My Marnid is a medieval noob:P

I outfit all my heroes with lances/spears... I find that they tend to kill thing much more often when outfitted thusly, especially when facing other cavalry.
 
I made marnid and borcha horse archers once and you know what? THEY KICKED ASS!!!! they shot loads of the enemys dead as the black kerghits would then still owned with the sword. However i needed a lil help from the leveling cheat just to make them suitable. They are ok at around lvl 35
 
I pulled it off. Marnid is level 38 in my game plate armor great helmet, the works. He lost a 1 on 1 foot bout with a forest bandit.
 
My Marnid is a show-off.  I was riding down a Swadian Man-at-Arms, my heart soaring with bloodlust, a hair away from pinning him with my lance, when all of a sudden, he plunged off his horse in a spray of blood directly in front of me. 

Marnid, from halfway across the battlefield had dropped the Swadian with a bolt from his sniper crossbow right through the neck.
 
:lol:

Sumpter for breakfast, saddle horse for lunch, warhorse for supper....dunno what goes next :mrgreen:
 
LOL you lot are making me laugh to the point of me dying. anyway marnid and borcha have never shot me before.Only my vagier "marksman" *cough* my ass *cough* .
 
Ive got borcha with the best reinforced plate armor and a watered steel scimitar he kills quite frequently

Marnid on the other hand, never listens to my orders and has killed noblemen on two occasions.
 
If you develop B&M as patiently as you develop your personal character, then you will have a fighting force up to whatever standard you set for yourself.

If B&M are really as useless as many peple say, I find myself wondering why they don't just cut them loose permanently and fill their slots with something presumably more useful. Even Marnids' paltry inventory slots do not justify maintaining his presence if he is as incompetent as some claim.

I presently have a Borcha who [which?] for a few points difference mirrors my own character and performs with about the same effect [mounted archer]. The Marnid in this crew is heavy cav/maces - basically a prisoner generator. The trick - for me - is to find out how much to give [and take] from these two until you get the performance you expect. The AI isn't perfect, but it is consistent. Sometimes less weapon capability, sometimes no shield, these are the things that it takes to keep these guys operating in the parameters that you set. I rarely see either of them, and they rarely screw up. This is a case where a lot of micromanagement IS required and does return on investment.

 
A very good point. I find that Borcha and Marnid make excellent horse archers, and if I join them we amke an ndestructible team, as long as we have some footmen who charge in and keep enemy cavalry off of us long enough to kill some of them.
