@@NotSimo Is it the only mod you have on? I kinda want to play as a Freelancer too but the game seems to dislike me having some other mods (it spawns all militia archers as nigh-invulnerable kids, for some reason).
In warband there is a mod of game of thrones, its fucking incredible and you can serve in an army. You have a lot of events being part of the group and you start to rank in the army. You can leave your lord in the night or flee in a loss battle and maintain your gear but you will see as a traitor, very inmersive.
@@cernunnos8344 you will need a nice pc because the mod is heavy, un my old pc i cant played xd i hope you enjoy the mod, its nice and the creators still update the mod
there's a lot of overhaul mod like that on warband that have the same feature, like The Last Days of the Third Age mod (The Lord of the Rings mod) where you can join Mordor, Rohan, Gondor, Isengard, etc. There's a 108 Heroes mod if you fancy warring state period in china. My favorite is Gekokujo - Daimyo Edition mod, set on Japan feudal era where you can become merchant, buying house, owning property & land then set a rent for it to give you nice extra income per month, can even have a business in town, or just go serve any daimyo (lord) & start from foot soldier work your rank up to samurai.
Starting as a regular soldier is always my first step when I start a Bannerlord campaign, I really prefer it to just create an army from nothing. Instead I slowly build my reputation as soldier, raise the ranks and be seen as a leader. When I reach the highest rank or become the general's bodyguard is when I consider parting ways and creating my own warband.
There is an updated version of the "Freelancer" mod that is called "Serve as soldier". It's actually a separate mod with different code and some differences in mechanics. It was created because the author of the freelancer mod announced that he will no longer be modding for Bannerlord. You might want to check that out if you ever want to play it in an updated version.
I was up til 3am watching your videos and found myself hopping on to watch some more, so you got my sun on this one bud, good content, love that you’re leaning into the story of the character and really getting into it. Keep up the hard work bud, it’s awesome
Pretty good introduction for a nice story, only thing that's lacking is what happened with his love that you showed, surely that's an important part of the story. You can for example say 0:25 his love was killed by the Khuzait so he swore revenge against them.
Dude, this was a good story as well as very hilarious. I like how you blend modern gamer talk with solid military jargon and enemy insults are just too funny. Best part was that castle siege where we saw the guy join the Khuzait space program. LMAO! XD I will watch this series. TY for making these funny videos but also putting a nice story element in there. I am genuinely invested in Darius' progression now. :) GG
Honestly I hope the freelancer mod gets integrated to vanilla, it adds tons of potential story opportunities and also you can stuff like if you join one of the unique clans and stay with them for a good while you get access to their troop tree for your own party.
It makes far more sense to gain renown as a soldier, ranking up and being granted lands, than the typical "nobody" that the soldiers of a Kingdom will follow in full uniform with no mind paid by the Nobles and Kings lol
@@Jixxor You can get captured and executed if you have enemies I think but I'm not aware of actually dying on the battlefield. Maybe there's a mod for that?
I definitely think the Permadeath odds should depend on whether your side Wins the battle, since they’ll be able to heal you if they do, and You’ll likely be fending for yourself if they don’t.
I always loved this mod in Warband, this was my main thing, join a kings army (or any noble) and march. I love making my way through ranks, getting better gear etc. This mod should be implemented to the full game of Bannerlord.
Can you imagine being Lucon where one day you see this weird citizen running at you while being charged at by roughly 10 hill bandits for him to then ask you for a job basically. THEN a few days later you forget about this guy and you're in the middle of the seasons first large battle when suddenly this little peasant dude with his pitchfork does a wild ass jump lunge attack taking a cavalier soldier out with one smack to the back of the head. M&B is just pure chaos and I love it, great first episode of the series can't wait for more!
This looks like a good series. You could do the Fable thing and give him a new scar (if able) every time he goes down until you figure out the perma death thing. Great work 😎❄️
Hi Simo, I'm glad you're finally back! I'm posting this comment like 3 minutes into the video and I wanted to say that I can think of two ways to implement permadeath (to be counted only from the 2nd episode and onwards): first method would be through "lives", in which you get a limited amount of safe knockouts before your next one gets you killed, so let's say you have 5 lives, that means you get knocked out 5 times and the 6th is permadeath; the other method would be through coin tosses, maybe not a literal coin but you alt-tab and show us you using a cointoss website for every knockout. Second one is a bit more tedious but gets things more tense right from episode 2, while the first method keeps you on your toes only later on as the episodes roll by. Best wishes btw
This series introduced me to your channel and wow can I say your dedication to telling the story of Darius is why I’m gonna be coming back! Love the channel and content, keep it up!
Not sure if anyone already pointed this out but the party on 9:40 is actually lord's army (clan osticos, probably arcor) who died on the battlefield and now they are going to reinforce some garrison
6:52 in terms of threat level, you're a Russian soldier at Stalingrad trying to find both bullets and a gun. 11:03 a scorpio was an early artillery piece, but it was a bit smaller than a full size ballista. Difficult to tell which it is from this far out. 15:25 yep, scorpio.
For Perma death. Everytime you get knocked out by a bladed weapon you should roll a die and depending on location you should have a specific number for if your character lives or dies. Example hit to head (knocks you out) with sword 2 or less your character does. Etc
whenever you "die" roll the dice, first it will be a 10% death chance the next 20% after that 30% and so-on-and-so-forth. adequate risk every time and a finite amount of luck.
That is a very interesting series idea. I haven't played the game in a year or so, but for permadeath I'd probably say that a strike system would work, where you have 3 lives and any time you get captured you lose one, 3rd capture is "death". Something along those lines. Could be a really interesting series which would naturally generate seasons. Hardest everything, be a soldier, follow rp rules and see how far you get. No "I'm the main character" stuff.
Good stuff man and when the content makes the creator have fun it grows on the viewers. Glad I found this channel. Cheers mate and may your 2022 be the best year yet
It's surprising that it isn't given the popularity of the mod with the first game and I mean what better way to feel like a part of this huge living world than being a simple cog in one of its war machines
Was excited for this series when I seen you talk about it few days ago. Even better than I was hoping for. Can’t wait to see Darius’ chiseled jawline when he grown

