- Today you learn EVERYTHING about how to assemble a proper army: The various methods of recruitment, the best troops to hire, and how to put each of them to good use throughout your campaign. And while this is mainly a guide for Raiders, these methods could be used by anyone looking to conquer the world: Petty Kings, Loyal Lords, Merchant Guildsmen, they all need manpower to reach their goals.
If you've played this game, you will know nearly everything I talk about today, but I hope you'll still find a few nuggets of information that will help you on your journey.

The 3 Big Chapters of this video are marked with CAPITAL LETTERS, and for the best viewing (and learning) experience, I recommend watching a Chapter in its entirety, and then taking a break. This is a long winded video and if you just skip to the "best part", you won't understand much of anything, because of how I structure my videos.
------------------------------------------
And with this video out of the way, we can proceed with the first episode of my Raider Campaign. If all goes well, it should be out within the next 2 weeks, although I cannot make any promises. I was also supposed to make a guide for another game, but I've postponed it until 4-5 episodes of the Playthrough are out. - เกม

Hey fellas! I hope you'll enjoy this 3rd and final Raider Guide. With this video out of the way, I can now focus my efforts on my upcoming Bandit Playthrough, which is coming... when this video reaches 5000 likes. Just kidding, no likes required, episode 1 comes out when it's ready, which shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks.
The likes would still be appreciated, though. :)
its amazing how much time you put into your videos
i fucking love your voice
You were the real "Overly edited game tutorial
Mercinarys are the worst troops in game.
They Lose against any other high tier unit in sutch shamefull msnny that i wouldnt call it a fight
Halcylion this might be an odd question, but can you make a tutorial how to switch characters in order to get a new one so u can reasearch new set of skills fast.
Its pretty hard to invest into trade skill if your whole game was sieging castles
My charecter is 52 years old and i already have 6 kids and 2 of em are 18, and i find that is pretty hard to die in this game ironacly XD
I love how much research you put into being a bandit maniac and exploiting every game mechanic.
He's like the Internet Historian of Bannerlord. Or whoever that guy who completely broke down Half-life's mechanism.
I wouldn't even call it exploiting, i would call it optimization of game mechanics
This is the only Bannerlord stuff I watch any more. It's fantastic
comment for algorithm and youtube drama and long live the freemen of calradia
I wish I found you earlier. I love your Bannerlord videos. I LOVE the bandit ballads. I wish it were more popular and lucrative for you. I really hope you do more. Best wishes.
Better late than never. I will have to try my hand at different video styles, probably even different games, and maybe that will make the channel a bit more lucrative. :)
Awsome vid, though there is one thing missing during the part about getting warhorses, if you get lucky during the early game you might be able to get a "deliver herd" mission from one of the many aserai horse villages. If you do you can just decide to keep them for yourself. I got lucky and managed to get around 10-15 aserai horses by mid 1084.
Best guides ever. Hope the channel keeps growing.
It’s great to see you uploading, your content is definitely one of the better stuff I come across youtube. Thanks for the video, my guy :).
So sad this tutorial series has come to an end, but I'm definitely looking forward to your next campaign in a couple weeks though, you do a great job man, like a diamond in the rough. Hopefully you get the views you deserve someday.
Every time you upload, I stop everything I'm doing to watch it.
Another banger video! 🥺 waited very long for it
Great video as always. So much fun to watch.
Man I cant wait for this series! Checking everyday XD
Great video, can't wait for bandit series
Honestly my favorite bannerlord vids, keep up the amazing work! Can’t wait for the bandits ballads :D
Soon™
@@Halcylion lol
another great video as always brother
Great content. Have my thumb tokens! Also I love the meme/references littered throughout.
I really enjoy the videos man thanks for sticking to bannerlord when others would quit
watching your videos + eating my favorite dinner, what a time to be alive. keep up the good work!! what about upload videos more often? hehe
I'm uploading as often as I can. :)
41:48 I love how well edited this is.
Good to see you uploading vidoes sir,
TY for this guide. I love ur content!
Among my favorite content creators :)
Excellent video.
Great video!
Love ur content bro keep up the amazing work !
Will you ever make a following part for this guide ?
Hey Hal, love your videos. About how to recruit more people in army, if you have companion and you have your own kingdom, you can make parties and then create army and call your companions to your army. When you visit hostile villages, you can't recruit, but your companions can recruit. Or just follow parties and watch while they grow and call them later back.
Howdy Halcylion, enjoying the Bannerlord content. I miss the old KC:D livestreams, any chance of something similar coming back?
Thanks Hal great info
Dude I love your videos ❤❤
Great video
Your pretty funny and witty. Subscribed and liked. 👍
Lovely op forest bandits are my favorite.
commenting for algorithm love these videos
amazing video great job i think i might start a rock bottom playthrough now :)
Been following your vids with heightened anticipation, and wanting to see more from you. There are policies in Bannerlord of which still puzzle me. Been trying out a rogue warlord to see how it plays out with your video guide on the subject. Perhaps you can elaborate on the best policies to benefit a rogue lord. Your contribution to Bannerlord is much appreciated. Sub and liked all your videos.
