[@Benoniyoutube]

You’ve come to the right place! Respect is everything. Chivalry is all ;) Come find me in the clan and say hello.

For someone who has been rolling with BRE for just a year now, I loved to see how thing were before and how this great community has evolved. Now a Sergeant of Aquitaine myself, and member of the guild of builders (modders and mapmakers), I'm looking forward to what is still to come! For the king! For the lady!

We are yet to hit the golden age

Ive only been playing with the Almos since this last new years (I knew them from napoleonic days, as "Miquelets", but I didn't have bannerlord until xmas), but I've been enjoying every moment I've played with yall. It's amazing how you managed to keep such a positive and fun community and provide such great events for us. A collective thanks to the BRE from me, it's really interesting to see how things have been going in all the time I've not been here. Just this weekend we have celebrated the 10th anniversary of the "Catalan Mount & Blade" community, encompassing the start as Miquelets from 2014, and this new era as Almogavers we are in now. Cheers, and here's to many more years of fun and roleplay!

[@Benoniyoutube]

Great comment! The ALMO clan are in the top 5 lads for me! Always respect and a good fight ! Keep going! And I’ll see you on the battlefield !

[@m3aTBaGcpt]

Almost a year with BRE, had the honour to witness your Lordship. Can't wait for our next evolvement

[@Benoniyoutube]

Who knows what the future holds! But, its gonna be bloody.

[@BRE-Guiskard]

such a moving video! I really have goosebumps. I love seeing how your journey with Benoni and BRE started. I'm honored to have been able to be part of your new story as Folcard von Montfort since the beginning! For the King, the Lady and the Brave Soldiers from Montfort!

[@Benoniyoutube]

For ze lady good soldier! Glad your here

[@g21hawk]

CI player here, congratz on this video and on your promotion to duke, it feels like a long odyssey from the first events of the 2021, its been a long ride. But the battles are still something that no game can reply

[@Benoniyoutube]

Aye it has been a long time. The [CI] are one of our longer standing foes on the battlefield. A pleasure

[@Prox64]

Good to see the community growing

[@Benoniyoutube]

It is ! Very much so !

[@BRE_Richard]

Great way to see and learn the tale of the famed Captain Benoit throughout the history of the BRE. We miss him in our Aquitanian line and hope he fares well at the Lady's side in heaven. And for once: Long live Lord Folcard de Montfort

[@Benoniyoutube]

Your praise makes me blush good warrior.

[@Le_Raynaud]

very nice video Benoit (or Folcard :D), full of souvenirs from early BRE. It's cool to remember our evolution

[@Gislebert]

Excellent effort! And a promotion that is certainly well deserved!

[@Benoniyoutube]

Praise the good soldiers of the BRE

[@Tallebot]

The time when u was leading aquitanie you showed me not only discipline but place where i met mama friends. Watch our for the cavalry boys!

[@Benoniyoutube]

Watch out for ze cavalry boys!

[@Edward-ry4qm]

I'm glad you came this far with us. If Bretonnia is where it is today it is also largely thanks to you Benoît and you know it without saying it out of modesty and humility. 1300 days and thousands more. “These Knights who swear loyalty to the Lady and the King ride to defend what was and what will be again. » Louen

[@Benoniyoutube]

We live in the shadow of success, of the battles that have already been! Many more to go! Thank you and heres to the future

[@itsnumgies7027]

Man, I SERIOUSLY need to get Bannerlord on PC. Been spending a month or two watching your content and I’ve been hooked ever since.

[@Benoniyoutube]

Do it! Get in the clan and come battle with us. Were super casual, attendance isn't mandatory.

[@williammclyr3330]

I really like your roleplay, BRE feels much more like old editions bretonnia with true medieval aesthetics, instead of parody of a more recent one's. Great to see brave men of bretonnia both noble ones and common folk be disciplined fighters with skill, instead of peasant being cowards who don't know how to fight

[@MorvanEnough]

Why am I crying 14:27

[@Benoniyoutube]

End of a era, the birth of a new future for all! Keep fighting!

[@legrognard7827]

I don’t look back with nostalgia to those « public siege sessions » we used to do X) It was a long and arduous journey and I’m glad the duchy of Aquitanie could count you among its members! Shout out to the organisers, modders, mappers, officers and sub-officers of Bretonnia who made this possible and respect to the clans who take part in the BRE events and always put on a good fight

[@Benoniyoutube]

We've came so far! The best days are still ahead of us! :) An honour sir!

[@OfficialUrifa]

Stumbled upon your video just after redownloading Bannerlord 2 years later. I always loved Bannerlord, but fell off in early 2022. I also wanted to be involved in a community like this! Glad I found it, applying now!

[@Benoniyoutube]

Welcome aboard soldier. I’ll see you on the battlefield, come find me

[@gloomsouls]

It's so epic what the community has achieved. I'm so sad I miss out.

[@Benoniyoutube]

Fear not, i still think the best days are ahead of us!

I never realised just how recent Bannerlord multiplayer truly kicked off. Really great video bud, I watched every second :D At 17:10, SVCI was doomed as soon as you entered their back lines!

