Learn to chamber-block, as it's called in multiplayer. It's possible to do with a dagger, even though you can't regular block.

About midway through that first post there's a video showing how to do it; and no, it's not easy. I'm not very good at it

You can also spam attacks with the dagger as it's fairly quick.

T3; Nord Veteran Archers and Warriors.

I've never gotten a tier 5 troop straight out of a village, but it's random so I can't say if it's impossible or not.

Dev1 说:

Is it possible to get higher tiers or just more at once with a higher relationship?

Both. I've gotten around 30 Nord Warriors in Native with my pimped out, 100-relation village (it can hit 100 if it has a school but as soon as you do anything to raise its relationship further, it goes back to 99.)

Mechanics are as Caba says.

pada, what's the deal with the H3 / C3 designations? Are H's horse archers or light cav, and the C's heavy cav? Or the other way around?

The bonus (+#) is determined by your skill, not companions'. I can't tell you the why, but that's just the way it works.

(This results in me putting two ranks in some party skills that others cover, so they get a small bonus and I can partially cover for them if they get injured. This is just how I do it, though.)

pada 说:

A lot of times the point is to not always upgrade and be forced the choice between a higher tier unit with big damage or a slightly less powerful guy who has a shield.

In Floris, it's almost better for me to tell the Swadian cavalry to dismount and act as my shield wall due to their better armor. Your troop tree fixes that with the swordsmen being mid-tiered with decent gear. But, that's just a nitpick.

Time for another nitpick!
Katrin should start with some ranks of Foraging. Her flavor text says she knows 'how to feed an army on the march' which would go well with Foraging. Even just a single rank.

Swadian peasants are also classified as archers since they are guaranteed ... rocks.

I think if you talk to a lord and look at his troops ("I want to give you some troops", then don't give him any troops) you can re-assign his troops' grouping as you see fit. I'm not sure if the AI follows this or not, but I know it's possible for you to change their groups in this screen.

Oh and when recruiting make sure to pick one option for why you should rule and stick with it, if you try to say what you think they want to hear it will get around. I tried a different option ONCE just to see if it got a different reaction and everybody after accused me of choosing what a person wants to hear rather than a legitimate reason.

I think you get two, but the ones I choose are 'I am rightful to be king' and 'I will be nice to the commons.' They might go hand-in-hand as complementary ones, but there is no penalty for alternating between the two as far as I can tell.

Please note that if you persuade lords to join 1) a claimant, or 2) your current sovereign, your persuasion choices will follow you in regards to this penalty.
For example: First, I persuade a bunch of greedy lords to Ragnar's side with promises of wealth and lands and glory. Then, I set out on my own and try to persuade the nice lords to MY side with promises of ruling justly. The Lords will think I promised wealth and lands to some others already and call my persuasion attempts BS and call me hurtful names

@Matt: I'd say they were recruited then. If they have a positive relation with the faction of the troop they'll recruit them instead of imprisoning them. It's why I've seen rhodocks with nord troops and even some nords with kerghit troops, they take and use them for themselves.

All faction prisoners are also immediately released if their capturing faction signs a truce with the captives' faction.
Example: Nords have Swadian prisoners, the two nations sign a truce, all the Swadian prisoners get go. Not the bandits though; they do not sign truces.

Check the sovereign relations report before you freak out, make sure it says WAR and not just -1 or -2 relation to you. I've noticed if two factions are in an alliance or defensive pact, capturing a lord from one will give you a reputation hit with the other.

I've had instances, as a vassal of the Nords running around and capturing some Vaegir punks, where I'd lose reputation with the Sarranid, which we had a truce with. The screen would immediately display that the Sarranid Sultanate declared war upon the Nords, but it didn't actually happen. We were still in a truce.

If you spawn with a team in a tournament, remember you can order them around like normal soldiers. Tell them to follow you and you can let the other teams duke it out.


PS: Unhorse lancers and leave them for last, then punch them into submission.

Floris Expanded, started a new game, no tweaking of any files that would affect these.

The entire mercenary pikemen line (Edelknecht -> Landsknect, as well as Ritterbroeder) spawn with shields.. and polearms that disallow their use. This holds true for several other units as well (Swadian guards, at least one Rhodok unit). Unless this is meant to be used with the equipment orders you can issue in battle, it needs to be looked at.

The Barbury Fur Coats seem to be missing their upper leg / thigh textures (at least on the female model)
Monk Sandals and Priest Leggings set the leg appearance to be about a foot behind the character model (once again, female. I also cheated to look at these two items)

(ladies and ladies... etc)

FYI, involving playing as a female, you can exploit the hell out of your husband by garrisoning a ridiculous amount of troops in his castles/towns and not have to pay any upkeep for them. Lady-lady interaction ( ) would be an improvement but I think it should be limited to information-gathering stuff. They likely couldn't take a whole lot of overt action back in the day.


Something I would like to see is the View Troop Tree thing detailing whether a unit was guaranteed a ranged weapon or not. Are all these mounted units guaranteed their ranged weapons? I don't know who to set to horse archers and who not to without popping open the troop editor.

I don't like the limited shielded infantry. Seems like most non-Nord, non-Rhodok higher tiered infantry lack a shield (highlanders, the vaegir sledgehammer guys, etc). Fixing this might cause some serious work, so I'd like to suggest giving the mercenary... Soldner? a bigger shield. Whichever one has just the buckler. He goes old round -> buckler -> (kite / heater) shield. This would help pad out my line with a little more protection.

Not to my knowledge. Polygamy and adultery are frowned upon in Calradia.

Then how'd my husband get away with it?
