Favorite Kingdoms Tier List

[Prussian]

I'm wondering what peoples favorite kingdoms are in this game. Your decision can be based off of unit composition, lore, or literally anything. Try to give reasons for atleast the first three.

Heres mine:
1. Vlandia - I love their use of powerful Crossbows, and low tier infantry with powerful two handers like Billhooks. I mainly play them in multiplayer do to them being so well rounded.
2. Empire - I love their Lore and overall aesthetic. I'm a massive fan of Byzantium.
3. Sturgia - Its a viking-based kingdom what else is there to say?

4. Battania
5. Aserai
6. Khuzait

[Pititan]

1. Empire- purple, legionnaires, roman, "nothing can defeat the empire", Byzantine, Rhagaea... What's not to love.

2. Vlandia- I don't like Derthert... But it's medieval Western Europe complete with knights, dismounted heavy infantry, and crossbowmen.

3. Battania- Celtic faction with footman and probably the best archers ingame. Their the Robin hoods of calradia

4. sturgia- haven't played them yet, but I like their helms..

5. Aserai- leader is Sala-adin... Really want to play as a desert boi eventually... I feel their troop game is a lil weak though.

6. Khuzait- ♥♥♥♥ horse archers...

"I am trash and need a no-skill faction to win"
Khuzait players are filth.

You seem upset. Maybe go out side and get some fresh air.

Wait... Not today! Maybe after the pandemic, eh?

1. Vlandia - I've spent hours editing troop gear to make them a more historically accurate and generally more aesthetic. Nothing beats commanding 3-4 separate infantry units with 2-3 separate archer units making a dynamic front line and ending it all with a roaring cav charge.

2. Khuzait - Were my first faction to play since horse archery in Bannerlord is actually fun this time. But the game was too easy even on realistic spamming 200 horse archers and I grew bored of riding in a circle. Their aesthetic is top notch too.

99. Battania - Dirty subhumans all from the same family tree. Pretty much just hill men. Their dialog should really just be a series of grunts.

mount archer are nice but expensive, and i hate loose mounted archer in hideout/siege without their horse...hello you v paid a warhorse for nothing...

i would say battania and sturgia and empire but with bow :)
your infantry need shield, and bow are better....the javelin work well if you have a bit patience and dont use charge :p

crossbow really sux in rof....just try to defend with 500 crossbow against 500archer attacking in siege, crossbow always loose...and lance are uneffective in game...so cavalry melee dont exploit their strenght.

most important thing is if you use 2h infantry is to create a separate group in your parties... separate from other shield infantry, because without shield they are dead meat agaisnt archer and you will loose them,
but if you keep them in reserve and wait for infantry, they will dig massive hole in ennemy flank.

a big problem for me is i want to play a certain army, i hate to have to cross all the map to go back in my land for have the army i wanted, there should be a way to convert troops in settlement to your own faction by training...

That doesn't make sense. Aren't samurai just swordsmen? People play Khuzait because of overpowered Horse Archers, which is so far away from the concept of "Samurai" that people even joke about the Khuzaits having no honor :P

[Chara H Dreemurr]

I tend to mix empire/vladian troops to get a pretty solid army.
Using leggionary for the frontline, mix of Banner knight/Cataphract, mounted empire archers for flanking and ofc, the vladian sharpshooter to fight at distance.
I think this is a pretty good mix but i agree mostly with you.

1 Vladian.
2 Empire
3 Aserai

Depends on the century, at first Samurai considering ranged weaponry dishonorable, archery however was gradually accepted because it actually took some skill and became standard part of their training, especially horse archery.

However they didn't use compact war bows and had their own way of using a bow on horse.

Huh. Thanks. The more you know. But still, weeb culture usually associate samurai with katanas and honor and cool sword drawing techniques thanks too misrepresentation on animes. This runs counter to the Khuzait idea of run while shooting the enemy and never engage in melee :P

Pancentric Siberian Steppes people like the Mongols which the Khuzait are based upon aren't "Asian"..... they are a Urialian people..... They have more in common with Slavic peoples than they do with Asians --;

I dunno man... my mongol friends do consider themselves as "asian"

BATTANIA!

Awesome shoulder armour with their various pelts and furs, and a tartan aesthetic that I adore. Javelin skirmishing and forest combat, along with the best damn Hardwood in Calradia. That and their nobles make for the mightiest husbandos, with Muinser having 250 in every vigour stat+athletics as well as potentially coming with the Rhompflstomp polearm for oneshotting every horse in the game.



STURGIA for all the fishing towns and ensuing sturgeon puns.

My fav is the empire
Second favorite would be the sturgians, but they are based on the Kievan Rus not vikings

[AccelToWinYT]

I like to use empire t6 archers and its cavs units.

You do realize that Samurai were first and foremost mounted archers that only fought in melee once they got off the horse - either voluntarily or not?
