Usually when i fight i lead the unit to the top of a hill if there is one and let my archers shoot so the enemy has to come up at me and i charge at the last moment before melee. I use a heavy charger if i need to fight mounted, like against lacers or mass horsemen. I use a board shield and a sword and fight dismounted with a warbow as well. 5 party members all with 50+ armour and helmets, all mounted all good with one handed weapons, except for botok, as hes good with crossbows. I have mostly footmen/sharpshooters/mamelukes and some skirmishers/archers with a larger amount of footmen to form the line and a few swarbain knights. I train them up on bandits and stuff first. That's all I can lead and they aren't recruits. Later on economy will improve with taxes from fiefs/castles/towns you own.Thats great, except i never am given them and when i am, 5 times the number of enemies come to take it back in days.

You can turn down difficulty in 'options'. I'm loving the battles, but the rest of this game is pretty bad.Ħ0 men is not that much, especially if it's all recruits. And do they ever run out of troops in their cites? If not, read my post again. Its absolute bs the lords just get troops from cities i had one guy come back three times in a week with 100 guys. I screwed up and loaded a save and it was from 2 hours ago. Why is it so fecking hard to get your own fief or start your own faction isn't that the most fun part of the game?Īlso it never autos saves.

Sieges are also as you get a grand total of one siege tower that everyone has to run up and get caught in a choke point. Lords never give you fiefs no matter how many enemies you single handedly kill, its nigh on impossible to raise your relationship with a lord quickly and you spend hours and hours accomplishing nothing except throwing troops you paid for away for absolutely no gain, as the sultan LOVES to give fiefs to himself, even tho he did nothing to get them. Lords can get troops from cities, thats where they got them, they dont magically appear
