After 4 In-Game Years...

[Azrooh]

Nothing much has happened other than Swadia being repeatedly beaten with a big stick - they're down to 3 castles.
This is without my intervention at all, I'm just in infinite camp watching. Kinda like Darwin's Pond.

Is there any easy way to increase enemy A.I. aggressiveness on the campaign map? Would be much more interesting.

 

[Qwertyman]

I did the same,  without the player almost nothing happens.  I too would like to see much more agressive and unpredictable expansion from our lords and kings.

Ten years have now passed.
Reyvadin is now nordic, probably going to go back to the vaegirs soon.
Swadia went from 3 castles to retaking Suno, Praven, and all the surrounding land.
Nothing else much.

I want a live-stream

 

[rokema]

srsly, live stream it

 

[Baguette Eater]

In less than a year i had more happening than you 

 

[Azrooh]

Why would you want a live stream?
A day takes .7-1 seconds. I just AFK and check back every once in awhile.
I took it down awhile ago so I could continue looking for a way to make AI more aggressive. I found something that would be perfect

But it gives me masses of errors while compiling. I dunno if I'm putting it in wrong or what.

Well, I play with the Diplomacy mode and after 1 year, Dhirim had 4 owners, Shariz had been 2 times taken over by Rhodoks, Rhodoks lost Veluca for Swadia, and Vaegirs Curaw for Sarranid (and getting it back in next war). I used only to trade, join tournaments and fight bandits, so it was nearly without my intervention.

I wish I had some of your  luck. In my current game, I joined the Nords about day 205. It is now day 1130 and we have not had one day of total peace; always at war with at least one faction, often more than one, and, yes I check for the guildmaster peace quests frequently. And no, we are not the ones declaring war. I can't even feast in peace or protect my villages. Pulled off a miracle defense of Suno against 1938 Swadians. Now Jarl Olaf wants me to report to him with at least 92 troops to defend Alburq Castle. Probably will get there just in time to hear that Suno is under siege again.

    This is why I find myself enjoying M&B again,  the game play from the AI point of view is very non-static (modulo Dhirrim being a trade fest).  In my current game due to the way truce and wars have broken out the Vaegirs and Nords have been very busy fighting each other over Narra (Vaegir stole from Khergits) and Halgar (Nords stole from Sarranids which stole from Khergit)... go figure.  Khergits and Saranids both sued for peace since they were getting gob smacked by the Vaegirs and Nords.

  The two way Vaegir/Nord fight has come to an end though since everybody just got fed up with the two of them and declared war.  Nords and Vaegirs both immediately declared peace with each other and are fighting off the  hordes. 

  Halgar and Narra almost immediately fell though Halgar fell to the Rhodoks which led to a brief squabble between them and the Khergits who wanted their city back. Sargoth,  Khudan and Reyvidan have been pretty heavily attacked but not successfully.

  On a side note there are notable differences between Marshals.  Gustya is the current Vaegir marshal and he's *very* effective.  He pulled off a nice Narra/Sungetche one two attack that lured a fractional Khergit force into being crushed.  He seems to be very internally popular so he's typically running around with 8+ lords.  The Nords on the other hand keep switching marshals and never get going.

Dhirim is center of calaradia. the most fighting is because of this town. i have often seen a faction go against other just to capture Dhirim. In my case all faction had Dhirim from time to time
