Community Tales #4



Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Welcome to the fourth edition of the Community Tales! Before we highlight the new creations and events, we would like to share more on the progress of the v1.2.x version series. Recently, we’ve released Beta v1.2.5 which addressed a plethora of issues, brought improvements to the settlement garrison balance and tweaked the combat AI by introducing a larger fighting skill gap between lower and higher skilled troops.

Furthermore, Dedicated Server files have been made available for Beta, we’ve made a number of balance adjustments based on your feedback and added the ability to favorite servers. Finally, modders can now explore the new and improved moddability of the World Map, the bulk shader compilation (which reduces module loading times) as well as the ability to define and use your own decals.

Finally, as 1.2.5 grew larger than expected, the previous November cross-platform release estimate will likely not be met. Having said that, this month still saw significant progress towards a release in the next few weeks. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and continued support as we strive to deliver a stable and well-rounded patch.

A big thank you to everyone who has provided feedback, reported a bug or uploaded a dump report.

Elite Mercenaries Expanded by TheMerc
This mod introduces new mercenary troops, with historically-inspired appearances and loudouts, with some having uniquely crafted weapons. It allows you to recruit higher tier mercenaries more easily as their troop trees consist of tier 5 and tier 6 units. All the mercenaries can be found only in the towns of their culture.





Random Events by Phill544
Spice up your gameplay with the many different random events this mod provides - anything from various illnesses and getting ambushed by bandits to recruiting eager soldiers and helping the refugees you meet along the way. Many of these events have multiple choices that ultimately shape the kind of adventurer you want to be.

Community Tales #3



Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Welcome to the third edition of the Community Tales - highlighting some fantastic creations and events that you can join!

Before we begin, though, we would like to give you another progress update on the v1.2.x version series. Recently, we have released Beta v1.2.4, which addressed a number of important issues, reintroduced the Danustica town scene and opened up the Beta Multiplayer with a host of balance changes (including the return of the dismount mechanic) for testing with the community.

We are now working on Beta v1.2.5, which will tweak the multiplayer changes according to feedback, include further stability and performance improvements, balance the AI combat level calculation to better reflect the current skill distribution as well as introduce a number of modding-related changes, such as improved world map modding and reduced mod loading times.

Barring any unforeseen issues or events, we expect to release the series to Live on all platforms in November.

Once again, a big thank you to everyone that has provided feedback, reported a bug or uploaded a dump report.

Governors Handle Issues by Carbon
Delegate the handling of all your town and village issues to the assigned Governors and still reap the rewards. But be wary - success chance depends on the governor`s skills and garrison troops that go on the mission can still be wounded or killed!

The Bannerlord Native League #3 we mentioned last time is still ongoing, with the competitive community commentators Greedalicious (Twitch, YouTube) and Bard/Troechka (Twitch, YouTube) following the tournament closely. You can watch the next intense Division A skirmish match between Deutschritter Furor and Vineyard Workers this Sunday at 18:00 UTC on Twitch.

We can’t say our own TaleWorlds team has been doing great in the tournament but we haven’t given up - here’s a VOD of our first match!

The Calradic Campaign team is also organizing the twenty-first event in their Bannerlord series - appropriately named “The Wolf Den”. Join up for some hack & slash this Saturday at 20:00 UTC on their Calradic_Campaign server using their Module.


[h3]Bretonnie Sunday Roleplay Event[/h3]
The Bretonnie Sunday Roleplay Event is a highly immersive weekly multiplayer community event organized by the Le Royaume de Bretonnie [BRE] clan as featured in the Benoni’s video above. The next event starts this Sunday at 18:30 UTC.

This recurring event focuses on strict formation and roleplaying rules in an effort to re-create massive medieval battles with more than 400 players on the server at once. The story continuously unfolds and is impacted by the results of the battle events and roleplay scenarios. This narrative is further supported by the Mod Pack which contains custom maps and items.

It is required to participate with or as part of a clan to join the event, so if you’re already in one - sign up with your clan here. Still searching for a clan? Then make your way to the Clans board and find your new home!
