All the map conqured by one kingdom in 300 days

[JannaAguzarova]

Hi. The real game breaker for me happened to be one kingdom conquring the whole map by the time I got my first castle. I remember that in Warband I was kind of thinking which kingdom to attack based on the current political situation etc but once there is only one fraction left in becomes pointless. If I remember correctly in Warband you were not able to conqure the last city of the fraction and there was kind of a comeback mechanics. I witnessed several time the kingdoms left with only one city regaining 2-3 cities after a while. That made the world much more interesting. Defnitely, there should be something similar introduced in Bannerlord.

Are you up-to-date with the current version?

Right now if you have such problems, but want to continue your current campaign, you don't have a choice but to balance the world by yourself. Become mercenary for the Kingdoms, which are currently at war with the most powerful ones and help them to stop the potential map monopolists. I'm doing this and the world doesn't have one faction that is able to conquer everyone fast enough. Khuzaits and Battanians would have already left battling only each other if I didn't slow them both the down.

But then you're only playing to keep the game balanced, not to play the way you want! and you're actually at war with bugs not with the factions inside the game lol

Not quite. You do everything else the game has to offer right now too, plus war is the best way to gain EXP, make your clan tier higher, make your army stronger, make money, etc. There is enough time to do all the other stuff. In my case I don't need constantly only to battle with stronger Kingdoms. I do everything.

Any way right now the game can't be played as it's meant to be and it won't be any time soon. If it will be really finished in a year, it would be fantastic, but it may not. Even after finishing it, there will be mods, probably new ideas from devs. F.e. I would 100% love to play Bannerlord version of Viking Conquest.

Also at some moment I will surely start a new campaign. Or the game simply may start crashing and the saves won't work as it already happened before. You just need to realize that this is not a finished game and if you still want to play it, adapt to what it has to offer in the current state. And wait until all the stuff will be fixed.
