I am here to shill a mod I really like, because it's made Warband into essentially a blend of EU4, Warband and CK2. General warband/mod thread I guess, but anyway. Shill time.
>Nova Aetus >Set in Calradia only a few centuries onward >New kingdoms and evolved versions of old ones >All with their own religions and sects of those religions >Republics, Kingdoms, Khanates and all sorts of governments >Class system where you must work to progress through classes to gain access to certain functions; commoners can't meet with lords or enter castles for example >You can work as a crafter and make a masterpiece to progress classes, start a business and enterprise of your goods >Guilds and trading economy within the existing economy >Crusades >Traits gained through events and actions which leave you with passive affects both good and bad >Several ruler systems-village/town/kingdom >Colony system; explore the new world and colonise it and fight off savages >Technological progression; Kingdoms will all start to progress in technology giving them better armour, economy, weapons and eventually shit like cannons and guns
Shits fucking cash, guys.
John Martinez
In reference to the semi confusing class system which confused an user I spoke to last night, it works as follows:
>You move up through classes with Prestige, which is the socio-economic version of renown >Gain renown by fighting good, gain prestige through good trading/property management/crafting/labouring >Gaining a weekly net profit will also increase your prestige each week
The easiest way for me was to apply for an apprenticeship at a guild for either a dyer or a blacksmith, work until I produced a masterpiece at which point I could open up an enterprise. Using profits from that to rent out property gave me the best money/prestige boost I've been able to find so far coming from a commoner start.
Building a farm/castle somewhere works too.
Just remember that if you set off and start a colony you immediately become a King and have to deal with all the shit that comes with that immediately.
Tyler Young
It sounds like the starting strategy would be vastly different from most Warband mods. How would you recommend a new player to get started?
Hunter Hill
>tfw only have gekokujo, warsword and calradia: imperial age installed
I guess I could try it.
Christian Kelly
Now this is the kind of shilling that keeps me coming to Cred Forums
Thanks OP, will check that out
Wyatt Morris
Starting strategy is VERY different. You cannot join factions or whatever until you are the right glass (gentrymen or hgiher.)
There is a wiki detailing a lot.
I would suggest as I said, heading to swadia or rhodocks (or zendar republic) as they have forests/stone quarries.
Find the lord who owns them and camp outside his fort until you find him, buy a permit. Mine as much as you can, sell the stone/any smelted ores or gems you get.
Once you build up some cash, go to a guildhall anywhere and apply for apprentice.
Apprentice works as follows: >Go to town screen >"Visit workplace" >Talk to master >Repeat each day >Each day adds 1% to your chance to produce masterpiece
Talk to guildmaster after a few days about showing him a masterpiece and you'll have a certain percent chance each time to succeed.
If you succeed, you go up a class and can build the productive enterprise of whatever you are skilled in.
Then I'd suggest saving cash and renting property to get enough prestige to join a faction because once you're a vassal you become nobility.
Protip though: When talking you barons, viscounts or Kings (or sultans/doge etc) make sure to hold B to bow before speaking to them if you aren't on the map, or you'll get an opinion penalty.
There are new troop trees for all the factions which are simply named unlike Floris, and these trees will expand as technology of their kingdom progresses.
Anthony Moore
I played that mod, user, you have my support, because i had fun. Bannerlord F U C K I N G WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Other protips:
>Press V on the map screen for a character overview which displays your Social Class, Renown, Traits and the same for all other characters

>Currently the different sects of each religion are really only for aesthetic purposes
>Don't fuck with the Nordic Union early game

