I think we got a jumper. Nope all good he walked back from the ledge.

[@rockybalboa5611]

That's surprising. I thought there must be calculation how many troops I have in the party to snake into the city.

[@pibble9207]

I believe this was a factor in Warband

[@rockybalboa5611]

@@pibble9207 I also think So because when you come with 1000 army than City entrance should be high alert.

Hero breakdowns are the best.

[@hero_on_youtube]

Thanks!

[@meimphisto]

Ohhh so that's why I never have high chance to sneak into towns because of my renown...

[@RemusKingOfRome]

thanks. As to renown , Surely spies would wear disguises? Wouldn't it be great if you could disguise your guy - peasant with a cart, and just wander in. :D

[@hero_on_youtube]

That's what this chance is representing. If you have high Roguery, you are cleaver enough to make it in.

[@frad9312]

Thanks man!! Love that kind of video, easy, simple, but direct to the point destroyng misticism and unonown myths. You save me so much time to search myself and test it ❤

[@vani3081]

That's crazy, so this is why i cannot sneak into towns in most of my games

[@bennysmall2563]

I’m max stats 330 everthing roguery and ever single town gives me 0 percent chance to sneak in a town

[@hero_on_youtube]

Did you watch the video?

[@jessebaeza3063]

I just started playing bannerlord about 10 days ago I love it so much , there's also much I don't understand or even know how to attempt to understand it either.i never got married from what remembered and I have 3 kids I specifically remember going to war lords and my offer not even moving the bar so I'm thinking I'll never get a wife lol . I been in this girls army trying to marry her but apparently I already have a wife I don't know lol

[@hero_on_youtube]

If there was an offer and you just accepted while doing/thinking something else. There should have been a ceremony cutscene.

[@jessebaeza3063]

@@hero_on_youtube see I never got that im just getting notifications that my children need my attention, then I went to the retreat to talk to the seers or witches whatever they are and if gave me the option to switch to my son I'm like yooooooo wait tf on I just started my conquest. Lol is there a way I can search for her?

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@jessebaeza3063 On PC if you hit the 'N' key on the keyboard, it will bring up the encyclopedia. Not sure how to get there on console. In the encyclopedia you can search for yourself, then find your wife and click on that image. It should tell you where she was last seen.

[@jessebaeza3063]

@hero_on_youtube ok turns out they were my brothers and sisters lol, but I put my brother to government a castle and he got a proposal to marry . Then but the time I noticed bro im like 100k in debt do you have any tips on now I maybe did that to not do it again in my next play through I feel like i ruined this game play bro and I don't want to abandon it

[@lordbread8102]

I prefer to not max out the sneak in chance. While you are held prisoner by a town, all the prisoners in your party still accumulate recruitment level. You don't pay party wages, and don't need to feed your troops.

[@hero_on_youtube]

Sneaking into Towns has nothing to do with whether or not you're a prisoner. The option is only available if the Town is owned by a Faction you are at war with.

[@lordbread8102]

@@hero_on_youtube I thought failing to sneak into a town would cause the player to be captured?

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@lordbread8102 Oh, now I see what you're saying. You use the failed sneak in attempt to intentionally be captured.

[@lordbread8102]

@@hero_on_youtube Yes, it is almost certainly an oversight, but it definitely helps when the Jawwal minor clan has chased you with 130 cav for the past 2 years

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@lordbread8102 Interesting strategy.

[@Tilted_Havoc]

Is there any benefit to sneaking into towns? Can you say for instance, go in and like assassinate a clan leader or something? I've always been curious on doing a shady kind of play through.

[@hero_on_youtube]

I'm not sure, we were discussing it in the discord. I know there is an achievement to complete a quest in a hostile town.

[@pibble9207]

Rescuing allied lords who are in prison there, that’s pretty much it

[@mortache]

Can you breakdown "army movements", especially with ratios of foot/cavalry troops in your and other parties, and horses in your and other party inventory?

[@hero_on_youtube]

I have a movement speed breakdown on my list.

[@mortache]

@@hero_on_youtube while you're at it, maybe also check the army scouting if its not too much

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@mortache Army scouting?

[@mortache]

@@hero_on_youtube as in, whether the viewing distance relies on your own party, or the party with the highest scouting etc etc

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@mortache I can take a look.

[@OneEyedOneHornedGian]

Thanks! So at some point I just can't sneak in at all... 😅

[@hero_on_youtube]

Ignoring the Garrison, if you have 330 Roguery that's 114% chance of sneaking in. If you get over 8700 Renown, if my maths is correct, you will have 0% chance of sneaking in. I think that's celebrity status, so a ball cap and sunglasses won't work.

[@Tom-jc2fq]

Hi Hero, Can you please do the same for "breaking into a siege" When enemy is besieging your town and want to break in to help defenders. Thank you

[@hero_on_youtube]

I'll add it to the list.

[@--Ghost--]

Hi Hero, is it possible for a family member that is married off to become clan leader of another clan? Say you send your daughter or niece to wed a rival and you kill everyone else in their clan? Just curious lol

[@hero_on_youtube]

If everyone else is dead, then she would be a clan leader.

[@sumgui]

Is this in any way correlated to prisoner escape chance form a settlement? IE if I want to keep prisoners in a remote town I am best off with giving that settlement only high tier troops?

[@hero_on_youtube]

This is not related to Prison Escape Chance. It's on my todo list.

[@DngrDan]

Getting a 0% chance every single time after hitting a certain renown level is horseshit. Makes absolutely no sense, especially if your Rogue skill is maxed out.

[@hero_on_youtube]

The idea of renown is that you are recognized for your feats and actions. I agree that Roguery Skill should play a larger role in the chance. And that perk that increases the chance by 50%, should not be a percentage of the chance, but a flat 50% added to the chance. I believe that perk should change so by having it, you would have at least a 50% chance to sneak in.

[@DngrDan]

@@hero_on_youtube I get the lore reasons but meanwhile, you got lords, kings and queens in Game of Thrones sneaking into cities all the time. My name might be famous but very few people are going to know my face, realistically. I just needed the prisonbreak feature to off some political rivals but it's too late for me this playthrough.

[@hero_on_youtube]

@@DngrDan Since you're using mods, find a mod that changes the Sneak In option to something you want. In the vanilla game, sneaking in is something only the player can do.

[@spooksy2099]

Does any town clothing help your chance? Like a hood for instance?

[@hero_on_youtube]

The only things that help your chance are mentioned in the video. I took it straight out of the code.

[@spooksy2099]

@hero_on_youtube thanks for getting back to me, it'd be cool if in a update they made disguise based town clothes that helped you sneak into towns because as mentioned in your video when you have high renown and are max clan tier it's basically impossible to sneak into a town 😅😅

[@mehmeme]

What is the point in sneaking in btw?

[@hero_on_youtube]

Another comment mentioned sneaking into a hostile town to break an ally out of prison. There is also an achievement to do a quest in a hostile town. If you're in hostile territory and need to grab another companion, recruit troops, use the smithy or talk to one of the notables. You can go an entire campaign and never use this feature. I've played several and never once needed to sneak into a town.
