Some questions about Warband...

[tarnus]

First off, loved M&B...having played Warband for the last 2 days however, i can't find much different, except for a few new features, I see a few bugs here and there, so I'm wondering if someone can tell me what's new.

I'm at level 14 right now, playing the Nords, there are almost no missions given by the Lords (Jarls) anymore, they also never call me to do any campaign missions...is this correct, or am doing something wrong?

Note, that the saved game i'm playing started in the beta game (D2D had the wrong version up), but i loaded it back once I had 1.1 installed.

Anyway, i feel i'm playing the same game as before (except for multiplayer), which isn't a bad thing, just was expecting a bit more...

I can't answer your first questions. I've played up to level 20 and had been wishing the Lords would keep their missions to themselves.  I was playing mostly with the Swadians, though.

As for the game feeling the same, the biggest new bits don't open up until you go to start your own faction, I think.

You can also marry people for political gain. Go try starting on your own faction if you don't like not doing anything. I got tired of not going on long campaigns where nothing happened, and if something did, I would not get anything for it. After a while, capturing a lot of castles and not getting any reward gets boring. One time i captured four castles and one city in a row and didn't get a single one of them. I didn't have any land either.

nick let me guess your faction leader took it all for himself? It's happened to me to :/
I don't mind though I'm just getting fat and rich untill I can marry a Lords daughter then we're gonna run off and start out glorious new empire.

I always seem to get the 'train some men for me' quest. I am tired of giving up top tier troops.

For a while though it looked like I would never be asked to do anything.
