At first you need to install qt5-qtbase-gui and qt5-qtbase do that with: sudo dnf install qt5-qtbase-gui sudo dnf install qt5-qtbase Also make sure you have libcurl installed, if not install that, too. The solution for: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl-gnutls.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I found here. So just do: sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib64/libcurl-gnutls.so.4

Kingdomless lords running around is no longer an issue as of the latest patch. The lords of landless kingdoms will now defect at a much greater rate.

After playing a bit longer, I finally received fiefdom of a city and was able to leave him in the dungeon there. Now I'm just wondering if he is removed permanently from the game, since shortly thereafter, the castle was raided by another faction

If you're looking to conquer it for yourself, and not for another faction you can use the cheat menu to do this pretty easily. The only caveat being you'll have to besiege the city yourself as there isn't a cheat I've heard of to outright switch ownership. First step is to enable cheats by using this these keys: ctrl + ~ and then type nocheatmenu to block the ensuing menu. Next, initiate a siege on Shariz. After laying siege and attacking the castle use the press the keys ctrl+alt+F4 to instantly knock unconscious all enemy troops, allowing you to easily capture the castle for yourself. Now that you own Shariz you'll likely have made most of the Khergit Khanate upset. Thankfully, cheats help here too. If you use ctrl+left click you can teleport around the map. Use this to find Khergit nobles and strike up a conversation with them. So long as cheats are enabled you should see a conversation option that says "CHEATS!". This option allows you to set their relationship value to whatever you want it, allowing you to placate them for the loss of the castle. Now you own the castle, took no losses during the battle for it, and nobody's upset about it.

There's a thread here on TW forum that seems to have an updated chart: Post is from Nov-14-2019 which is after 2.054 (Oct-09-2019) so should apply to current version. Yellow characters are pagans Blue characters are christians green arrows means "A" likes "B" red arrows means "A" dislikes "B" note that not all arrows are bi-directionnal. (All credit goes to the poster in the TW forum)

He will chuck the axe and end up punching people. No, there is no way to make a companion use all but one of their throwing weapons. Don't be so cheap, and buy them a one hander, they will automatically switch to it after running out of throwing weapons

Are villages an acceptable substitute to towns? No. No number of villages substitute for a town. If you rebel against Harlaus, you're looking at constant attacks and raids from your former mates until one faction is basically destroyed. Owning a town gives you: Strong position for siege defense Place to garrison troops Marketplace to buy and sell Tavern to recruit mercenaries and sell prisoners More income from taxes Enterprise opportunities It's safe to say most of your villages will constantly be looted or in the process of being looted until you really do damage to Swadia. Towns and castles can dissuade attacks with a big enough garrison and you can get an easy win if you personally defend them. The only catch is that castle and town income depends on surrounding villages and trade caravans, which probably will all end up getting looted by Harlaus and his boys. So don't expect to maintain the same town and castle income. As the other poster mentioned, villages follow the allegiance of the associated castle or town. So in your example, you would lose Jelbegi as well as any other villages that aren't owned by your two castles.

It seems that most polearms in the game do not support a swing attack while mounted. The only such pole arms that allow for 2 handed swings are the hafted blades and their variants. These are the same weapons that the Khergit lancers sometimes use, which is how I noticed their uniqueness.

You can change the direction from the oncoming attack, invert the axis Y of the mouse. Swipe right for right attack and vice versa. Can be done at the options menu.

The main problem is commanding your soldiers to "Hold This Position" makes them spread out in a line more suitable for open confrontations. Due to the defensive nature of sieges your army may become confused and descend the ladder into enemy hordes. You'll need them to congregate somewhere, but when defending a city that's easier said than done. I've found that actually not commanding them to do anything means that most soldiers will hold their positions near the ladder and fewer will charge down it. It's inevitable, but having four or five men descend the ladder is preferable to having ten or more descend, despite being commanded to hold the line. Alternatively, ordering all soldiers to stand their ground, or "Follow Me" means that they'll mostly maintain their original positions near the top of the ladder. be wary when commanding "stand your ground" as new ally reinforcements may stay at their spawn points inside the city rather than fight atop the city walls. What I've found to be most effective is having commanding them to "Hold This Position" about five paces to the side of the ladder and positioning myself on the opposite side of the ladder. Most enemies will charge the mass of allies and leave their undefended backs to your character, who is undoubtedly much more powerful and in an optimal position to attack. If all else fails, it's possible to ignore the city and flee into the wilderness. About a day after the city is conquered most of the attacking force will have dispersed and will have left a skeleton crew - usually about a third of the attacking force - to defend their new city. At this point you can go on the offensive. You may find it easier to attack a 300 man garrison than defend against a 1,000 man siege. Additionally, waiting a day or two gives you extra time to call up vassals to help attack or gather other important supplies.

