📋 About This Mod

This adds lots of new companions to native M&B: Warband. Ver. 1. 131 Click here to meet the lords & ladies. Companions v. 96 + Diplomacy v3. 1 12 Lords & Ladies - each inspired by 1 faction in the game, with stats based on actual in game lords, so they don't unbalance the game. They each come pre-equiped with faction specific unmodified (i.e. no reinforced/cracked) gear. They cost 15000 denars each to hire, but that's because i don't want them being farmed for their equipment. But if your gearing up to run your own kingdom, you should be building your bank account anyways. Also their high level means they are pretty expensive to have in your army, so they really are meant for player kingdoms who NEED capable lords. They all have unique dialog, based off of real historical/legendary figures from their factions influences. They do have rivalries / people they dislike. The men and women like their same faction influenced opposing gender. The men and women hate their neighbors in a circle of hate as explained in the changelog. 1 Lord & 1 Lady - King grade (probably higher) lord & lady - stronger and more expensive then the others, ideal marshal material. Costs 20000 denars. Their army gets like around 180+ men on it's own, so they're pretty bad ass. When made into fief holders, they receive the title "Marshal" (but aren't actually made the marshal of your army.) 28 Powerful Fighters - Essentially like, troops that don't die in battle, just get knocked out. They are strong, but don't have the skills and attributes necessary to be good lords. 6 Party Skill Master - They won't cost a lot to recruit, but they have high upkeep, because they're level 50, but very low combat stats for their levels. But the game seems to give them much higher stats then i assign them,(i give them 4 strength, when they show up in game they have 12 for some reason) so they can wear decent armor and equip decent weapons, but they wont exactly have the skills and proficiencies to use them very well. Their meant to be put on the bottom of your troop list and kept out of battle, but with larger battle sizes that can be kinda impossible. They also aren't designed to level up really, because they are already well experienced in what they do. Best thing to do is probably assign them to the archer group, or make a group just for them and tell them to wait at the start of battle. 9 Mid-Grade Lords Cheaper then the original lords, not as effective at combat and leading armies, but you could invest time in them to make them better vassals, though it isn't 100% necessary, Cost 6000 denars a piece. Some will have unique titles when made into "lords," so instead of "Lord Soandso" they will be "Something Soandso" . 11 Companions with 'potential': These companions has stats very similar to player progression, so with the right nurturing, you can turn them into very capable lords or warriors.
