Is it just me or does it seem like every faction captures one castle...only to have that castle being recaptured very quickly after that...a rinse and repeat cycle.  Over 150 days in and the map looks about the same as day 1...

150 days in is already pretty early game, considering you have to build your army and all. Try joining a faction and getting down to some action by yourself, your actions will have consequences

I've joined up with Nipon as a vassal...However, whenever i take a dark elf or lizardman castle - they simply send all their vassals to take it back almost right away...is there any way to ensure i become marshal? or is it just random...I could certainly wreck havoc if I were the marshal!

I couldn't find the guy I was suppose to talk to for the Wildling quest you get in the vale...He wasn't in Snakestrong (or Strongsnake...I forget the name) is it a bug or something?

I really do enjoy exploring the minor area's on the map (places in white text) best new feature so far!  And thank you for finally giving us some decent music on the campaign map and in battle as well!

Thanks everyone!  Due to your varied suggestions I no longer freeze now...However I have one last question...Does anyone know if it's possible to spawn the ring you get when you start the quest for the tourney at ninestars?  And if so...how?  I foolishly sold it to some random merchant somewhere...Would it still be there wherever I sold it still?  Or is it gone forever unless I can spawn it?

I get constant freezes for some odd reason when playing this mod...

Whenever I try to do certain actions...or really any actions...such as starting a battle, leaving a town, trying to enter a village, or even get off the troop tree screen the game will randomly freeze forever. No error msg what so ever and I have to use ctrl - alt - del just to exit the game.  This hasn't happen to me on any other warband mod what so ever...I am baffled about what to do or how to fix it...I already did all the easy things that I thought might fix it (uninstall warband - redownload the mod - change various graphic settings) no luck what so ever...it's also so random as well...I can go for a couple hours without a hitch...but if I try to play again the next day or something it could freeze on the first screen after taking an action.

If anyone has had this happen to them or any solutions I would be most grateful if you would share them!

So glad to see that this mod will be improved upon!

I find the draharan elephant the only one a player can use well, as it's the only one you can see from.

  You should give that "war elephant" to one of your companions, such as Alindel who should hang back anyway.
  Put him at the end of your troops so when you see the elephant you know theres no reinforcements left...

Sadly I have not been able to find Alindel in this play through so far(Kara has been regulated to the role of medic)...So I just gave it to Antiope and just have her do her archery on top of it.

I have to say after buying the "Heavy War Elephant" from a mystic merchant around 70k...It's not really pulling it's weight IMO.  Firstly, while it may have a large charge bonus of 90ish on it...The elephant moves far too slowly to actually hurt most troops when it runs into them (doing anywhere from 10-70 dmg depending on speed and terrain of course)  Not to mention you can barely see outside the thing too heh.  All in all, I think it could either use a reduction in price or a wee bit of a speed bonus...Because as it stands now, it was certainly not worth me spending 70k to get it. 

Glad I and other could be of assistance to you!  Let me know when you get to the last part of the quest as the "Kunika" enemy never seems to spawn for me  (looked everywhere for him but can't find him for the life of me!)

EDIT:  He seemed to spawn at night correctly for me right across Fresing...Also, there is a huge bug when you turn this quest in...If you continue to say no to the High Priestess to join you, she will repeat the dialogue as if you have just completed the quest...Which therefore could give you unlimited money and Wyvern mounts heh...

I just completed the first part of this quest without a hitch.

Here's what I did...

1.  Starting at Hakkon territory (don't know if this matters but might as well put it down) was a human male

2.  Mess around for a few days doing all starting quests and what not.

3.  Made my way to where the quest is located and accepted here

4.  Now make sure you're reading this post!  What I did was talk to the wyvern escort party...Gives a bunch of red text errors when you do (no big deal) then the enemy spawn and begin to chase me

5.  This next part is essential!  Make sure you run faster then the enemy who is chasing you until you make it to Voldeburg (I believe that's the town) eventually the wyvern group will stop and wait at near the town.  At this point head back to them...but make sure you do not engage the enemy!  Once you talk to the wyvern party they will thank you for escorting them and the quest will update!

