First i must say i love this mod, these following are only my opinions/suggestions and are not meant to offend anyone, sorry if these been suggested earlier.
-Not sure if I'm only one who think these companions are too hard to recruit at the moment. I'm at day 196 in game and got none of companions to join me, best I got Firentis like me 46, but he still don't join me, so this is getting frustrating...
-Also why bandits appear my manor village one by one, too easy and gets boring really fast, so maybe increase their numbers and/or actually make them try infiltrate manor/castle or maybe sabotage something.
-Considering archery targets, I think they should give small amount of xp or skill increase.
-Tournaments would be nice, with possibility to have your own tournaments/archery competitions, etc. Having your own tournament/competition should cost money/food, but give you influence points with kings/lords/heroes that join.
-Why not make root out conspirators really happen way you have to go and talk people in your village/castle, depending your persuasion skill they would answer differently and give you right/false clues and then you would have to decide who must be conspirator, a bit like playing detective or something. Hard to explain, but I'm sure you get idea.
-Make people come and ask money/help with different things while you sit and wait in your manor/castle/village...More interact with people, make waiting more interesting.
