Polearms are useful

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.

MountandFeast will be back tonight with an updated version of Zulu that fixes the infamous flickering bug that covers the whole screen.

are you trying to trick me

>Fire off an arrow across the map into a cav fight
>Head shot
>You hit a friendly unit!
>X is killed by X
>Party loses 5 morale

whoops

Is this real life or am I being rused?

It's as real as you want it to be.

There's a new version of AZW? Link?

With all the shit going on in turkey I hope the devs don't die on us.

Because Vaegir archers are Battanian remnants. Vaegirs are a mix of Northern Imperials, Sturgians, Khuzait, and Battanians. Look at Klethi, she's Battanian as fuck, she's from Uslum.

Companions make bad lords because the best skills for lords are shit to build up from scratch. They also have no relationships or establishment with other Calradian lords, and their lord personality is always martial.

It would be nice if you could do more organization with the companions, though. Like designate Katrin as company quartermaster, so party inventory uses her inventory skills, and things like that. Also designating a lieutenant or something that can detach from the company with their own party, and accompany you, hold position, or travel to a location. That'd be a nice feature, especially if you have no garrison-holding fief and need to a small party for a specific mission.

LONG MAY HE REIGN

so what was the texture problem?

>he's never suffered through the AZW experience

...

no no I knew about the problem, but what caused it?
I've seen it in 1257 as well

Wtf why Bannerlord is set in early medieval when late medieval is clearly superior. This is biggets boner killer for me.

in azw it was a bugged mesh or something that the elder zulu warrior had equipped

fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=4l3bacje38ebusi1aejen0jhe3&topic=29552.0

Praise g*d

isn't a new version just a fix
one of the meshes didn't have properly done attachments
shouldn't do since it's an AZW specific problem, weird
did that happen a lot or just a few times?

>did that happen a lot or just a few times?
it's a pretty rare occurrence, only ever seen it in the holy land and britain

>the .exe to install it was deleted with the rest of my mountain mods a while ago
>moddb coupled with my shitty internet will make it take hours to download even without patching
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

better get started now :^)

Ok, so where is the fix?

r e a d t h e t h r e a d

See
Bottom of the pastebin.

in my pastebin, it's a fix as well as some other tweaks which are in the readme
we'll be using this when we host so be sure to download it

Thanks, sorry I was being an idiot. Never did play AZW, I downloaded it last time a game was going in the thread but by the time it was done the server ended and haven't seen it since, so I do hope () is not bullshitting me.

we didn't use any other download in the past on top of it but since i found this fix i thought it'd be a good opportunity to do some other tweaks too

I will be officially hosting in about 3 or so hours but the server is up right now if you want to make sure you have everything working.

>I will be officially hosting in about 3 or so hours
make it 2? it's a school day tomorrow :(

...

Is the PC Gamer article online anywhere?

it leaked online like a week ago m8

imgur.com/a/v4jrl

how's the rock this time of year user

It's AZW reloaded right and the pastebin patch right, not some esoteric offshoot I can't remember?

Yes.

Also, I'm going to kill myself if Bannerlord is not out in 2017.

better purchase the helium tank now then

>day 10 of steppe waifu's excellent adventure
>female companions keep going on about "the kangz suck because they male and ur amazing because ur le womens :DD"
For what purpose.

Betray them by marrying yourself to a shota.

ara ara~~

Ok, thanks, I'll try to give it a go.

I did get in to MountAndFeast (surprised I had under 100ms ping, that's rare for me), it took me three times to guess the password though, then the game started alright and then the server disconnected. My username was Fluffy.

Oh, with AZW, I noticed all the hair doesn't fit heads, is that because everyone always has headgear?

>I noticed all the hair doesn't fit heads, is that because everyone always has headgear?
those are just historically accurate 19th century haircuts

It's just the games way of telling you that as a female character you have enough renown to become a vassal.

>trying to get into mp
>teamkill yet another team mate
Maybe some other time

How should I customize my character and the companions in the long run? After some time, I want to start my own faction. Should I level my companions to have party skills (Surgery, Path Finding, Tactics etc) or should I do it myself since they get +3 bonus at level 10 if I do it myself?

So how am I supposed to start off in sandbox viking conquest? I can't recruit dudes from villages without renown and hiring mercs from taverns is too expensive.

