Do you have any mid or late game guides?

I play it like warband. Build a character, keep around 10 recruits (as bodyguards) and level them up as you go, go from tournament to tournament to make cash and focus on combat stats (and attack bandits on the road). After 6 or 7 tournaments; buy decent gear, join a faction, focus on social stats👍

Btw looking forward to an up to date guide on Sieges (both defending and attacking) - You may have already done so and if so I apologize. New to the channel.

You would think the larger studios would learn from smaller ones like this. Amazing what happens when developers are not rushed or pushed to dumb decisions, especially for the sake of money.

That was brilliant thank you I’ve watched this game for years but never got it because I simply didn’t have the time to spend hours learning it. This has explained it all very clearly so I will be getting it very soon 👍

I recently got Bannerlord after playing Warband for a few years, I made a battanian woman and I’ve decided my main goal is to stay as a small party and save up as much money as I possibly can while also leveling up my own stats, currently I have 18 noble units which I am enjoying killing large bandit parties easily

Great beginner's guide. Thanks. Looking forward to playing it.

Thank you for this amazing guide. I found the first mount and blade game a bit confusing at best but at its core had a lot of passion poured into it I can tell it's the same deal here. Can't wait to get it fired up 👍 You've definitely got a new subscriber in me

Great guide, thx. Still not started, but all I hear, makes me love this game already. Those Skill and role explenations where really good.

The goal is up to you, that’s the beauty of this game! Trade, become a mercenary, help a King, deceive them when you’re strong enough and have enough troops and take their lands! Take over the whole map and rule the world….it’s all up to you! Enjoy 😉

A suggestion that is far from new and serves as support for any "build" is to participate in combat in the arena repeatedly at the beginning of the game. I don't deny that this requires time, patience and fighting boredom (usually I always watch a video on KZread to distract myself), but it offers free money (depending on your performance and time dedicated), practical training in combat skills (no risk of getting hurt or "real" dying) and the passage of time is "stopped" while you are parked in the city (remember that your character is not immortal and time is essentially valuable). I always dedicate a generous amount of time to this training because I can develop my character to a "satisfactory" level, which gives me the possibility of saving money, strengthening the protagonist as a warrior and prioritizing the development of skills early. It's a strategic way of investing in the character without concrete risks and it's usually at the beginning of the journey that we face the most critical challenges and limitations. I also adopted this method in Warband. I'd rather spend weeks preparing my character than starting the adventure in an amateur and crude way.

Great video! Played mount and blade and warband back in the day, hard as hell to get back into it lol.

Thank you very much for this very informative guide!

Very useful tips! Thanks for this cool video

Thank you for the dedication

Good job my friend, traits effect charm checks with others

If anyone new reads this comment A couple of things about tournaments the weapons seem to be based on the culture of the town. Empire ones are normally swords and bows. The Asriel odds are you are going to have a round mounted with a spear. (Personally I find these the hardest ones to win) Also none of the damage you receive in a tournament is keepted outside of the tournament. If you make the game run the tournament even if you are not wanting to fight your combat companions in your party will enter and if they win you get the loot. Oh and until you get better gear/ more hit points most low level enemies are going to be able to knock you out in a couple of hits.

Damn this was really helpful. Keep it up!

1000 hours in and i had no clue the "follow me" command would have the group use similar weapons as you. Damn. Thank you once again!

I get bored quickly when I choose to play games usually but role playing is definitely something which adds spice to it. You have a goal and it will always be a different playthrough.

Just got this game. I was decent at mount and blade warband. So I figured I’d give this a go. Looks a lot better than warband but also has some familiar aspects to it.

Started playing 3 days ago Bannerlord, 1st ever real fight was against 5 bandits, the only one who went down in my small party was me because i suck'd at combat at the time and was a bit overwhelmed (i did every single combat tutorial and still got beat to a pulp lol) now 3 days past, i just scaped from an army of 500 who had me captured and on my way to an allied city where some of my captains fled to a small band of 30 soldiers of that same faction got me, didnt want to just surrender and gave it a go, 1vs30 not looking good, still i managed to take out 22 before i fell from my horse cuz still 8 archers, i lost and still felt like i won, shit was incredible im loving this game so far, i cant wait to be an actual huge force that could take out an entire kingdom im exited and thanks for the tips on the skills didnt even notice there were personal/party and gorbernor things really helpfull to take in consideration 11/10 video

I am absolutely ecstatic that I found this game today. Back when I was a kid and Sierra was making games, they produced a AAA title in 1996 called Lords of Magic. It was almost exactly like this (albeit limited by available technology) and for YEARS I have been trying to find a game in the same vein. I must have played through LOM hundreds of times. I can’t wait to delve into this, I am on year two and am freaking out over how much I love it.

Quick question: When you were talking about commanding your troops, you said that “Charge” just makes everyone pull out their swords and run forward, whereas “Engage” makes the units use their specialized weapons. But when you were talking about the horse archers, you said to put them on “Charge” and let them do their own thing. Did you mean “Engage”, or does “Charge” work differently for the horse archers? By the way, thanks a ton for this guide! It was super helpful, and you can tell you put an immense amount of effort in it. I’ll probably be going through it again later.
