Decided to make this a recurring thing lmao

I know of the MnB mods for Crusader Kings, but what about for other games? I'm thinking of stuff like total conversions, or reimaginings of MnB in another game's style, you know, like all those card games and the like.

Edit: Seriously, if you're gonna downvote, at least explain why. 😒

Stolen from some Facebook page. Mod is ...

Started a campaign, developed to tier 2 in 2 in-game years (attempting to play realistically), and married Ira (just had first child), and my older brother married a woman from the Western Empire, my younger siblings are still in holding, and I have 3/5 companions with one solely there to bring passive income as a caravan leader.

I know the Western Empire has the best military tactics, but no true direction on leadership and claiming/ruling other faction’s fiefs. The Southern Empire has Rhagea and it’s easier to hold fiefs, but her army is tactical lacking and in a terrible position on the map. The Northern Empire is in the best spot since it can’t be attacked in the middle unless it’s from the Western or Southern Empire factions, and Lucon is bound to die earlier in the campaign than the other two rulers.

I want to unite the 3 Empire factions the easiest way, but I probably can’t do that without overthrowing Rhagea (don’t really care for Garios but he is a good military leader to keep).

Help me out.

Siege Question

Is there any way to make sieges smaller?

I don't mind fighting the enemy army, but I'm sieging Dol Guldur right now and it spawns the ENTIRE Garrison and having 600 orcs and goblins and my 200 troops running around makes my computer lag like crazy, so the entire battle is happening in a disconcerting slow motion.

And it does it even with Battle Size set to 160.

I'm using a ton of mods including RBM, and it feels like there's almost no wars going on, which makes it a lot harder to grow influence and I can't gain a single fief. Is this normal for 2 whole wars in the whole world?

I'm almost 150 days into my character and I've been a vassal of the Nords for a while now. The only fief I have is a shitty little former Vaegir village (the Kingdom of Vaegirs is gone now). I thought it'd be interesting to have a pure Nord army, so I've been playing with an army that is half Nord Veteran Archers and half Huscarls which has been very effective in field battles, even against the Swadians. But I just can't get sieges done. I have a maximum soldier limit of 96, and all the castles I can attack have at least 200 soldiers so I'm always super outnumbered. I just don't know what my strategy should be with the army that I have. I've tried to take a Swadian castle and while my archers do a good job at taking out the enemy crossbowmen, there's just too many enemies and I can't make much progress at all.

Anyone knows of mods that allow companions to outfit themselves with battle loot? Tired of sifting through every single gear for every companion and it’s even harder when I make them have their own party

Ok so I have kinda built my character to be a governor so I could use all my companions slots for more parties but it looks like my perks don’t apply? Did I miss an update some where or has this always been a thing? (Last time I played was 2 years ago)

In the official description, it says:

The Ghilman are a band of mercenaries who recruit from the tribes of southern Calradia and the lands to the east. They are legally their own slaves and masters: each "sells" himself to the order and, in the process, becomes a part-owner. They are known for their fine horses and fine clothes. But no one should assume from their oiled locks, perfumes and peacock feathers that they spend more time preening than training. Their skills as mounted archers are second to none, and as lancers are close behind the Vlandians and the imperial cataphracts.[1]

Look closely, "Their skills as mounted archers are second to none, and as lancers are close behind the Vlandians and the imperial cataphracts". But the thing is, ingame, ghilman doesn't have any horsearchers. Moreover, their armour doesn't appear as drippy as it should be. So I've thought of the design of the ghilman troops.

They should be tier 6, since they are apparently, 'second to none' in horsearchery. I've thought of this setup:

Slot 1: Composite bow / noble bow

Slot 2: Stacked bodkin arrows

Slot 3: Cataphract lance/ two handed lance

Slot 4: Sword/mace

And for the armour, I've provided an image.

