A sneaky thing you can do if you have enough money is buy all of the food in a town before you siege it. The game takes that into account and it causes them to starve much faster.

[@CSDragon]

LOL

[@ohmygodpleasehalp3984]

That’s evil af…I’m def going to do that 😂

[@ahhhhhhhh8228]

Oddly enough I figured this out by myself and it proved useful. 180 vs 370. EZ

[@Tethos]

Better yet, stay neutral, buy all the food, wait until they starve, then sell it back for profit. Or, keep them starved until they rebel then take it without having to fight a war.

[@spinachmuncher2566]

Word? Holy crap that's awesome, definitely going to be ransacking their traders before my next siege

[@Mowraq]

I have like 300 hours in this game and didn't know you could just put your siege equipment into reserves and deploy them all at once. Learning something new every day, trebuchet superiority here I come.

[@S3mj0n]

Exactly lmao. This actually changes a lot for me

[@ogoatj]

Quick tip: dont make a kingdom right away. "KINGDOMS CAN ONLY DECLARE WAR ON KINGDOMS". If you get a town from rebellion, just sit on it and dont make a kingdom right away and watch as no one will ever declare war on you. But this doesnt let you become a mercenary anymore as mercenaries cant have fiefs. You can pledge as a vassal or just focus on building infrastructure and get rich first before making a kingdom to sue for peace with 2-3 other kingdoms while you focus on 1 specific weaker kingdom. Then you start snowballing this and go for world conquest.

[@damonwinscher7063]

Seiges are easily one of my favorite things about this game. I just love the chaos and desperation of defending a castle with 300 troops against 900 or more.

[@PmPclans]

The castle you say not to take was the first one I took white meca an epicrotea 4 factions went to war with me an I been defending since the last castle to stand is the one you tell us no to get😂

[@hbuels7125]

Seen a few others, but PRO tip, you can take any at any amount of defenders. Militia are basically looters, buy foods first to starve out the garrison to 0. Wait and attack the first lord/troops that leave to declare war and keep him as prisoner so he can't attack you during siege. Build 4 trebuchets, moving them in reserve as complete, deploy all 4 at once. Attack. And done. Have almost half the map from this so far.

[@wuxiagamescentral]

One important thing to note the daily activity is only done if your town is not currently doing a project. If you're doing a project the activity won't happen and you'll still lose loyalty if you're depending on the festival to keep your loyalty up

[@prwillard2]

Holy smokes I never knew this. Great to know! I've always been pissed because the +3 loyalty from bread and circuses never worked.

[@wuxiagamescentral]

@@prwillard2 same with me I only found out cause I was gone for a long time and I noticed a +2.5 loyalty. The ideal strategy is to build until you get negative building progress then spend a couple days building loyalty back then start building again

[@Decker-ng4qi]

Oh my god my eyes have been opened i didn't know this

[@JoshuaJames604]

Just a PSA for everybody skip the ram, ballista, and catapult. Build 4 trebs and then let it rain on them until the walls are gone. Your troops will annihilate the garrison because they can just walk through crumbled walls vs being funneled through the gate or single file ladders

[@jamiehughes5573]

You don't want to damage the walls, otherwise your spending gold and time rebuilding them

[@JoshuaJames604]

@@jamiehughes5573 I'm okay with that. When I knock the walls down I can just go from city to city because I don't lose men in the seiges. They might take some back but I'm doing a lot more damage than I'm taking. When the AI seiges even against a low garrison they take a lot of casualties. Being in the battle yourself makes a big difference, when I auto resolve those same crushing victories I end up taking heavy casualties

[@JoshuaJames604]

@@jamiehughes5573 my go to for taking castles is assault right away with ladders, ride horse to ladder and be the first up the wall to hold it for your men. Same story, if your troops are good enough you'll lose almost none of them. That just never seems to work out with cities because the walls are taller and usually the garrison is a lot better so they can hold back my first wave

[@rjboxxer1502]

This is basically the only true thing said in this video or the comments, it’s all about trebs… and taking a fief is easy, keeping it is hard. End of story

[@krieger8825]

It's still good to starve them a bit and 4 trebs. Less men and easy access to the defender's assets

[@deanrolph6912]

With strong armour and a bow you can solo a town or castle, Just attack as soon as possible then get your army to retreat, The infantry comes out to attack you, draw them away from the castle and then ride quickly inside and close the gates, climb the nearest tower and kill any archers there, At the top will be a barrel of arrows for infinite refills and then start taking everyone down.

[@DIEGhostfish]

Attack before you even have a sige camp? So they can't use your own ladders to get in?

[@deanrolph6912]

@@DIEGhostfish You have to build the camp but you don't need the ram or anything else, And they wont use the ladders, Sometimes a couple of infantry get stuck inside the castle and leave later and open the gates so keep an eye for a short time when you close yourself inside.

[@Crablover132]

Thats some loony toons sht lmao.

