Fairly late kettle helmet with added eye slits.
Levi Richardson
late medieval kettle helm, quite popular in the german areas
Lincoln Perry
Why are kettle helmets so aesthetically perfect?
Why do they go well with polearms?
Henry Campbell

Literally every M&B game turns out like this:
>Swadia lives in perpetual war due to being bordered with absolutely everyone. Forever fighting a desperate, losing battle.
>Sarranids fuck around in the desert, eventually losing their capital to Rhodoks.
>Nords stomp on Vaegirs over and over again.
>Khergit Khanate btfo's Vaegirs and Swadians by never ending village raids.
>Rhodoks kick back in the mountains watching entire world crumble, throwing bolts at anyone who tries to enter their valleys.
Rhodoks are literally the safest faction, no effort required. Motherfuckers. Also,
>Fuck Khanate horsefuckers
Ian Jenkins

For you.

I was under the impression that Calradia is united as a Byzantine-esque faction and they're up against Calradia-sized countries who take up the archetypes of the previous factions.
Levi Reyes
Nah. Caldaria is too diverse to be united even in a federation. The Nords and the Muslims would never go along with Swadia.
Technically bannerlord has Mongol like invaders, but the factions hate each other so much they simply glee while others get wrecked by them.
Aiden Wilson
Aren't they literally called the Calradian Empire, and their poster-boy is closely resembling a kind of Byzantine look with late-armor.
Then their enemies are sea raiders, I think some crossbow kikes, mongols, and sandcoons.
Leo Jones
There used to be an empire but was long gone by the time of Warband.
mountandblade.wikia.com
Bannerlord is 200 years earlier than warband so the Empire is still around but its small and in decline (say like Byzantines in 1300)
Ethan Turner
Oddly enough. Swadians are actually faction in Bannerlord.
I'm not sure how they survived for 200 years, but maybe since King Harlaus wasn't around to do constant feasts during wars they were more successful.
Leo Robinson
According to Wiki:
>Still, the Empire has an army to be feared. They are masters of combined arms warfare with cataphracts, spear-formations and archers.
Okay so the cataphracts are a nod to the Byzaboos.
Eli Robinson
Some guy got a lady on the throne and captured all the forts of Caldaria all by himself.
