in warband is boring as fuck

>the sturgians are not slavs
>they're generic "le ebin vikings xD"

to be fair, real life is boring and filled with petty jealousies between cousins and religions

Still better than the brown people fighting different shades of brown people wich is what the ottoman empire was

How to sabotage a faction? I do not want Nord becoming too big.
I tried to provoke Vaegirs and Khergits into war with Nords, but they're too coward. :(

>stop calradia thing and add Ottoman for inspiring

i mean the ottomans were just assimilated greeks and armenians for the most part, they weren't really all that brown
the ottoman empire was fighting persians, eastern europeans, austrians, venetians, arabs, ethiopians, berbers and various others
not all of those are brown

>:(

Reminder that you will never have pure steppe waifu

>:(
Yes. I'm fucking mad. They have destroyed my butterland and my small state. I want a revenge, I want to cripple Nords. I FUCKING HATE YOU RAGNAR

>real life is boring
Stop this meme

I keep looking I still ain't smashing sandniggers with a sword right now.

>buy a sword
>go to france
>start killing niggers
Is it really that hard?

Wait one or two decades more. The entirety of northern, western and southern Europe will be battlefields. As ammunition becomes rarer and rarer, conventional weaponry will become more and more used.

>As ammunition becomes rarer and rarer.

That's the biggest bullshit that I heard today.

Is it only for native or does it work on other mods as well?

it works with most mods

Fortunately my country saved up on both ammunitions and medieval weapons. I'll be okay. Heck in some place they still go to vote with a sword.
We also have explosives in road pillars. You can never be sure enough

Western militaries will probably be raped quickly by the peoples revolts against the globalists. Production of ammunition will either be slowed down or severely halted. Russia could supply nationalists, so the conflict would end quickly. Or they could not, and the conflict would turn into a long, drawn-out "reconquista" against the non-whites and their globalist masters.

XXI century crusade mod when?

Nude 1257AD here I come, those bitches can now at least serve as eye-candy.

>M'aiq wonders why you would want to throw a weapon. If you throw it away you have no weapon. Better to keep hold of it.

Yes FUCKING THIS.
World War 3 with swords fucking when?

Well, nobody wants a bunch of smelly peasants eating each other and rolling in their own shit for a faction.

>anything better than single shot firearms

stop this meme

let's gets some Arma ballistics going in Bonerlord lads

Stop replying to him then, you dingus

i use them since they only take up one slot
i usually have a polearm/2h, shield, and 1h sword which only leaves one slot for a ranged weapon, so only throwing satisfies that category

>waaaaaaah waaaaaaaah

>only ranged weapon you can use with a shield in most mods
well gee i wonder

Well, if you want a bow or a crossbow that's at least two slots gone right off the bat.

That leaves you two slots for melee, and one of them is practically guaranteed to be a shield, so that leaves you with a single choice of melee weapon. Even if you take a bastard weapons, it's a compromise from a real dedicated two handed axe or sword or polearm, and these are some of the highest single shot damage weapons you can get.

If you want a dedicated two handed weapon / polearm, throwing weapons give you some range and allow you that extra slot.

>attack sea raider landing
>one shot sea raiders with throwing axes
>pick up more axes from the ground
>repeat
if you're fighting against the right targets you will actually have infinite ammo

Why use shields? It gets rid of the risk and difficulty

nice meme

Does it work with Floris Evolved and/or POP?

...

Yes but you have to be more careful and precise with PoP cause I believe they've added elves and other new races?
if there's demand I can make a drag and drop version for the more popular modules

...

this is the mod moddb.com/mods/independence-of-chile

needs more work

>chile

dropped

Is it worth becoming vassal? I feel like it's dead end and started new game.

Lordship is pretty fun, you can get closer with other lords, build a footing for your future kingdom by both acquiring fiefs and handpicking lords that will follow you, so when you declare independence, you will certainly become a force to be reckoned with.
Now when you get a strong kingdom with many vassals up and running, then it will be a dead end indeed.

what said

also, once you've built up your army and wealth a bit, you can focus on protecting your own fiefs the next time your country goes to war and let them weaken themselves so when you go independent you can pounce on castles and towns that are poorly defended. Just make sure you have some allies that will back you up.

you need to be a vassal in order to be a successful king

so this... is the power...

of crossbows...

