There is a interesting mode in some warband mod(like Leading Your Army), it’s name is soldier mode , in this mode , you can join lord’s army to be a soldier. And when you kill an enemy you get gold, and you can upgrade your level by the culture of the army your are in.
If this mode can be added to bannerlord, it will be fun. And can go further, here is some points I can propose:
1. Credit System
Credit is something you can earn in army:
(1) You can earn credit when you kill an enemy, the higher level he is, the more credit you earn.
(2) When your army is in a town and there is an athletic competition, you can join it in the name of your army, if you win the competition, you earn credit.
(3) When the army is on the world map, your lord will ask you do something for them, like rescue other lord from enemy's castle, if you finish the job you can earn credit.
What can you use credit for:
(1) You can exchange your credit to money with quartermaster.
(2) You can upgrade your level by consuming some credit, the higher level you reach, the greater credit you need.
(3) You can exchange your credit to equipment with quartermaster, the better equipment , the greater credit.
2.Level System
Level system is the military rank you can reach in army. When you join the army, you may be a ordinary soldier, but you can be an elite soldier after many time you upgrade your level. Usually each level is the same as troop tree.
(1) The higher level you are in, the higher salary you get.
(2) The higher level you are in, the better equipment you get.
(3) You can event lead a small team if you are in the top level.
(4) When you reach the top level, you can choose to be the bodyguard of your lord which has the best equipment, this is highest honor. Or you can choose to be an new lord and get a small territory.
3. Defeated System
When your army is defeated, you may be：
(1) Be a captive and be imprison in the enemy's castle, you can freed yourself by paying some ransom, or you can wait for your lord’s help, if your level is high enough or your relationship is good with your lord, your lord may pay ransom for you, or send someone to rescue you from the prison. When you are free, you can choose whether return to the army.
(2) You get separated from the army, you can find your lord and return to the army oneday.
