It appears, this channel is about capturing the epic and tactical moments of Bannerlords incredible multiplayer battle experiences. Recently, with a Roleplay Twist
Yes it is aha. We’ve changed it now. So you have to drop your spear if you change weapon. Making spears a lot less used like this. It’s very silly that players can have a spear on their back
People be talking about the intense battle, formations, and all that. For me, the synchronised marching on 8:27 is cool enough to give me goosebumps. The cohesion in the line is just 👌
At the start of the video you claim this to be the ultimate medieval milsim. I dare say it can be even more realistic, bringing extra challenges to the commanding part of the game mode. How? By only allowing to communicate by voice in planning pre battle. As if it were a war council preparing for battle. You'd need to think of a way to signal certain troops to execute part of the plan (like a flanking force). In real life this would've happened with a horn, for example. I dont know if game mechanics allow something of the sort, but think about how awesome that would be. It's a suggestion, I'd really like to know your or anyone's thoughts on this. Of course, units can still communicate amongst themselves...
It is, the best medieval milsim. Otherwise I’d play the alternative ;) You got some great ideas, I always do say if it had in game voice chat and that was the only way to communicate. That would be awesome. It would also need a morale and stamina system. Then it would be perfect aha :)
@Benoniyoutube It is via discord now? If so, it would be simple enough I think... one channel for the planning, another for the unit you lead. No switching until after the battle
Normally battle lines wouldn't be just be about 1-2 men deep like we saw in the battle at around 10:00. To be honest, the round shields kept a much better line than you guys did in that fight, and I'd assume the opponent saw that and pulled the classic fake retreat to make space for a counter charge. That was amazing.
I definitly agree, hats off to them. They smashed our line very well. Love comments like yours. These battles in my opinion are some of the closest we have to understanding this type of warfare. However there are many reasons why it also isn’t realistic.
I can tell you now there is a better way to experience a medieval battle. Dont get me wrong, this does look impresive - definately a lot of fun from the looks of things. But as a reenactor, I dont think anything comes closer to experiencing the sounds, the smells, the feeling of a horses hooves thundering underfoot than partaking in a reenactment of a historical battle (other than maybe living through a real one). I'm lucky enough to be able to say that I know what its like to look up and see a dark cloud of arrows falling towards you, to feel the awe inspiring boom of a cannon from only a few meters away. I didn't think anything could come close to that experience, yet this seems closer than I expected anything ever could. Well played. It was a joy to watch.
