for native and some others, raiding towns, pick a specific town or two to raid for faction(s) so you always have a steady raiding supply and don't end up raiding every single town causing you to later on in the game, unable to recruit from them.

Thou shall count to 3 thou shalt not count to 5 5 is to many, 2 is not enough, 3 is the number thou shall cast the holy hand grenade

Sorry for double post but i actually have advice now. To get money super fast and not to have to pay for good armor fight the Vaegirs. start with patrols and help the Nords and you will be rolling in cash. Just watch out for javelins and bring piercing weapons

 

[Matthieu]

Vaegirs are easy-peasy.

What kind of weapons are piercing weapons?

 

[Steffenximus]

What kind of weapons are piercing weapons?

Weapons with xxp damage, where xx is the value and p means piercing

 

[Orion1]

Looking for specific weapons that are piercing

 

[Matthieu]

Almost all swords are piercing if you stab with it.

Manhunter's Short Polehammer is my fav piercing weapon. That and Double-barreled flintlock pistol.

Were do you get the Manhunters Short Polehammer do you have to just find it randomly going from town to town?

You just have to search in towns. It might take some time but you'll find it.

You can also slaughter adequately ranked groups until they drop it.

Another piece of advice when in a huge battle make sure to try to aim for the horseman instead of a horse. If you are like me you are gonna change through horses like a girl changes clothes. I had to use like 25 in a 1500 vs 5500 battle. And for God's sake if a horse is just milling about don't shoot it. It had hope, it had dreams. I used to ride this bay who aspired to play the role of Sarah Jessica Parker in her documentary.

If you're on foot, it's much better to aim for the horse. If you try to aim for the rider, you will probably miss it and still hit the horse or just miss completely. You don't want to make such a mistake.

If you are on foot and aiming for horse you probably don't care about getting another horse. I should clarify that if you rock on foot it doesn't matter but if you are say mercenary archer try to get back on a trusty steed

There's a limit to how much you can rock on foot when 300 condottieres are coming for you...

That's why trees were invented

If you're alone vs 300 knights you're doing it wrong.
