Why does Harlaus enjoy feasting so much? Shit like that is why I defected to the Nords.

Sure if you're defending, spearmen won't do shit against a huscarl.
What is life worth if you cannot enjoy it?
I fight for King Harlaus, I fight for the feast.

How is the 1257 AD mod for this game?
does it allow me to be a trading Venetian merchant

boring as fuck, if you want a historic game just play CK2.

The map is too big to make much of anything fun.

How is the Viking DLC, is it any good yet? I was tempting to get that when it was on sale 75% a few week ago but in the end decided to pass.

I bought it when it was on sale and couldn't ignordit. It's alright, still seems best played with no mounted units which seems pretty silly considering. Maybe more historic but more boring. The boat combat is also meh, and most of the time involved me or half my army ending up in the ocean. I'm waiting for the newer version of that pirate game to go onsail.

They really upped the quality in the forged edition. Worth a play, many new mechanics

Well I guess I'll pick it up on sale then. I just want to burn villages and rape women is all.

I like to make a character in Khergit Khanate and then imagine myself as a mongol general.
I purposefully loot villages and carry at least 4 jugs of wine.
Also, Only horse archers allowed in my army

I had a playthrough where most of the time was spent fucking with their faction. Merc'd for a while, caved to Nords and became a lord eventually, long illustrious career until my character got taken by Kherjit in defence of a city (with only my mostly injured retinue as back up) then peace was declared the day or two after. Was stuck in the dungeon for years it felt like, regular messages of guard beatings and abuse, the lot.
When I could finally play again I spent ludicrous money on a small band of high tier mercs and took to raiding shitty lords that participated in my defeat, hoping to recruit prisoners. Built up from there to cities, castles, not holding anything just building up funds and an elite army (in some cases pretending I was rescuing lost troops) to shit on the faction that ruined me. When they declared war on a faction, I'd aid the opposition's battles, chase down outlier lords, anything to keep them from continuing to snowball the map.
Really fun save honestly, makes more of a case for emergent gameplay than most titles that advertise it.

I don't care what you think you know. In an open battle a horde of swadian knights would fuck up your shit archers
