THOUSANDS WILL DIE - Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord Gameplay Let's Play #21

[@axellno1759]

They caught the big army for you, so you can catch up with an even bigger army. 6:44 You should've lifted the siege and take a little time to destroy that big army with the help of your nobles. Than resume with the siege with your help intact and have an easy battle with 2x more man than the town defenders.

[@saav2774]

Yeah. I thought so too. They were actually doing for the player to catch up with them.

[@ESOdanny]

Oh wow the AI is IQ 10000 but I'm only at a looter level.

[@Nathan666]

Agreed, he should have left the siege and aided his smaller allies in eliminating the larger army, and it could have even drawn out some from the city. This would have destroyed the army that was waiting to attack ESO after he lost many soldiers in the city battle and would have meant less defenders in the castle (if they sent some out to help their army) or more soldiers to siege the castle from the groups that were wearing down the enemy army. Although the AI would not do that. I was playing the game yesterday and my kingdom was chasing a smaller army, so I moved to slow it down and then engaged it so the main force could attack. I had 74, vs 212, with the main army being 367...and they watch me die and get captured instead of helping. So the AI is pretty dumb. And why cant you attack a sieging army??? You should not have to "sneak passed", you should be able to attack the preparing forces. Maybe someone (ESO?) can let the game developers know this?

[@harleyretherford6329]

I remember when Danny was do innocent, and shocked by the execution animation, now it's all with one liners and "get wrecked son" XD

That moment after 3 years of war far from home when ESO finally meets his 4 months old baby

[@medplutonium8932]

The reason that kingdoms declare war on you is because of the conspiracy quest. You can’t stop it in the current version of the game

[@ESOdanny]

BROTHER. I can stop ANYTHING!

[@corinbarnard128]

Maybe it will stop once I behead everyone, that is my plan atm. I used to take prisoners but Eso has inspired me. The northern kingdom only has 2 clans that are not listed as destroyed. Well there is the golden company listed also but even though it is listed under northern kingdom, they are not at war with me somehow whilst the rest are. Anyone know how mercenary clans work? I'm guessing they are hired by some other faction.

[@teapotdome]

in my game their are zero cities owned by another faction and the conspiracy quest keeps chosing factions that only have straggling lords with no armies to declare war on me... it's very annoying... leave me and my ten children alone.

[@Blake4014]

its reallly annoying that they randomly declare war, I hope they patch that out, its irrational.

i like at 13:30 the two guys are hitting the stone walls while everyone is going ham on the gate xD

[@Baraz_Red]

Around 13:50 and 14:00, did you notice you had a veteran fellow with a long-spear who harassed about 20 infantry for a rather long time. Talk about commitment and loyalty! (maybe not too bright though ; same guy who was whacking the door with a long-spear sideways)

[@toby1061]

I lead a force of 600 Vladian soldiers with some nobles to attack Tyal in sturgia for some reason it was super well defended and I got reminded of the battle of the black water in game of thrones and just whispered, Thousands will die. Great title.

[@orilux3898]

I used to figure all you did was reviews and such but watching your play through is actually pretty entertaining, you’re pretty funny lmao

[@vaporz109]

Finally! I don't think I've ever been this hooked to a series of youtube videos. I need help.

[@DennisHeikki]

Yes!! I made it second. Hey ESO, a tip. You can raise army cohesion of a host when you are on a campaign. You just buy it with influence.

[@DennisHeikki]

@Ezz Elhelbawy I didn't, i clicked the video 29 seconds after it was uploaded.

[@spurgeonwoods]

Try holding left shift while using your bow. You'll stay zoomed and you'll see where the arrow hits so you can adjust your aim.

[@zekebuchanan7017]

Love these vids bro! I appreciate you pouring out the content, just dont overwork yourself 😁

Know when to hold them and know when to fold. Know when to to take the lead and charge and know when to stay back and command, especially when wounded.

[@michaelwilson134]

Was this a reference to the gambler?

[@ModernTalkingCentral]

@@michaelwilson134, Not really, just a comparison reference in terms of strategy.

[@JC839]

I put a command to age my kids to adults but it bugged and kept the toddler model. Yet, they can still join a battle, so I have 3 toddlers running around on the battlefield. They run disturbingly fast and their body movements are very unnatural for their size. It’s both hilarious and unsettling seeing them, like buggy little grudges speeding at the enemy.

