First time I've seen your channel, fun story you told out of a bannerlord campaign. Been playing too for a while but this honestly seems more fun than what I'm doing, kinda like light role playing.
I appreciate the openness of the game. A first few playthroughs you take every advantage you can find till you get good enough to increase the difficulty, then you make additional self imposed restrictions. Would be cool if there were achievements like this though. 🤔
13:10 why do i find it wholesome that amongst all the chaos and bandits sieging the castle theres a single looter just throwing rocks at the enemy garrison
A bandit only play through looks fun after you did it! All those bandit perks had me wondering why on earth I’d do such a thing, but I’m surprised how strong they actually are!
I love using the bandit units. I wish they'd expand the troop trees for them a little; tier 5 options for all types, as well as an overhauled/merged looter and thug line.
@@PodVista365 they get more common as time progresses. You can easily hire loads if you outpower them by a lot, they will offer to join you. There's a perk in roguery that makes it easier to hire them.
Black Heart is an early game breaking weapon when you focus on Two-handed weapons, it's already about the most peak balance of Two-handed Axes without crafting them yourself or waiting for the blacksmiths to get better
I like slower longer axes personally only because charging with them you have way more potential to kill multiple opponents at once even though they are not the most efficient
Great one. Repeated you companion only challenge - best playthrough ever. And one more thing - never approach enemy walls with shieldwall. Onagers will decimate you. Best bet is line or loose and push forward as quickly as possible to reach onager-safe zone
@@nolol5552 The slaves grow accustomed to their lords, so they just wish for a better lord, rather than freedom. ( just saying stop asking for dlcs bruh)
Do you mean that you select only looters from your army and tell them to take up the artillery? Or do you mean have a whole bunch of looters in a garrison just to act as bulllet sponges? Becaue the first one is a brilliant idea, and I want to do it. The second one is not brilliant, I am sorry to say.
there is setting to send in low tier troops first so you can send the looters to do the hard work and higher tier troops come and kill the defenders @@LeatherCladVegan
Bro capping this is not “bannerlord” mode its way difficult, plus if you see when he get hit he lose very few life, in bannerlord mode everything could be deadly
You should try the obscure units only play through. Caravan, Militia, Companion, Peasant, Minor Clan, and Quest-Unique troops (Conspiracy, Mounted Ransaker/Pillager, Poachers) only.
@@harrysalt5277 since I posted this comment I’ve done three WC attempts and I have determined that it *is* possible, but only through maxing out tactics early on to get better auto resolve RNG. Fighting field battles is pretty much impossible unless you outnumber the enemy, and even then most every fight the balance of power won’t be in your favor. I also had to save scum a lot and because of that I don’t think it would be possible on Ironman, but I do plan to attempt it in the future. In terms of the best units for this, it’s definitely going to be the mounted pillagers. The mobility they have as horse archers is pretty much your only advantage. Just keep moving around and shooting at the enemy, and then once your men run out of arrows retreat and repeat until success. Every other unit (excluding some of the minor clan troops like the wolfskins and your companions) are pretty much cannon fodder, so don’t be afraid to sacrifice them especially the mounted ransackers, because they are easy to replenish via the caravan escort/ambush quests. Aserai caravan units make for somewhat decent cavalry, but I couldn’t acquire enough of them on any of those three playthroughs to determine if they were actually able to make a difference.
So essentially the best Strat would be to max out tactics early and grind as many caravan escort/ambush quests as possible. The units themselves are very weak so if you have a good horse and a two handed mace you can take them on solo, then it’s just a matter of waiting in a town for several months in game to convert them. Bandit Hideouts are also great because they sometimes have peasants or caravan troops you can recruit after you clear it out.