The best method of getting lots of steppe bandits is to have high bow and horse skills. Shoot them to shreds, most will die but the few that survive you can imprison. Rinse and repeat until you get an army of around 20, it doesn't take too long and you'll beat every village militia really easily
Or just autoresolve the fights. More people get injured in autoresolving than when you join battles yourself. That, and none of them runs away. But the best way to do it is to get some Mace/Shield infantry and raiding steppe hideouts.
@@Halcylion sadly l can never seem to catch up to them with a group of soldiers and if l ever do the odds are against me 😞
Amazing vid
Thank!
If you want to min/max this a bit more:
The best bandit units imo are:
1. Raiders (upgrade into Kheshik --> Khan's Guard, best unit in the game)
2. Highwayman (upgrade into Vlandian Champion --> Banner Knights, best melee cav in the game)
3. Harami (upgrade into Aserai Faris --> Vanguard Faris, very flexible cav, very strong)
4. Forest Bandits (upgrade into Battian Fian, best archer unit in the game)
5. Sea Raiders (either keep them or upgrade them into sturgian infantry --> spearmen or axemen)
6. (Looters) (looters upgrade into T2 imperial troops which are the most flexible infantry in the game, they also level the fastest)
Raiders (Steppe bandits) are easily the best on par with Highwayman (Mountain bandits),
Harami are easy to get (Desert Bandits).
The others are just good enough infantry unit, they are strong on their own, sea raiders have good javelins, Forest bandits are good archers.
All of these units upgrade into the very best units in the game and easily make the strongest endgame army possible.
But keep in mind the mentioned tips in the video about how to deal with horses/warhorses as requirements.
You seriously show off so many mechanics I didn't even know existed
Nice
I always found it easiest to just intimidate the bandits into joining without a fight. They usually do this if the numbers are stacked against them. The most I've gotten to join at one time is 53 with my army of +100... got lucky with that rng since I didn't have scarface. Forest bandits work well for this since normally they can rip you apart other than that, I hit bandit camps in the horse lands to get those super fast bandits without having to get them on the map. They fall really fast when attacking their camps. That got harder after they changed the khan guards to no longer have maces... As for prisoner recruitment, have at least 1 of each bandit/ prisoner type and garrison/ dungeon the rest. It goes down the chain and flags 1 at a time for recruitment to make the process much faster. Force conscription doesn't just give the units from the village. You can also take their militia as prisoners when it tries to resist.
Didnt realize i could maximize recruitment with a mace!
wake up babe Hal posted
Amazing work my dude, any chance that you review some bannerlord mods? Like freelancer? That d be cool
The partners in crime perk in rogue skill seems to make it where I always get bandit groups to join me no matter their size no. the most notable time was when I got a group of 43 sea Raiders to join me and I only had 94 men
To catch horse bandits.
There is a quest that ask you to hunt down 8 bandit groups. When you accept this quest bandits around that town purposely stop and get caught.
If you want to hunt down horse bandits acceptibg this quest is the best way to do it.
One thing you missed is sledgehammer. It is a 2h 110 reach mace. It can be used from horseback with bit of practice. Also looters have use end game. Put small group in separate loose formation and place in front of the army. AI will shot them full of arrows and javelins instead of your more expensive troops.
there is actually a summon undead mod on steam workshop pretty bare bones but cool none the less
jesus christ this is some good content
I love being on campaign and seeing a group of 100 looters, If your army is large enough they are free troops. Also, legionaries are the best shield infantry in the game once you upgrade the looters. You can also just throw them in a fresh castle as a skeleton force to secure a new conquest from the random lords who may try to retake it without an army
I always used to leave my calvary home. However they are very useful when an enemy comes to defend their city with an army of their own
Halcylyon when will Ukzug start his own kingdom, love your content btw
i think you need 5 times the bandits numbers to recruit them from dialogue screen and avoid battle. so 5 bandits wish to be recruited if your force is 26 men
New Recruitment idea: create alot of parties and then wait in a town or do couple quests and go to clan then look where the parties are then go there and the click “Inspect your troops then get then disband and click the party then let them join your party then repeat
nice
Poachers from the quest can also make good recruits for bandits.
"Those can be upgraded into khans guard which are he scariest fucking thing you can see on the battlefeild"
Accurate
Battanian Fian: and I took that personally
@@sargon15dk Khan's guards eat fians for breakfast unless its a siege
Looters with 500 medicine is pretty funny. I once got that much medicine from an update skill gain bug (shot from 30 to 500+ instantly after an update.) That skill tree basically made them all rock throwing tanks thanks to the extra health I added to them. Btw early game Steppe bandits should be recruited through bandit camps. That's what I do since they are always so fast. I had a raider only playthrough a while back that ended up being a khan's guard only playthrough. On the hardest difficulty, I was able to go 200 units (me) vs 1000-2000 units (enemy lords) while losing next to no men and winning every time. They were just so good. That was a great way to build friendly relationship with enemy lords btw. Just siege a place, never take the place and milk the lords every time they came back for more. This method got a lot harder when they removed the khan guard maces, so the guards I get can't help me knock out bandits in camps... worst change by far since all they did was add an extra bag of arrows.
