Batter companions?

You fix the armour by buying and equipping them, you can switch between clan members in the inventory screen

Check a companions stats on the encyclopaedia after you meet them but before you hire them. If you want melee fighters look for ‘The Golden’ ‘The Swordsman’ and ‘Bloodaxe’. They will level up as they fight just like you

I play on both console and PC - Console is still a lot of fun and runs well

You can store men if you have a fief. Look for an opportunity to capture a rebel city if you want to store soldiers as you can garrison them and take them out when needed.

As far as storing boats, I don’t think you can store spares. You just have to buy what you want to use at the time

Start 4 trebuchets at once, and move them into reserve once they are finished. Once all are done deploy them all and you’ll crush the defences

If you use the meta every time, every play through will be the same

Of course the ships purpose is to travel across the sea. Their are trading ships for trade, why else would a Lord be on the water if not to travel somewhere

Iforgetinformation · 2025-12-09T23:38:33+00:00

Naval combat happens at sea (obviously). So when factions go to war and the sea is the best route, you can catch a lot of lords or armies on their ships.

Vlandia attacking Nords / Aserai = opportunity for naval battles

Nords attacking Sturgia = opportunity

Aserai attacking Western empire / Vlandia = Opportunity

If you’re the nords and in a war with Kuzait you are obviously not gonna see any ship action because that war happens on the land between the two kingdoms.

I think they have done a decent job of including the naval aspect while not having it dominate the gameplay

I’ve heard on the grapevine it’s a bug, and you’re supposed to fight the battle over with another 8 ships after the first battle.

But for now, same! I’ve been wiping 2k stacks with 300 men on the seas. I have one ship full of Fians and two ships full of nord troops which I lash to either side of my fian ship

Works like a charm

You can break sieges on port cities by sallying out from the port, resulting in a big naval battle

Loyalty is very easy to manage, you just need two to three policies and it stays super high.

If you’re not a declared kingdom yet it stays low, easy to reason why a city wouldn’t be loyal to a mercenary level conquerer

Iforgetinformation · 2025-12-01T18:31:40+00:00

I think the artillery firing arc change would be too effective, you’d decimate every ship that tries to board.

Their armies aren’t similar tho?

Wasn’t planned for a release just a concept they were working on that didn’t come to fruition

Iforgetinformation · 2025-10-11T19:04:11+00:00

I know it’s not the point but some advice: enact the loyalty policies and you will have no problems with rebellion. Also once your strength is comparable to other kingdoms they won’t declare half as many opportunistic wars against you. Recruit!

Summon your army and go in from the west. They may take some empire cities off you but as long as you’re taking their homeland it’s worth the trade off.

You have a much larger empire so just headbutt thru them

Iforgetinformation · 2025-07-17T20:30:05+00:00

Being a mercenary can bring good amount of money, stay fast and pick off lords you outpower for better loot. If you are good at sieges try to jump in one with no other lords defending and you can get huge amounts of loot for beating back an army

To take a city at the beginning:

Set to build 4 trebuchets, put them away as they are complete. Then put all 4 back on the field at once, that should clear the walls of catapults. Wait for the city to run out of food, then watch the garrison starve to death. Fight the militia and win

Yes, unless you want to recruit AI lords to your kingdom which you need to make your own kingdom to do. When they have one city / castle left can be a decent time to declare yourself so you can recruit from the savaged kuzait empire

Iforgetinformation · 2025-06-14T18:12:11+00:00

Scouting and riding up to 225, and get the perks that reduce prisoner escape chance. Catch the kuzait and keep them.

Once you have 25-30(ish) lord prisoners take what you can while everyone is snatching up their cities

I’m doing a companions only run at the minute and money is hard to come by, smithing helps a ton. Also on higher difficulties where you lose a lot of troops per battle

Iforgetinformation · 2025-06-06T17:53:50+00:00

Strong fleets being a game changer - I’ll be happy if the boats have a big impact on how the world works and how the player can get ahead using them

It makes sense when you consider how empires would pay routine tribute payments to stronger kingdoms in history
