#bannerlord

Girl, i am the head of a high level clan with more money to my name that most *kingdoms*. I own multiple cities and have a reputation of literally smashing my way through five consecutive castles with armies in the thousands. My core raiding party is two hundred and fifty strong, fast enough to chase down most others with ease and consists of the highest tier units from every kindom, imperial elite cataphracts behind vlandian banner knights with hundreds of khuzait khan’s guards ready to decimate any approaching enemy in conjunction with my battanian fian champions. I have the most skilled engineer in the whole of calradia riding by my side with enough knowledge to turn any wall, no matter how reinforced, to scrap.

And *STILL!* These lords decide that despite vladnia having taken over literally over 7/8s of the continent, its *definitely* in their best interests to defect to the rapidly shrinking khuzaits or aserai. That’s definitely going to go well for you, isn’t it?

I finally caved in and purchased Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord along with the recently released DLC War Sails from Steam when it was on a good sale.

The review rating of the DLC was still only "Mixed" in Steam, but that didn't stop me from getting it. Most people complain about the story related to the DLC, but I'm more into sandbox gameplay anyway.

So far I have been really happy with the game and the DLC.

Visiting the towns takes more time than it's supposed to when I have to stop to admire the sights. The beautiful Nordic landscapes and the Nordic towns are really amazing!

The surroundings during battles look absolutely fantastic especially in the night time.

And what about the sea battles?

Well, I really like them a lot: the ships, the sea, the chaos and how the ship moves.

I haven't yet dared to face any really difficult enemies like big armies or rich war leaders.

There are still dozens of different ships to own and they have their own upgrades and special features which I'm still just learning about.
