It would be a great help if the devs can add an option to forcefully attack a party.
For sure its better to wait till they die and then fight them. They are useless troops that will almost do nothing in the battlefield but if they survive the battle, they'll only steal from you loot. Siding with them against the enemy instead of waiting and going solo will still drop relations with the enemy, and you wont get any relation gain with those villagers or their kingdom as that relation is stated by the war and both kingdom's relations, not you.
There is an option to forcefully attack most minor factions. I think its fine as it is, but you can feel free to suggest things like these, but 95% sure this wont go in.
It's considered grossly overpowered.YnØs said:Hey, has the bodyslide option already been suggested ? I really like it, it makes the battles less boring when you get knocked since you never stop fighting, plus you have the occasion to test your troops.

sher said:Crossbows are great as they are. Personally I use archers only in defensive sieges and in form of horse archers, and even in that field Falcon Talons are amazing troops. Crossbows all the way, for troops, and for low strength companions, and companions who can't spare skill points.
mirrorflame said:Is it possible to add a Troop tree for Monks/Pilgrims? When I see them I remember the Monk troops from Shogun 2 Total War. It would be cool if they could be upgraded into a glass cannon but with strict limit or under tough conditions.
Also adding a few more orders for the other nations besides the Empire [who have 4 now] would be great. Especially Ravenstern and the Fierdvain. They really need some new troops even Elite or Unique ones for some of the lords like the D'shar Djaha Archers. It will make the game more interesting.
Coupling this with the previously posted/stated increase in Blunt weapons for mounted/field combat and used by troops like Heretics or Fierdvain, if we can add a few more crossbows as well it would be great. A lot of people like crossbows [including me] and sadly we have to switch to Archery due to them not being able to keep at high/endgame level gameplay. Archery is fun ofcourse but it would be nice to variety. Making the Arbalest available would be a good step as well.
For armor, more variety of light armor like the Brigadine which have low weight and decent defense would be nice. It can help switch up the gameplay. There are an amazing selection of heavy armors and there is no need to improve on that I believe.
For weapons, Axes and short Polearms like War Spears/Light Lances really need more love. From the mid to end stage gameplay, swords become the uniform choice of weapons [Rune Weapons, Noldor Weapons and so on] and it's a bit boring. Having more axes/thrusting polearms/blunt weapons would be great.
