What better to do for my first LP than one of my favorite and most well-known games? Warband is a standalone expansion to Mount and Blade, an action RPG by Taleworlds. It adds features such multiplayer, the ability to create your own faction, marriage, the Sarranid Sultanate, and more. Warband has five factions vying for the control of the continent of Calradia: The Khergit Khanate, the Sarranid Sultanate, the Kingdom of Nords, Kingdom of Vaegirs, Kingdom of Swadia, and the Kingdom of Rhodoks. The forum thread can be found here. This will be a screenshot LP, goals not yet established, as they depend on the mod. Screenshots will be taken through Fraps.

Watching.

I always played with the diplomacy mod. Doesn't change too much from Vanilla but adds a lot of political depth that should be in the game!

Okay, due to a tie it's down to Native and TEaTRC. Poll will probably be closed around 6:00 P.M., depending on when I get around to it.

EDIT: Sorry about that, I got a bit carried away while playing Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup. Voting is locked and The Eagle and the Radiant Cross is the winner. Currently playing it and getting screenshots.  Depending on whether Imgur wants to be a douche and say that my image upload has failed or not like earlier, it should be up in an hour or two. We will be playing the Imperial State, unless you guys want otherwise.

The faction where everyone is named after people from Final Fantasy Tactics (their name escapes me at the moment)

I say play as the Prussians! (Imperial State, I believe)

[warhammer651]

Imperial State for the win!

If only because charging one of their gun-lines is SCARY SHIT

[inteuniso]

Also, their cannoneers wipe out groups of pikemen in seconds.

Well, some bad news. Right before I was going to upload the screenshots and write the first entry, my brother screwed around with the computer and got malware on the system. After I scanned and deleted the malicious files with MBAM, something fucked up and my computer wouldn't boot up properly. I'm trying a system restore right now.

EDIT: It works now, when I woke up it was on hibernate and turned it on to find it working again. A bit of weirdness, but I don't mind my computer randomly fixing itself. So, disregard everything I said earlier...

I really just can't bring myself to do this. Whenever I play The Eagle and The Radiant Cross my computer gets dangerously hot. This doesn't happen with any other mods, or anything else for that matter. Should I just give this up or switch to Native?

[IHateOutside]

Don't risk your computer for us. You should play native and continue the AAR.

This looks cool.  I'll be watching.  Also, how different is Eagle and Radiant cross from the vanilla game? 

[NRDL]

Bump. 

[Burnt Pies]

Read the posts in between the first one and yours.

[EuchreJack]

Actually, the difference is not explained, as only Warbands is discussed.

[Burnt Pies]

I was more saying that due to the LP being dead.
