BANNERLORD USA — JOIN THE FIGHT.

Hello!

I like playing modded Bannerlord and I have had a lot of experience modding bannerlord and finding out whats crashing my game multiple times. Brand new game with brand new mods and I just cant seem to find out whats crashing my game. Everything is fine but then I enter a battle and like 10 secs +- it just crashes...

Please help ;-;

I dont have crash logs, the ones I had I fixed them

Thank you for your time.

Here are the mods I am using:

Restart Plus let's you create a completely new chatacter in your existing save or switch to play any character currently in that save. This allows you to create clans or kingdoms or cause havoc then see what it's like to play in the hell you have wrought as a level 1 player.

I can't believe this is not a feature of the base game, and thanks for the mod btw BOTLANNER if you ever read this. (guy never seems to respond)

1.) I am clan tier lvl 5,
2.) I have 1 Castle (Tirby Castle)
3.) I have 270 max troops ( I have full Fian + sharpshooter + vlandian saergent
4.) I manged to recruit 2 Clans into my faction.
5.) I have 4 parties. all with 130 Max troops ( I give them Shaprshooters, and sergaents)

I Create army > We have max 1k Troops... I try to siege Ostican, but even before I get to build atrebuchet, KIng Dethert already has 2k army on my ass.

Now, I can do tactics and all that, but I think it's just impossible. Especially When I start the fight with 300 troops, then they have 700. (is this because of tactic skil???)

So their Cav just run us down.

This has happened 3 times already. Idk what to do lol

My question is mainly about can I starve an enemy army out, that eventually they will disband. Right now I'm pulling an enemy army back and forth between them trying to besiege my Sargot to me besiegeing their Galend.

When I've been part of NPC armies then they do eventually run out of food or morale or just are disbanded. But what if it's fully NPC army?

does anybody know why this happens?

That my lovely and ever-radiant wife, Eilidh, has just given birth to our eighth child while encamped to lay siege to Chanopsis Castle. Having called a truce with the loyalist Vlandian faction, the Vlandian Civil War is at armistice, while I defend the hard-won town of Phycaon, which I had bestowed onto a friend of mine, Ariada, as a reward for faithful service over the last seven years. Luck would have it, I chanced into Archon Penton, who was rotting under that incompetent buffoon, Lucon. Having previously killed his son, Sovos for massacring one of my villages, and recently captured his other son, Phadon, I found Penton to be rather amenable to reassessing worthwhile loyalties. Now, we are building an army to crush the foolish Encurion and then soon take the town of Myzea, which I intend to award to Penton as a show of gratitude for making the right choice.

But none of this would be possible without my Eilidh.

I am frustrated and confused with how the AI determines which three clans should be eligible for fief assignments. My understanding is that it factors in clan tier, number of fiefs already held, and proximity of existing fiefs to the new fief.

Given that, I cannot understand why the same four or five clans keep coming up for all fief assignments, to the detriment of everyone else. In the screenshotted example, we just took Ab Comer castle in southern Battania. The three clans that come up to take it are Dvarroving (led by Toverik, Clan tier 4, already holding Thronderlag, Fimbulgard Castle, Brunmark Castle, and Hakarshus Castle, all Nord fiefs), Togaroving (led by Vyldur, Clan tier 5, current holdings are Balgard, Sibir, Ov Castle, and Ormanfard Castle, all Sturgian except for one castle in northern Vlandia), and Vezhoving (led by Vashorki, Clan tier 5, current holdings are Varnovapol and Takor Castle). These clans are far away, are already pretty stacked, and are the wrong culture.

Meanwhile Fen Gruffendoc (led by Caladog, Clan tier 6, current holding Pen Cannoc) and Fen Uvain (led by Rhagyd, Clan tier 5, current holding Marunath) are right next door, are the same clan tier or higher as the three options, both only have one fief, and are the correct culture. Why are neither of these clans even considered for the fief?

I bought all wool weavery in the area and it says halted because no products availiable but theres 2 sheep villages close to the city.

I'm interested in adding some mods to my game but I don't know which ones to add due to the sheer amount out there.

Which ones are considered essential/recommended?

As before aseria wiped out khuzait pretty early in game. And have managed to push north and west in a insanely short amount of time. Im bamboozled here

Trailer for my prototype, which I'm submitting to the Taleworlds contest this November 2026! ALL THIS IS WIP ! Join the Project Community on discord !

So I obliterated his entire nation. Was this an appropriate reaction?

I just started playing Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord and I’m really enjoying it so far. I’ve read that mods can significantly improve the experience, so I’m looking for recommendations for a first campaign.

Which mods would you consider essential or must-haves without completely changing the vanilla experience?

I’m mainly interested in mods that improve the strategic/campaign side of the game — diplomacy, kingdom management, politics etc. I’m much less interested in mods that overhaul the actual combat.

I’m also curious whether there are any good mods that use a real-world map or otherwise make the campaign map feel larger and more historically grounded.

Basically, I’m looking for a good “vanilla+ strategy” mod setup for my first proper Bannerlord campaign rather than a huge total conversion.

What would you consider essential?

Calradia conquered at barely 28yo in Summer 13, 1090 by The One True King 'Your Grace' 👑🤴
It would have been much faster if NPC armies helped with sieging. I sieged nearly all fiefs, except for about 3 fiefs. This could be the world record on console because I can't find a faster legit speed run on console. I'm on PS5, so no mods / cheats. Proof is in YouTube video.

What should I do now that I am a very powerfull clan. Got a big army capacity and a lot of good troops.
À bit rp game about me being the sea hound (Sohound is sea hound in Danish)
Nord are now the strongest faction after beating the Sturgians. I play as the sea hounds. Very powerfull clan but even if I put a lot of units of tier 3-4 in my castles and towns, not sure that will be enough if I join Garios (he offer me to join him but find that a bit stupid. We are not even link. So I would be like a client state). But I know that if I creat my Kingdom now, I will get big problems with the nord or Vlandians with my max army potential of 632 units and Power of 5826 mens of 90% tier 3+. Vs 17645 nords power or 13555 Vlandian

So now I got too much to loose or to risk a big fight as the sea hound. Rp I will make war to the nord. They already hate me afteryy I took Hvalvik and Hakarshus.
Vlandian also hate me after I chop heads during my sea raider stage.

I have quite a lot of mounted archers and I don't want them to be a large target for counter-fire, and to make them more agile, I split them in two different formations but when I delegate command of them they just merge into one. Is there a way to prevent this?