I started it now it takes a bit of time but once you get to like 50-60 soldiers you can start attacking the minor clans and get some of their soldiers which are far higher level and sea raider chiefs are actual tuff , Harami and raiders are quite good too fr and of course you can buy caravan guards too which are solid I haven't attacked any major factions yet to get any veteran caravan guards or caravan masters yet but I will soon probs gonna attack one of the empires and Ive chose to not use and mercenary units because I feel like that would be too easy early game
@@harrysalt5277 yeah it’s a slogfest at first but once you get some of those higher tier minor clan troops (and the mounted pillagers ofc) you can start raiding villages and doing normal mercenary stuff
You can also use fourberie, it helps with a bandit play through, as you can strengthen bandits by giving hideouts prisoners, men, and equipment. You can also do other things with it.
Loved warband since i was a little kid and picked up bannelord a couple days ago, amazing and interesting vid you made here, seriously impressed with all the things you can do in bannerlord and your quality playthrough makes me want to try a fear mongering viking lmao, like Ivar the boneless or Ragnar Lothbrok 😅
Just started playing this game a couple of days ago. That theme song is catchy as hell. It's constantly stuck in my head now. Sounds epic with Agnarr smashing heads in with his ax.
This video simply very entertaining, with great efforts; you did well! Hope to see more like this! Hmm...come to thinking, your video really inspired me to go back to Bannerlord and build my own bandit kingdom.
Protip: Use Bandit Boss troops instead of bandit chiefs( the ones who would duel you at the end of every hideout fight), they're tier 5 troops and are very powerful. Especially the sea raider boss, I use them in replacement for Sturgian heroic line breakers
@@spyrossid3593 You get some occasionally when fighting big bandit parties. Been doing a bandit cavalry playthrough and I think I might need to try again with medicine prioritized so I can actually take higher tier units prisoner, these horses are spendy lol
This was awesome to watch. Never knew you could take over the alley ways. Triggered that option once because I had the best gear I could get my hands on for civilian clothes and they beat the tar out of me. I’ll have to try again sometime.
At the end you said it was a bandit republic… but ur DEF a God King so this ones gonna be a russian style “republic” lol i fkn loved this video to my core. Great TLDR storytelling, great edits, great MOVIE
This and the khuzait horse archer army are the most fun bannerlord play styles. Recruiting bandits and being a menace to everyone around you feels oddly satisfying
Dude this kicks ass! It's so rare that I find fresh quality content like this and not just another "hey guys we're gonna play as a hideous mutant named Barry McKokner and exploit glitches" video
"That's a nice head you have on your shoulders" It would have been nice to see the beginning and end build though. Atching again at 4:13 I got the jist of what you did, and I was shocked to see you prioritized Athletics and Roguery.
@@Mr.Chicken why didnt you use whole line of steppe bandits. Because i tought they can easily win against battainian or vladian footman and some cavalry. Because of their riding horses and footman.
Glad someone appreciate Forest bandit prowess! with same bow as Fians and almost as high archery skill why da zog not? anyway tis my favorite parts : - 17:45 Svana probably sent that guy Flying! - 18:26 Agnar : DO you scums wanna life forever!?? May i ask a question though, whats your impression when u duel a Steppe Bandit Boss for the first time? somehow i just laughed seeing Steppe Bandit Boss unique figthing style compared to other scum Bosses... even after he beat me up thanks a lot for sharing this 😄
I’m pretty sure blunt weapons result in the most prisoners. But I may be thinking on warbands. I’d give me the companion hall bludgeons and just knock everyone out
i doubt this will get a response but is anyone else not ever getting recruits from the alleys? i wait and wait leave and come back but she just says come back next week?

