I hate the nades in the China mod. :C

Local Army gives nades to everyone, especially officers. It ends up looking as if I had lots of artillery firing at everything. And by everything, I mean my units as well because the dummies throw the nades even when there's an ally standing right in front of them. Doesn't help that nade amounts are 10 per slot either, so even if they only had one slot of nades, that'd be 50x10 -> 500 grenades per battle.

Basically, in a 50vs50 fight around 75 will die. And all of them killed by my people. :S

I just murdered about 400 peasants in the course of a week, solo.

Wait, so, Armagan, I can only marry lords and ladies?

Ugh not cool.  I wish to hold Marnid Ymira in my arms.  ;_____________;



Any word if they're doing anything about that hero-unit infighting thing?  That was kind of annoying, though it was fun to see the quarrels and stuff I guess.  Maybe I could get a mediation skill or something to keep the peace?


Also, it's always bugged mt that I personally have to take the skills like inventory and prisoner management.  I guess it's something to do with how you lose an ally's use of skills if they get injured?  But, I'm always making an Int/Cha character to take all the personal skills.  Couldn't I just tell them to stay off the field, or assign them as a quartermaster or whatever?  ...But then there'd be the problem of them scattering on a defeat, I guess.  Blah.

Rolf son of Rolf asks you for your crazy eyed hand in marriage. :D

Actually screw Rolf, Borcha has what you need baby! ;D

There hasn't been any other info to my knowledge though I haven't been keeping up well.  This is M&B we're talking about though.  Aramagan gave up on trying to make it a complete game years ago.

About the only word Armagan said in that vid I understood was 'minigames'
Ughh.

Anyone else beat The Man With No Name quick battle in 1866 yet? Immensely satisfying.

Our firstborn will be a girl, and we will name her Rolf, daughter of Rolf.



Anyway, I thought Warband was gonna be a multi-player only thing, but I guess not no?  Sweet.

what i love out about mount and blade is how stubborn the lords are of the factions when you rule your own castles in your name.
That is until i owned the sh*t out of 3 nord castles and they offered a peace agreement  ;D
All with 40 vaegir knights  :D

My best 2 records have been me and 60 kerghit knights taking on 250 swadians  :P
And hold a castle with 30 vaegir knights against 150 vaegirs xD

I'd just like to say that I hate Rhodok Sharpshooters.  There's like a thousand bands of Sharpshooter Deserters 15 strong wandering around, who travel faster than me despite not being mounted.  They can completely obliterate my (repeatedly gathered) forces of 30ish Spearmen and Crossbowmen, their only loses being whichever unlucky two or three I happen to behead myself.

Meh. I modded the Sharpshooters to use guns.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

I don't mind them so much as mounted archers. Nothing is worse then getting shot in the face by a Khergit horseman while he's riding circles around you.

Interestingly, Armok's name actually originates from arm_ok, a variable in one of Toady's earlier games that kept track of how many of your arms weren't missing.

I have learned to avoid the khergit. The nords also make crappy allies. We took one castle then when we marched over to the vaegir territory they saw a few enemy lords and SCATTERED.

Nord Vet archers are incredible. Few meatshields in front, Rhodok Spearmen with those insane board shields preferably, and they rain death, and the archers are pretty nasty in melee too.

I've found that with enough archers behind meatshields, they can do incredible things against...  most things... except the heavily armored Swadian cavalry.....

I tend to stick with vaegir/villanease(from Sword of Damascus mod).
They destroy Nords and their archers.  And others too.  My cavalry tends to be with me for disrupting the enemy and/or intercepting enemy cavalry while they get peppered to minimize losses in the exchange...

Alright, I finally managed to figure out how to buy weapons in China mod... But I still can't get any Machine guns.  I got a decent Thompson... but then I found out Thompsons can't hit shit with autofire...