[@georgekantartzis]

I wanted to play online but europe server is dead

[@MattsFiefdom]

@@georgekantartzis The custom server scene in Europe is thriving more than ever presently. Benoni's video is all about the European organised clan events. I agree vanilla bannerlord is a bit stale these days. Are you on console? These custom events are only available on PC currently. Might be the reason. Hope this helps! :)

[@georgekantartzis]

@@MattsFiefdom yeah im on console

[@MattsFiefdom]

[@whatNtarnation90]

Great video. Wish I knew bannerlord MP actually turned to something. Talewords should be massively embarrassed how badly they butchered multiplayer and didn't do anything with it for so long.

[@velios00]

Oh i love this, i've been watching your videos for a year and joined the community because of them, it's so nice to see how people with a common taste builds these fantastic experiences, and i also love how you guys managed to keep the clan alive even in the hard times and worked trough troubles to make it as beautiful as possible. I hope this lasts as long as it can in the future and we can become even greater than we are now. - Mounted Sergeant Laroche of Brionne ! 🪓

[@BryceDoesLife]

this is beautiful

[@ScarTalon]

Is there a gathering place like a main discord or forum where one could look for clans? I only today had these bannerlord videos pop in my algorithm and honestly it looks fun. I'd be interested in looking around at the different clans to see which might be a fit for me.

[@Benoniyoutube]

Hmmm it’s a good question - if you look at the Bannerlord forums and look for multiplayer then events or clans you can find some - ofcourse I believe the BRE are the kings! We have many different dukedoms and regiments. More the merrier ! We’re also rp focused and non Competitive

[@ScarTalon]

@@Benoniyoutube Are you aware of any NA time zone events or groups? from everything i can find it looks like the events are centered around Europeans and their time zones. I don't have an issue with that but your events happen at 3AM my time so it's not really possible for me to participate in those even if I wanted too

[@temperedgrizzly5988]

For a minute there I thought this was the bannerlord online mod

[@Benoniyoutube]

Ahh no, I never really got into that.. Too many meta's Great mod though

[@HeadlessHorsemanProductions]

Patiently waiting for Bannerlord multiplayer ARMY vs. ARMY. Even if we could command 50-100 units in a battle of 30 players, 1500 vs 1500, I'd be in. Just not my style to run around as one guy in battles like these. I prefer command.

[@Benoniyoutube]

ahh i see. I believe modded captain modes its close to this? more like 800 vs 800 - i think

[@HeadlessHorsemanProductions]

@@Benoniyoutube Have a link??

[@Benoniyoutube]

look for the captain servers on the multiplayer

[@nochera84]

There are 5 v 5's in Bannerlord Online each with their own army (around 150? each), but the grind to get there is rough.

[@HeadlessHorsemanProductions]

@@nochera84 Also very hard to know and coordinate what your other 5 are going to do... Do you know of anyone who shares video of these battles on youtube?

as if they've only just given you duke, tight bastards!

[@Benoniyoutube]

Hah! I've turned it down many times in the past. This 'duke' is renown for fighting on foot and not on a horse.

[@Stcddot]

16:22 u didn’t see it at the time(which is reasonable cos u were focusing on the elites)but your guys got flanked on their left here and when u told them to shift right the left flank almost collapsed and u suffered unnecessary casualties. U should have told them to keep the shield wall tight and shift gradually to bend the enemy line in half and then push in. Just some constructive criticism for your next battle

[@Benoniyoutube]

I don’t think so my friend, to our left it was the yellow shields and black shields both Allies fighting the ALMO clan. I did watch this back when I made it and wondered the same, but I still stand by the decision :)

[@gergelybuza6856]

good day good sir. Just wanted to ask how often are recruitments?

[@Benoniyoutube]

They try to do as many as they can- evenings are best :) I’m guessing you’ve done the discord steps - don’t worry they’ll be in touch - we want as many soldiers as we can get. The more we have the cooler events we can do

[@thatonebritishlad3006]

so is there other clans in the events or is BRE split into like 20 man groups that go into lines how often do the events take place i play alot of war of rights so i do alot of line battle events like these but we do it with regiments and each line is a different regiment

[@Benoniyoutube]

So the bre are the largest clan. Easily with 2-250 players a battle. These are split into dukedoms aka regiments. The we normally play against 5-7 other smaller clans. Who have lines between 10-40 soldiers.

We have many many NA :) ping is an issue for some. But others finds ways to make it work

[@Deadfire_34]

I've seen a lot of strategys, but I don't have one, when the troops are a lower number than me and they won't attack me (AI), any strategy I could use for that? I use mostly battanian archers and some cavalry on the sides, with a square formation infantry on the front.

[@Benoniyoutube]

Not sure as single player is very different to real players. If you have less number you should try and attack first- so the enemy doesn’t surround you. I guess that works for both multiplayer and single

[@Deadfire_34]

Nah what I meant is I need a defensive build up on how to counter the enemy not attacking me, just because they have less troops, so if I try to rush them, they will destroy me with their archers... @Benoni
