So the Mount and Blade game mechanics in truth have been in the works now for.... a very very very very long time. I know that at least some effort has to have been made to balance this...
Is there any counter to cavalry other than your own even larger cavalry force in Bannerlord? It was pretty depressing getting knee deep in my first real merc campaign between the southern and western empires with battles of 1600 men and.... The infantry was just utterly useless against imperial cavalry. Whoever had more won. Full stop, end of story. No point in actually undertaking a battle if you are outclassed in cavalry.
And I don't want to play like I did with warband where I just get Vlandian cavalry, cheese spam it and watch them ride in circles the enemy always falling over himself and unable to do anything.
I liked dividing my infantry into corps and running flanking maneuvers in bannerlord but that seems to be only for minor petty battles amongst idiot factions that lack cavalry. I want to be able to play strategy, get to do something myself. Have some fun not shout "charge!" then initiate literally 45 minutes of riding in circles...
