There, its bin changed now 
Ogrecorps 说:In response to the "no more rambo" posts I reply with this: naked, alone, and on foot I have twice now killed 20 armed bandits with only a sword. Only the second time did I get screenies though because I didn't expect the first adventure to work. No cheats, tweaks, or mods of any type were used.

I have 18 AGI and 6 Athletics with nothing to encumber me. I ditch the horse at the beginning of every battle because it doesn't corner like I need it to and I can't efficiently fight off of it with a stabbing-only weapon. The key to all of this is speed: of turning, running, attacking. I have a fast weapon meaning in melee I have the advantage. I never run towards them unless they are reloading and then once within about 10 ft or so they switch to a melee weapon and I kill 'em. I pick a flat area so I don't ever get slowed down on a hill and run back and forth in front of them as they edge closer and kill the ones that come close for hand to hand. After a couple minutes there are only a few shooters left so the time between shots is long enough to run in there and kill one or at least make him put his gun up.
Never, never, never charge directly at loaded firearms. Never stop moving. Concentrate on speed in all things. I even put the lance up so I had 1 less encumbrance.
Now, some of you will be saying that this isn't "going Rambo" because I'm not charging straight into the whole group of them and laying about me with a blade and I guess that's true but then again, wading in and laying about is more of a Terminator thing whereas picking them off whilst half naked with only a blade is VERY Rambo (watch the first movie in each series, you'll agree). The slow and innaccurate firearms make WF&S a face-hugger's wet dream. I've tried it in Warband (I have a female woad raider mercing for the Nords) and the rate of fire of the ranged units there just put too many missiles in the air. If you stop once you get stuck. Even fighting looters is a problem with no armor or shield.
Point is, well, I don't know what my point is. You can't play WF&S like Warband so you can't compare the two. If you are going to compare, compare it to any mod with early firearms.



QuailLover 说:A lot of people view this as a Warband expansion, when in fact it is a spin off game. If you want to label it as an expansion then it is an Expansion of the ORIGINAL Mount and Blade game.

PROTOZ 说:Rambo character & empire building was the only thing Mount & Blade had going for it; but since WFAS took away both of those features the game has become a very very very poor imitation of Creative Assembly's Total War series.
And no matter how much time you invest in purchasing the best equipment for your character, one musket shot is still going to kill you. So equipping your character with better armor become obsolete in WFAS as well.

What the heck? Total War? Are we pointing and clicking units? Are we moving in turn based campaigns?
There are no similarities between them. At all. So stop taking terrible analogies from other idiots just like you who rather then use their brains to solve problems, use them as little as possible to make up terrible arguements to justify your in competence. I bet you were one of the idiots who hated warband and called it a bandwagon that would die out soon.

Erm. Have you ever fought in close quarters? If you did so it helps. And my armor saved me twice from muskets at 73 difficulty so either you are an idiot who charges totally exposed or you have a damage multiplier.
Reddeming features:
Different!!!!!
Also stop assuming $hit on my behalf, i've stated that warband is a much better game and i didn't say anything negative about warband.I bet you were one of the idiots who hated warband and called it a bandwagon that would die out soon.

Jarl Jorg 说:In my opinion I think F&S is great and easily worth the $15 I spent. I would purchase another product from the guys who made it as well as Taleworlds again. Thanks much to them for taking the time to make it.
My favorite part? The early firearms.
