Can a mercenary become a lord who can get a fief ???

[Galiathus]

After the reunification of the empire, the secondary family can also grant the fiefs like the main family ??? Are these not mercenaries ????

The 3 family is Beni Zilal,Forest People and Ghilman from left to right

Interesting. I did not realize minor factions could get fiefs!

There's a bug in the game, when you succesfully convince any mercenary leader to join your kingdom, they join not like mercs, but like any other lord, e.g. they become a part of the kingdom. I did this a few times, the King started giving them fiefs, but they began deflecting very often - today they are part of the Empire and tommorow they're siding with Khuzaits (and so their granted fiefs).

Maybe this case is something similar.

And you can't buy them back after you give them the land, you can only recycle the land by voting

So all we can do now is wait for TW to fix this bug?

You may try and propose to expel the clan from the Kingdom (you can do this through "Kingodm->Clans->Choose a clan you'd like to expell->Propose). But for me, in many cases, these clans have almost always 100% support of the nobility, so nobody wants to expel them. But if you do succeed, chances are, they'll become a regular mercenary band again.

You can give them land and influence, but they'll leave eventually taking the land with them. I don't think it was intended to be able to give them land, could be wrong.

It may be, that in the future, when the rebellions mechanic will be implemented, they'll be able to try and create their own Kingdoms. But, personally, I'd love to see some lairs of those mercs. Especially Wolfskins.

That would be pretty sweet, would love to see minor factions rise up to become major powers!

It happened in past that Battania gave Zeonica to Wolfskins after I charmed to switch sides. On encyclopedia Is listed as both vassal and at war with Battania. Wolfskins are still loyal.

But with own kingdom I can't do the same things, all fiefs are for me and no idea how to give to minor factions. If I go in execution mode against lords then minor factions would be fine vassals since they seem less affected by relation loss.

Nobles, small camp, mercenaries, give nothing to the latter two.

This would be pretty awesome actually, if there were small castles or whatever for the minor factions.

As mentioned earlier can confirm that it's a bug where mercenaries unintentionally become vassals of said kingdom.
