Recruit
Hello everyone. I'm just joined here. And I'm just started to play Mount And Blade. I bought it 5 days ago. I still dont understand mutch of thigs, but i know basics. So, i played as Swadian, and I have prety much Towns and Castles, and i want to ask, can i be a King, and have my own vassals? Because now I am a marshal of Swadia, so i wonder am I able to be King :smile: ?
 
No, you'll not be able to progress beyond being a Lord in the current game. However, in the Warband expansion (due out third quarter this year) it will be possible to have Lords join your faction and become your vassals. In a video interview I saw a week or so ago, Armagan said it would be difficult, but certainly possible.

Thank you for info. Hm... So what's the game purpose? Because you cant rule too many town, King not allow that, so i will fight and thats it :smile: ? Offcourse its still fun :wink: This is the first RPG that i realy like it, and i didnt played so interesting game in last few years ;>
 
Its not really an rpg and there are mods that let you be king, like Sword of Damacloes. or you could go masterless warlord and take castles without belonging to a kingdom

My version is 1.003 Please recommend some iteresting mods which dont ruined the game.
 
If you renounce your allegiance to your king, you can keep the castle you just got, but will lose your existing ones, and you have to take them back. Either you can be a solo lord, or join a rebellion.

Get mods. Native only lasts so long.

Edit: Update to 1.011 and get some mods like 100 year war. Or download .808 and get The Last Days. I still play TLD.

There are a few possible ways to get around this before the expansion is released.

1) Become a Rebel Warlord. To do this, you'll need to either renounce your oath to your king (talk to him for the option), or start a new game and not join a kingdom to begin with. In order to "declare war" on a faction and besiege their cities and castles, you'll first need to attack a caravan or Lord party that belongs to that kingdom. Once you own land as a rebel, it's possible that other kingdoms will declare war on you, and it'll be impossible to sue for peace unless you join another kingdom that you're not at war with.

As I implied with the previous sentence, it's possible to keep this Warlord status as a temporary measure. Attack and capture whatever lands you want the most, and then join one of the other kingdoms. Your fiefs will remain in your possession and join that faction just as you do (ie, if you join the Vaegirs your settlements will turn green, but still belong to you). If you later renounce your oath to that faction, I think you'll lose your lands, but I'm not 100% sure.

2) Start a claimant quest. When you sign on with one of them and start the corresponding rebellion, you become a special type of Marshall. You will have the standard Marshall options (like giving orders to Lords that join you), along with the ability to choose who gets control of a particular fief that your rebellion just captured. Be aware that Lords who voluntarily join you will keep their previous lands, and will get upset if you award a lot of land to yourself, and give them little or none (the Claimants can get angry over this as well).
