Is there any trick to trading beyond purchasing goods where they have the related production buildings and selling them elsewhere? I bought a bunch of wood at a place with like 3 woodcutter camps and sold them halfway across the map to a place with a bowyer but the amount of money I gained didn't feel worth it.

This game has a pretty good soundtrack. Some of the tracks are reminiscent of the CK2 soundtrack which is also good.

I think even more than just the soundtrack the sound effects themselves are really good. Earlier I killed a dude with a bowshot and the resulting gurgling sound from what I can only assume was getting hit through the throat was pretty godamn intense.

yea the sound design is excellent as well, the weapon hits sound meaty and convincing and go a long way to compensate for the lack of animations. Game's got juice

What difficulty? By day 6 my front line dudes are usually all in padded at the minimum with some levels under their belt and maybe a tier 2 weapon or two. Raiders are doable at that point, but still dangerous. But I only play on veteran.

I hope they release an expansion pack someday that adds land ownership and medieval politicking etc. It doesn't need to be literally mount and blade but It would be cool to be able to stake a claim and grow in other ways besides your bank account/renown and your men's gear.

Flails are baller as gently caress especially in the early game when you'll find random rear end in a top hat enemies with no or minimal head protection. Lash them down like the pathetic worms they are. The fact that they ignore shield defensive bonuses is even sweeter. Just run straight through the enemy shield wall and knock their skulls in. Of course you only get 3-4 swings before your fatigue is capped.

That's almost certainly going to be a thing you'll have to look to mods to cover. Devs have been pretty adamant that land ownership is not going to be a thing.

Ah, I didn't know that, I hadn't really followed on the official forums or devblogs or anything. Are they considering at least adding some modding tools?

Just encountered a game breaking bug. The menu is bugged out and goes straight to the load game dialog no matter what. Can't save or even exit properly.

The game has decided to punish me for save scumming :v:

Oh hey, you're hired! Oh wait, you've got a club foot? You're fired, take your 0 gold compensation package and get outta here.

I'm a blasphemer too, I hate losing brothers, especially to just bad luck. Like oh, you get to start at the base of the mountain the enemy archers are perched upon, enjoy having death rained upon you while you scramble to escape.

Flails are great for taking down the fuckers that love to throw up shieldwall after shieldwall and the morons that decide that they only need a dirty rag wrapped around their head to complement their chainmail.

Looking at you, skeletons and your infinite fatigue. Instead of using flails though I like to give my archers and pikemen longaxes if I have them, so I can break their shields down asap, but having 4 longaxes on the back rank is a luxury build for the early to mid game.

I like this game, but man am I struggling with it; not with the battles or RPG mechanics, but with maintaining a steady flow of money to keep my mercs going. I'm having the hardest time finding a foot hold without bankrupting my group, especially in the beginning. Anyone got any advice? :smith:

Do one skull contracts only until everyone is wearing better than a sack cloth for armor. Then when you have decent equipment (padded leather or better on the dudes who are getting beat on) start taking some two skull contracts.

Also you shouldn't need to hire more than 8 dudes for the first several days.