It has a LOT of 👦🪓
First time I've seen your channel, fun story you told out of a bannerlord campaign. Been playing too for a while but this honestly seems more fun than what I'm doing, kinda like light role playing.
MORE!
Agnarr is the chad of chads. I can just imagine Agnarr riling up his rowdy band of bandits and raiders before and after a good fight
His name was not Agnarr
@@peterpeter2386 It was actually Slater Agnarr, the game only shows the first name.
Agnar is the best written character of all time, this made my life several times happier
Hey does this game require a strong pc with a strong graphic card or not
@@chaoukibensafi8477 i literally have a 2007 Lenovo laptop, i couldnt know less about requirements for bannerlord
@@chaoukibensafi8477 I have a 1050 ti and it runs nicely so not really
@@chaoukibensafi8477nope
I was laughing my ass off at the Agnarr executing deserters part and the ending for the safe haven for all bandits except looters 😂😂
You have to be able to afford to spend your Javelins on deserters in an ongoing battle lol
My favorite part what when his son was born during a raid that’s fucked me up lol
try to play bannerlord normally (impossible)
(Dies of boredom)
I appreciate the openness of the game. A first few playthroughs you take every advantage you can find till you get good enough to increase the difficulty, then you make additional self imposed restrictions.
Would be cool if there were achievements like this though. 🤔
Freaking true dude
Start a new campaign every time I sit down cuz I don't like how the other one went
Define "normal"
@@cruzaider5339 hell yeah it gets boring
13:10 why do i find it wholesome that amongst all the chaos and bandits sieging the castle theres a single looter just throwing rocks at the enemy garrison
"I'm doing my part!"
That was a hillman not a looter btw
A bandit only play through looks fun after you did it! All those bandit perks had me wondering why on earth I’d do such a thing, but I’m surprised how strong they actually are!
Another challenging way to play after the companions only challenge, you did amazing!
I love using the bandit units. I wish they'd expand the troop trees for them a little; tier 5 options for all types, as well as an overhauled/merged looter and thug line.
Hey do you know where can i find lot of forest bandits
@@PodVista365 they get more common as time progresses. You can easily hire loads if you outpower them by a lot, they will offer to join you. There's a perk in roguery that makes it easier to hire them.
@@aj863 thx, that helps a lot
@@PodVista365 Bandit types tend to stick in/around their terrain, so Forest bandits are mostly in the most heavily forested area, Battania.
Black Heart is an early game breaking weapon when you focus on Two-handed weapons, it's already about the most peak balance of Two-handed Axes without crafting them yourself or waiting for the blacksmiths to get better
I like slower longer axes personally only because charging with them you have way more potential to kill multiple opponents at once even though they are not the most efficient
Great one. Repeated you companion only challenge - best playthrough ever.
And one more thing - never approach enemy walls with shieldwall. Onagers will decimate you. Best bet is line or loose and push forward as quickly as possible to reach onager-safe zone
Or don't engage until you've took out all their wall defenses
They need to come out with a bandit dlc. Where you can have your own hideout take over other hideouts and be able to defend them from clans
They should let us do the raiding by ourselves
Update**
@@nolol5552 The slaves grow accustomed to their lords, so they just wish for a better lord, rather than freedom.
( just saying stop asking for dlcs bruh)
warband still better
@@morganfreeman5260 I wouldn't know
You should use looters to move siege equipment to the walls so its not your good troops being killed.
Or Just use only good troops, because ur rich af. 😂
Do you mean that you select only looters from your army and tell them to take up the artillery? Or do you mean have a whole bunch of looters in a garrison just to act as bulllet sponges?