I am going to see the hu in may!!!
Enjoy your time with the Mongol Raiders! :)
There's also a perk that make prisoners increase carry capacity, so they will turn a profit anyway.
I LOVE U HAL
I love the series Halcylion and it's been a great help on my first play-through of Bannerlord! One thing I'm having a little trouble with is keeping track of which perks you take on certain skills that you either don't focus on in the videos or haven't shown at all. I've screen-capped a number of frames from your vids so far, but what would you think of maybe making an Excel or Google doc with your perk layout? It's not that I'm looking to copy your choices, but I'd be interested in using it as a guide to compare what you've done vs what I might prefer!
Yesss FIGHT FIGHT KILL KILL ROB ROB this is the way to have fun
In any mount and blade video i never hear **steppe bandit** but **step bandit**
**WHAT ARE YOU DOING STEP BANDIT**
I missed part 2? And I can't seem to find it. Edit: never mind they weren't numbered before.
I think the best way to build up a bandit army early that is solid and is easy to obtain is to clear aserei bandit bases! Very easy to clear!! Easy to grab prisoners!!
Finaly
Here for the algorithm
i will predict that you will gain 1mil subs in the future. at least.
weird accent hal is back
I feel it's worth mentioning poachers, as they are found in large numbers from certain quests, and despite their low tier and wages, while they lack much armor they are easily superior to t3 imperial archers offensively, and are not that much worse than t4 imperial archers due to the fact that, while they have slightly lower ranged skill (better than t3 imp archers), their basic longbows are generally better than the imperial archers shortbows, as their moderately higher damage, makes up for slightly lower attack speed.
Totally agree. Plus durability isn't super important in archers unless combat comes down to the wire; which given that I often send them into melee the moment archery ceases to be useful, probably is more important to me then it should be. XD
u can get units when joining a kingdom last time i joined a kingdom i got about 10 units and a sword and some money dont rememb exactly the types
Bandits are surprisingly hard to come by, and the bigger your army the harder it is to catch more.
Vassal single-time reward with troops and weapon,leave kingdom and do that to every faction,only 2lvl clan and relationship with faction leader above -10 is needed
How do you level leadership so high? I can't get it to level up at all, and Roguery? You let yourself get caught and then escape prison or what?
Awesome series btw 😁
The second video in this tutorial series answers both of your questions and more: th-cam.com/video/GvMlWCw6e2o/w-d-xo.html
The memes never end lol
I love how your mouse cursor stopped at not recommending this game))
I'm punped
I wish you could set up your own bandit camps.
Im at 400 hours and still havent been able to take over even a quarter of the map. Time to become a bandit lord.
"Ser Ilyn, Bring me their heads!"
Great video. Did your raider king stay single? I know that marrying can also get you a good "ride or die" warrior with her own party. Would help immensely in your rise to power. I assume that's something you'd want to do sooner rather than later though. Haven't tried to marry into hostile relations, but I assume it's difficult, if not impossible.
When making a bandit character I often go: "This kingdom will be my safe haven" and screw everyone else.
...this is often Battania, Sturgia or Aserai, I feel these are more "RAIDING IS FUN" then the rest. However I usually skip Khuzait, even though they technicly fall into this category. Im more of a Infantry&Cavalery player.
Ah, fighting in a shieldwall with Sturgians is so nice.
Also there is like a Leaf shaped spear that you can swing with to cause blunt damage ;)
Added some Thumb Tokens to the comments, Forest Bandits are the best the Steppe Bandits
a comment for the algorithm gods
A reply to please the algorithm.
It used to be you can give your subordinate party all your bandits. Then he will come back with a bunch of elites.
I see how many hours you have and realize I play to much. I've yet to see someone with more hours than me. scared of how good the game is.
so there will be a part 4 :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Like guys!
Whats the best way to upgrade the bandits? I only get the option to convert them to a regular troop.....
👍
how...HOW...have you only got 26.8k subs? It's obscene
I miss ukzug already
Hiring a medic would really help with this. You and your troops can recover much faster.
Why when you can level up your Medicine really fast by sending in the looters.
@@KevinSmith-qi5yn To not waste points in intelligence
New patch change a lot
My problem is always to get a big enougha rmy to invade/conquer cities and castles. I think 190 soldiers was max onmy very late game char. I don't think I got up to 267 even as a king.
catch steppe bandits is eazy
Halcylion, what's the best bannerman gift in your opinion? Like the "supa fast" Aserai horse or Caladog's broken AF Reaper (with mere 40k re-sell value)?
I don't know, I only joined 1 kingdom. I like Caladog's Falx, but I can craft it myself.
@@Halcylion Indeed. I found out a crafted polearm sledgehammer is actually the best weapon for me and it can be sold for 6,5k, even though it requires less than 100 smithing. Give that thing to bröther and bandit bases will curse your family.
LION HOHOHOH
7:30 - Does this mean lords are only lootable if they are killed?