The best option is to go full jewish trader until you're well off.

huh never seen him attack a city that far in

>I can't recruit dudes from villages without renown
you can just persuade/pay the village elder to let you recruit there

Purely for winning and ramping up quickly, 27 Int is strongest build. You can start the game INT while you establish your powerbase (establish enterprises everywhere for income, leveling up, leveling companions up, kissing up and making friends with lords). From there you can split into CHA so that your armies are cheaper, and it's easier to keep their morale up and field larger enemies.
My current game I started with some strength just to make leveling easier, but that's up to you.
If you go INT, still dedicate 1 or two companions to party skills that aren't as important but that you want (spotting, first aid, maybe tracking, some more training).
Personally I focused on Training, path-finding, and surgery.

why did you do that man? im gonna have to jerk off now

It really depends on how you want to play. If you don't expect to fight at all or risk yourself in battle, go all-in on the party skills yourself. I generally prefer to keep several companions as INT bitches and maybe go to 5 in a few party skills for +2 on the specialists. The main INT skill you should invest in is maybe Trainer, because at mid-late game you will be the highest leveled character in your party most likely, so that means your trainer skill will always benefit.

It also depends on what your party layout is, but you should usually have a scout specialist and a medical specialist. This will keep your party mobile, aware, and alive and healthy. Other INTbitches can specialize in side stuff like Engineer, Trainer, Looting, and be secondary medics and scouts if needbe. INTbitches should be near the back of your party, and given good crossbows, and they make a solid rally/fallback line in combat. This keeps them safer but gives them combat experience opportunities.

Usually I wind up with 10 companions (8 you can have clean, balancing morale you can usually manage 10 if you're careful), and I'd say 2-3 of them are INTbitches of some kind (always at the back), 4 are pure combat vanguard warriors, and the rest are mixed (generally combat but could be secondary party-skill people). For example with the mixed, Klethi is good as a fighter but she is also easy to keep as a backup scout or a looter.

Don't worry, you aren't the only one.

Holy shit, making friends with a village just had them give me 11 sharpshooters.

...

Trade wine/jewelry/salt from Dorestad. Sell that shit anywhere else and make lots of money.

Honestly, I would say just use beginner recruiting so you don't have to deal with earning 150 renown (and keep a good relationship) just to recruit normally.

>I'm confused. Best adventure abandonment.

Yeah, I don't get why people always go "lol questcucks". What the fuck else are you supposed to do in the game? Doing bitchwork for villages and guildmasters sucks but it gets you money, renown, experience, and the best part, devotion.

SJWs would bitch on their blog, Klethi would stab you in the ribs while you slept and steal your shinies.

Please do not bully him. Conchobor was written by a loyal fan of Brytenwalda.

JUST hairstyle.

that's such cancer when people do that in mods

B-But I'm just a qt khergit girl.

Do not bully.

>Yeah, I don't get why people always go "lol questcucks"
it's one guy and im p sure hes joking

...

holy christ fuck off back to deviantart

wouldrape/10.

Mod companions are almost always fucked up.

does anyone know where to find the gekonewer troop trees?

the readme

If I was gonna make myself a companion I would make it OP as fuck and go full toungue in cheek about compensating for my real life in the dialogue and talk shit about other modders

>I have heard tales of the foreign land of pendor, their elves are nearly as powerful as me
>I knew a merchant who came from westeros, he was cripple for most of his life tripping and falling before meeting Jeremus

>Day 12 of steppe waifu's excellent adventure
>Dhirim has already changed hands twice
sasuga fat feasting man

I had no idea that you could break enemy lords out of prison then take them captive yourself.

Okay we MountandFeast now. Password is "butterlord" and make sure you have the AZW submod from pastebin.com/agwZu9Df

Actually hold on, Juan's updating a few things in his submod I'll restart the server.

did it just update or is it in the works?

he said he was about to update it and that it's almost ready

it's updated

Okay server is back up again.

TELL ME ABOUT THE BANNERLORD!
WHY DOES HE WEAR THE MASK?

Lotta loyalty for a hired sword...

>hired sword
>not hired blade
user pls

Fugg, it's not showing up in favorites.

why do people keep asking this? how bad are you guys, did you even try talking to the village elder? you need to bribe him with 500 gold and he will let you recruit, if you don't want to pay him, just go around monasteries and farmsteads and recruit people, you can also rescue prisoners

>not hired blade

it might not show up because the mountandfeast server is hosted by someone else

Well rip. Can't really spend an hour refreshing to see if it shows up.

it takes half a minute at most

Is there a way to incorporate dickplomacy with the mod Prophesy of Pendor? I wanna play as a Sarleon rogue knight who exercises his right of Primo Noctae to peasant women in the villages.

is parabellum any good?

HOW FAR WILL YOU RUN
FOR THE EMPIRE?

*scratch record*
Yep, this is me

Wow and I thought vanilla faces looked bad

Fuck, you stole my meme I was about to do.

BRITISH ENGINEERING™

wait a minute, didn't dickplomacy have the option to disable adult content in the camp menu?

it's disabled by default