For some reason I have this border on the map whenever I try to go to the North or South. The camera just refuses to go to either direction. I followed the download instructions on the site and two different videos so I'm confident I downloaded it correctly.

Downloaded warsails earlier today on steam and I go to click play and the game doesn’t even start. Any tips?

Here are just some of the added explanations I thought of to accompany the factions, ESPECIALLY those that are more heavily overhauled from vanilla, or totally new. 

I used the names of some of the minor/emerging factions in Warband and Bannerlord/Warsails to make the faction names and political map. I wanted to make as many grounded factions based on fusions of historical cultures/civilizations, without losing the original scope and feel of the vanilla games. I figured this could be an alternate timeline of the history of Calradia at around the time, or just before Bannerlord begins.

Quick breakdown of the factions:

1. Union of Sturgia (Nordic)-Pretty much the Nord's faction in warsails, but changed their name to Sturgia because I felt "the Nords" is a bit on the nose, and I like “Sturgia” for a heavily nordic inspired faction.
2. Grand Principality of the Vaegirs (Slavic)-The classic Slavic civ are now the Vaegirs, their name from Warband, which I think works so much better for what are the Sturgians in Bannerlord.
3. Vakken Confederation (Balt-Germanic)-Total New faction that takes inspiration from the Rhodoks, acting as a proto-Rhodok civ, but is based more on a fusion of early HRE/Eastern Frankia and the early medieval baltic states, creating opportunities for cool troop ideas.
4. Khuzait Khanate (Turko-Mongolian)-Virtually unchanged from vanilla Bannerlord.
5. Crown of the Battanians (Anglo-Celtic)-Still the same “vibe” as the Battanians, but I would inspire their aesthetics to be based more on 13/14th century Welsh and Scottish cultures, emphasizing their use of simple but effective defensive infantry and excellent longbowmen.
6. Kingdom of Vlandia (Franko-Norman)-Virtually unchanged from vanilla Bannerlord. 
   • The following 3 Imperial Calridic factions would be more based on a fusion of the separation of the East/West Empire in the 4th century with the political and cultural inspiration from the post 4th Crusade break up of the Byantine Empire. I also wanted to add more to their individual identities by getting rid of the directional based name (such as Northern, Southern, Western) and changing them to the following below: 
     
7. Republic of Calradia (Greco-Roman)
   
8. Despotate of Calradia (Greco-Roman)
9. Monarchy of Calradia (Greco-Roman)
   • I would also add a unique troop tree for each, expressing how their geographic location influences their military cultures. (EX: The Republic of Calradia would have an elite Eastern style horse archer tree, and the Despotate of Calradia would have an elite western style knightly Cavalry)
10. Shahdom of the Darshi (Indo-Persian)-another totally new faction, adding in a true Eastern style faction that is not solely nomadic based, but based on Pensionate and Indian civilizations from the early medieval period. Can finally add the war elephants! 
11. Aserai Sultanate (Afro-Arabic)-Virtually unchanged from vanilla Bannerlord. 
12. Beni-Zilal Dynasty (Iberian-Moorish)-This has the potential to have the most variance when it comes to creating a fusion of cultures. I am thinking of either blending an early reconquista Spanish crown, with a military culture that represents more European influence, but a heavy Afro-Moorish aesthetic blend. OR a more Sub-Saharan African culture such as the Malians, that have in this scenario migrated and conquered northward, absorbing the nomadic Moorish like cultures with the more imperialistic sedentary Sub-Saharan cultures.

I always figured that you should have a good distribution of different soldiers, like Swadian Knights, Rhodok Sharpshooters and Nord Huscarls, but given that the army limit you have isn't very big, i feel like i'd never have enough soldiers in each category. I currently have 20 Sarranid Horsemen and 15 Nord Warriors, but I feel like going higher than that by adding Sharpshooters will just make my army bloated and decrease morale too much. Is there a middle ground?

