Friendly reminder

I like Nova Aetas more than 1257 to be honest.

I never really saw the appeal to 1257 though.

I'm posting Cao Cao in honour of the poster who was posting in honour of the original Cao Cao poster until we get a good Romance of the three kingdoms mod.

Post your advanced tactics

Describe this mod in 5 words

I once played a game as a female character, and I made my army up completely of sword sisters.

Creation. Verb. Prophesy.
Reread lore

And you didn't finish it for the Ginge, faggot. Did you think we'd forget?

...

You're debating this with me?!

...

There's already a dynasty warriors mod. Check it out

...

...

don't believe his lies

Imagine how different this game would be if archers lead their targets

Rhodoks even more overpowered.
Might as well delete all other factions at that point.

>soon

it's pretty stupid how archers act in this game. leading would be good in an out of formation scenario, but ideally you could instruct all your archers to volley fire in a certain area like how archers are actually meant to be used.

...

At this point you could as well give player minigun with unlimited ammo
Any sort of melee infantry would become worthless outside of blocking horses

they would just need to make steel armor more resistant to arrows

Literally me. Except there should be a scattering of cavalry units fucking around with the enemy.

...

I got you senpai

Is this game only escapism for our dreams?

This is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like King Harlaus. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. King Harlaus could not possibly be anymore me. It’s me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that King Harlaus is me. King Harlaus is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that King Harlaus is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and King Harlaus side by side, you’d see no difference. I can safely look at King Harlaus every day and say “Yup, that’s me”. I can practically see King Harlaus every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to King Harlaus. I chuckle softly as I’m assured everyday King Harlaus is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I’ve found my identity with King Harlaus and I know my place in this world. It’s really quite funny how similar King Harlaus is to me, it’s almost like we’re identical twins. When I first saw King Harlaus, I had an existential crisis. What if King Harlaus was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if King Harlaus actual became aware of my existence? Did King Harlaus have the ability to become self aware himself?

I'd say I'm closest to Borcha. He's Intelligent, Nihilistic and has a Wicked Sense of Humor

>Not NIZAR-D

...

months in mount and blade are counted with the gregorian calendar therefore the roman pantheon of gods exists in the warband universe

so.... this is the power.... of INT builds...

How?

>tfw to INT to leave any of my men behind

...

Surgery 10 means you generate a field of biorepair nanites with your mind that stitches together mangled and dismembered soldiers on the spot. Wound treatment 10 means those soldiers are ready for the next battle almost instantly. Pathfinding 10 means nobody will ever escape you.
For INT builds to pay off you need to be slaughtering people all the time without ever stopping.

But surgery works when you're with allies? Were you a vassal?

Also if I'm going STR, how much STR should I go and what other skills non-combat skills should I go for when my combat skills are maxed?

Is it true that if you're surgery companion goes down, then his surgery doesn't work? Is that the same with first aid and wound management?

from what i understand, if a party member is down there stats are no longer active. so yes to all. this would also include training and path finding.

>Is it true that if you're surgery companion goes down, then his surgery doesn't work? Is that the same with first aid and wound management?
Yes. If he is wounded when the fight starts, you get nothing. If he gets wounded during the fight, you are fine.

>Can't decide what to play
>Plenty of good mods, but I want all of the native memecharacters like Harlaus around as well as the native factions

>Floris is shit, Diplomacy isn't enough for me

>Also if I'm going STR, how much STR should I go and what other skills non-combat skills should I go for when my combat skills are maxed?
Most people don't go for full STR because it's kind of overkill. Power Strike/Draw 5 is decent for killing when you eventually get top tier gear.
You could go for the standard CHAd build.
15 STR + whatever AGI + whatever INT + 30 CHA for max leadership.
In this case you would make some companions skillbitches, each one with all points dumped on INT to get those useful skills. This applies though.
All this assuming you're playing native, ofc. Am I being rused?

>from what i understand, if a party member is down there stats are no longer active. so yes to all. this would also include training and path finding.
And there's no way to stop him from entering combat? What if I tell him to retreat, will it still be active?

Isn't AGI shit? Why would I go AGI in a STR build? For what skills?
>Am I being rused?
Just new at the game and playing Floris.

How do I lead cavalry properly? I'm trying to orbit enemy squads with horse archery but my damn followers keep getting caught and dying, my companions on horses that is.

>Floris is shit
Why? Besides for inconsistent history/timeline.

HA for agi, since proficiency increases damage the HA ability can be more important

>new at the game
>playing Floris
baka desu senpai
>Isn't AGI shit?
You're still going to want some points in it for Riding, and IIRC if you're a shieldbabby then Shields scale off of AGI too.

>if you're a shieldbabby
Yep, I'm tired of getting one shotted by arrows on normal. Also can't block well manually.

If you tell your companion with surgery to retreat, will his surgery still work?

