Mount&Blade: Warband is the best multiplayer medieval combat game ever made
Battle mode pitches two armies against one another, it is a proving ground for maneuvering and fighting skills...
Siege mode lets you storm the walls of your foe; a test of persistence and discipline...
But what if winning one battle wasn't everything?
What if defenders could sally forth and march on the attacker's castle?
What if you had to balance field tactics with grand strategy and resource management?

Presenting a new game mode:
RUN LASZLO!
Is this just a glorified Conquest game mode? Pretty much! But with a grander scope, higher reinforcement levels for longer games, resource system, RTS-style maps. This is what Conquest should have been.
Are you familiar with modding multiplayer_game_type_headquarters? If so PM me! I need help finishing a few things! (For example: I want an instant victory if you capture every flag. I don't want the attrition counter to fall unless you've lost territory to the enemy. Etc. If there's a stalemate, so be it! If the game takes 3 hours to get a result, then good!)

FIRST MAP
2 Teams
2 Resource locations on each side of the [impassable] river.
Players spawn inside their castle.
Third party maps strongly encouraged!
(I will try to accomodate your map making efforts better than I did in PWMOD
)
Balance them carefully! This is a competitive game mode!

FACTIONS: WHITE vs. BLUE
Spearmen specialise with the Polearm
Sergeants have the best 1h and 2h
Horsemen have dismal athletics
All spawn with free items (but not those pictured!).

SIMPLE ECONOMY
2 Resource types
Only Serfs can collect, carry, construct
Items require various combinations of resources
Resources redeemable for Denarii to buy armour and horses

FORTIFICATIONS
Designated areas (determined by the map maker)
Allows greater control of your territory
Balancing this will be tricky, I realise
They'll either be quick to build requiring timber, or slow to build for free.
Either way Serfs required for construction!
