Dell'arte della Guerra will fix a lot of what's wrong with it. It's already far too late for TW to start making changes on it and lean back towards historical parallelism.

Yeah, I don't expect them to redo all the armors and weapons to fit correctly to their time period, it's far too late for that. It just seems like every game, movie, tv show etc has descended into adding more and more fantasy elements. I really wish they went the other direction and I had huge hopes for Bannerlord a long time ago on this. I still got my money's worth, and mods can fix most of this in time. I just hope they fix this for new game titles.

Well what did you expect? An exact copy of certain historical cultures but only renamed? I think theyre allowed some room for fantasy.

Anyway, if we're going to say battania are britons, then they're not in the right time. In the dark ages the britons were romanized if i recall correctly. I would say batannia draws its inspiration from various celts.

They're allowed room for mixing inspiration on factions. It's really just strange to see such heavy armors for me, given the timeline parallels. Most stuff didn't feel super out of place for Warband. It said the year was around 1256, but the armors all felt more 1300 in reality. But that applied to everyone equally, so it didn't break my immersion since everyone was at around the same technological level. But with Bannerlord is all over the place, and with some very silly fantasy stuff that's just not realistic.

It's hard to find the regular mercenaries though, the though and armed traders take a lot of the spawns in taverns.

I'm not opposed to procedurally generated terrain, but warband's terrain was usually just ugly, especially in the mountains.

I think they should remove the need of unlocking parts outright.
They should expand the failure system, you will fail if you try to smith something that is way above your skill.

They could just make it so you can't Smith something above 10 points of your skill level. That way you can still push the envelope to level up but it wouldn't be cheating. I like the idea of getting rid of unlocks.

So now I'm grinding out one mostly tier 4 2 handed sword because I can't unlock tier 5 parts. They need to redo the unlock system, seriously. At 265 skill and barely moving. What a grind!

Use companions. They also have a smithing skill, and you can unlock stuff with them.

Perhaps them being level 0 in it will make it so you can get recipes faster?

I just tried it. It doesn't affect the unlock rate. Might as well get the skill for my character.

I'll try that. Thanks.

Though now I'm at a point where I can't unlock stuff cause my skill is too high.

Make the highest level two handed weapons that you can. And make the blade big to increase difficulty. You'll unlock stuff fast.

That wouldn't be bad so you could get exactly what you want. I doubt they would do it though. They went all in on this unlock system.

The other gripe I have is that smithing two handed weapons gives far more unlocks than single handed weapons with similar similar material costs.

Confirmed for Vlandian tournaments.

When you compare any spear to the billhook, the spear seems way underpowered. It's also way easier to hit someone with a swing than with a stab, especially when moving, and that's all they can do. Currently playing a spear user without shield and she struggles.

I'd like to see a buff to speed and damage, though both should be small. Also low blunt damage side swing to help with fighting someone trying to push close.

I've ignored this feature in every game that has it just because its always terrible. Hopefully they make it so fighting the battle gives as much xp.

Just tried it and it at least tripled my promotes. Unfortunately it quadrupled my wounded. Doc kept them all alive though.

Yeah, I've got a healer, not sure how much it helps though. I'll try the simulate. Thanks.

You no longer lose your army when you fail. Make sure your game is up to date.
