    The fact that the Rhodoks don't have any cavalry makes sense. they live in a very mountainous region with little flatland. This land is also quite defensible in the first place. So not only do they not really need cavalry, as they would almost always be on the defensive, they really couldn't even use it

    @Quicksilver_Cookie 4 года назад +67

    I love playing Rhodoks. I often make up my entire army of just their troops, and lack of cavalry never became a problem due to how dumb the enemy AI is. What I usually do is have more than half of my army as sharpshooters, with rest filled with heroes and sergeants. You plant them on a hill right on a spawn. All the cavalry I ever need is me :) You need a tanky horse, one of those heavy chargers with 50+ armor. A nice big shield with 3-4 points in shield skill, and another one on your back(optional, but good against armies with lots of archers). You charge ahead towards enemy and start harassing them. 9 times out of 10 instead of marching towards your army they idiotically start trying to chase you. Which isn't an easy feat, considering by the end game you are like an armored train. Keep looping around an open area in front of your sharpshooters, giving them nice target practice. Don't forget to kill an enemy or two here and there, skimming around edges of enemy pack so they keep following you. Due to this even hordes of Swadian knights were never an issue, since most of them don't even make it to my front line. Once enemies are close, there's usually not much left of them. Let your sergeants charge in, and mop up the sorry leftovers of what used to be an army.

I ended up with 13 cities, a few castles and around 20 villages. The final war was against Vaegirs. It was only me and Graveth with army of 1500+ soldiers taking their remaining castles one by one. Rest of lords left Calradia before.

      It's pretty easy to be friends with a king, though it takes some time, of course. A king's attitude towards you rises if you:
      - do some quests for him (before joining a kingdom, after that he don't really hire any of his vassals)
      - defeat an enemy lord and talk to your king afterwards (1-2 points)
      - help him in a battle against overwhelming forces of the enemy and win (a few points)
      - become a marshal of your kingdom (5 points)
      - fight in a big battle along with him or conquer a town/castle and then talk to him (a few points)
      Those are the ways that I know about.

      just order your infantry to stand closer and they'll start forming 2, 3, 4 rows, depending on how many times you tell them to do so. Btw yes, spears in Native are pointless, they do no damage and, due to the combat system, their high reach is actually a liability because once the enemies are at sword-range you can't stab efficiently

One was Guardians which would follow and protect me as we go into battle and Peasants… I don’t normally like have tier 1 troops with me so I call them all peasants. Lol my other character names are Lord ThunderCock as a proud Swadian man. HighKhan Bojack is my Khergit person. Ali Salad is my Sarranid person. I don’t have a Nord or Vaegris character sadly.

    They are very good at taking castles. I think they are better than the swadian knights for this.

      I have Floris Evolved and set the units to native and battle size set to 330. One time I had to defend Derechios castle with 120+ Mixed units but mostly (Rhodok Sergaents and Sharpshooter) vs 900+ Mixed Swadian enemies. Keep in mind I changed to 3/4 damage to friends so I had a small advantage in that battle. Instead of defending the ladder I instead moved my crossbowmen in the "wood area" and moved all my melee units to defend a choke point supported by Sharpshooters. I won with only 50+ casualties and 900+ casualties on the other side. Rhodoks are fucking op in seiges.

  • @hideshisface1886
    @hideshisface1886 4 года назад +2

    Couple of things.
    Rhodok Sergeants have one more advantage - their close melee weapons do not have any thrusting attacks, so they never get stuck at extremely close range doing the awkward stabbing attack - like weapons of Swadian Sergeants (except morning star).
    That being said - in open field, I think Swadian Sergeants are actually stronger - due to combination of slightly better armour reach on their weapons combined with higher skill. In defensive combat, however, they are unmatched.
    As for Rhodok Sharpshooters - their melee abilities are easy to overlook, but this makes them by far the most versatile top tier unit in the game. They are good in ranged combat, good in melee.
    Other top tier ranged units are extremely vulnerable against melee enemies, but not Rhodok Sharpshooters. They won't be simply massacred by low tier infantry.
    Probably the second best option are Sarranid Master Archers - also reasonably skilled in melee and well armoured but they lack shields, which is a huge hit to their survivability in melee range.

    I don't remember which mod it was but it was an awesome mod for enhancing native. There were more factions and apart from the kingdom of rodhoks there were four or five factions of rodhok noble houses and you could have an alternative start as the ear to the etrosq house. That was the first time I played with rodhoks and man, it was soooo epic. Because the noble houses were small you have less nobles to worry about and get to know them better and gain relationship with some of them. At first the roller is your father or some covering and you have to get prepared for the moment he dies (characters can die, and this man dies in one moment of the game) you earn respect and right to rule and fight the other noble houses and slowly make yours stronger. When you become the ruler you are still the leader of a noble house but you are not to op. So you make and break alliances and fight other houses. Rodhoks vs other rodhoks but each house with it's own units strengths and weaknesses. But the kingdom of rhodoks is sometimes more powerfully than the noble independent houses. So you unite All the houses and have the best unit of each house with their own banners and symbols and attack the rodhoks all together... Dan, best rodhok experience ever

      Yup. With an overhead swing, you only need like 10 sergeants and 30 sharpshooters. Let sergeant tank the hits and overhead swing through a small crack. I defeated an army of 400+ (Sultan Hakim and 2-3 of his vassals). I killed most of the people and I was shocked at how easy castle defense is if you use a war cleaver and overhead swing.

A benefit will be less money required to amass this army. As well I'm gonna max out on amount of troops I can have in my army early on (I believe it's Charisma Perk +Leadership Skill maxing).

    Fucking love Rhodoks. Sharpshooters are the backbone of my army with sergeants and spearman to hold the enemy back long enough for the Crossbowmen to slaughter, i have defeated armies roughly 5x larger than mine and still had over half my army fight capable. My sharpshooters have survived for many months though my infantry has turned over a few times in the same time period mostly due to seiges where i need to send my infantry on the offensive with little to no support from the crossbowmen though they do still SLAUGHTER the enemy.
    Somehow through shenanigans i was allied with the Rhodoks and the Rhodoks were at war with the veigers and by the time i had taken 2-4 of their castles i had captured like 7 of their lords and most of their armies were around 50ish men and they all flee from me. With minimal support from the other Rhodok lords (and some help from the khergit) they are down too 2 cities and a handfull of castles and towns and are soon to be demolished.
    As for cavilary ive been trying to get some swadian knights but i havnt really been focusing on that too much, mostly its me with a great long battle axe riding around cutting down their backline whilst kiting their troops so the crossbowmen can gun them down. For this you need to find and kill the enemy leader otherwise they will stay in formation.

    An overall issue with the game is the AI's use of any troops no matter the faction. No where is this more prevalent than in the Sarranids. The Zerg rush tactics the AI use completely negate all the advantages a missile focused mobile army offers.
    Now don't get me wrong I love the hell out of Warband (I've put damn near 700 hours into the game since 2013). But I hope the developers take some notes from moders when finishing bannerlord.
    Lastly, great vid and analysis! Those Rhodoks bois are fighting in a feudal Calradia with Renaissance battle tactics (minus cav).

    I was very confused when my bois didnt come to help defend against the siege.. no wonder they got scared.. though what i missed was a single 0.
