      Then what would be the point of all the other banners?
      Plus, that would be a ton of effects.
      Personally I think it should make the other nobles more likely to join you, and bandits more likely to surrender. By about ~15%. Not OP, but not pointless. Something that let's the gameplay reflect the narrative importance of the banner.

    In my experience, the moment you create a kingdom everybody and their vassal declares war on you, no matter how weak or powerful you are. You might as well level up smithing early so you can start amassing millions of denars, that way you can afford to pay tribute to all but the one kingdom you plan on smashing first.

      Most people don't know this.
      It's because you declare yourself a kingdom.
      I took 2 towns and 5 castles before I declared my kingdom.
      If you have goods relations with every clan then they won't declare war on you since you are but a clan.
      When you declare a kingdom its when they declare war on you; Even if you are the only clan in the kingdom.
      Because it comes up to vote the clans won't vote to declare war on a single clan since that's direct relation decrease. But when you are a kingdom;The relation stays the same.
      I just found this out on my latest playthrough.
      I took maraunth and seonon since they both have four villages, also are right next to eachother and made peace and no other kingdom declared war on me till 5 years later when I declared my kingdom.

      I took 2 towns 2 castles from rebels, farmed influence and got in good relations with alot of lords and when I declared my kingdom nobody declared war on me but the minute you piss someone off is when they do so if your relation is (-) then you're fucked.. I made companions as lords and hired powerful lords to join me, to stop nobles from leaving you all you have to do is give them 100k and they're happy and won't leave - shocker I know honestly don't need to give them fiefs if you really want too just cash, I tested it.
      But think about it you can't just declare a kingdom without money or power not only does that make no sense but quite moronic. It's a political game the game is a strategy and talks about preparation alot so next time you start your own kingdom do what it always tells you too and PREPARE ffs

    yea, the best thing to do is just not complete the quest until you already have a powerful kingdom up and running, where you can take on the other factions even if they team up against you. Other than that just keep doing the anti-conspiracy quests to keep the progress bar down but that gets tedious fast. Not a great main quest if the best way to do it is to not do it heh.

    Yeah the conspiracy quests were PAINFUL, I gave up and ignored it since I was just one town away but then WHAM three front war on an already overextended front with all of the other armies pissing about taking a castle somewhere else as I have to slaughter tens of thousands of units over and over again only to get 5 bits of progress and lose 20 because they captured a couple castles. It must’ve been years since I’ve last not been on the frontline taking down infinitely spawning khuzait hordes and sarranid besiegers. I swear I’ll capture 30 lords only to have yet more armies pop up out of nowhere and take castles on one end of the empire distracting me long enough to take another.
    It doesn’t help that there’s a cap on prisons and all of your allies will dump trash units instead of lords and you cannot put them anywhere close to the frontlines. I’ve considered mass execution but I think at that point it’ll be a joker moment where I turn around and then execute every single lord in my own faction for not being able to fucking do anything like STOP SIEGING SOME RANDOM BATTANIAN CASTLE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HELP ME

      I got pissed off as Battania when I single-handedly captured all 3 imperial emperors and their top retainers, and the ENTIRETY of the Assyria nobleman, and was lugging them around defending 4 fronts, and then Sturgia and Vlandia declared war and proceed, with a combined force of 8000, proceeded to annihilate my battanian forces that numbered in the low 20 thousands.
      I had literally 2.2x the numerical advantage in AI units, and my AI could not win a single fight against the two smallest kingdoms whose territories were relegated to 1-2 towns and half a dozen castles in total. Meanwhile I single-handedly defeated the 4 strongest simultaneously, whose territory amounted to approximately 50% of the map.
      I got so mad, I decided to besiege the last Vlandian town while the homie Ergeon (only useful army AI leader) besieged the last town. At the enemy gates, I had all 4 emperors in my possession executed, alongside the remaining nobles who hadn’t managed to escape. In total,I beheaded 43 nobles in one afternoon. The notifications of loss of reputation continued to ping over 100 days of game time later. It guaranteed total war with the world, without surrender. I quit the game after that.

      Yup. For whatever reason the devs thought it would be a great idea to be forced to fight 3 factions who are at full strength at once. U have to take about 5-6 fiefs from each faction & hold your own to be able to force them into peace. That's at least 15 fiefs total. Pretty stupid..I'm done with that part & I reunited the entire empire but the game has gotten only harder as I have been at war with 3 to 4 factions since reuniting the empire. I have not declared war on anyone not 1 time in this game & I have never had a period of peace. This game is wildly different from warband in that regard. I can't do outside quests, recruit new lords, etc bcuz I'm always at war with the entire calradia