During the first battle, the emperor saw Darius 1v5ing veteran horsemen with a pitchfork and was like "shit that dude is crazy"
The Emperor was like:
"Damn... he has that dawg in him! And its on demon time! Hire him!"
"Giving him a narly scar" proceeeds to show a picture of the dude's head being chopped off. 0:21
this seems so much more fun and immersive than playing as an actual lord lol

Simo: "We are gonna be with the boys, in the ranks, down there fighting shoulder to shoulder"
Gameplay: Never in a formation

We'll see if Darius opens up about that in the upcoming episodes
I think it would be more interesting if he joined the empire specifically in the goal of eliminating the Kuzhaits to keep his waifu safe
Let her live. Could be way more interesting.
maybe they could have been separated bc of the Khuzaits and now both entered the mercenarie life and are trying to find each other again

Don’t know how to implement permadeath? Implement it yourself. In the immortal words of Ivan Drago, “if he dies, he dies.”
Honestly I hope the freelancer mod gets integrated to vanilla, it adds tons of potential story opportunities and also you can stuff like if you join one of the unique clans and stay with them for a good while you get access to their troop tree for your own party.
Freelancer mod has been dead for a while it’s a new one called serve as a soldier now but it’s taken some of the mechanics out
WELCOME TO ESTALIA GENTLEMEN
Word.
It makes far more sense to gain renown as a soldier, ranking up and being granted lands, than the typical "nobody" that the soldiers of a Kingdom will follow in full uniform with no mind paid by the Nobles and Kings lol
Perma-death yes but not against Javillins and arrows.
I was thinking we implement some sort of dice roll that would be based on my character's health, but we'll see once more people throw in suggestions
Gudd idea
@@NotSimo Didn't Bannerlord have a Permadeath option? Or is it only active when you have offspring that could take over?
@@Jixxor You can get captured and executed if you have enemies I think but I'm not aware of actually dying on the battlefield. Maybe there's a mod for that?
@@Jixxor It's a chance to die, that gets higher as you age. You can fall in combat, but I've only had it happen once like 15 years into a campaign.
I definitely think the Permadeath odds should depend on whether your side Wins the battle, since they’ll be able to heal you if they do, and You’ll likely be fending for yourself if they don’t.
Fair enough.

