So, I've just tried the custom battle feature for the first time, and I got some results which surprised me. One surprise is that an army of Swadian ranged units consistently defeated an equally-sized army of Rhodok ranged units, despite Rhodoks seeming clearly superior on paper. My hypothesis...

Seems like it. Seems like whatever I put in the castle/town before giving it off is all that'll stay there.

It's been 200+ days since the last war. I've provoked numerous factions multiple times by stealing their lords, but they never responded to my provocations. They do however fight with each other a lot. Is this normal? I could of course force-start a war out of the blue, but I'd rather avoid...

Do they have any effect if I build them before giving the village to a lord? Say, if I build a messenger post, will it effect how fast a lord will respond in case an enemy raids it? Also, if I give a village to a lord before I finish building an improvement (e.g. a mill) will it be completed...

...Without first serving as a vassal to a liege or doing anything dishonorable (e.g. looting villages, attacking caravans or neutral parties). I want to start my own kingdom, but these two restrictions pose a problem. Would recruiting a lord piss off his previous faction? Is it even possible to...

Ever heard creationsts go on about how miraculous it is that Earth is positioned in just the right place to allow life? Well, someone dun' goofed again...

What the hell is that supposed to mean? Should I have my whole army with me when trying to recruit lords? Or is it a matter of how many vassals I already have?

Ummm... So I just looked in my weekly budget, and noticed that Alburq castle and Jaylek stopped giving me any rent money....there's two 0's there. I don't understand what the problem is, because both are rich. Jaylek is flourishing. Is it something to do with excessively big garrison in Alburq...

Ok, I am trying to build my own kingdom from scratch (without joining any fraction prior), but so far I only have Alburq castle and Jaylek village from the time of my war with the Nords. The Nords have long since made peace with my kingdom of one, but I've found the lord recruitment business a...

Is it really necessary for recruiting the lords? I have a renown on ~1400 and high honor, but I have not yet started to build my kingdom (Nords are my first target). I don't want to take my first castle and have 10 lords show up against my modest force of 50 huscarls and companions. I want to...

Is this a historical piece of armor? I've searched but found nothing of the sort among European helmets. Well, there's the Polish winged hussars helmet, but that's totally different. Seems to me that if there was such a helmet, it would be strictly for parades or other such events.

Over the "Draw Muhammad Day", which is a day someone made as a response to the death threats Matt Stone and Trey Parker received when they depicted Muhammad in South Park episode. The whole thing was supposed to be today, and many users portrayed Muhammad on various social networking sites...

What a surprise. There are plenty of news reports on youtubes and blogs, here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVs73i0E1vw Anyhow, I'm glad to see that at least Matt and Trey have the balls to not bend over and be a ***** to insecure brainwashed prunes that can't take a parody. If someone...

Imagine you had the ability to become completely happy for the rest of your life, but with a small catch. You would have had to give away all your perception of objective reality, thereby loosing all connection to the "real world". It doesn't matter how it would come about... Perhaps through a...

It's odd isn't it. In ancient Greece and Rome (to a lesser extent) human form was glorified, and depictions of naked men and women decorated many public places. That was the case until Abrahamic religions came along and transformed nudity into something extremely taboo; a sin. God hates when...

It would help this topic if you have read Huxley's book. Basically, it's about this odd type of society, where everyone is happy. It's structured much like insect societies (bees and ant kingdoms). People there are carefully developed in special glass bottles and born in 'birthing centers'...

Guys, i need help (regarding a movie again). About 7 years ago, i have seen some movie (only a fragment, of course) which caught my attention. It was science fiction, and the plot revolved around some sort of biological "virtual reality controller" or something like that. It was pale skin...

I've seen it when i was 7 years old, on TV, so i presume it was made somewhere in the early 90's. I assume it was American or British. Basically, the plot involves aliens (it was implied at least) dropping small pieces of mysterious blue crystal on Earth that had a rather nasty property of...

Let's assume you have the means necessary to get the best quality of either one. Let's also assume if you choose sex you would not die of starvation and still get your nutrients, but in a form of a pill or a tube, depriving you of any pleasure associated with food. So....which would you choose?

Wouldn't you die for everyone in the world? If right now you were presented with an opportunity to be tortured and die in order to save every human from eternal torment, would you take it? The ratio is one to trillions... Let's also assume that if you do, your name wouldn't be remembered and...
