So, i have the Empire again, in my new playthrough, confined in Shieldstorm and i beat every lord they have every day and put them in prison in Laria.
Highest difficulty btw. The AI is so retarded they're not able to form a party. They go out patrolling with 80 troops when they see
me nearby with 360. And i put them in prison. They spam ransom requests. One every 24h at least i think. And i think that's a pathetic
way of cheating. Cause they have no limit on money for that. We could do that forever if i were weaker. Ofc i can end them in a second if i wanted.I will do that once i got all the decent lords from them. But it's cheap and pathetic and it doesn't help the stupid AI. They just go back to prison once they get out
of Shieldstorm. Just my feedback. If you could refuse the ransom without penalty it wouldn't feel like cheating. But as such they spam it and it's cheating.
I know why there's that honor loss in there, to prevent you from reducing a faction to very few active lords. But it doesn't help if you already know the game (the mod). Cause all their lords were in prison 2 (!) days after they declared war, before they could even mobilize.I have pathfinding 14 total and i field cavalry archers only army(HA and dshar stalkers). And surgery 14. I can do 10 battles in 10 different places in the same day and winn them all
. And i got all their fiefs in the 1st week. All but 1. After that all all they have is cheap cheating.
I camp outside their only castle (Shieldstorm) for book reading. And still they come out with 80 troops to do patrools.When they see me there with 360
army.
Pendor has those ideas of honor and moral code that it tries to impose. Like you get a lot of bad things for being bad, no, you gotta be "The chevalier of Pendor". But the thing is there's so much cheating in the mod for the AI that i feel like fighting against the scum of Pendor
. I'm winning without problems anyway so it's not a rant from someone losing. It's sad that the AI is so bad. I wonder if it's better in Bannerlord. I hope it's better. I have the game on steam but haven't played it yet, i don't wanna try it to early and be disapointed.
