Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord is a strategy action role playing game from Full on wars with thousands of combatants seem out of reach but becoming a mercenary allows all of this to take place and Whether you start with a horse or not you can easily defeat those troops. First, wait for them to come to you. Often they will spread out which means you can take them one at a time. Next, let your two soldiers attack first and you come in and move around behind the enemy and stab them in the back. Once you are mercenary you are effectively part of the kingdom you work for. Any fight you are part of (even against bandits) gives you influence. You also gain influence by stocking garrisons and jailing (donate) prisoners. This can be done by at any employer fort or city. Influence gain from prisoners/garrison is actually way higher than from +999999 Im currently playing as Mercenary to fight the snowballing that essentially voids the savegame and get penalized for doing this. The problem is that you do battle for a faction and do not receive any relationship bonuses for any of the lords but leaving drops ALL lords relationship by 20 which makes no sense. A faction needs to be at war before it starts looking for mercenary help. Hiring mercenaries in peacetime is a waste of money. Once you are a merc with a faction, though, I'm almost certain you can renew your contract as long as you please regardless of war. no one cares dude, stop derailing my thread To be fair, discussing the historical aspect of mercs and land ownership isn't really derailing, as it is relevant to a game that, at least to some extent, seems to attempt for some level of historical accuracy. Becoming A Mercenary . Once you reach clan tier one, you can become a mercenary for one of the main factions of the game. In Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord, you and your family members can marry In the unmodded game, you can still rejoin a different faction or support a claimant in order to end your current faction. However, there isn't a way to return to being unaffiliated. You probably just need to make peace and raise your standing with one faction until they offer you the chance to become a mercenary again.
