latest version with 3 mods, these are bear my banner, banner paste and shoulder cam.
Just use prevent escape mod otherwise wars are endless 2veb if you capture the entire enemy general staff in one battle they simply escape 2 minutes later and gather an army of thousands and attack you again. I believe calradia population exceeds China by this time (1000+ days into my save)
I rolled back to 1.2 and can play my save. If you can't play it just load up to 1.3.0, clean your save(un tick your mods one at a time and load up your save and make a new one do this for your every mod other than tournaments) than roll back to 1.2.0 and downgrade your tournament mod to 1.2 version and your save should work.
And I love how you fanbois like to blame the players for being bad. No the AI design is bad no the auto resolve is bad no the coding is bad and no Mongols weren't like khuzaits and no Russians weren't like sturgians. Mongols consisted of heavy cavalry using shock and awe tactics while khuzaits are nomads consisting of 70% infantry and the rest is mixed cavalry just like any other nation so the point of my post was the AI is damn well broken and it shouldn't have been after I dont know how many years of development
Oh I see rhagae wants war then hop on your horses bois we shall give them some
Well you can't do that with 50 men or they will come after you with thousands even if you manage to beat one party. You need to be able to get some experienced troops as well as tactics skill before even considering to fight major factions.
I don't think that's the issue I was able to get only 1 or 2 wounded before this patch and that was with 50 or so tier 2 or 3 troops I believe they changed something and that change caused this
No m8 don't kill them. In my last playthrough, I've killed every enemy lord, eventually their children, wives and everybody else came for me I've killed them all too, destroyed their clans(entire lineages) and whT happened next? Ai decided to buy my Lords and we(southern empire) lost half the continent in under a month. Ir was ridiculously disappointing so don't kill them, install the prevent escape mod instead and go lock them up somewhere far away. When you are done with the war just release them or sell them thats how I did it at least.
My tactics skill is 53 but I don't see how that even affects the calculation. Enemy is outnumbered almost 4 to 1, they have sticks and stones while we have longbows, falx, lances spears and shields we would just arrow them to death. Another area of the game that needs polishing I suppose.
Well that sucks really. Nobody should be dying to a looter in an elite party even if you send everyone charging
