My guess is, that Bannerlord will have following factions.
Battanians-Vaegirs
Vlandics-Nords???
Khuzait-Khergit
Aserai-Sarranids
And ofcourse the empire or two or maybe three?
We haven't saw anything Nordic, I think Battanians replace Nords as a kind of late Celto-German inspired faction, makes sense, Viking kind of guys were not around in late Roman times.
Battanian-Nord
Aserai-Sarranid
Khuzait-Khergit
Now on Vlandic, I'm not sure if its a faction name, but architecture in it and around of it looks like this
May be be Vaegir replacement but not sure.
On the other hand we saw this
Thats looks remarkably Swadian, but I was thinking Swadia would be the Imperial heartland so I'm a bit confused.
Empire is also confusing, if there are replacements for old factions, where will be 3 supposed to be big pieces of Empire ?
My guess on locations is, Empire fractions will probably have Rhodok and Swadia as well as probably parts of other factions, map might expand a little further east and allow factions like Khuzait and Vlandic? to start at further east, Battanians will probably have all or parts of Nord lands and may be some Vaegir and less possibly Swadian lands, Aserai will be probably at the same place as Sarranids, an early Swadian kind of faction may exist at eastern edges of Warband Swadia, around Dhirim.