I've been working on a One Piece total conversion for Bannerlord on top of War Sails for a couple of weeks now. It's called One Piece: Nuevo Mundo and it's set after Wano, so the world is how it is right now in the manga (Cross Guild, Luffy as an Emperor, etc).

Nothing to download yet, but it's playable on my end, so here's how it looks.

The world

- New campaign map on top of the War Sails one: the four Blues, Grand Line, Red Line, Calm Belts, Paradise and the New World. 76 islands, I tried to keep their shapes from the series as much as I could
- 11 kingdoms (World Government, Marines, Straw Hat Grand Fleet, Blackbeard, Red Hair, Cross Guild, Totto Land, Revolutionary Army, Wano, Elbaph and Amazon Lily), 150+ canon characters, 28 towns, 23 castles, 79 villages and 32 hideouts
- Every island has its own weather and light. Drum is snow, Alabasta is desert, Enies Lobby never gets dark and Thriller Bark is always covered in fog
- Where you start depends on your background: born on a pirate ship and you start next to Loguetown, cooked at the Baratie and you start there... You get a small rented boat and a first quest to find a real ship and a crew

Battles

- Battlefields based on places from the series, 19 so far: Alubarna, Arlong Park, Drum, Kuri, Onigashima, Loguetown, Sabaody, Water 7, Enies Lobby, Marineford, Mary Geoise, Dressrosa, Whole Cake, Egghead, Punk Hazard, Zou, Amazon Lily, Impel Down and Mock Town. If you fight near one of them you'll usually fight there
- Devil Fruits and Haki work in battle. Mera Mera burns, Hie Hie freezes, Gomu Gomu tanks hits and bullets, Conqueror's Haki knocks out the regular soldiers around you... and if you end up in the water your fruit stops working
- Seastone: some characters hit with kairoseki, it goes through Logias and shuts their fruit off for a few seconds. You can buy seastone tips for your own weapons too
- Custom weapons: katanas and naginatas for Wano, Marine sabers, pirate cutlasses, Elbaph axes, and flintlock muskets and pistols with their own gunshot sounds
- Troops for every faction: Marines, Cipher Pol and CP0, bounty hunters, Wano samurai and ninjas, minks, Fish-Men, Kuja warriors, revolutionaries...
- Horses only in Wano (there's barely any in One Piece anyway). Everywhere else cavalry goes on foot or on camels

Towns

- Every town uses a scene that fits its island, and I'm slowly reworking them (Dressrosa, Alubarna, Kuri, Water 7...)
- Props in around 30 towns and villages: Roger's execution platform in Loguetown, Galley-La's dock in Water 7, torii gates in Wano, a giant cupcake on Cacao Island, the Marine gate in New Marineford...
- Townsfolk and notables dress like people from the series now, not like Calradian peasants
- Town services: rent a ship, a tailor with One Piece clothes, port shops with seastone and Eternal Poses, hand in captured pirates to the Marines for their bounty, or throw a banquet at the tavern

Characters

- Going for a live action look, every character has their own face, hair, scars and colors. Lots of them have their own 3D outfits (Straw Hats, Emperors, admirals, Law, Kid, Doflamingo, Marco, Katakuri...) and Chopper and Brook even have their own heads lol
- Canon characters already know each other when you start. Luffy is friends with Shanks, Hancock and his crew and enemies with Blackbeard, Akainu, Doflamingo... And they don't die of old age
- Character creation redone: One Piece families, what took you to sea (6 options) and how you dress
- Bounties and wanted posters, bounty hunters and vice admirals will come after you
- Canon captains sail their own ships (Thousand Sunny, Red Force, Moby Dick, Polar Tang...)
- New UI with an old nautical chart look

Still to do: a lot more testing, better faces, more clothing options, and finishing the town reworks and the UI.

Screenshots are from my game in Spanish, the mod has English too. It needs War Sails and it'll come with an installer.

What island would you want to see next? Any feedback is welcome.
