You will need more however, so the choice is yours. That said, some troops like Vanskerry Jarls, Huscarls, Bladesmen and Kierguard are very effective in fighting during sieges. This makes them legitimate monsters in every battle.
The reason that I espouse heavy cavalry is because they are close to Level 60. Yes, it is colossally expensive, but then, you do have enterprises in every town, right? In addition, it may help to start out holding a castle for another lord (though this guarantees bad relations with that faction) because you can store your ultra-expensive cavalry in a castle until you need them. If you want to start your own kingdom, you need some pretty beefy troops. When you start out, this will be more specifically your army. This kept me from getting slammed on all fronts and let me focus on Fierdsvain and Sarleon.Ī kingdom in Warband is only as good as its army. When I founded Gondobar (my kingdom), I had awesome relationships with Ravenstirn and D’Shar, as well as high Right to Rule (over 60). This will keep everyone from coming after you on Day One.
Make sure you send each one out to boost your right to rule. You want 15 relations or more with as many lords as you can.Įstablishing your right to rule is also done by sending out companions. Do tasks and quests and boost your relations with them or, if you capture them in battle, release them immediately for some relationship gains. However, the honorable, chivalrous and even martial lords are good targets. Ignore the ones that are bad-tempered as they are a pain to deal with anyway. However, I’d strive to get 15 relations with all the nice lords.
Screw the kings, they will hate you anyway when you declare your own kingdom. Included with this are your relations with individual lords. The first thing you need to do is establish your right to rule, your army, your logistics and support and your war chest. While not impossible, if you don’t take these basic steps, you will find your path to world domination about as long as that of Napoleon (and see how far he made it, poor bastard couldn’t even get out of European Russia). Before you start taking cities and castles and declaring the glory of your marvelous Empire, there are a few things you need to do.
