    While I appreciate all the work done on troops, I think there should be more effort put into expanding diplomacy and communication between player and NPC's.  Marriage, at the king level, should tie in with diplomacy.  If a king marries a woman from another faction, her entire family should either shift alliance to the king's side or take a serious prestige hit in their current faction. 

    For example, I'd like to be able to send an emissary to a Lord whom my spy master has identified as a potential recruit rather than track him down in person and offer him a town or castle of my choice rather than him telling me what he wants.  I'd like the option to form alliances with other factions and develop trade agreements.  I'd like more functionality in building and controlling faction patrols (size, composition, patrol route). 

    Perhaps it's just not possible and I'm playing the wrong game.  I keep playing the game, and enjoying it; but at the same time I keep saying "there is something missing."

    Please look at radius around Rhodok Culmarr castle for maintaining a siege.  5 times now, I've commenced to siege this castle, and it requires a siege tower; and I get attacked by hundreds of bandits.  If I move 1/2 an inch from the castle the siege breaks.

    This will sound petty, so be it; but if your character is a King and he is talking to other NPC's who are not..... then I think the text scripting should be a bit more formal towards a king.  Probably part of it is just not well thought out game development, similar to when you marry a woman and her father still talks to you like you are some dude on the corner selling newspapers.  Sure it's not key to the gameplay, but the gameplay gets boring after a while.  It's almost like they tried to incorporate some political intrigue into the game and then said "screw this, it's too difficult" and just left a turd in the game.

    Easy way I found was to accept an invitation from a king to join his faction and then turn him down in person.  It gave me a negative rep and I went straight to a castle and took it from him.  So I sidestepped the whole join a faction and then leave part.

    In this current game using the latest version, I've not joined a faction.  I built up an army and went to attack a castle.  Can't, wont let me.  I'm guessing that I have to destroy some caravans or faction armies and create negative rapport with them; but this sort of eliminates any sneak invasions.  If that's your intent, ok; I'm just asking for clarity.

    You gotta do something about the quantity of female warriors in mercenary bands.  The audio file heard during a casual slaughter of 40+ mercs sounds like a cheap porno. edit - or perhaps change the audio file for females getting hit/killed and make it sound a bit better.  I don't know what you can mod; perhaps you can make a slider to adjust the number of female combatants and make everyone happy.

    Any chance that you would consider adding the option to ask a traveler in the tavern where a companion that we have met before, but not recruited, is currently located?  They move around from town to town faster than the ransom brokers.

    I keep thinking that female merc troops cost way more than they are worth.  This mod sure likes female warriors, which is fine if that's your thing.  I'll be honest' I'd rather have less of them.

    how can I join dark knights or get their equipment?

    The DK's just rolled into Rhodok so I went to scout.  I found them, holy Christ!  Now I don't want to find them.

    Edit - In pretty short order they captured Veluca, Yalen, and the 8 associated towns.  I may as well attack a Tiger tank with a blunt plastic spoon for all the good it will do.  All the factions should be uniting to fight this enemy, but I don't know how to get them to do it.  I'm not sure I like this DK option, is it too late to turn off?  yes it is.  Installed 610B and patch.  Exported/imported my character - Get to keep stats and money only apparently.

    I'm having the same issue.  Raze a village and get "paused".  Move away and come back and get "do you want to continue razing this village"  Yes, back to paused. 

    Never looted and burned a village before, just tried it to see if I got the same issue.

    Well, in fairness, there are posts concerning which mix of companion heroes to accumulate.  I was unaware that names had been changed; still don't understand why they changed the names - they were good names. 

    Yeah, I suppose 14,000 is an honest value for his skill sets.  Time to go kill a lot of sea raiders.

    This mod continues to impress me; I love it!  I just finished a small quest for a lady in SS.  Some espionage type work delivering a painting to an agent in Swadia.  How deep this goes, I don't know yet.  It could be just superficial or something deeper but yet to be discovered.  I hope it's the later, as introducing the players to the great game could be a game in and of itself.

    Found Kelemuor and went to recruit him.  He wanted 14,000 Dinar!  Well, this is a first.  Is this right?

    Just installed this mod.  Decided to dismount and fight on foot and then it began - "you whistle for your horse" over and over again.

    Is there some way to disable that as it is particularly irritating.

    Day 75 - Native Warband

    Got KK down to Sungetche castle and they made peace.  I wonder if this is to allow me the option for rebellion and making my own kingdom?

    In fairness, I'd say all the faction kings seem to act similarly and around the same time in game.  Lord gets accused of treason, has his title and land seized, and goes into exile somewhere.

    I shall try to convince a lord to come to my faction - thanks.