Jeremiah Gray
No, Napoleonic Wars.
Christopher Baker
Oh man, are there still servers with that shit running around? I thought that stuff and the community behind it was long dead, user.
Jacob Mitchell
All right, thanks.
Mason Carter
Nope, there's a bunch of servers.
The most popular one, "Napoleonic Roleplay" still gets 200 players multiple times a day for hours.
There are some autistic admins but in general they're chill.
Hudson Miller
Nova Aetas is one of those mods that's more ambitious than good. Definitely worth playing, but the features list is better than the mod itself.
Mason Hill
>wait one year and half for the new warsword to come out >it's fucking shit The wound still hurts.
Dominic Martin
When did you last play it? Version 4.0 is out and I'm playing it right now. Most of the things I always thought to be "ambitious but never implemented" are in now.
The aztec faction is pretty sick.
For any other curious anons, factions include:
>Swadia >Noregr (broken off sect of nords) >Nordic Union (basenords) >Rhodoks >Republic of Zendar (Previous rhodocks that got rich as shit so they built a sickass harbour and became a republic under a Doge, best place to colonise from as they're nearest to new world by sea) >Sarrind Sultanate >Turguhn Horde (a horde that comes and fucks the Khergit/Sarrind's shit up if they aren't prepared) >Vaegirs >Mithradian Empire (down on it's luck Orthodox Kingdom situated in between Rhodocks and Sarrinds, not many holdings) >Aztaoc Empire (The natives of the new world, can't be joined but you can recruit the sickass aztec units like the Aztec Crocodile warrior etc)
Matthew Moore
Good job OP, you made me download it.
I hope it's worth it.
Liam Roberts
I think it is great, but if you REALLY can't be bothered checking out all the pre-noble class features, enable the cheat menu to insta join a faction as being a vassal bumps you up to the Upper Class immediately.
Matthew Green
So you can only be craftsman/noble in this? what if i want to go full Knight/mercenary and focus on fighting?
Jace Evans
Not at all, you can be full fighting-focus and that's fine.
The thing is people of different classes have different rights; you can be the greatest warrior in the land but if you're lower class they won't let your smelly peasant ass into castles/the papal palance/lords won't want to talk to you except out in the field/you can't start business or buy some property.
If you want to be a dickass night, you want to at least be middle class or even better upper class due to constant income which allows for better armour and shit.
You can roll warrior only but you just won't gain rights until you have a citizenship.
Hunter Hill
are there good combat AI mods yet? ones that make the lords use formations or something?
Jackson James
Is horse animations still broken? I'm playing acock btw.
Connor Watson
Brainybots, if I think.
Jaxon Jackson
A while ago. Is it fairly stable now?
Nicholas Ramirez
So let me see if i understand, so now instead of doing the basic beginner fightings against looters like in vanilla you now have to do social non-fighting stuff to advance? can't i just join to army or something?
Jace Gonzalez
Novas Aetas is a fucking clusterfuck. I would give it another try if it had a more unified vision.
David Martinez
hows the game of thrones mod? finished watching it this week and remembered there is a mount and blade mod for it.
Alexander Rogers
Haven't tried enlisting in an army yet, but you can at any class I believe.
You can still build an army and shit and survive of killing shit and looting alone, but for a majority of progression (vassal/kingdom etc) you need to do non-combat shit.
Like I told the other dude, you can always just just cheats to insta-noble. Or sit and mine for ages and build up enough prestige, but that'd take a while.
Yep.
It seems pretty "unified" now I guess? It doesn't feel like "check out how many features I can cram in a game" but actually feels like a new game altogether.
Getting the notification that the pope has called for a crusade and watching shit kick off was great.
Benjamin Evans

Elijah Cruz

Parker Cruz
Clash of kings? Fucking great. But it takes another 300hrs to finish this one.
The armours and weapons look good, overworld map is quite nice, not like 1257ad. The procedural map algorithm is improved, so less stupid mountainous map battles, less browny colour feel. There are quests, but they're optional. Quite good overall.
Hudson Richardson

it's been a while since I played Warband, I might give this a try. What's the best site for in-depth informations about the mod? Should I download the current version or is a huge update gonna roll out soon?
Grayson Roberts
There's a wiki for it which has most of the complex info, the rest is pretty easy to figure out.
Nah, 4.0 is good.
Robert Brown
>multiplayer above resume game completely ruined.
Cooper Lewis
1) Around 100, i am not that long into it. 2) L'Aigle, but mostly played Warsword Conquest (like the setting, but it doesnt add that many features and not that good in general) and 1866. 3) Complete the job Nikolai Ashinov sucked working at. 4) Most likely.
Isaiah Nguyen
uh... nice me me?
Jaxson Kelly
I've played this mod.
It's HIGHLY unfinished. If there's one thing I can't stand about Warband mods, it's when they're set in a completely different period but I can still find default Warband gear in the stores. Like I've played the Peloponnesian War mod which is all ancient Greek and shit, and there were fucking Great Lances mail hauberks in the store.
Matthew Sanchez
As I have said several times, the unfinished feeling is gone. It's in version 4.0. Most if not all of the gear is new and updated, and it continues to update as time progresses.
Adam Scott
Napoleonic Wars has a fucking huge online community bruh. I don't even know why user said "Warband DLC" I mean there's only one Warband DLC that actually has players.
The problem is that it's flooded with retards who are both retarded in personality and in ability to kill anything.

