Relationship with lords

Users who are viewing this thread

First of all I've to excuse me if my english is bad ... I hope that you can understand me  :mrgreen:

I think that the modification of the value of the relationship with lords doesn't work properly, for example:

- A friendly lord with 50 troops is attacked by an enemy lord with 150 troops. I rush to help the friendly lord with my legions and togheter we strike out the enemy. I get only a +1 in relationship ...
- A castle of one of my friendly lord (with only 34 troops as garrison) is attacked by 383 enemy troops (  :shock: ): I enter in the castle and prepare my 150 troops for the siege: after few fights all of the enemy are defeated and the castle is save. I get only a +1 relationship  :eek:
- I help a lord with 100 troops to kill some bandits (5  :mrgreen: ). I get +1 relationship!

I think that the modification of the relationship have to consider the Expected outcome of the battle:
- if I help a lord that have the 90% of the possibility to being killed and I rescue him, I think that I can get more than 1 point of relationship!
- if I defend a castle that would otherwise be captured by enemies I think that I can get more than 1 point of relationship
- if I help a lord with 100 troops to kill some bandits (5) I think that the lord can be angry with me: I think he is so weak as not to go it alone? 0 or -x points of relationship.
 
there's definitely soem sort of balancing problem here.

agreed.

I think there could potentially be two levels of relationship with a lord (short and long term). If you save him from imminent death he loooves you in the short term but the effects arent as strong in the long term.

ok that doesnt make much sense bt im trying to think of a way that would work
