Witch Hunts, Dragons, Jousting and Brothels!

[TMP3z]

I would love to see Witch Hunts! You can't have an authentic medieval game without killing some pagans!

I know this is supposed to be realistic but you can't have knights and not kill dragons for heaven sake. Damzels in distress do happen to go hand in hand with dragons and the knight theme. Rapunzel anyone?

I would also like to see authentic jousting tournaments. And pikes / lances need to be fixed, they need to have bonus damage vs. horses. And to be able to ground the pike to kill all but the most heavily armored horses that charge at you.

And the most important addition would have to be brothels. A tired and weary adventurer needs some place to 'relax' and have a good time. It would also be good for the economy, they would make alot of income (mostly from me) which the king would tax. The king would definitly side with me, anyone who disagrees will be beheaded.

Other little things I would like to see include:

Decapitation. (self explanitory)

A skill perhaps or maybe even a bonus to staffs (since they are useless now) that give you a rare chance to block an arrow. Perhaps the higher agility the greater the chance?

Taking a sword or shield from a fallen foe or ally in battle. In the tournement it really bothers me when I get stuck with a weak pike when theres a nice two handed sword just an arms reach away on the ground.

An easy way to tell if you hit an oppents horse like a spurt of blood or a neigh. Perhaps even the horse writhing in pain?

Skull caps should be easily knocked off with a well placed hit.

Special moves like a cyclone attack for example.

Knock people down with the shield.

With high Charisma you could perhaps talk your way out of being robbed or attacked in the world map.

Gotta have fire arrows!

And if your in a pickle (or have no honor) an option to throw dirt and blind the opponent.

Chance to be evil and kill farmers and peasents and...

Be a wanted criminal and have a price on your head!

Edit: I think water is also an important factor for an army. Your horses need to drink and maybe if you want to take a break from being in the dark ages dare I say.... take a bath? But seriously there should be another slot in the character screen where you can put water which would be consumed at the same rate as food. And for a boost of morale you could put some Ale or Wine there instead.

Next time read the stickies and other threads before posting.

Of course i answered most of it already!

There is no religion in M&B so no pagans. Also there is no Inquisition. So no Witch hunts, also there are basicly no witches then! *sighs*

May be mad as a mod of course.

Dragon=Fantasy=No

Already discussed in several threads.

And the most important addition would have to be brothels. A tired and weary adventurer needs some place to 'relax' and have a good time. It would also be good for the economy, they would make alot of income (mostly from me) which the king would tax. The king would definitly side with me, anyone who disagrees will be beheaded.

There are more important things, so only real way to have that anytime soon/at all would be a mod.

Most wont happen, is discussed already in other threads, is only thinkable as a mod, or is already able to do with mods.

''Also there is no Inquisition''
unfortunately...
but not strictly true, there are inquisition knights that are not currently included in the game, bu the data is there, like antler knighs + stuff.
but most of my answers would be the same as Lu Bu's , with 4000 forum users, its more important than ever to search before posting.

''An easy way to tell if you hit an oppents horse like a spurt of blood or a neigh. Perhaps even the horse writhing in pain? ''

the horse does neigh, there is a spurt of blood, and the right type of hit makes the horse rear .

What happend to the ruthless locknig of threads? Just wondering.
Lu Bu did a good reply here.

Thank you!
Lost-Lamb locked several threads a few hours ago, but there are only few mods. So till this is locked, if its locked, it will take some time.

At least nobody asked for a free key in quite some time!

Oh, could be because I turned off pixel shaders since I only have a Geforce 2. When I'm firing a volley of arrows I don't see any effect on the horse it just dies when it feels like it. I also have my volume up high, the effects aren't very audible.

Now that I think about it I don't hear any clangs of swords or gallops of horses...

To expand on what I was saying about special attacks, I think it should be very difficult to get. Like you can only acquire one if you get 1000 in your weapon proficiency.

