Female Lords mod

[Remmik]

Is there any mod to greatly reduce the number of female lords in the game?

 

[stevehoos]

Look out below lol....


Anyway, there will be historical mods soon.

You can mod them out with a bow and arrow to the face.

Best I care to give you is this misogyny mod. Note that it's intention is to encourage the girl power fantasy of showing them sexists what for.

Lets just wait for a historical mod instead.

Like while i understand why people feel they want to remove them (histoical point of view) this game at the end of the day is low level fanstay set in a non real world based on medieval times in which the devs whose game it decided to add female lords.

However there are likely mods out there you just need to search for them

There aren't any -- or they are packaged together with another change.

It isn't even really that hard to do; there are already checks for gender that you can re-purpose to make sure women don't lead parties except for the clan leaders. I'm not sure what happens if you exclude females entirely because there are starting parties with female leaders but my hunch is it just causes the game to crash.

i mean one of the leaders is a woman so you would have to force a vote to remover her (idk if theres another way that is easier) but yeah i see what you mean

If I remember correctly from a dev, warrior womens are not common in game... in fact there are just a few.

He explained that all clans should have a number of active parties, if all men of the clan are captured/dead then non-warrior woman start to lead paties due the consecuences of having just a few on the map are really bad for the clan/game balance.

In fact when you capture a non-warrior woman if you free her the game show a statement like "I free you because you are not a warrior" or something like that.

So keep in mind that if you mod the game to exclude women it might hurt the game balance.

It can be easily modded to avoid any balance issues. Just have to make sure about balancing when you replace out the women from combat. This is the least of the work the Historical overhauls have cut out for them.

+1, I'm much more bothered by the inclusion of tartan kilts than I am by Mesui and Siga.

It's a video game, however people want to have fun with it is up to them. Fantasy or historical.

I write this in support of neither side but have you played Warband before?

Controversial thought: Warband was just as unrealistic as Bannerlord, for the opposite reason.

It could vary from family to family, but needless to say women were not universally restricted to wedding fodder in medieval times. It's also worth noting that generally, whenever a sexism vs classism conflict took place, classism won. (A nobleman probably could get away with pushing around a noblewoman, but if a peasant man tried to push around a noblewoman, he'd probably get hanged.)

If you ask me, an actually realistic system would be where men and women could in theory occupy similar positions, but women would have an opinion penalty, necessitating them working twice as hard. (Similar to PC women in Warband, but applied to NPCs as well.)

yeah like as you said the system could be overhauld and in some cases either kingdoms allow women freely to become clan leaders and party leaders while others may be opposed to it since that would be a more reaistic aproach while still following the low level fantasy side of the game

Women never led troops in combat in medieval Europe, there isn't actually any argument to be made for this other than "it's a videogame and we felt like it."

I haven't be able to find any of them though, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction :p

Not true, actually. Joan of Arc says hi.

Also, she was not the first woman to serve in the army or even serve as commander (a number of widows fought after their husbands died). Her youth was her claim to fame.

Ultimately, while it is true that the sexism of the middle ages meant there were less women soldiers and commanders than men, they were far from nonexistent.

So again, while it is true that Bannerlord's equality is unrealistic, Warband was sexist to the point of being equally unrealistic. Simply making it harder, but not impossible, for women (PCs and NPCs alike) to gain power in this game is what actual realism would look like.
