I bought Mount & Blade about 3 weeks ago, its quite addicting =D I just have a few general questions about the game.
(I am playing native, no mods)
1. I have read threads about how to get a castle, and they all say to have high renown and good relationship with the king. I am a vassal of Rhodocks, and have 100 relationship with King Graveth, and about 1200 renown. However I NEVER get a castle or city, even when I siege it entirely on my own.
2. I have thick plate armor, but I would like to have lordly plate armor. However, I have never seen anything above thick plate armor in any shop, where (if) can I find it? Also, a lordly winged great helm would be nice =D (plate armor + winged great helm looks awesome)
3. I once was in a vote to become marshal, however lost 9 to 10 =( However since then I have increased my renown and King relationship (900 and ~65 before, respectively), and got on everyones good side, even if only slightly (1 relationship or higher). However, since then, there has not been another vote for 3 game weeks. Is it normal for it to take this long?
4. The king previously gave be Fedner and another villiage (forgot the name, I don't give it much attention). I have heard this can affect your chance of being rewarded a castle or city. Is it possible to give a villiage to another lord?
5. What's the easiest way of making money? Currently I am raiding enemy villages, until I get a full inventory of 200+ denar items, and selling them to cities. Is this a good route to take? I have -100 relationship with all the Nord villages XD
6. My parties morale gets pretty low, unless I'm CONSTANTLY doing something interesting, fighting, raiding etc. This is hard on me, because I would like to do missions for other lords to increase my relationship with them, and I can't. On my party morale report, my party has -108 morale because of party size, and I can't change this, because I don't have a castle to garrison them.
7. I have a party of 112, which has about 75 mercenary calvary, 30 mercenary horsemen, and a few caravan guards. Does this make a good party? I know it's expensive (about 4000/week upkeep), but with raiding villages I can still keep them up and make a profit.
