Mount & Blade Warband - E097 - Getting Back the Companions

[kamazuri]

I know this is months to late, but isn't there an easier way to rejoin with lost companions? :x

Maybe someone should make a mod about it like having your minister sending out messengers to the corners of calradia to ask companions to rejoin you, similar to when they get back from missions...

It seems rather unfitting for a queen to ride around the country trying to get her 'trusted subordinates' back, just to find out they have moved to the other side of her (future) country again... :)

[TheZemalf]

@kamazuri Very true. It makes sense that companions would meet in a place they've agreed in advance in case they get separated. Such a mod, if it hasn't been done yet, would be great addition to something like Diplomacy for example.

[TheMahjohng]

i didn't quite understand why you were keeping your choice of companions as it is in this episode. tbh i loved your first companion set up. they all got along well and did their jobs well :/

[TheZemalf]

@TheMahjohng I think in this one I couldn't find everyone, because they were all over the place and I settled for the ones I managed to find. The companion setup I have later, when I find everyone, is to train at least Baheshtur and Firentis to be vassals, possibly Rolf, Matheld and/or Lezalit as well - and 9 companion setup built around those five stays together as long as there's some action and their morale is high even that there's some quarrel going on

[omrikkasl]

is there a way to make the trainer train more then 7?

[TheZemalf]

@omrikkasl Since the constable/recruiter/trainer is part of Diplomacy mod, I'd think it can be modded to train more, but they've just selected that. And there might be other mods that do that too, don't know. For me, the trainer is just a bonus and little addition to the game, recruiter is what makes life easier - I can always train the troops myself quite fast with trainer skills, if I want to and have little time for it

[FurstyCheesegrater]

Also, I think your Sarranian Warhorse might be Lame. :(

[FurstyCheesegrater]

In future Zemalf, I think you should think twice about exiling lords, because I think that exiling raises your Contoversy.

[Teamfailz]

can you link me to 1.134 diplomacy thread?

[DeathSh0ts]

I had a battle with 73 Sarranid Mamelukes vs 68 Swadian Knights.... I won with just me standing :)

[Keyeper]

that tri-lance battle was.... quite...

amusing.. XD 3 people sitting on horse back poking each other to death.

[TheZemalf]

@Keyeper Yeah, given that lance tournaments were the "main event" in real tournaments - two knights/horses charging, the clash of the lances against shields and all that - they've always been a bit disappointing in M&B.

[kid29a]

Ooo you got much better at melee from the beginning of the series :)

[TheZemalf]

@kid29a I don't know, maybe it's just thatViolet has gained more health and skills :)

[IMakeVidsAboutRS]

Rivacheg only has like 160 troops!

[TheZemalf]

@IMakeVidsAboutRS Aye, although "only" 160 means I need at least 320, preferably 500 to take it when the time comes - very unlikely to do it with Violet alone. Those Huscarls are so hard with their shields blocking each and every arrow and bolt I sent their way.

[Jukaine]

Why do you have jeremus in his seperate group?

[TheZemalf]

@Jukaine Jeremus is the main medic and healer (surgery, wound treatment and first aid) and skills are active only if he is not unconscious. So I've given him "Support" group that I can order to stay back and not attack anyone. This way he can save lives in battle as troops can get knocked out instead of killed with surgery skill. And I also place him at the bottom of the party list, so in big battles he's the last one to join - in small ones he doesn't even join and just heals.

First yay

[TheZemalf]

@omegaguy6 If you don't have anything (good) to say, it's best to say nothing at all. Comments like this are next to spam and I don't like'em. I appreciate the thought, but next time leave the comment counting out of it.

@TheZemalf

hey i don't know if you have got any of my suggestions but first of all i want to say i love your series and second i wana say that if u aren't at war take all the recruits u can into ur party and wait in khudan it gets you troops quicker

[TheZemalf]

@poklok44 I've received many suggestions with "train more troops", but I'll say it again. My first priority is always to have main party trained all the way to elite soldiers. And second, some elite backups for them.

In garrisons, I'd like to train core troops up a bit, but training the elites I want takes quite a long time, and also the wages are very cheap for untrained recruits/villagers and go up 8-10 times as soon as I train them, so I don't even want to train them to much.

@TheZemalf

Okay but great videos i hope you keep uploading them for a while because its an amazing series :D