[@davonskevortful]

My method.. work as a merc. Attack target and take it for the faction that hired me. Then quit that faction and attack the weakened target. This way i am behind lines of a faction that is hostile to the faction i attacked.

[@jayreds201]

Fun tip, based on this particular siege scenario. Before attacking, you could have taken the time to build multiple trebuchets and not only destroy the enemies siege weapons, but their walls as well. This way less troops are killed on the ladders and from enemy siege fire, as well as making the battering ram redundant.

[@DarnedDuck]

Exactly what I was about to comment. If you are not in a rush, you may as well just wither it down with the catapults for easy assault access.

[@ESOdanny]

This is great advice when taking the rebelling towns, as in the 2nd example. If you do this however I would suggest creating a regiment and manually getting the AI to follow you through the opening in the wall.... otherwise they do some wired things that often result in death.

[@dikkado]

Yes! But beware enemy armies, should watch hundreds/thousand of them. If they are close to you while siege, just run for your life or they will got you. Idk in easy difficulties, but in high difficulty you can't just fight them with 100 soldiers.

[@cazares7005]

The only downside would be that u have to rebuild the walls if you break them down

[@andreassjoberg3145]

Sadly you have to rebuild the walls if you wreck them. Unsure if that is in the game or not at this stage.

[@pantherxdoesit3425]

[@DeusVult777-YHWH]

That doesn’t matter unless you’re doing a major rp playthrough

[@wuxiagamescentral]

You can actually take down the walls to make sieging easier if you let your trebuchet and catapults attack the walls after dealing with their catapults

[@sultanhamzah8974]

tho, the town will be starved, i prefer not to

[@iguy6571]

Actually, you should make trebuchets and move them to reserve until they're all built. Then, deploy them all at once. They will destroy all the enemy siege weapons. Optionally, you can destroy the walls. This will make the settlement really easy to take.

[@daytimerocker3808]

also makes it really easy for a huge army to come by and take it back from you

[@LegendaryZet]

@@daytimerocker3808 Yup. But it's safe it is a rebellious town.

[@TheRevan1337]

I feel like the 'get a castle/town' stage could be alleviated if every mercenary clan start off with a castle, a town, and their assortment of villages somewhere nestled in among the rest. Not only does it display a bit of cultural/structural divide within the factions, it'd also give a player a springboard to take their own castle or town to build a kingdom from there, and easier access to the mercenary clan troops, while still allowing that mercenary clan to exist like they do now without any fiefs (plus you'd be able to wage war against them specifically without waging war against whichever faction they are working for )

[@MrF00tie]

Most of the time minor factions are at war directly and/or as mercenary of a kingdom. So once the player would be strong enough for a siege, the minor factions fiefs would've likely already been captured by established factions. Exacerbated by the fact that nearly all minor faction troop types (since the nerf to them circa version ~1.3) are very weak compared to their 'regular' counterparts. If having trouble with the transition to your own kingdom, I can recommend a mod like 'Party AI Overhaul and Commands (rebuilt)' which among other things enables you to order your clan parties to follow you, making your first siege(s) much easier.

[@wuxiagamescentral]

@@MrF00tie the problem early kingdom is not having enough vassals to help form an army because as soon as you declare a kingdom everyone and their mother is chomping at the bits to take you out

[@RodasAPCTV]

This is unfortunately one of the cut concepts that didn't survive development. Notables like 'Gang Leaders' would level up and become their own mercenary forces/clans, this would create division within the factions and allow them to break up (like the Empire does before the game starts), with new leaders rising from towns/villages.

As a solo clan, wait for a rebellion in a town, and go attack it. I took marunath with 115 troops against almost 400. It was close but I took it and since I haven't made my kingdom yet, I was able take the town and not have anyone wanting to war with me because they cant yet. Just catch a rebel party, attack it and wipe them out, then attack the town. It gave me ample time as well to build up my engineering skill since no rebel party was big enough to stop me. I now have Seonon as well with barely tier 3 clan. Way easier than being in a faction

[@ESOdanny]

FYI this was recorded on: - Friendly Troops Received Damage: Realistic - Combat AI difficulty: Veteran (hardest) - Player Received Damage reduced by 50% (easy, since i enjoy being a raid boss) It has mainly to do with the tier troops you have. Often it can be more beneficial to auto resolve instead of watch the AI try to navigate the walls vs some cities.

[@davidkrapensits4367]

@@ESOdanny this is good to know I tended to use mediocre units because I needed just a ton like 200 men and it was financially destroying me at the time.