At least one ultra rare or final boss Dragon. Dragons are just as likely to have existed as bigfoot, aliens, the lockness monster or Richard Nixon.

Like 1000 in long sword would give you the cylcone. For bows you could shoot 2 arrows. Crossbow it could pierce right through the guy and hit the person behind him. For polearms and such thats how you could get that grounding pike ability. For throwing perhaps being able to throw with both hands or increases the stack size.

And thanks for the encouragement Lu Bu, after your wonderful remarks I'll be sure to contribute more.

There is a Sound Mod, which kind of improve the sounds of the games and add more variation http://forums.taleworlds.com/viewtopic.php?t=6114&highlight=sound
here the link to it. I know i´m probably to nice lol.

Combo Moves was suggested today before!
And i say again i dont think they would suit with the current rest of the game.

If you find someone who models you a Dragon, then surely their would be a mod But first new animations would be needed, which is currently impossible.

And no problem.

 

[Sir Saladin]

Maybe the dragon could use the horse model. Put scales and wings on it and give it deadly fire breath, it would make you laugh so hard that you have a hard time fighting it. Brothels should come later after the kings and lords get better housing then those prison cell looking rooms they currently hang out in.

 

[Lu Bu]

Lol i even laugh when i just imagine such a creature!

 

[Sir Prince]

THE DONKEY DRAGON!
It's a must for a joke mod.

 

[The Pope]

Slaying dragons is plain retarded. It would be impossible for a single human being without a very large gun, and it's the worst of all RPG cliches.

 

[Lu Bu]

Not if you have the almighty magic weapon, which you obtained from some old evil wizard who lived in a cave deeeep under the earth.

Or something like that, cant remember it exactly, the story was told thousand of years ago!

You know there are always silly excuses for such things.

So if a dragon would be modded, be on guard

 

[The Pope]

Seeing as dragons are meant to live for thousands of years you'd think they'd thought of that and got magical defenses of their own. Roasting wizard after wizard until one volunteered to help should work.

I always dreamed of a game such as this where you could kill a dragon. Mount & Blade has the best melee combat system. (Well second to Rune) It would be an awesome experience to kill a dragon with this engine.

I do fully agree that it is nearly impossible, but perhaps you could have a quest to get an item to help you in slaying the dragon. I'm not talking anything magical cause in my opinion it wouldn't fit right in this game. Then again nor would a dragon. Then again I'm talking ultra rare spawn, easter egg, final boss, or super long quest to get to teh dragon.

Anyways if you ever saw the movie Dragon Slayer (one of my all time favorites) the Blacksmith girl goes into the cave and finds some dragon scales which she fashions into a shield. And obviously a dragon would have to be immune to fire or he would fry himself everytime he sneezed or burped. You could use this shield to get close enough to it to kill it, or better yet get enough scales to make a whole armor set.

Lizards shed remember?

 

[The Pope]

It still wouldn't help. If its outside, it can fly. It would be way too fast to hit with anything that has any chance of hitting it and could just drop boulders on you. If it was in a cave, it could just back down the cave flailing its tail and there would be no way to hurt it without a lightsabre. Its just too big and has too thick scales for anything infantry portable to have any chance of hurting it. How many crocodiles have been killed by rabbits? Maybe about a hundred particularly brave knights would have a chance against one, but not individuals.

Dragonslaying is stupider than chainmail bikinis.

Mmm chainmail bikinis *drool*.

Too fast my foot. Birds aren't that fast to begin with, unless they are diving. And we're talking giant lizard here... If it flys you can use a bow with a big friggin' arrow (cue the hobbit). And if its in the cave thrashing its tale around you could play jump rope or then again give it one hell of a suppository with that big friggin' arrow.

End of discussion.


Edit: Just had one great idea! When a dragon opens its mouth to breathe fire can't you just shoot an arrow into his throat? Don't tell me it will melt, arrows travel too fast.

 

[Lost-Lamb]

Locked for the reasons explained above. And its HIGHLY doubtful that dragons will be in vanilla EVER