Nathaniel Cooper

Logan Barnes
>and ability to kill anything
I swear the reason 90% of MnB players are fucking awful is because the stupid devs leave the defaults on the easiest settings and automatic blocking, drilling new players to be awful. Then when they enter MP they end up being slaughtered. But it's partly the devs fault for thinking QUARTER DAMAGE and AUTOMATIC blocking are acceptable default settings. I bet most of Cred Forums play like this too.
Christian Jenkins
What are some mods where you can play as the notaztecs
Liam Mitchell
I feel you my dude, but it is fun to charge the enemy formation on NRP and get like 5 kills with the bayonet before being killed or cluthing it 1v4 at the end of a round because they don't know how to faint or maneuver.

Hudson Walker
Check if your install is not corrupt. Do not alt+tab or shift+tab during loading
Jackson Butler
>all those shitty ACOK trait changes
Traits in Nova Aetus are great. For example, I gained "superior administrator" trait through an event where I advised a Baron and it gives me +10% tax on towns, vassals and villages as well as an opinion bonus with other people of my rank and below.

Fuck the Peloponnesian War mod was such a letdown, as are all Roman-themed mods and China themed mods.
Suvarnabhumi Mahayuth is a pretty great S.E. Asian mod, Gekokujo is brilliant but most other non-Medieval European themed mods fall way short.
Samuel Campbell
I only ever play SP so yeah, I have like 1/2 damage and autoblocking on. Fuck getting murdered by arrows before I even get to have any fun fighting.
Lincoln Bennett
Rome at War was good because of the variety of the gear and the cool scenes like the Roman tavern, but no mod ever has managed to change up Warband's diplomacy and warfare enough to resemble a different age.
David Torres
How do i turn off that bloom effect? i installed this mod but that bloom is really annoying i can barely read stuff because of it.
Jack Wilson
Should i try Prophesy of Pendor?
Benjamin Phillips
Was it single player?
I can honestly deal with the Medieval style diplomacy if I can just have some good Roman battles with troops, weapons and armour from the period.
Andrew Sanders
So I know I'm going to get shitposted to hell and back for asking this, but how's the PS4 port? I've put hundreds of hours into Warband on PC, and it now being on consoles sounds too good to be true. I noticed the reviews are pretty low; is it actually a bad port or are game journalists just being whiny cunts about graphics again?
Adrian Martinez
Does this mod let you play as a rank and file soldier in a lord's army?
Christian Richardson
If you like it up the ass in the hopes that after 500 rapes you will be the one doing the rape, occasionally.
Jack Powell

Camden Green
Bad one. The game even still uses mouse cursor for some interfaces.
Michael Taylor
Yes. Go up to any lord and ask to join up.
No. As I said, it's generally A-OK. There's a rare late-game bug where lords can get trapped on the new world, but it can be resolved with cheatmenu.
Same here. Takes forever to load.
Another protip! If you see cannons and shit appearing in shops, buy them and keep them in your inventory and you'll have artillery during fights.
Keep an eye out for caravans stocking bullets and gunpowder because the kingdoms they go to are advancing in technology.
Bigger kingdom=faster technology growth.
If you have your own kingdom, I think you can speak to your steward about investing in technology and you'll advance.
Secret bonus protip: Khergit and Sarrinds are hard mode. Everything is set against them. If you roll those factions, make sure you are ready for crusades, constant attacks and an eventual horde.
Swadia/Nordic Union is easy mode, Papal States/Agnoic Order is medium, Noregr is kind of irrelevant for a lot of the game.
Roll Zendar if you want to roll a colonization game/build up your economy super fast.
Rhodock and Vaegir vary depending on each game.