[@JoshuaJames604]

Bide your time, level your clan working as a merc and as soon as you see a rebellion pop up in a city head there after ending your contract. Youll probably need around 150 high level troops. You could prob do it with less but have them all highly leveled. Fight with the rebels patrolling around the city then treb until the garrison is highly weakened or gone and the walls are crumbled. Then just march in there and take it and boom your an independant city state. I got lucky and ended up with pen canoc as a battanian character. Getting my ass kicked by a never ending imperial war now but it started great lol, I'm up to like 18 cities and 26 castles I think

[@JoshuaJames604]

And if you didn't know you can store seige equipment so it doesn't get shot by the defenders while you're building them. I like to have at least 3 before I start trebbing. The reason this works so great is you don't have to worry about anyone stopping you because you're only at war with a single rebel faction

[@dikkado]

After 70ish hours playing Bannerlord, I think Aserai castles and towns are the most difficult to take, but easier to defend. I'm gonna conquer Aserai in my next playthrough. You can win by defending it with 250 troops against 800+ troops, in highest difficulty.

1 year on and this advice is very sound from a clearly experienced player. My first attempt was Sibir. I unfortunately lost this very quickly, due to where it is located and had to ultimately leave my Kingdom, due to the amount of tribute payments to neighbouring Kingdoms. My second attempt at taking a settlement was kicking out the rebels at Tyal. Although Tyal isn't the best placed settlement. It is slightly tucked away in the hills. I had plenty of peace periods, allowing influence to slowly build-up. The Asarai declared war on a few occasions but didn't even bother to turn up to my settlement in Tyal and it eventually ended in peace after 31 days at war with no tribute payments. Sturgia also tried to declare on a few occasions, the same happened after 31 days. The only real threat, was the Khuzait's. They did turn up, but I just about managed to defend and even attack their settlements to eventually get them to pay my Kingdom tribute payments. Great advice for beginners to siege settlements in remote locations.

I've found that building the catapults and a siege tower or two is better than the ram. Sure the walls are a tight spot to fight in like the gate, but there are fewer places for archers to rain arrows on your men and for rocks to be thrown at them as well.

The best siege method is slow sieges... build 4 trebs, move em to reserve, build 2 SIEGE TOWERS, wait until garrison died, when militia alone stands put trebs to fire ( build speed depends on how many troops are actively defending it ) and when all defenders siege equip are destroyed wait and keep bombarding the town so walls get weaker... here you have 2 options: A: full archers ( either fians or palatine guarda ) or B: full infantry (either imperial or sturgian ) W option A you will weaken their walls BUT DO NOT DESTROY THEM, keep em w as low hp as possible, weak walls have no cover, which means defenders get exposed to archer fire, then you must set MANUALLY archer groups in front of the town w good angle and distance from tje walls... after you do this choose 1 of the 2 siege towers and climb it yourself ( go w a 2 handed long polearm, preferably the rhomphaia and a big shield ) open the bridge between tower and wall and FALL BACK to the ladders, some infantry will follow you and your archers will shot em down, then go up and bait em till no one else is there, go down the siege tower and repeat on the other side, when the walls are free select everyone and put sergeants on command and you should win w almost if not 0 casualties... Now option B for gigachads you do not build siege towers, build the battering ram and 4 trebs but this time destroy the walls and siege equip from defenders. After doing this assault and when you start the battle select all your troops, order them to follow you and go to one of the breached walls, take on account infantry divides itself on 3 groups so bringing all your troops to 1 sector most of the time gives you victory there, after that clear the gates and then the other sector and boom. Done. This is what 1k hs of bannerlord campaigns look like. Glory to the Empire!

Sire, the peasantry is revolting.

To get more men and a bigger army you should hire companions and turn them into party leaders. Of course you will need the finances beforehand so be a mercenary, set up caravans, workshops, or whatever. Your brother in the game can have a large army with his high stewardship skill

[@ESOdanny]

You cannot create an army until your a kingdom or a vassal unfortunately.

[@Telamonian]

@@ESOdanny oh dang I didn’t know that thanks for the tip

[@cyberius14]

Use your brother as a governor his cost is waaaay to high

[@zericdrayas1145]

The easiest way to take a city without joining anyone or being hostile with another faction. Do merchant guard and poacher missions at different cities to build your reputation and gather troops. Then, wait for a city to rebel, then swoop in and claim it before a faction can. Free city no hostile relations

[@salvation8755]

I'll be honest with you I wasn't war with all the factions of the same time without following the main quest line man that sucked when I was beginning

Man, these purple clan guys are quite well equiped, Ive captured many castles yet they get me eventually with a 100 kill dif and my other army chill to take random castles instead of freeing me 😂, so done, their leaser is dead now, i showed him mercy 2 times, this is it

[@g-lix7702]

You can also just defend the castle to the point where they pay you to declare peace (always defend castles with auto resolve)

[@Broodwar-yb6rv]

Not going to lie.. im struggling with this game. The arena is the easiest thing to beat but other than that half the time I don't know what I'm doing

[@takarahayashi4124]

Castles don't rebel btw, it's why when you do have other clans with you, give them to your vassals, as they are horrible at kingdom management.

Hey guys. I’m trying to find the correct Twitch channel for ESO. The one in the comments is over a year old with nothing new posted to it. Is there another one and if so (no offence) it may need to be added. Also thanks 🙏 for another insightful video. These guilds really help out us newbies and players that haven’t played since the betas 👍
