Wooden hammers are a speed run material for smithing. Making charcoal is worth the most xp and Wooden hammers can be smelted into 3 wood giving you a convenient supply of 20 denar wood and a rough iron. So have companions smelt and then make charcoal rinse repeat. Can hit lvl 100 smith for less than 6k denar in just a couple days.

If you're looking for a very quick start, you can go to the retreat and pass your clan to your brother. Your brother has a dozen or so skills that start over 100 and has a fully customizable stat array

If you recruit forest bandits you can turn them in to fian champions! Get the veteran perk!

in early game, turn looters to run, and follow on horseback killing them one-by-one with melee. Rapidly raises weapon skill. Works for rapid advance of bow as well.

Good work and info new to game about a month in and learning new stuff everyday.

Noble troops are always going to be found in villages bound to castles

Thanks for video man, I learned the prosperity of settlements determined item quality in shops

Best tip you said was about the surgeon. They are kick ass and save troops that saves denars.

Been meaning to get back into this game

Can’t wait for the update!

Im playing the campaign for the souther empire and I'm executing every lord forcing their faction into submission after a while.. less lords - less troops to command. Ofc I check their status/friends etc so I don't kill so many influencing lords within my own faction.. if it decrease too much I just deliver a lord into their castle/town as prisoner. Easy way to get the relation up with a lord of your own faction. :)

Have you ever received the Imperial plume helmets in your playthroughs?

It’s being speculated on reddit that the update won’t be coming to consoles until the end of autumn which I believe is November

Ive been struggling with splitting my units... I was able to do it before but now its not letting me at all and i dont know why. Im trying to split 30 heavy sturgian axemen from 30 imperial legionaries?

I'm seriously keen on the next update in two years so I won't die of old age next playthrough

The game shows you how to fight with tutorial but it is a world your characters don't know all about may be wrong but il say its really fun to learn in game as you play just like improving your characters and realms is yeah it can become repetitive it's a buzz when playing later on in game or a new game over time learning something new you didnt knw before too addicted this incredible game, player game or character connection best game for that I have played have always loved not knowing everything and learning along my gameplay think be different if you as a player knew how everything worked before or at the start it would not be as good you also learn things from certain chats to other you talk to

How do get moore towns or castles? Some playthroughs i having a hard time get some! You get the first one easy but the second!

Is there any possibility of getting console commands in ps4.?

Im pretty sure fian champions are nerfed. They die the most in my armies. Best tropos for me are elite cataphracts and legionary with vlandian sharpshooters as archers along with khans guards

It feels like I’m running in circles

Does anyone know how do you put all your players on the field, is there a cap size, I habe 250 men but it will let me put 100 men on the field at once

Anyone know how to target gates? Please help!

The 1 thing I learned: You can see negative effects before you execute someone.

HELP! So I made the kingdom jump with 1500 influence and 3.1M denars. I've done a great job at taking territory in the north. This is after making a jump attempt at 1M denars and lead to me being broke within a month, getting captured and watching all all my cities burn to the ground as they take me to the nearest dungeon. In my newest kingdom jump, Ive recruited 3 clans so far which has cost me GREATLY. That plus taking 7 castles and 4 cities, I am now down to -1.8M. Having to pay larger kingdoms to keep the peace has DRAINED me. Here is my current issue. I just recruited my third clan. I wanted someone in the south who could fight that kind of battle once I needed too. I had to give up horse, weapons, armor and anything else since I DONT have any money left. Here is what I noticed and my biggest problem with moving forward. NONE of my clans seem to be recruiting troops!! Literally everyone I have is a tier 4 or 5 minus the one companion that I promoted. I have been giving out castles and cities on a rotation to ensure I stay in positive influence with all of them but literally they all seem to CONSTANTLY stay at 40 troops or under. My three companion parties seem to recruit but even they have now stopped. I can only build my own army up to 300 using loot from recent battles. What can I check in the game to ensure my clans are collecting troops? Is the issue that I am broke so they cant???? Should I take back all my properties to try and reduce my debt down? I have completely elminated the Sturgans and the Northern Empire. I dont know what else to do but there is no way I can take on the "Big 3" left to try and win the game if my clans are too busy drinking wine, getting laid and not collecting troops. I just hit tier 5 or 6 which added another companion. I think I need to get them back to caravans to try and net more cash but at 1.8M in the hole I dont believe it will even make a dent.

How do you know if you gave made a master or legendary crafted weapon? Also my max troop count is 170 I think. I know when steward is leveled and other perks it will increase, but how do.i get a real big army of like say 1000?

How come my forest bandits won't level up into fians anymore? I had about 20 champions but now my 15 forest bandits refuse to level up (ps5)

Focle points?

Sieging castles and towns. bring a lot of food, and wait til the target starves. The entire garrison will die, leaving only the militia ... roughly half the defenses will die before you attack. You can take down targets double your army size.

I conquest Lageta,Pen cannock and Kayaz . I don't declare a kingdom.Move at map 1000 days and protect caravans. ,at clan born a 9 child😅😅 and 2 sis bro, every kings send request to vassalage ,but they don't declare a war. Best time at calradia. With 160 soldier we can do a siege at least 160 days,they dying after harvest. But it's a bug what no one attacked me?

Please TaleWorlds add some nice looking helmets in the update for consoles. Great helm or winged helm, something besides the trash ass vanilla helmets. And plate armor, I’m trying to be a knight here.

And from old match,i have a grandson from my Dayenerys,some one play so long? 30 clan at my kingdom,but peace its unfair sh1t ,i stop war with vlandia,go to aserai,win,but vlandia again declare war,how much time a truce,1 game month? They should ad a 1 year truce. U can't recruit people, because again war, with same country's

How many dags have you played? Ingame time!🤔

Does this game need a mod for ps4 ?

Another tip: Vlandian cav... just Vlandian cav.

Can anyone help at all? I’ve just started bannerlord for the first time today and I currently have no money whatsoever, after paying a few recruits. Now they’re dead aaand I’m completely lost. I literally don’t know what to do, I tried doing quests but I can’t do them as I lack troops and gold. I can’t buy anything to sell, I can’t kill looters as I’m outnumbered and I can’t seem to win tournaments as the opponents are head to toe in armour. Seriously considering putting the game down as I’m stuck. Any ideas?

Alea was getting marriage requests till the day she died. My girl has incredible engineering.

Just found out this game is on console

Does this game have cheat console on ps5? I want add gold in sandbox

Execution is bs why give me the option if it absolutely pisses on me with a severe punishment even when I'm actively at war with them

I just want a cheat mode and maybe a Japanese faction

Smithing is so broken .. who on earth is buying all these 40K two handed swords? Breaks the emersion for me. You missed talking about being a mercenary, this is great strategy as you can earn money/loot and high tier troops, you can also keep switching sides so you can defeat lords and let them go, after a while you have built up friendships with many lords across every faction so when it come to making you own kingdom it makes it easier to recruit powerful lords into your faction as they like you.

Ffs you are long winded and rambling in the beginning

Your brother is the best surgeon in the game. He literally raises the dead for your army 😅