6.  At this point you can safely engage the enemy (if you want to be super safe you can wait till the wyvern party goes inside the city...but I doubt that is necessary)

7.  That's it!  If you did all these steps like I did hopefully the quest will work for you as it did for me!

I have not done the later parts of the quests as I don't have enough men to at the moment...So I cannot assist on those parts just yet.

Redwood Marshall summoned me for a campaign (I am mercenary) while the faction is not at war with anyone.
Lords are waiting around Cullmar castle. Marshall waiting for more lords.

I don't believe that's a bug as I have seen that in other mods such as ACOK.  Sometimes the marshall does that...but since they're at war it just results in a lot of wasted time heh...

I have been playing PoP a lot and never seen this (called to marshall in peace time). Note we were NOT at war.

Meant to say "not at war" my bad...And to chime in further I've only seen it a few times myself (such as when I was vassal of "The Vale" in ACOK who are like the "Realm of the Falcon" in this mod in which they almost never declare war)

I have two questions about two quests in this mod...

1.  Where the heck do I go in Tolrania for the "Red Immortals" quest?  I looked all over for that village they mentioned but I could not find it...anyone know where about's to go?

2.  For the quest "Defeat Kunika" where exactly does Kunika spawn?  I looked all over Reichberg after getting the quest but could not find his army...any ideas?

Thank you in advance if anyone can help

Hi there - i can only help with your first question because i'm not familiar with the "Kunika" quest (may be new in 0.7 as i've not had a lot of time to play), but here goes...

The village (Dhibbain?) where the party spawns. You need to move near to it, talk with someone inside the town (i think, not exactly sure), and they should spawn as a small party near the town. you must chase them otherwise they will just walk off.
Hope this helps,
thanks
p.s. someone correct me if i'm wrong, its been a while since i did the Red Immortals line.

I went to the village you spoke of but did not see any special npcs...only generic ones that had nothing to do with the quest...any other ideas?  I did manage however to finish the other quest..and let me say that is one heck of a reward you get for doing it!

Yes I have started a new game.  Twice now on my end.  On my second new game I started at Maccavia...and I was able to fight the first battle against the bandits just fine, but when I went to attack the bandits hideout...I clicked to attack it and the game froze yet again(I should of specified it wasn't actually a "crash" per say...more of an endless freezeing of the game as it didnt crash to my desktop or give me any error..and that I had to use task manager to close Persino) I guess maybe I should re-install or something I suppose?  Is there going to be a 0.72 full version out anytime soon?

  I might do that just to help in case some patch files weren't merged well.  I'd also be able to do some version control on the source files.
I'm curious about all these bald heads suddenly, its like some other date code got mixed in.  If so I'll have to google drive it, I don't have
Mich's Moddb acct and we kept him up way past his bedtime.

  Give me 20 minutes to see what else is on fire and maybe I can sanity check how many bald heads I have in my version of troops.
I specifically scored with Princess Linthrandil 3 days ago on my beta 72 so I'm concerned by the things reported so far.

  For the moment, if I go that route I can pre-reward everyone as it they passed the merchant quest and just let you go about your business if merchant quest has some bug.  Some think so, some don't and its not really needed to do it except characters are overstarved for cash at the beginning.  that can be solved quickly enough at my end.  I just needed enough of a mandate to say its "broken" to override a group decision.  I always felt it was too harsh a beginning.

I would certainly be very grateful if you made a full installer for .72!  I am quite certain others would as well!  Regardless, thanks for all the hard work so far and I'll try and re-install Preisno and see if that helps!

I've been getting a lot of various crashes on 0.72...When I was first doing the merchant quest the game would crash when I tried to attack the 4 robbers...so I had to auto-resolve it.  Then I got another crash after talking to the Tolranian merc guy after saying goodbye...And now I just got another crash when trying to engage an outlaw group.  Other then that though everything is ok for the most part.

I also get the white faces on females when they are far away...What kind of card does everyone have? GTX 770 here...

Can't wait for the next version!  You guys have definitely made the coolest original mod out there for Warband!