>Plenty of good mods, but i'm a faggot
You have only yourself to blame, my man.

I don't even know what happens when you tell someone to retreat.
You could always assign your INTbitches to a group and have them stand around on the edge of the map.

>You could always assign your INTbitches to a group and have them stand around on the edge of the map.
I already do :^)

Bannerlord.

>get kill looters quest
Why the fuck can I ever find these faggots after I killed a group or 2? FUCK

>being a questcuck

...

i put the int bitches in their own group and have them hide some where. in big fights i keep the close to the archers so they're at least with a little bit of back up and safeish from Calvary.

Next version of blood and steel when?

I am so bad at making money that you don't even know. I have an army right now that I'm training up, and I'm trying to avoid becoming a mercenary so I can go town to town doing tourneys & quests. Every time I go mercenary, I don't get any profits, also it restricts you in the area of the faction that you're working for.

pic related, it's the quest givers barely giving any cold hard denari

>still posting L'Ambassadeur
based OP

Is there any reason to play NE instead of Tocan's?

>Elven heathen
>Pavise and Crossbow user
This Elf is just barely acceptable

Okay then.

Is buying and then renting out buildings like the go-to first choice for making consistent money in Nova Aetas?

Seems like army cost rises pretty god damn significantly compared to native.

Despite the fiction you're superior to Kongming in my heart

You know you're a dumbass when you buy full plate armor for your horse while you wear a hauberk with tabard and a shitty helmet and instead of having a lance you trust your horse to ram his headspike up the enemy's ass.
The two subhumans behind him don't exist, of course.

>Most people don't go for full STR because it's kind of overkill. Power Strike/Draw 5 is decent for killing when you eventually get top tier gear.
>You could go for the standard CHAd build.
Why do you insist on trying to force this meta

The player and companions will naturally gain proficiency as they engage in combat. Even with 2 WM you can still pretty comfortably hit 250-350 weapon proficiency. It helps that damage; which power strike and strength improve, helps with proficiency gains.

Don't hold back. Tell me how you really feel.

Kidnap quest, merchant escort, ale delivery, and cattle run (assuming they follow you) is all easy experience and money early on.

>INTfag myself
>trying to force CHAd meta
Posted that because I don't expect a newfriend to know how to handle the INT memebuild with the sniper rifle companions desu.

To the berserkfags last thread, I'm sorry.

...

I admit that I am likely being way too trigger happy. I am just wary of such assertions becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy and anons blindly following static builds rather than going for a build that they like based on pros/cons.

If I didn't love infantry play so much I would likely still be doing STR/AGI mounted archer builds actually.

Someone needs to make a Bannerlord Berserk mod. Then indefinitely stall the project while implementing ship battles.

They're just memeing.

So a berserk themed fishmod?

F O R B I D D E N L O V E

There's a berserk game coming out? I kind of want to get this but it costs too much. Also the combat looks too anime where you're killing 10 men in one swoop. I don't think the manga had that at all, it was one by one. Also, the loli mage had blue hair? I thought she had blonde hair or chestnut brown hair. What in the fuck.

What should I name my Crusader character?

youtube.com/watch?v=hihEhsdwiIk
Isn't it glorious?

Yes, surgery affects all friendly troops.

Whenever you initiate battle the character with the highest effective surgery skill will apply for the duration of the battle. This means three things:

1) If the person with highest surgery is the player it will always apply the player's surgery (as surgery does not work with auto-calc)

2) That a companion's surgery will continue to work after they get KOed in-battle

3) If a companion is critically injured their surgery skill will not apply

"For never was a story of more woe than this of Rhodok and his Sarribro"

Too bad we can't apply our wound treatment to allies as well. Mods that demand Lord collaboration in sieges (like 1257AD) can slow down the non-stop rape train that is an INT build because of this. Yes I posted the wrong image in the last reply

I ship Rhodok x Khergit. Glaive + Hafted Blade OTP.

Yes good no whining for instant gratification like petulant children.

BANNERLOD WHEN

>There is wine of 1,650 years of age
Sounds about right

From now on instead of that I will just post the word with a sad reaction image, like this:
Bannerlord.

How do you guys manage hiring troops from factions that you're waring against? Isn't it very bad for morale?

I wanna make a new game where i cheat only money so I can role play fancy foreign prince like Aladdin. How do I get a fuckton of mercenary units?

You only suffer negative morale when killing troops of the same faction culture. So for example: Your Rhodok troops will gain a negative morale modifier once you begin killing Rhodok troops.

So long as you don't kill an excessive amount of life faction troops the negative morale modifier won't be a problem. If the game goes on long enough these negative morale modifiers will likely be inevitable anyways due to lords defecting to other factions.

>...role play fancy foreign prince like Aladdin
All the more reason to start poor
