I really hope someone makes Bannerlord:1866 

But that they keep the spaghetti western feel of this original 1866. Playing a cliche is so much more fun than historical accuracy...

Almost every guy there boasts a beard or mustache.... Respect!
Every M&B character I ever made since beta 0.808 had a mustache.

Mustache forthwith! 

for profitable simple trade - buy from villages and sell to the cities. The village prices on many pricy commodities are much lower than what you get in cities.

A general strategy for long term leveling is to pump your companions up on "trainining" skill. Raw recruits are level 15 usually, so until your companions are higher than that they will not contribute any training - HOWEVER, they will train each other, so the few that do more killing and level faster will pull the others (usually the skill mules) after them in levels. Eventually they will be recruits upgrade machines.

If your party is too big to fight bandit groups, it means that it is time to start raiding caravans and join the big league (fighting armies and sieges).

My thoughts

All you need to take from the video is "Rome wasn't built in a day"GL devs.

It seems to me that you are disappointed not because of the DLC, but because of your expectations. This is not a MP centric DLC - it is more about the SP game. Call it a SP DLC with a MP option as bonus. There is a small selection of weapons because that's what people used in that part of the world in that specific time frame - there were a few good weapons and everyone used them with minor variations. Same goes for armors. Archery sucks because.. well.. archery sucked back then and was not a serious factor in wars. Games tend to over emphasize archery because players like it and make it way more effective than it actually was, but this is not that kind of a game.

I dont understand your problems with the SP. The game starts with you getting your ass kicked - so? it is set in such a way that you start from the bottom and for this reason you cannot recruit easily. Do you really think that in those times a scruffy unknown armed person walked into a village and 10 able men would leap and join him as his loyal soldiers? You dont like SP, then this DLC is probably not for you.

wow. Came here to reinstall Brytenwalda and found a new version!
This team is just awesome.

Hi Gab, thanks for this wonderful mod. I only got to play around with it for a short time, but I found one bug:
I can pick up bullets that I fired (same as arrows in vanilla).

I think that there is a flag for ammo items that can make them disappear after the hit (like stones in vanilla if I remember correctly).

GAB, I have great expectations from this version. I even reinstalled old M&B 1866 just because I am impatient to wait.

Good luck and I am sorry I cannot afford more than encouragements to help you with your effort.

Ball Licking Mongrel is my last Indian character.
Rupert Duvel (tribute to Robert Duvall) is my new outlaw.

Idibil and the Brytenwalda team,
Congratulations on finishing what is probably the most ambitious single player mod for MnBW. You have done an amazing job bringing the single player what it needed most - content. This is a significant achievement. The original single player game is fun an all, but has "indy" written all over it. Your team took this platform and elevated it to the AAA level, for no return except our gratitudes. Not to mention that you took non-profit modding into a completely different level with the novel, table top game, art, history lessons, etc.

Now, after I have greased your behinds I can ask my question
Can you explain how ambushes and sneaking work? Can I know when following a force on the map that it may prepare an ambush? Can I set up an ambush (by sneaking? never worked for me)?

... What bugs me is having to use Spear + Shield most of the time, when u have that "one use only" shield bash that doesn't even knock enemies back, works just like a mini-stun, practically useless lol

This is what you do wrong. When you get the Shield+spear, loose the shield after the javelins phase and go spear in 2H. Your AI idiots distract and you deliver the killing blows. You can also pick up other weapons from the ground after a few of the AIs fall dead.

Hints against other shield users:
* Shield+spear has only 1 attack direction so are super easy to block and anticipate. Overhead strike is your best option from very short range.
* against sword+board prepare an attack, the AI will raise the shield. Tap block WHILE STILL HOLDING THE ATTACK BUTTON - you will go into block and immediately ready your weapon again, but the other guy will lower his shield to attack. Time it right and he will get a spear to the face.
* 2H spear against multiple opponent - close you eyes and think of Britain(walda).

I am sorry GABRILDURO, but nothing worked for me. Even using 800x600 resolution with 30% textures and all graphic settings to minimum my display driver crashes.

The crash happens consistently when I enter towns (walk around) and in certain combat maps. Does this mod include the polished landscape mod (or similar)? that one is a killer to some computers. I could play one of the first released versions of this mod but since, something has changed and I keep crashing.

Otherwise, club them on the head, take prisoners, camp and recruit.

It a banjo - you mouse click and it goes "pling!".

Use only boot pistols

This looks so good! Why oh why does my display driver crash when I play it ? oh cruel fate!
