Just a heads up - I wanted to test this new format out and if people like it, I can do this for each grandma guide I release: Short version with only high level points and the long form that explains every single step and some extra bonus tips here and there. Also the original video didn't meet the sponsorship requirement for views so they wanted a 2nd video anyways - 2 birds with 1 stone :D Please give me some feedback on this format and let me know if you want this in the future or just stick with the long form?!
@@Strat-Guides I love this short format type of guide, especially with the step by step written build. I appreciate the long ones too, but those can be overwhelming with all of the information thrown at me at once, as a new player.
Hey Strat, thank you for all the effort you put in to make these guides, I've been enjoying your KCD guides for a while, then I decided to start bannerlord and boom here you are again. Thanks again
Another great video guide from this channel. I just started playing this game weeks ago and your guides help me a lot since the game just didn't tell me how to progress or play battle. Now I'm addicted to this game. Thanks a lot and keep doing god work mate
Even tough I am past the beginner's guide I always enjoy your videos. I would just want to add that maybe you should have warned them at the workshop stage about getting a workshop that uses a resource the town has. I think most are like that but if they get unlucky and buy one that doesn't, they might wander why it's so bad.
Yeah I know what you mean. Try to focus on those combo quests (escort caravan, save prisoners, sell to landowner needs laborer) and you should be in much better shape!
Theres a new mod where you can build your own town villages and castles. Very cool. Ive made it super expensive and clan teir 5 so its a money sink and takes a realistic amount of time. Guide will help make it there thanks dude.
I always thought quest size (number of bandits, towns for the caravan, etc.) is determined by your clan tier and not by how many times you have done the quest.
@SithLurker i would have to check with Hero on that, but that sounds like it may be the case. I probably misspoke here. What i meant to say is later in the campaign the requirements will go up for each quest
I would love if you have the time to make the short videos, but if you can’t, we can skip around the chapters as well. Maybe after the beginner guides, advanced guides might be a good next step.
I'm just starting out and I'm having trouble with the basics. Question: What block and attack settings do you use? "By Movement" or "By Look Direction" in the game settings?
@danspound personally i use look direction, but i think it's more important to pick one and practice it until it's muscle memory. I think either one would work though
what's the point in investing early in INT and stewardship when you can just get companions later? it's not like the number of troops was critical early on for any of your strats, medicine doesn't seem overly important with low tier troops either, what's the point in wasting those points early?
I'm using Old World but tactics are tactics, I'm playing as Wood Elves, an archer heavy army with light cavalry and I'm struggling with enemy heavy cavalry, what tactics would you recommend? Currently I've been using 2 V formations one behind the other for my archers so the Cavalry hit at an angle then get stuck in the second row but it's still taking a long time to win some battles.
Hey strat I’m that new player that just found out about the game with the full on depth breakdown you put up, I’m still on first run, had a question probably just me being stupid but I am currently a vassal of vlandia and I got 3 castles and 2 cities but now even if I conquer a new castle or city by myself he is giving it to other lords what can I do to start getting cities and castles I really want?
@@trippymonk9480 hello since nobody replied, i will. so, first of all, you don't neccessarily get what you conquer by your leader. leader assigns the fiefs either from corrupt reasons or according to the council. now, diff ppl have diff priorities on diff fiefs so you might solo conquer a city but someone else gets the city because it's supposed to be his families fief. generally, if you participated in the fight for the new fief, your chances will be higher but no guarantee and likewise sometimes you won't even be present and be rewarded a random castle. anyways, you can ask to trade fiefs in the kingdom tab. still want more land? maybe consider forming your own kingdom but be ready for war and payments. sidenote: bordercastles and cities are more likely to be awarded to you since you are probably low to mid tier with your clan. they are hard to defend but at some point the border might shift and then you have worked for a good city. castles are not for making money, just for more villages to increase the town's income. yeah, gl bro
@@udozocklein6023 thank you so much I Litterally had stopped playing because I was mad as heck about this but this clarification makes sense thank you for doing the awesome answer you are so goated man TRULY THANK YOU! you saved a young scrubs 1st run completely!
I appreciate it! I'm not 100% sure how it works - if it's for ads watched or ads clicked on? Either way, don't worry about it. As long as you're watching the videos and leaving feedback that can help me improve, then you'll be doing me a huge favor :D
@MrKoti777 sandbox you get to pick your character's age and get bonuses to your main, campaign you start at 21 or something like that, no bonuses but you get 3 family members to use as companions. We don't rely to heavily on companions for this guide so sandbox makes it easier

short one is good because most of the people wont sit 2 hours watching a guide
Options are always good my man. Having both with draw a bigger audience in total even if they don't watch both of them.
I watch both. I really like them, you have a great way of explaining everything without filler. Very great videos!