Without more information it's hard to say what the issue is but there are three likely culprits: The town is already under siege from allies or and independent faction. These allies arrived and initiated a siege before you did. The game won't allow you to start a siege because one is already underway! If you notice armies congregated outside of the city try waiting a day and see if they mount an attack on their own. If they lead an assault, you'll be able to join the attack as soon as it starts. You've made peace with the enemy faction It's possible you agreed to a truce while you weren't paying attention. If you haven't played for a few days it's possible you made an agreement with the opposing king and forgot about it. For whatever reason, the hostilities are now over and you aren't able to besiege the city. Try declaring war again and see if that allows you to continue your conquests. The city was conquered by a neutral third party I've found that under certain conditions the color schemes of the Kingdom of Swadia and Kherigate Khanate can look similar. Despite one faction using orange text and the other using purple, when fully zoomed out of the world map the text appears almost an identical white. If your computer monitor or television screen isn't properly calibrated then you may be unintentionally trying to attack a faction you aren't at war with. If you don't have a negative reputation with a faction you shouldn't be take a hostile action against them. In other words, you wouldn't see the option to initiate a siege.

Mount and Blade Warband Napoleonic Wars is a multiplayer only module for Mount and Blade Warband, so you can easily skip that if you don't care about multiplayer. Viking Conquest does have single player and is quite a good module for the game. There are no discernible differences between the PC version and PS4 version minus the major PC modding scene. The Mount and Blade modding community is quite large and has made tons of different types of modules for your game such as Floris which completely overhauls and adds tons of new mechanics to the vanilla game if you prefer the normal game play. So if you prefer to play single player only Mount and Blade Warband the PC version would most likely be your best bet.

Because you seem to be having a unique experience with this, I think the following things are worth looking at, just as a bit of a check list. Is anyone else having the same problem? If you use other Headphones/speakers does the problem persist. Does dropping the total volume help? (In game and in Windows Sound Manager) The above three will help you identify where in the chain the static is coming from. Question 1: Yes? Problem with the game No? Problem with your hardware/software Question 2: Yes? Headphones/speakers are damaged. No? not your headphones/speakers. Question 3: Yes? The Sound card has a maximum amplitude that it can output, you are surpassing that, and as such your sound card (or other sound output device) is not powerful enough to drive your speakers/headphones at the volume you are trying to achieve. (Fix and then test Question 2 again, your light headphones, will behave differently from your heavy speakers) No? Something between the software and your hardware is not playing fair. If the problem is unique to this game, blame the game! If it's happening for more that just this game (try running some others at full volume (max it out)) then blame the drivers/hardware If you're using a built in sound device (can still do if you don't mind replacing your existing PCI card): Find a local tech person and ask them if they have a spare sound card (These are practically junk PIC cards that most people never need/use so they just pile up.) Give him a $20 and ask him to throw it in your PC. (PS: Woot upgrade ) See if that fixes the issue, if it does, blame the original card for having limited scope, bandwidth, power, or just wearing out. If this does not fix the issue, (New Hardware, New Drivers, Different Headphones) Then the only options left are 'Your game' and 'Your Operating System' If it's windows, blame windows. Else blame the game. Side notes: "win+r" -> "dxdiag" has a sound section that can give you some details about your sound device.

