A guard locked me out of my own bedroom.

[Holding These Alligators Down]

I needed to save so i went back to the bedroom which Sir Radzig had given me as a reward and a guard wakes me up around 2AM and demands i pay a fine for trespassing.
I pay the fine because it's only 10 gold and walk out of the room and the guards locks the door.

Now in order to use MY OWN bed i have to lockpick the door which i can't do because there's always guards standing outside the room.

WTF?

Seems you may have been a naughty naughty Henry.

Go back to the mill to sleep?

Must be a glitch.

Hmm yeah that’s weird. I have heard of this torch issue causing problems in other areas as well, like after someone had sat down for dice the guard still harrassed them.

I don't think they ever give Henry an actual bedroom. Only a place in a shed outside the castle.
I think you got the wrong door, peasant.

Iirc I had issues when I went to sleep with the door open.

It was the shed outside the castle. I went to the marker on the map and I've slept there before no problem.

I experienced the dice problem in Rattay, so I instead play dice in the evenings up by the inn past the Upper Gate. The guys there have more groschen for me anyways. Ledetchko and the inn past Rattay on the hill near the flowers are some of the richest spots to fleece some tasty coin in dice. Sasau has been a bust for me, sometimes they only have enough for one game.

Beware, dice in Ledetchko will get you nabbed by the catchpoles too. Dorks come around complaining about a torch but it's inaudible because the game focuses sound on ambience and the dice players. Next thing you know, you've broken the law.

I just had a weird one, where Bernard had given me a key to go get some stuff “take whatever you want” he literally said. So I went in and began helping myself.

First odd thing, down in the lower right it still said “Steal” and “Rob”. That was confusing. But I started taking things, no problems. Then before I was done, a guard came in and wanted to arrest me. I ended up intimidating him to get out of it, but that didn’t make any sense. Bernard gave me permission to be i there. This reminds of the situation where Hans told me to take stuff from his chest as we both stood in his room. I turned and opened the chest and a guard came in accusing me of stealing.

There’s something a little glitchy about the guard’s behavior not recognizing when there are exceptions to their normal behavior rules.

Radzig Kobyla gives Henry his own room in the castle at Rattay.
He also gets the hunters lodge as his own house completing the quest Hare Hunt..

There is ONE chest in the room that you can unlock and "Open" instead of "Rob" or "Steal" - that is what he is referring to when he says "take what you want" - from that one chest, not the entire room - lol

And BTW, that chest is always marked as "Open" - so, if you can sneak in early in game, and unlock it, you can get some free gear that is not marked as stolen.

I had that problem too. It seems to have to do with the torch at night. Guard says something stupid and locks the room. I just restored the game as I had just saved by sleeping.

I don't remember what's the exact deal with Bernard but I didn't have such problems. I guess I paid attention to that 'steal' indicator. The situation itself implies that you are only allowed into castle armory as a soldier, to pick some arms for personal use, not to fill your saddlebags with armor for sale.
With Hans though, I definitely remember him saying which exact things you have to take from the chest and why.

Captain Bernard literally said “take whatever you need, you deserve it”. I took him at his word! I mean, this was seconds after he said we had to move NOW or all was lost! Henry was frantically trying to ask thisnsomdiernornthat guard where the armory was, but all anyone wanted to talk about was how life was in Rattay. . . Good GOD man!! The kingdom will be lost I need to know where the armory is, stop talking about the refugees!!

Then Henry got in there, having lost precious seconds to having done the fandango at the armory door with multiple guards coming out, and frantically started grabbing weapons. “Steal”?? By the HEAVANS!!! Henry has seen seen his horse pebbles on the ramparts of this very keep, now is NOT the time to get distracted by the minor foibles in the game, Henry you fool, HURRY!!!! Henry panicked (I was fine). His arms were full of polearms, two helmets stacked on his head, and then it was time and Bernard’s men were moving out already, oh NO!!

As it was, Henry went to Vranik with most of what he needed. Almost forgot pants, and DID forget the padded coif to go under the mail.

Then when Vranik was over, a very exhausted and still shaking Henry dragged himself back to Hanush with a clue in one hand and all his old gear in a big old sack dragging behind him He handed the clue over and looked around for a place to sit and get changed when suddenly everyone around him cried “ TO TALMBERG!!!”

Oh ♥♥♥♥!!! WAIT FOR ME!!!

And off Henry went to Talmberg, still wearing the hodepodge of armor he managed to get from the Rattay armory and still dragging behind him a sack of all his old gear. He was so heavily encumbered. he could neither sprint nor jump.

Very bad, your pers listen rainbow orator too much.

@Jonnie so I checked, you can take anything/everything from one particular chest in the armory. The one Bernard gives you key for. Everything else I guess belongs to other soldiers - always trust the 'steal' prompt, Henry knows best.