      @Sgt Nitro The Khuzaits declared war on me 4 additional times since reuniting the empire. After the 3rd time I decided I'd finish them off. The Aseri & the Sturgians declared war on me shortly after. The AI was surprisingly holding their own defensively against the Sturgians but the Aseri was quickly wiping out any progress I made in their territory by taking every fief that I took from them back. For whatever reason, the AI was creating armies & going on the offensive in Sturgia, despite my strategy being defensive against them & offensive against the Khuzaits. I literally had to disband several armies & make them join my party. Once they all did I released them then they created armies & started seiging Khuzaits turf which is precisely what I wanted from the beginning. By the time I got to the last 2 fiefs, the Aseri had taken back all but 1 fief that I held from them & they were still at full strength. I finished the Khuzaits off just before the Aseri besieged a imperial town on the border. I was able to get over there & defeat them in time. Long story short, many game months have passed & the Khuzaits have been without any fiefs but they're somehow still around with 2k men. I have 0 control over who I declared war on bcuz I don't have enough influence to overrule 22 lords who for whatever crazy reason, would want to go to war with another faction despite already being at war with 2 other factions & being at war for like 2 game yrs. To make things worst, somehow, the Khuzaits declared war on me & AUTOMATICALLY took control of a castle DEEP in imperial territory. First thing I thought was, maybe someone defected to them but every lord has more than 1 fiefs so I would've lost more than 1. Now they have 4200 men, high tiered troops & armies deep in my territory seemingly out of the blue when this faction should've been gone awhile ago. Then the Aseri declared war on me again. So here I am again at war with 4 factions lmao. I stopped playing after that. This game was created without any logic whatsoever

      I'm in the same situation too, this part of the game is really hard and after I managed to defeat one of the 3 empire, the remaining settlement got annexed by one of the 2 others empire, they had like 25~ faction but dropped to 15~ rn but since they had so much faction, they could make a lot of big armies with 1k mens each and even if I would tried to destroy them, enough of other imprisoned leader would break free, and PS you could have recruited factions member of the empire but only if they had no settlement and had a neutral opinion with their emperor.
      Rn I think I'm on something and might be able to push the empire way back to Vlandia but I'm kinda scared of Vlandia since they are pretty much as strong as me (12000 pwr) and empire got 8000+7000 pwr too.
      I might have some issues to push them back because Azeri just declared war to me and they got 9k pwr and I can't just hold a 3 front war from the north the West and the south. I can't just control my kingdom and decide to just declare peace when I have to spend 2400 influence to force it and I kinda feel I'm in a loop like the other guy, when I conquer a settlement I can't rest and they already took it back, my mens don't want to defend it...

    Yeah, you have to be very prepared BEFORE handing the banner or using it. A big mistake I made was even though I was vassal in a kingdom, I handed over the banner to the king very early. My character was not ready in terms of resources, clan tier, army size, etc. Dealing with the conspirator armies and hideouts weren't the issue. It's the pressure of war from multiple factions all ganging up. I was doing this being vassal in one of the Imperial factions. I imagine this would be a lot harder as your own independent kingdom before you were truly prepared and powerful.

    tip before building/join kingdom
    u can claim city without join/make kingdom
    just wait for rebel city and attack them and take city
    after the rebel clan wil get destroy and they are not strong at all
    at this moment im on 600days left got 3mil and 5 city and clan tier 6 , 2 days play time of my save without join/build kingdom
    and i gave allot of money to noble to build to build relation with those clans
    so they can join me later when i make my own kingdom
    merry your sons/brothers off to high lvl lady they wil join your clans if she not queen of faction
    use lady to make them governor of city u took and respec them for governor perks
    dont merry your daughter off u wil lose your daughter use them for governor role or caraven/party
    before building kingdom build your party and your other companion party to max, so u can put them in army after join/building kingdom
    make sure u got soms other clan to 100 relation before making your kingdom

    At this point in the game, only one kingdom went to war against me, and that was the kingdom I was a vassal to. When I declared that my clan was it's own kingdom, nobody cared. All the other kingdoms were busy warring against each other. Even after that, only one kingdom at a time as ever declared war on me. Maybe I've just been lucky. As a vessel, they voted me 5 towns and 10 castles before I left and took it all with me. Also, I was releasing nobles after battle to gain favor.

    I seemingly got soft locked in trying to assemble the dragon banner and start my own kingdom. I had an Imperial town and castle but the game said I wasn't Imperial enough to start a new empire. So then I got rid of my holdings and took a town and castle from the Battanians but the game said I was too Imperial to start a non-Imperial kingdom. Sandbox mode is much better and doesn't give you the same hassle. As far as I can tell, the only advantage to campaign mode is that you get guaranteed a few family members for your clan.

      If there are breweries in the area selling cheaper beer, yours won’t sell. Two options, micro manage yours, buy grain cheap, sell it to the town your brewer is in and buy some beer, initially at a loss but you can sell it for profit. Or buy the competition, change it to a tannery or something useful or just change it and sell it, eventually you’ll make a profit. Best bet buy one free from competition in the first place, good luck fellow brewer.

At about 20 days left I talked to Istiana and then gave the banner over to Garios with 17/12 imperial settlements under our control.