15:25 yep, scorpio.
If it's pintle mounted and being used against infantry it's probably closer to a scorpion.
The Pantheon theme at the beginning is fire!
Ayyy awesome video! Hope you're doing well man, can't wait for more.
Thank you bro!
"Paint the town red with horsefucker blood!"
This is my new motto.
Nice format, definitely want to see what's next.
The Pantheon theme is just incredible. Love it whenever I hear it.
Oh great, another series that will go on for 3 uploads then disappear into obscurity.
Yo the commentary is fire haha. Love the energy cant wait to see more
YES YES YES! Thank you for gracing my feed with your content!
Started cackling when my man pulled out the pitchfork for the first battle lmao. Also the wither 3 music works really well with the episode!
"paint the town red with horse-fker blood" - Love the commentary bro XD
"and you can gamble which we will do right now, we lost, guys dont gamble. guys dont gamble." 6:00 shit had me dying
For Perma death. Everytime you get knocked out by a bladed weapon you should roll a die and depending on location you should have a specific number for if your character lives or dies. Example hit to head (knocks you out) with sword 2 or less your character does. Etc
Hella cool series, haven’t been able to find any other Bannerlord series out there that I like, can’t wait for the next episode
This was so cool, glad i see the last published and came back here👌🏽💛💛
One of the coolest video ideas/editing I've seen In awhile! Great job!
Love how simo actually role plays as an infantry soldier instead of just farming archery because its broken
Nice vid simo!!
love the commentary AAAND the witcher 3 music back there
Great vid
whenever you "die" roll the dice, first it will be a 10% death chance the next 20% after that 30% and so-on-and-so-forth. adequate risk every time and a finite amount of luck.
That was a lot of fun. Watching you play and talk while you play, it's just the way I play. Thanks for the vid!
really entertaining first episode!
Theme of pantheon xD
A man of culture akhuya ♥️
Love the choice of Pantheon's theme for his backstory
a start of an amazing series, absolutely looking forward to another episode!!!
Great to see you back man. Love your content
So hyped for this idea. Maybe a three strikes rule on the death? Add more scars then on the third time you are killed you are dead.
Great to see. This is real fun
You got a sub. Fantastic commentary
My first playthrough was as a khuzait. I've showered 43 times since then and I still reek of it.
I won't lie, I haven't watched regularly since the boys in Kenshi, but I'll never not love your content Simo
Hyped for Darius' story!
You see this is the bannerlord content I like to see
This is the first of your videos I’ve seen, but I’m looking forward to the next one.

Hardest everything, be a soldier, follow rp rules and see how far you get.
No "I'm the main character" stuff.
Or even go full RP and "roll a dice", use a random generator or whatever, to decide if wounded or dead on any down.
Now that would be interesting.
Good stuff man and when the content makes the creator have fun it grows on the viewers. Glad I found this channel. Cheers mate and may your 2022 be the best year yet
good to have you back :D
Finally, good Job bro
Go Simo!
9:34 Chad Lord Ostico. Leading an army of eighty on foot, and somehow still going.
Good stuff, keep it up man
this is the most awesome series
I would watch like 24 episodes of these
Im sorry I dont have any idea for new vid, I'll just take anything you upload
Let's go Simo daddy
Also love the guts look
I love the idea and super keen to see where you take this
"Yoooo, Khuzait Space Program!!!" LMAO You are funny dude
What a fun series, holy shit
Can't wait for more
The return of Simo lesss gooooo!!!
Im so excited for this i was cracking tf up trying to eat
Amazing stuff keep it up!
This should be in the base game and not just a mod. Bannerlord is a perfect fit for this kind of gameplay.
It's surprising that it isn't given the popularity of the mod with the first game and I mean what better way to feel like a part of this huge living world than being a simple cog in one of its war machines
this is way more funnier than build up a army! GJ!
Loved this! I need to try this mod myself now
Seeing you play Shadow of War made me so excited. I'm pretty sure a let's play of that would be amazing
that "lord without a horse" around 9:40 was actually the lords party returning to a town/castle because the lord died.
This was a great watch; thank you!
Loving the Pantheon Theme at the start
"You can gamble which we're going to do, we lost guys don't gamble" that made me giggle
Gotta love the pantheon theme playing in the background

Why am I now discovering you. Funny as hell and very creative! Awesome content!
Best intro, i love how you mixed youre story qnd kingdom come delivrenc story thogeter... you earn a sub and like
Watching you fight as an imperial recruit in that first fight actually had me excited. I pogged out of my gourd when you got your first kill.
