Hello CktheFat
    I use to be in the same boat as you.  King Harlaus gave me Ehlerdah, which was raided almost as soon as it was restored from the previous raid on it.  The lords of enemy factions go about raiding the villages of other lords whom they want to provoke and anger, so if you are in every battle defeating lords, they will target your village.  I have enemy lords who are "friendly" and "gracious" towards me (55+ relation) who attack my village constantly because I repeatedly introduce them to my sword.  Anyways...  I used to have to fight sea raiders constantly just to keep a balance of 3,000 daenars, so that when payday came I would have about 1,000 daenars left, despite having a village.  I had a brewery too, but that brought in about 200-300 daenars a week, so I was still running a very tight budget.  My big break came when Swadia took Shariz from the Sarranids, the Sarranids promptly took it back, because of it's small garrison, and then I followed right after that and took Shariz.  I requested King Harlaus to give me Shariz, and he complied.  I immediately ran out and recruited all of the villagers I could get my hands on and shoved them in the garrison.  I still get about 7,000 daenars a week from Shariz, which helped propel me towards a nice healthy budget of 200,000 daenars.  I used this same tactic for Weyyah castle, sieging it immediately after the enemy faction takes it back. With the large sums of money coming your way, you'll be able to invest in expensive, but more lucrative businesses in the towns. 


As a side note, I find I can take a Khergit or Vaegir (especially Vaegir) castle by myself if it has about 150-160 men when I have about 100 well trained (read: knights, sargents, and sharphsooters) men. 

Hope this helps!    In sum: resiege a castle immediately after it has been taken, and you will only have to go up against 60 or less men of mid grade quality.

Arrow size must be roughly matched to the draw length of the bow.  If the arrow is too long for the draw length, too much of the arrow will extend beyond the arrow shelf (a cut out in the bow where the arrow rests) and the arrow will porpoise, or waggle while in flight, thus reducing accuracy.  If the arrow is too short for the draw length, the arrow will max out on the arrow shelf and the bowstring won't be pulled back far enough to reach the true potential.  Unfortunately, I'm not a historian when it comes to midieval weapons, but I'd still guess that the same would be true even if you had no arrow shelf and where using your finger, as shown in-game. 

Now to justify that long explanation that is off topic, I'll add my own absurdity.  I've noticed that soldiers raised from citizens of their respective kingdoms have better skill points then mercenaries, yet are less expensive.  I realize the reasons for this from a game standpoint (fast, trained soldiers, but there is a price), but lets hope the mercenaries don't brag about their pay to the citizen soldiers when it comes time for payday.

I must have copied the wrong files, since I tried it again and it worked perfectly.  Thanks for taking a look anyway.

Along the lines of thier jarids....

I was fighting some Nordic lord and his many trained footman, weaving my way through the clustered groups of men with my horse and lance, when I wheel about and see one, lone sarranid skirmisher.  It caught me completely off guard and I looked for a split second and wondered, "a sarranid, here?"  While I was wondering with my guard down, he threw a jarid in my chest and knocked me out.  I could only laugh at the hilarity of the situation.

It's all those feasts and cursed inbred dolts who can't lead a campaign to save their lives because they just want to "patrol around X city."  Except Klargus, man that guy kicks butt. 

I was looking through best buy's pc game section (adventure section?) to do some light research on games I might be interested in.  I found mount and blade, clicked on the synopsis, and was intrigued, so I went to youtube to look up gameplay videos (something I always do when looking up games).  I was hooked then and there, and bought it off of direct2drive.  I am very glad I found the game, as it is one of the best games I've played.

hello
    I successfully downloaded the sounds pack from the first page to my computer.  I followed the warband directions (last set) which includes extracting the new sounds to the original sounds file and overwriting the "sounds.txt" with the new included one.  However, there are three (or four?) "sounds.txt" files in various positions, and each one I try to overwrite says "access denied."  I'm running the program as administrator access, and there is only one account (administrator).  I even tried disabling the admin access only, and no avail. 

Is the sounds.txt in question in the module>>sounds folder, or just the sounds.txt in the module folder only?  And, the big one, why does it say access is denied? 

Thank you very much for your time and patience

Hello everyone!

I've a question about couched lances.  I've found that during battles at night or in snow, no matter how much I press the forward button, the horse will not gallop fast enough for me to couch my lance (lance couching automatic).  That and the "lame" in lame hunter seems to really shine through.  I've looked at some of my AI allies and they don't seem to use the lance either, so does this mean that horses run slower in snow and/or at night?  Running slower in snow seems realistic, so I'm inclined to believe this is so. 

Is there a manual that was printed for the game?  Something that explains the basic dynamics of the game?  If so, is it availible online? 

Thank you for your time and patience

I'm not terribly concerned about the graphics really, but rather the smoothness of play. 

You poor soul, I can tell you deal with people like me a lot.  Hmm, so it seems that this won't be a simple plug and play.  Maybe I can check Geeksquad prices, as their is one near me.  I'll pick their brains too.  I apologize, but I have one last question, you mentioned breaking the case.  Do you mean the entire GPU case, or just the pins?  Should I install it myself, I'd like to know what to be careful of.  Thank you very much!

I believe my warranty was the standard one year, and it's up, or darn close.  As for the money, I'm young, impulsive, and I have expendable cash...ah, the good life.

I was worried about that fact, JatuWrangler.  I had heard a small quip about that during my preliminary search here.  You'll have to forgive my lack of hardware knowledge.  So, is it impossible, or just not recommended?  I did a quick search on the Nvidia home site, and they had a section for laptop graphics cards, but perhaps those are for gaming laptops, like Alienware?  I can definitely play the game, but I'd love to enjoy it at it's smoothest.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to this post.
