i know people might not have realized but in a new game no faction has a marshall and after playing two months in game without one being appointed in any of the factions its safe to say it wont happen by itself
so factions are going to just do petty squabbles and probably never take actual ground from one another
to fix this join one of the factions as a merc, activate cheat menu, force them all into a feast and then when the faction goals says need new marshall go to any lord and ask to be a marshall
youll be marshall for exactly five seconds afterwhich every faction on the map would suddenly elect a marshall... and campaigning season can begin
I noticed how after around thirty days, the lord I enlisted in pretty much just sat in his castle. Will try this advice out.
One issue I also noticed for me at-least, is quite a lot of the starting options for either family heirlooms/skills do not all work. For me, the strange great sword, and bow and arrow gave me a script error along with gaving me nothing (was using Warband Script Expanded). The only ones that work are a few of the skills (in regards to strength and agility), heirloom horse, heirloom armor, bodyguards, and money.
Rest in peace LorDric, thank you for the great mods!
Over 1000 days into the game. Have conquered almost all the new factions on the mainland. I've got over 5 million denars in my treasury, and another 5 million in my cash-on-hand. I can field an army of over a thousand soldiers; but the biggest challenges of such a large army are food and rest. Right now I am concentrating on the Kalua faction; I've got them down to just one town, but they have a huge army there, so it is a game of cat-and-mouse while I pick off their armies when the lords "come out to play".
Lor passed away on July 21. He will be missed. His mods are here for us to enjoy.
Aw man. That is so sad to hear. I saw his old post that he would be working on more Empire mods. Damn...
Too much lag to be playable
I find this mod VERY playable. The lag on the map is the result of the richness of features that make the mod so interesting. There is so much going on in towns and villages, in the interactions between factions, plus all the checks for food, skills (such as hunting, fishing, wandering, etc.), and other features, that the mod pushes the limits of our computers. IMHO, the lag on the map is a small price to play for the richness of the game play; after all, the map is just a way to get between the features of the mod.
mod seems interesting but what makes it really annoying are map graphics and all the menu textures...
I tried to play a bit and it lags and its lag is the worst thing....
Mod has a ton of features and all of them are great
Hey, so I got it running with the Steam version of the game just by running the WSE_loader in the mods folder. but I'm having an issue with textures I guess (that's all I can really assume it is). I get a lot of texture flickering and menu flickering when I play the mod. It works, but it's an eyesore. Is this the reason why it's not compatible with the steam version? Or is this fixable?