Looking at its steam page now though, I generally don't like putting money towards early access. Do you have it?
Logan Perez
More like you will never get a good game about being a traveling merchant from one town to the next with any decent graphical presentation.
Aaron Thompson
There's basically 3 trees. They're all easy to identify and comparable to native.
They are
>Earliest (Feudal century): Basic medieval shit >Middle (16th century): Upgraded medieval >Latest (17th century) fully upgraded with very late medieval stuff including guns
Troop upgrade trees will just change as soon as you bump up a technology level. You need to put a lot of effort into advancing or you'll be left behind by other kingdoms if you have your own one.
It is really neat. In one of my games the Nordic Union managed to advance a bunch while swadia kept fighting rhodocks so was always broke as shit. Nords swamped everyone.
You do feel the world changing, as many of the new world shores are just marked as "beach" on the map until someone heads over and explores it.
Posting cap of my character in a sec.
Joseph Sanders
Can I make my own lil' rogue kingdom with vassals and stuff? Will they upgrade their own villages and towns?
John Foster
It's not hard to find a torrent of the latest version.
Anthony Williams
I saw a torrent with 0.7.08, where did you find 0.7/011?
Cameron Ward
It was MP but it started being developed for SP. It's set in early Italic expansion Rome.
Bellum Imperii is another decent Roman mod focused on SP(among the endless sea of unifinished/dropped garbage) but it's just a bunch of items dropped on a Roman map, it has decent towns but it suffers from having very shitty, boring troop trees and factions.
the issues with these mods is that they can't replicate classic eras because factions behave too much like kingdoms, with small armies running around on their own and no set piece battles.
Brandon Gonzalez
That sound quite different indeed, will give it a try thanks OP.
Oliver Adams
Yes. If you form your own Kingdom, you will manage your towns and villages in Nova Aetus's regular management system, which is a lot to take on at once.
I'd suggest trying to run a village/town yourself first then trying a Kingdom, unless you have a lot of experience in warband.
You will have to spend the coin yourself to get higher technology.
Fastest way for a new kingdom is to colonise the new world.
Zachary Cox
Guise I recently got Warband, and I love the single player, but - and maybe this is just because I'm new and bad, or that I couldn't find a server below 300 ping - the multiplayer sucks. It feels like I have 0 proficiency with any weapon, and I either have no range, or range but it takes 200 years to swing. Do you just get used to it(gud)? Or is it always like that? It doesn't feel anywhere near as clunky in SP, but I'm guessing that's because you can level up your character.
Camden Powell

Grayson Gomez
Here you can see the profit screen, which isn't too pretty since I haven't balanced my wages out well.
The income from the dyeworks fluctuates to anywhere between 500 and 900, but most income comes from buying and then renting out property in cities. There are several ranks to buy-Shacks/Homes/Mansions/Noble Mansions etc.
When building a castle, you can pay 800 to bring in 10 laborers at a time, up to 100. Each set of 10 decreases how long it will take, but they are expensive to maintain as you can see.
Will show castle building screen next, I guess.
I know, just needed a throwaway name.
Easton Miller
Castle building is simple enough. The screen here allows you to hire and fire laborers, depending on what you can afford. You can go and mine stone/cut some timber or buy tools and bring them to the site in order to speed up the process (although you'll have to buy a permit to chop or mine on a lords land.)
Anything else you guys want shown?
Probably just show some random shit otherwise.

>tfw upgraded my city's guild hall and got a bunch of prestige points
Didn't even know that happened. Faggots gon' bow to me.
Luis Young
Sounds good, downloading.
Sebastian Diaz
Here's an example of one of the events, although this one is very basic. Most of them have at least a paragraph describing what's happening.
Some have a >chance to gain trait >lose X prestige/money/piety
Some have a >70% chance to get good trait >50% chance to get bad trait
Haven't worked it all out yet.
Oh aye, Piety. Another stat alongside prestige and renown. Every 10 points of piety you have gives you +1 Intelligence and a free skillpoint.
Increase piety by praying at or donating to churches of your religion, or through events.
You can convert religions at the cost of prestige, renown and piety, and you can go full fedora and go atheist and miss out on the bonuses.
Easton Peterson
Its "early access" but its a pretty complete game. They stopped regular updates now to work on one final pre-release update focusing on revamping undead. The new perk and injury mechanic is really nice, and while for the most part injuries work against you they can be useful when a stray bolt hits a heavily-armored bandit and pierces their lung.
Nolan Torres

Brayden Brown
I just clocked 300 hours into Warband. That's an all time record for me playing a game, I usually drop them way before that.

Robert Morales
I selected option 2, which lost me 50 prestige but gave me the "Honourable" trait which gives me +5 prestige a week.
Can make back the lost prestige with a days work in the mines or when the weeks profits come in from property rents.
Should have selected jew at the start.
You can also buy holy relics and bibles and shit to boost your piety gain.
Caleb Thomas
is there a good mod that lets me respawn during the fight if I get jewed by a stray bolt so my shitty warband doesnt run away
Jonathan Cooper
I'd say it's worth twice that for the amount of play I've got out of it. I paid £15 back in 2012 and I've played well over 1000 hours.
Really though it's on sale a lot, so you could just wait and grab it in a month or so.
Christian Sullivan
Can you still cheese the sieges when on the offensive by having lots of archers and retreating to restock ammo?
Lincoln Price
You may as well play on an easier difficulty
Nathaniel King
So I read the FAQ on the forum, and apparently only the original six factions progress in technology. Which are those?
Mainly I ask because I want to play a pagan dude, but the Nords are split between Christianity and Paganism, right? Which is the faction that has technological progress? How big of a deal is a difference in religion?
Dominic Russell
A lot of mods do that, where you just play as one of your troops (whichever one is of highest rank and nearest to you)
Haven't died in this yet so dunno. I'd assume so since they have formations and shit.
Sieges are hard. Defending gives you an even bigger advantage and new structures make it harder for archers to cheese it.
Leo Watson
I've played BI. It was really disappointing, a little better than PW though.
Worst ones are the Chinese themed mods. Every one of them fucking sucks.
Carter Bennett
I remember playing a mod where you would take control of one of your troops when you die. I think it might of been that Western Hemisphere mod that focused on Pike and shot and was adequately translated from chineese

