Bought the whole series on Steam when it was on sale. Best deal ever, such value and great fun! Started out playing NW multi-player with a bit of F&S mixed in, but soon realized that M&B might be worth a shot. It sure was, although at day 750+ certain game features became somewhat irritating and I decided to see what improvements Warband offered.
It does seem (so far) that some of those irritating features were addressed, although I'm not so sure I like the new map yet. I find lancing to be harder in Warband, which is unfortunate as it was my favorite method of fighting. So, it's day 75 and I'm leveling a small party of 4 heroes and 8 troops. I've yet to swear fealty to any king.
My main issue is that I can't find Firentis anywhere. I believe his tavern spawn is random, but restricted to Swadia. I have searched over and over for him including other faction towns without luck. Is there some trigger to get him to show up, is one of my party heroes somehow keeping him from spawning in?
My current hero party includes - Marnid, Matheld, Borcha, and Jeremus. The first 3 were in my Mount and Blade party (as was Firentis). Jeremus is the only one of this bunch that I plan to get rid of.
As to leveling and equipping my heroes, I've found good luck with sea raiders. They are good money when sold off and drop pretty decent loot for equipping heroes or selling at market.
Any suggestions appreciated.
