Breaking lords out of prison
How do you do this. I speak with the prison guard and try to do a prison break but it does nothing.

I am also having this problem... It almost seems to be a feature that isn't in the game yet, despite having the copy-paste dialogue from Warband to attempt it. When you choose to take the dungeon keys by force, the guard says "Help! Prison Break!" and the conversation ends, but nothing happens at all. The guard continues standing at his post doing his idle animation, nobody comes to help him, and he cannot be attacked and killed. Even if you bribe your way in, talking to an imprisoned lord will simply have the lord say "I am not allowed to talk to you", and immediately end the conversation.

Yep. Confirming prison break doesn't work. I was planning to break a lady from khuzait captivity. First I tried to sneak into enemy town in disguise. The prison guard just says "get lost vile beggar" like any town guard and there's no dialogue options whatsover.
I even went as far as ending my merc contract with Sturgia in order to legally get in town.
And then I got the exact same situation as described here:

It's not new content really. The entire prison break mechanic (including the exact same dialogue) is transitioned from the first game - pretty sure it was there even before Warband. Only the prison interior is different - with more guards inside. Funny thing, one of the troops inside behaved exactly like a tavern merc - he offered me to hire him and a bunch of his comrades

XD yeah.

i think they are gona change it quite abit like being able to pay for there freedom and such.
they have all the basic stuff n so on for lords being captured, and so just escaping.
but they gona add in like companion capture n stuff i think as well as being able to influence the guard to let them go by lieing n stuff.

they are a small company what they have done so far is really good. had 2 massive battles the other day my 300 men VS 600 and then another 600 while also Seiging. a city to then take on another 290.

but yeah they are a small company they can't afford to hang out to dry there player base unlike EA. but what i think they are doing is using us like beta testers, insted of having a proper closed one because they took some time trying to get the engine to work well,
as noted there is alot of disabled content in the base game to presume they are fixing everything up making it playable as they insert the new content like Gangs and workshops and caravans and the kingdom control and so on. i think they working on the kingdom screen
so far and the factions to level them out to how they should feel, currently they had issues with the AI siegeing and so on, just fixing them up idk what they doing next.

There is another problem about prisoners. I have my own empire and there is a city who belongs to another faction in my empire has a prisoner. How can i take that prisoner from that city? I mean i'm the king I should be able to do that.

Idk, but it doesnt seem like you can do much with prisoners.

Only solution is kicking the faction that owns the city from your kingdom and then don't select the new owner go to city take the prisoner and select the new owner. But this costs you a faction.

Is there ANYTHING about that done? in a new update whatsoever?

I am a King, running my own frking empire, crushing whoever crosses my path and the empire imprisons some young women from factions that dont longer exist. I wanna get them out, get the other factions on my side and ruin the empire. However, there is absolutely NOTHING I can do to get them out - I mean, reading that topic not even taking the city would help. So what's up with that?

December now and you still can't seem to get prisoners out of the dungeon, nor talk to them. Literally cannot finish a quest that requires the prisoner that was captured by a member of my army. This is broken imo.

Further to that I just took ownership of the castle where my target was imprisoned, all of a sudden all 7 prisoners are gone from the dungeon!