Troops that are not killed or knocked unconscious enter the next battle at a maximum health. Only yourself, heroes and NPC commanders have health outside of each battle. However if a troop is knocked unconscious, they will take some time before they are battle ready again (thus you may see your party as being 23/25 due to troops who are unable to fight)

You can order troops to go to where you are with the "Hold This Position" order (F1 -> F1). You also can order troops to a specific location on the map by bring up the View Orders overlay (Backspace) and clicking on the map. If you don't want to order all your troops that location you can press a number key to select a group before giving one of these orders. Your troops are automatically put into either the Infantry, Archers or Cavalry group, but you can reassign them and create additional groups. There's only one formation, a straight line, but you can do things like order your infantry to line up in front of your archers if you want. More complicated formations than that wouldn't be of much use in Mount & Blade. As soon as you troops engage the enemy it becomes a chaotic melee.

If your faction loses all feifs and castles, your faction will be defeated. This means that you will have to join another faction which can be hard if you were at war with all factions, or create your own faction and hope for the best.

Yes your own lords will escape on their own. If I remember correctly their likelihood of escape is dependant on the number of troops in the garrison and whether the castle/town has a prisoner tower constructed. It can take a while for a lord to escape so you might want to rescue them yourself. You also get a significant relationship bonus with them and also with their family members. You can often get a quest to rescue them if you talk to their mother/sisters/daughter. This can be useful to raise your relation when courting a potential suitor. The rescue shouldn't be that hard. The defenders are spread out so you usually only have to fight a few at a time.

Yes, if you press the backspace key during battle it will pop up with what is variously called the command interface, tactical menu or backspace battle map. What this looks like and what information it displays varies between mods but in my experience it always shows: 1) A minimap showing the locations of your troops, ally troops and enemy troops in different colours. 2) A table telling you how many of your own and your enemy's troops have been killed, knocked unconscious, routed and remain in the battle. The tactical map is incredibly useful because you can click with your mouse to direct your selected troops to any location on the map. This means you can order your troops, particularly cavalry or skirmishers which you want to harass the enemy rather than engaging in prolonged melee combat, to move around without having to be there yourself. This is vital for infantry characters. Here is a picture of the tactical map I pinched from Nexus Mods: The tactical map only shows those enemies which have already spawned. If you're asking if there is a way to determine how many enemies are left to fight in the total battle then no there isn't. Check how many enemies have been killed/routed/knocked unconscious in the battle map and subtract it from either the total number of enemies in the battle (visible on the screen just before you choose to start the battle) or how many waves of how many enemies you have in your settings. Whichever of these is the smaller number will be the total number of enemies which will spawn in a battle.

Normally mods are playable, even if the installer is for Windows. If that's the case you can use wine to install it. For that you'll need to install wine and use the exe with it, or you install the mod under Windows. sudo apt-get install wine wine [drag and drop the installer exe here] It's probably just a simple unzipper, so you should be able to target an empty directory inside your home directory, then copy those files correctly to your steam installation. Also make sure you only paste the location of the installer. A little tip for the installer, if it asks you to choose the correct directory. Go to the steam directory, in /home/[yourname]/Steam/SteamApps/[nameofthegame] And in this case make sure you're inside the Modules directory and then create a new directory so that your path looks like. Z:\home[name]\Steam\SteamApps\common[gamename]\Modules\1257AD Good luck.

Here's a list of some changes that I've noticed A new faction was added, the Sarranid Sultunate. The map and faction positions have changed. There are new political options, for example If you create your own faction, you have the option of recruiting enemy lords Marriage, which works differently if you are a male or female. Combat has changed slightly. However, it is difficult to notice unless compared side-to-side. This affects things such as swinging animations and projectile accuracy. Individual arrows, bolts, and throwing weapons can now be picked up off the environment if they miss the enemy. It is more difficult to hit enemies from horseback. In my opinion, the combat is worse. Swinging your weapon is no longer as quick or as intuitive as the original. They probably made these changes to balance the multiplayer mode. The graphics are now better, though still nowhere near that of games with large development costs. There is support for custom single player battles, where you can choose the two factions and Cavalry/Infantry/Archer ratios as well as the map and game type (battle and siege). As a side note, the multiplayer mode is quite fun and I suggest you try it at least once.
