Adventurer by Carter Drake
With this mod, you can focus on the solo part of the gameplay, via the random encounters while waiting in towns, sparring with heroes, escorting any caravan outside of the quests, additional dialogue options, and more.





DeReMilitari by Luke Danger
This troop overhaul mod expands troop trees by making a distinction between three main types of soldiers - irregular, regular, and noble, each in their own separate tree. This offers alternative ways of adjusting army compositions and aims to rebalance starting factions in a way that pronounces both their weaknesses and strengths.





Europe1100 by Rodimus
This mod is a historical conversion based on Europe at the turn of the 12th century. The mod leverages Lemmy's Europe Map, adds a host of historical factions, cultures, clans, individuals, troops, and settlements - all appropriate to the time period.

Take Both by Anti Hero
If you have a hard time picking one of the two presented perk choices, this mod is for you. The choice is removed, as you get both the perks no matter which one you pick. This feature can be made available to both the player and NPCs through the menu options, and the mod is save-game compatible.





War Cry by TR-YalnızKurt
Want to feel like a brave general shouting a battle cry to your troops? You can do so with this mod, and it also provides health regeneration to injured allies, boosts friendly troop morale, and diminishes enemy morale. Additionally, the player can gain a health boost, Influence, Roguery and Leadership skills based on affected enemy and ally units, respectively.





Bodyguards by carbon
With this mod you can have a separate group of guards defending you in combat. The guard troops operate independently and won't respond to regular commands. The number of guards scales up based on party size, they can be customized in number and composition, and assigned to controllable formations. Appointing companions to your guard is also possible!

[h3]Bannerlord Native League #4[/h3]

The Bannerlord Native League team is organizing the fourth iteration!

For those unfamiliar with BNL, it is a community skirmish tournament where teams are split into divisions - with six teams in each division. One match is played per week against the other five teams. This leads to some epic competitive fights with teams on similar footing, with more skilled players in higher divisions!

In the previous installment, BNL#3, our own TaleWorlds team participated, and while we can`t say we had many great victories, we sure did have a lot of fun!

This iteration of the tournament also comes with a heavy prize with more than 200.000 Loot up for grabs.

Thinking of signing up? You have until tomorrow, 20th of January to sign-up as a team or you can alternatively sign up as a free agent here.