Like 440 Wars word conquest or whatever the warhammer one was Currently raiding shit and working as a merc for the dark elves I hope my skeleton enjoys it
Bentley Thompson
You misread.
Only the 6 original factions evolve/aka; the Aztecs/agonic/papal states/merchant republic might not evolve, but Swadia, Rhodocks and Sarrins and Khergit and Nords all do. Your own Kingdom will also advance if you invest in it.
The offset to this is that the Agonic order starts with some of the best castles, the Merchant Republic is rich as SHIT and has best access to new world.
Similar, but with more features. More management too, if you minmax economy and shit you can get very rich.

1.300 hours 2. Vikings reforged (seriously underrated, especially after the recent fixes) 3. To destroy the pagans and bring the holy light to Denmark 4. Yes
Nolan Davis
it does, but the lord doesn't supply you with water, so you could go weeks without visiting a town to buy water, and you get negative traits.
Charles Stewart
What a shitty lord
Josiah White
Is the loading screen supposed to be blurry? It takes forever to load too. No crash yet though.
Nolan Morris
It's on the workshop
Dominic Garcia
>Zendar The same one? The beta versions of m&b that still had Zendar + Black Knights had the comfiest music ever
Carter Rogers
A bit over 100, I'm very new to the franchise. Gekokujou, loving it. After sucking up to the Miyoshi for a long time I've finally started my own clan, and after fending off the insane amount of enemy campaigns I'm starting to conquer the nearby castles and towns. Also I'm creating my own waifu army, pictured. Obviously not.
Jayden Brown
is cRPG still active? is it noobie friendly?
Ryan Brown
Meant as reply to .
Jose James
Pretty much.
The lore implication is that the residents of Zendar all got rich as shit and started a merchant republic on the coast.

>1. How many hours have you sunk into M&B 77 hours on Steam, thats just multiplayer. I pirated it very early on, first the original M&B, and then Warband, and probably have over 500 hours. >2. What mod you're playing right now Downloading the one from the OP, Nova Aetas. >3. What your character's current goal is Try to revive the fun I used to have, because nowadays I can't enjoy M&B, couldn't since late 2015. I just burned out and need new gameplay mechanics or AI. >4. Will you still be alive when Bannerlord comes out Hope so, started a diet (again), quitting drugs (again), I may yet live to be an old man.
Dylan Parker
quick, post more warband mods!
Owen Butler
I spent so much time playing the Zendar tournaments and slamming raiders around the city as a kid.
Jose Myers
Seriously, what is this enb series resident evil 4? I don't want things in shit resolution and I already got rid of enbseries.ini. How do I get clarity?
Jason Howard
When you say Nords, do you mean the pagan nords or the Christina nords?
Anthony Rogers
I think Nordic Union, which I THINK is the christian one. Pretty sure othernords are the pagan once.
Carter Roberts
Pity that in warband/retail it is heavily implied that it was destroyed by multiple sea raiders attacksaka remaining citizens decided to simply fuck off somewhere else.
I had a BIG hopes that in Bonerlord Talewords would re-introduce it as it was in beta, that is as a neutral city.
I remember that it was one of the most legitimate ways of making money at the beginning of the gameif you didnt fought Dranton or other bullshit combatants that is
Gabriel Martin
So will having a different religion from the faction you're in really screw you over in the mod?
Juan Jackson
Yo, like what the fuck is this :DDD I can't see anymore. :DDD I am no longer in possession of my vision. :DD Thanks a lot OP :DD
Send help :D DDDD:
Jaxson Hill
Not really. It just means you can't buff your piety as easily, because you'll have to go to the churches of other factions to worship and shit, and if the lord of a city doesn't like you or your faction you can't.
Luke Brown
Yours looks way better then my hud. I have 480p going on with just the hud. Maybe the moddb page download is fucked up.
Wyatt Smith
I'm an idiot. I forgot to change my gpu settings...