[@Kyle-uo5bg]

you can take all of your wife's armor/weapons/equipment that is tier 6 and use it on your character! you would be come an unstoppable tank in battle >:]

[@RishiKumar-ie6ns]

ESO, you asked us to suggest something crazy to do in the next playthrough. Well, it seems that the only way to test your battle prowess is to either: 1) Take on a large army solo (like you did with looters) 2) Fight a battle as a Naked Fanatic. Or, if you dare 3) Both, at the same time. Adjust difficulty to your liking, and make sure to bring a sword to seize battle. 😊😊

[@VinniePedi]

Regarding prisoners, only stack tiers 1/2/3 prisoners which transfer much quicker to troops. The more experienced tier 4 and higher prisoners rarely, if ever, transfer over to troops. It helps big time when you have 30-40 prisoners in queue ready to be transferred immediately after a battle.

[@FatLittleButterfly]

the guy on the left just giving the wall a good whacking

[@tarikarchreal]

they're attacking them on low troops because they think YOU WILL intervene AAARGH

[@justanameonyourscreen5954]

Give all your companions Camels to ride...instead of horses... A.K.A the elite Cameltoe Cavalry...

[@444Doomsday]

I like how after you got downed the battle started out with some pretty good moves by your AI with a straight-up volley line, then just deformed into the blob that Bannerlord seems to favor as an innovative "strategy."

[@zzzkoszzz]

Troops gain exp based on type. IOW you gain experience at a better rate if you keep the same type of units together until all that type can be trained at once as they gain by type not individual. EG you have 10 spears If you train 5 of them then the remaining 5 gain exp at a lower rate. Simple~ Train in bulk when applicable.

[@KettmanAquatic]

That dude chases that massive army off was so funny

Thanking so much dude!

[@keadonanderson2208]

I love your videos ESO, keep it up with the amazing content, and great job with Bannerlord 😁

[@Blestyr]

And from this day, let this battle be known as The Battle of Epicrotea Castle. This is arguably your most decisive battle up this date ESO, with such epicness and high stakes for your army.

[@steven000rob]

“My armies are dying, slow and quickly”😂

[@koriy5915]

you SHOULD care when you're over the limit, because desertion will occur, and it can be anyone. So you might be recruiting 3 looters just so 3 banner knights leave later because you were over the limit and you just rolled that bad that 3 very elite soldiers were the ones to leave. Also no, unlike Warband, other nobles for some reason don't join the siege, you won't find your wife in there. Btw, when the battering ram destroys the first door, just order all of the men using it to attack the second door, you can do that (a second icon will appear as you hover your mouse on the door, after selecting the "move to this position" order), that'll fix it and all of your men will start attacking that second door.

[@Baraz_Red]

Your companion ("Fur Hound") is bloody insane, but courageous. He attacked 500+, survived, re-attacked immediately, and again (+)... Notice how the enemy army was running away from him! Guess he wanted to thin out their numbers before they fought your army, but he would have done better obeying you and joining up.

[@Baraz_Red]

Your crazy BattleBorn lords did occupy the enemy while you sieged. Hilarious.

[@RandomZeroGravity]

20:36 Try not to go down next time, cause you are the King now when you go down, the moral of the troops go down massively. They get intimidated easily by the enemy.

When seiging a castle you should build a ballista and use it yourself to shoot archers.

[@arcanethink]

That's totally normal. Same happens to the enemies. What do you expect ? It's still great though. Just create party again and in no time they'll pop up with 100 units.

[@theinconsistentgamers7682]

Something I intend to try is see if I can train an entire army of peasants and take a a castle with them. It would be fun to see you do that on video as can't record my escapades.

[@TheGeorgb83]

The AI is actually quite impressive. It seems the AI commanders are utilizing the tactic skill tree. You can see the difference between high level and low level commanders. I guess, it makes sense to murder enemy commanders when you take them prisoner. Their new commanders start at level 1 and are useless.

[@CloneUnit-sq2vs]

You should use your bow and shoot cav horses for headshots as they run at you to instantly drop them i think their forward momentum gives you extra damage

[@jenisonvilla9211]

Keep it up this is awsome! I just got this game with the discount you linked. Super fun to play my laptop isn't the best but still really fun at low settings.

[@MishaPepyaka]

They hate you because you probally should wait until they all vote about whom you should give the cities and then you need to do final decision about it. Don't give castles right after you take them, wait until game asks you about whom you want to give that city.

Can't wait for command/tactics to work during sieges. For the moment, I'll just watch your videos. :P

[@poppashean4616]

Should divid your army groups and give them specific orders. Achers cover everyone firing on the walls, footmen go left, infantry right, calvary center. And when they take off in the wrong direction order them to hold position while the 10 men break the interior door down. I know it is early access and while this works in theory it may be too much for the gane right now. Just suggestions.
