I'm pretty sure you can hold festvels for your fiefs just like the lords, if the prosperity is low enough.

I haven't seen anything like that but that would make sense if that is the case

On top of this, after a bit more playing, it seems the rhodoks are a little overpowered comparing to the other factions

The misson to train native troops for a lord still exist

Another suggestion:
I managed to become the lord of Jelkala but raising troops from the town still took forever despite it being rich. Maybe towns and castles should train troops faster or in a bigger quantity so it makes more sense recruiting from them.

Yeah and only being able to recruit Rhodok troops when I'm a Nordic lord can be a little frustrating, maybe towns can recruit the starting faction's troops and the conquering faction's troops as well, as a choice for the lord. For example, if the Swadians captured Sargoth, you could recruit Swadian and Nordic troops from it.

Towns train the higherst quantity, then villages then castles. Castles have the highest quality troops then towns then villages, you can hold festivals in your villages when the prosperity is extremely low. It takes a while for fiefs to increase their recruitable pop that is intentional to make battles more important, and make it more difficult for Lords to recover I might tweek it in the future but changes will be minimal.
@Captain Obvious thanks for the bug reports. You have some really good ideas, hopefully I can get to some of them.

No Problem, I'll keep bugs and ideas rolling when I see/think of them

Troops should now be assigned to the right class as of 0.1 I'm may have missed some but I think I got the majority.

maybe make it so that the player can be a king from the start?

Also Vlad, a quite major issue I'm seeing with starting with the renown to automatically become a vassal is that your renown is so high that you can't get missions from other lords (rarely) to further increase your renown and relation with said Lord. This may be the reason that there are so many bandits at the start of the game (because I think that bandits and deserters are based off your renown number). I'll add it to the list as well as crossing out the solved bugs.

I don't like the idea of starting as a king at all, it takes the fun out of working your way up from the bottom. Possibly as a start up option but defiantly not the only one.

I saw your response, so I'll put it here for yo to think over more :)
Would like ability to have my wife join my warband with my kids.

Why would you want your wife in your party? Surely it would be better and safer if she stayed in your castle and be able to use all the features with her.

Because I want a Battle Family, like Band of Celtic/Gaelic warriors. Where woman & men fought together. Eventually all the family fought together. Even the Spartan woman were trained to fight.

Back in those days I am sure that recruits were more than plentyful. I would like to see at least a minimum of 50-75 recruits offered. Yes I also think that there are too many bandits as the game grows. 200+ banddits are too many unless you allow for bigger armies in the Lords' command.
