I believe if you get your trade value up to 225, you will be able to include towns and castles in barter attempts... i am striving to reach that number now on my first play through that has survived through all the patches

While that is not a bad skill (if it's implemented) its skill requirement is too high to be of any practical use. 225 takes some dedication to trade to get. maybe if it was a lower charm lever like 75 or 100 I think it would be doable. That way you still have to work for the option, but it's a skill you get passively by interacting with lords.

I agree, the requirements are too high seeing as no matter how much you use your companions, they rarely level up in anything other than combat.

Sadly this is exactly what i experience aswell. I get the point in the break through casualties, but for me this is actually the only way of defending a siege at the moment and apparently my skill level is not high enough or whatever, but it always takes about 60-75% of my army so the siege won't be fun after all because i got no army. Unfortunate!

Ive had the same experience with over 100 hours, when I break in to help the siege, they just up and leave refusing to fight with a player in the castle. As is the siege mechanic makes it so you will get to be on the receiving end of a siege, you cant even help by flanking them once the siege starts, which I think is dumb.

It's honestly getting extremely aggravating. I can't make a stable kingdom when it takes hours to recruit a clan and they randomly leave for no reason. If it was only 1 or 2 I could get that maybe it was a demeanor thing. It's all my clans though, they are all leaving for no reason.

My main problem with this system is that once you put in all that work, they will leave your kingdom without so much as a by your leave. Im constantly re-aquiring my old vassals that leave on whims. Which is ruining the game for me tbh.

Agreed, fighting them completely resets your siege?! And with me helping my town when an enemy siege is in front, why is at the very least a battle where I'm hitting from behind and my castle sallys out to help?! At the moment I am just sitting here dancing with an army of 500 that refuses to siege with me in the town, but also never breaks up because comps have near unlimited influence. Its frustrating and is killing the game for me. Its damn near unplayable. The farther I go the more it becomes a game where I say good concept bad execution. If it was just bugged, I could deal with that. There are mechanics that they made on purpose though, and these mechanics make it impossible to make a solo kingdom. I get that it isn't supposed to be easy. It shouldn't be straight up impossible though.

So I left Vladia as a mercenary. Which is another problem that needs addressing as leaving mercenary service hits -30 to each lord in the faction and the contract never runs out. Then took a Aesari town, made a kingdom, and made peace to stock up troops. But I cannot declare war on ANYONE because the button is permanently greyed out. Same goes with peace. To declare war I have to attack a village. To make peace i have to pay a lord 70k. Also Vladia legit took over the game, I'm only 150 days in and they are about to win. That needs fixed. I cant start a solo kingdom in the time the game naturally ends. However, the greyed out I have confirmed by searching is a bug, one that makes the game all but unplayable as it makes you lose a ton of relationship to do any kind of warfare.
