How to get 900 renown for Kingdom?
First off, this is just a one-off complaint, I'm not one of those people who whinges that the game is crap because they think a rock is a slightly dark shade or something stupid.

OK, I've taken a castle off a dying kingdom and I had a lot of renown because for most of the game I was one-manning 20 man armies of looters and minor clans. I managed to get to tier 3 a while ago and I just got to 450 after wandering around with an army of ten beating up looters. Then I think, OK, just the entire game so far to go... Why the hell can I no longer create a kingdom at tier 3? Besides, there is now no reward in the main quest whatsoever because you can remove the timer and create a "sandbox kingdom" at tier 4 anyway.

I've tried changing the beta, because I wanted to change my banner and then because of this, but it took 4 hrs to update because it needs 3gigs to download for some reason. Am I missing an option or have the devs forced me to use cheats to save 400 days of in-game time?

Mount and blade: Grindlord at the moment sadly.

Your post bounced around too much and I'm too sleep deprived to remember things at the moment (so I may have missed something) but:
1. In 1.4.2, the game currently requires clan tier 4 to make a kingdom.
2. You can get renown fairly quickly by fighting outnumbered/large numbered battles and winning. With a particular perk that increases renown from battles (charm 50, I believe), you can easily gain 60 renown per battle. I used this strategy to farm the 6,000 renown needed for clan tier 6 and it did not take too long (probably a couple hours a day for a few days while also doing other stuff).

Show your scars. 20% more renown. The most I ever got was 10 renown and that was on the one-manning phase I mentioned. I only got 3-5 ish renown per battle even when I was outnumbered 2 to 1 with my 10 man party.

Outnumbered AND large numbered battles. I don't know the exact numbers required, but when I was doing this I had a party of ~200 (no army members because that lowers renown gain for some reason) and I was regularly fighting enemy armies of ~300+.

I *think* I recall gaining 60 renown for battles where I had only ~100 troops against other parties with ~150-200 ish troops (but that could just be me being sleep deprived).

Edit: Obviously some of these numbers are basically unobtainable when you're still clan tier 4, but you're not looking for 60 renown per battle and more for like 30-40 renown per battle (which is pretty easily obtainable with a party of ~80 ish fighting parties of 100+).

I don't know where I could fins 150-200 armies without getting murdered by the kingdom, and the last time I fought a battle like that it was 75 vs 110 and I only got 10 renown and had to make peace so this probably won't work but I'll try it.

Edit: just seen your edit, yeah that's not true.

Oh actually, I attacked an army I outnumbered, 100 vs 80 and got 15.3 renown... This could work...

Get Bannerlord Tweak, up the renown gain from battles to like 1.5 or 2.0 instead of 1.0 = profit.

Is that a mod? Don't really want mods