U should also look for lords who want horse it cost 2500 debars to get 6000 to 9000
I have 400 hours in the game, played various mods, and watched the long version allready.
LETS GO NEW STRAT VIDEO
Approaching 10,000 hours in the game yet I still watch most of Strat's guides because they are packed so precisely/concisely full of information.
Hey Tactical! Thanks for showing some love, I appreciate it :D
what 10 000... i thought my 1100 is a lot but 10 000?
@@ProfesjonalnyTH-camr I'm barely over 5000 lol this man puts us all to shame
@@Strat-Guides Not sure, maybe the shame here is my loser ass playing one game for the equivalent of 24 hours a day for more than an entire year(LOL)
@HeadlessHorsemanProductions much better to be a happy loser than a miserable success IMO! You seem pretty happy in all your videos :)
Your guides are legit one of my fave parts of TH-cam.
Wow, thanks!
Thank you for your in-depth guides, love your videos!
I saw you still respond to new comments on old videos. Really cool and thoughtful. Love your videos
I try to get to most comments, but it just depends on how many I get for the day (and a little bit of luck)!
Hey Strat, thank you for all the effort you put in to make these guides, I've been enjoying your KCD guides for a while, then I decided to start bannerlord and boom here you are again. Thanks again
Im glad that you got featured in Taleworlds announcement on Steam

Excellent guide. I’m giving it a try right now. Thanks for making excellent guides and content for Bannerlord.
Love your Videos!
Thanks! :D
bro thank you for this ive been trying to get my friends into bannerlord and this will help a ton!!!
I have the hardest time making money in the early game. Clan tier 2-3. As I can have more troops, I go slowly broke.
Yeah I know what you mean. Try to focus on those combo quests (escort caravan, save prisoners, sell to landowner needs laborer) and you should be in much better shape!
Get the mod true battle loot. This will help improve the loot system while also help your coffers.
Strat you continue to be the GOAT of bannerlord, thanks for the video
as usual great work, love this guide
good to see comeback of bannerlord guides
Also there no link to longer one
Woops I'll add that in there now!
Theres a new mod where you can build your own town villages and castles. Very cool. Ive made it super expensive and clan teir 5 so its a money sink and takes a realistic amount of time. Guide will help make it there thanks dude.
Caravan Ambush is always my Go To quick quest. Usually pretty easy, get some valuable prisoners, good amount of Loot.
9:41 That was my second ever castle! Good tines.
My grandma is a savage, if she wandered into the countey side alone, she would have 8 fiefdoms and 2,000 serfs that want to follow her
Good Old Strat is back.
I've got some tactics videos in the works and should have some ready before end of the month!
@@Strat-Guides Chceck out eiteh Napoleonic or Warhammer mods. That would open to You an Era of Gunpowder Tactics.
My grandma is going to be a better gamer than most people after watching this video.
Grandma has no idea what a midland palfrey is tho 🤣
Only old people watch horse riding competitions, so maybe Grandma actually does know...? :D
I love the idea of a grandma guide
Nice video👍

Which stat is better for companion parties. Steward for more troops or scouting?
@david7171 Steward for sure!
Makes me wanna play again
@@4984christian careful, it will suck you back in lol
Love all your vids
And after the fiefs and stuff what do you do what's the end game or late game
I really wish they would update this game it has insane potential man..
Im so bad i need more than 250. More like 250,000 troops
I did not get enough sheep and pigs. go to a sheep village. they have plenty!

Will You make a series with the new Warhamer mode?
Did you just start your short run fellow short king

I have gamepass can i put mods on the gamepass version?
Can you do a "solo clan" world conquest by executing every noble you cupture so the enemy faction have less army force?
yes but when they have no more lords my game doesn't load anymore. it's better to inprison some
What bonuses from starting at age 40?
@masonpxssy7402 every 10 years you get 1 attribute point and 2 focus points
"While keeping the video under 10 minutes."
So that was a fehkin lie.
I put a disclaimer on there lol doesn't include the intro, outro and sponsorship
You should make a video with tactical enlightenment
@@zaynthesloth8755 his content is very good! I wouldn't be opposed to it.
@ maybe a vs of your guys tactics or something I’m not sure how the PC multiplayer works but that would be sick
I'm fine with watching adverts as I thought you earned money. Probably minuscule but maybe it adds up.?

The fine print says "excluding intro, outro and sponsor segment" :D
Thank you, I’m 63 years old and this helped me finally get into playing this.
WHY do all of the guides sleep on the Empires boatd games? Bet 500, play as the defended, it takes 1 mins, 500 gold.
what?
