It's around here that you will want to join a kingdom. The hardest part of the games is when you have got enough troops that bandits are hard to catch and don't yield enough rewards to keep you going.

You also want to watch how many you have, if you have more troops then it takes more to pay all their wages and to buy enough food, it also gets harder to keep morale up when you have a lot of troops. If you just go from village to village recruiting you can get a lot but you will mostly just have a bunch of untrained peasants who won't be that useful in battle.

You have to manage your troops too though. It will raise your weapons skills if you do it for a while too which is usually what I do on a new game after not playing for a while. If you still want to practice combat yourself then finding a great way to both practice and train your weapon skills is to go to a city and use the practice brawls in the arena to get the hang of combat. Mount and Blade is an awesome game.Īs others in the thread have said it takes a bit of grinding. Once you get more experience, you can try more difficult and fun things, like running a big merchant company, buying land, becoming a bandit. Allying with a faction is the easiest way. Now, either ally yourself with them, work for them, work with the usurper of the king to make him king or rebel and try to make your own nation. From there, choose one faction and work for it, to build up reputation. After you have a small group of soldiers, start going to Mayors, Elders, Kings and Lords to get quests. At this point, you may want to buy Mercenaries from Inns/Taverns. If you do not, do a few ride bys (as attacking from horse does a fair bit of damage) and even if you can't kill all of the enemies, they will eventually reach your soldiers and you will win! If you have a bow (or musket), ride up the enemy, and take pot-shots.

As for you, when you start, always ride your horse. If you have archers, hold your men on a hill or something and let the enemy come to them. When fighting, make sure to control your soldiers properly. If you see bandits with the equal or lesser amount of soldiers, attack them. Go from village to village and recruit followers. There are many stories, and many more added in Sword and Fire, but you can still do fuck all and have your own awesome stories.