It's a long shot, but where the FUCK is the Slave Trader in Dunwic?

I had problems gaining any renown, the only time I could gain it was by attacking other vassals, which sometimes wasn't possible since that kingdom wasn't in war. I had too little forces to take cities or castles.

Didn't know what to do really.
Building army is the problem since I need to level up and gain money, which was problem since I could gain only cash from attacking enemy vassals.

Other vassals didn't give me quest or they did give me shitty ones.
Problem is I didn't know what to do at some point.

I had 79 people under me and no chance to level up further or gain renown.

That's too small force to take castles or cities. Didn't had any ideas also how to gain more cash.

As all other anons have said you need to befriend a lot of lords so they pledge alliance to you or at least stop the war against you quickly once you declare independence. I doubt it is possible trying to do it any other way that is not so time consuming as to make it a job for a serious autism case.

What mod is it?
Is it warwolf?

Looks like it, with that GUI.

>I had 79 people under me and no chance to level up further or gain renown.
you can always gain renown or levels
try gaining relation with a lord to make him follow you and help take a castle, or keep upgrading your troops till all of them are top tier, if you have a full party of top tier troops you'll steamroll a castle garrison

go north and fight sea raiders. their equipment will sell for a decent amount and you'll get expereince. Do you have companions? a companion with high trade skills will help you turn a better profit, and ones with surgery skill will prevent you from loosing troops.

also don't upgrade troops just because its available if you're not at war, stick to around tier 3, then upgrade them when your about to fight a vassal or other such large group. This will reduce your weekly costs.

Buy shit from villages that cheap so you can sell it for a profit in town. Grain is especially easy to buy cheap from most villages, particularly around Dhirim. You can start a business in Suno or Uxhal to produce ail and stock up the storage with grain you bought for cheap to increase profits.

Yeah.

Got some questions regarding VC that you guys might help me with
First: What companions are good to carry around for raiding and raping
Second: How do I get shit like the berserk trait?

>gekaijuko tomorrow
feels good!

Untrue desu, you can lead a mercenary life, get renown in battles and RtR by sending companions on missions, and then steal a castle from some faction that's getting its shit fucked and take off from there.

>First: What companions are good to carry around for raiding and raping
i think the VC companions mirror the native ones
so if you open VC and native with morgh's and go to the companions, the companions in the same troop slot will have the same personality
(ie the greek dude and artimmer are both npc_15)
>Second: How do I get shit like the berserk trait?
max PS, ironflesh, and another str skill i think

>he actually thinks he'll deliver

Any mod that makes sieges not horrendous? Or should I just wait for bonerlard?

there's a mod that gives every siege 2 ladders instead of one, it's kind of helpful

So Warsword is actually pretty bad, right? Or am I playing it wrong?

I feel like simply adding Freelancer would improve it a lot.

But, It have freelancer m8.

Not the latest version. I know I played it a long time ago and it was there, no idea why they took it out.

Tomorrows headlines

>Man demands Geek Newer release

What mod should I use?

I don't care about graphic, so these ones focused mainly on gameplay are welcome.

Started new, game with diplomacy.

warwolf

I assure you I do intent to release the patch I'm working on.

Oh wow that looks a lot better than the ones in GekoNewer...Is there a version with underwear?

4 throwing weapons. Save the last one for Melee. Final Destination.

gekogokuozarumojo or that nip mod has neat siege maps. I've only sieged once on Gifu castle but it was fun as fuck. instead of climbing walls you need to break down gates or run right in and the defenders have a crapton of good cover. otherwise the map is fuckhueg and my toaster can't run it without stuttering.

Isn't AI unable to take advantage of that so it all boils down to player using the second ladder to kill half of the defenders by slashing at them from behind? A huge portion of the kill in siege being player kills is also a problem in my opinion.

Lord greediness is based upon how many fiefs and strength of those fiefs each lord currently has and their renown, maybe someone can be bothered to crunch the numbers and see if Ragnar has the worst ratio of fiefs to renown. That would easily explain it.

actually if you tell every one to hold position at the base of the ladders, between them, then tell them to charge, they'll equally go up the ladders
works best with stand closer/5 rows (with WFAS formations) so they're clumped together rather than being in one line
