Hi Everyone,

Different terminology for the same thing.
Now surrender or die, make your choice.

Vanilla is a term used for Mount&Blade game, that means the one which was out before Warband.

Vanilla is used to refer to original Mount & Blade game(the one that came before warband). While Native is the mod that is shipped with Warband or Vanila purchase.

When you say it is a mod for the warband purchase, is it official? Or is it a private mod? Cause when you say mod it is a modification of the original right?

Native is the ordinary, non modded version of Warband. It is official.

Lol. I meant the module that comes with warband purchase, ie, non-modded official version of Warband.
Just think of warband as a DVD Player and modules as the various discs that you insert in DVD player. Without these modules , Warband is nothing. Native is the basic module that comes with Warband purchase and that u can play. Every other module uses Native as its base to develop new features.

Vanilla is ice-cream.

Native is not.

That means Vanilla is better than Native.

Solved.