I couldnt find a single fun or interesting video this week but finally found this gem. thanks, mate! awesome content.
Glad you liked it! Will have a nice similar video up in 2-3 days
0:20 started in the tournaments. Where agnarr fought with honor **proceeds to teabag**
More of these style of videos please, very time consuming we know but bite size makes it extremely watchable, keep up the good work!

In just a short amount of time, I loved Agnarr.
Agnarr The Bandit King.
6:56 I always have goosebumps, this music and Agnarr roar "warriors! move on!". Epic
Oh damn I love your videos! So fun to watch
This channel is seriously underrated. Enjoyed this alot!
Really learned a lot from this video how to enjoy the game. Very well played, sir.
You can also use fourberie, it helps with a bandit play through, as you can strengthen bandits by giving hideouts prisoners, men, and equipment. You can also do other things with it.
Hilariously done. Bravo. I have been playing Mount and Blade for a few years and I think now is the time to get Bannerlord. Looks brilliant.
Just suscribed. You make bannerlord campaigns fun to watch lol. Also I love the humour, it is very nice :)

First youtuber who do this build whithout mod (sorry for my english)
Love the music you picked! It fits SO WELL!!!
First time seeing your content, came up in my recommended feed. Fantastic stuff dude, great content and great story telling

Where to find so many bandit hideouts to recruit even 20
Thats the same question i have can you find bandit bosses except from hideouts???

You get some occasionally when fighting big bandit parties.
Been doing a bandit cavalry playthrough and I think I might need to try again with medicine prioritized so I can actually take higher tier units prisoner, these horses are spendy lol

I'm romanian and I approve this message
Dam chill
Taking that 93 damage at like 2:54 really humbled you for a moment there lmao.
That Battanian bonked agnarr's rage out of him lol
That Arena gameplay at the beginning was cracked what tf were those movements.
"That's a nice head you have on your shoulders" It would have been nice to see the beginning and end build though.
Atching again at 4:13 I got the jist of what you did, and I was shocked to see you prioritized Athletics and Roguery.
here is better written story and character development than most of the TV shows and movies nowadays
"Agnarr broke through single handedly " during the siege broke me 😂😂
Since Bannerlord is a prequel to Warband, I'm gonna say this is officially the canon origin of the Nords
"where agnar fought with honor"

God damn! Sick moves, mate!
Love the videos! Keep it up
Battle death is actually more rare than you would think, Adds to the realism too ;)
Looks like sea raiders were always scary, even back then
Yep, too bad that at t4 their javs get replaced with trash throwing axes. But it's worth it for the amazing veteran axe.

as you should !
cuz they are great
Like bro this is the bannerlord content i want
Im preety sure forest bandits have a better bow skill than any archer in the game outside of the fians
best line, ' Looters, the inferior bandit ' , good one there.
Glad someone appreciate Forest bandit prowess! with same bow as Fians and almost as high archery skill why da zog not? anyway tis my favorite parts :
- 17:45 Svana probably sent that guy Flying!

May i ask a question though, whats your impression when u duel a Steppe Bandit Boss for the first time? somehow i just laughed seeing Steppe Bandit Boss unique figthing style compared to other scum Bosses... even after he beat me up
thanks a lot for sharing this

I really don't see any difference in combat style from any unit tbh
I feel like agnarr is just angry for the sake of being angry
This videos is amazing bro

Que vídeo incrível, imagina o trabalhão que deu pra fazer 😅
I can only aspire to be that good in close quarters combat. This was a great video as a new player.
It really hard for me my mouse is fucked op
nice. Well played and Great story. :)
Finally a worhty foe. Our battles will be legendary!
settings were defo changed mid campaign
Really great video✌️
Oooh that's alot of green text, oh yeah my brain is doing the thing
"Agnarr executes deserters" like he should!
love this style of video
When sieging you should put your troops in spread out formation because it stops mangonels or whatever doing damage
Love this idea and video
Part 2 coming out today!
Awesome video you should do it again or even a part 2
If you want To capture your enemies, use blunt weapons.
A mace or a club Will pretty much Always knock them down, not out right eliminate them.
I’m pretty sure blunt weapons result in the most prisoners. But I may be thinking on warbands. I’d give me the companion hall bludgeons and just knock everyone out
Agnarr must have forearms of titanium to swing around a bardiche like an axe and throw pikes at people
i doubt this will get a response but is anyone else not ever getting recruits from the alleys? i wait and wait leave and come back but she just says come back next week?
Try towns with less than 3000 prosperity... lower prosperity town usually provide at least twice a week bandit recruits
