Player faction and companion vassals capturing land.

[Synel]

I found similar issues in the forum but it wasn't quite the same. Search function didn't turn up anything specific either.

So I made my companions all vassals of my kingdom and my Marshal, Lezalit, went on the war path and took both Narra and Malayaburg Castle (nice job Lezalit.) But, rather than having the choice of whom receives the fief or even being informed of it (aside from the message in the lower left), the lord of the opposing faction still retained ownership. It was listed as belonging to my faction, but I don't receive any taxes, cannot give it to any of my lords and it pretty much remains useless.

I don't mean to sound arrogant but I'm finding more issues like this the longer I play... particularly with the player faction. Are these bugs or do the features just need to be panned out a bit more?

I get the feeling they just didn't bother to finish Warband before releasing it. They did pretty much the same thing with the original Mount and Blade I think. Pretty damn unethical.
