With all these mods Bannerlord actually feels like a full game and not early beta. My personal favorite is MyLittleWarband - it allows you to create your own troop trees. It's a lot of fun and should work with most mods here.
It is amazing mod. I wish that mod that changed cost of unit improvement depending on equipment cost also still worked, that made for me planning the unit tree unteresting excercise in efficiency, instead of just using best stats equipment.
This is my first real introduction to modding on pc. I’ve only been playing on pc for 2 years (console kid my whole life), and modding looked too intimidating for me. This game had me hooked, and after conquering Calradia in my first playthrough, this video was really easy to follow and you explained it really well. Thanks for this
I have 851 hours in Bannerlord atm, and the last 100 have all been playing the 1700s Europe overhaul. I ADORE it! Most mods work with the overhaul, and GUNS!
I wish you success brother since you're probably the sole reason why I started bannerlord and fell in love with actual history (finally got a real hobby). I truly love your guides since they are straight forward and easy to understand. Once again thanks for making these videos.
Thanks Strat as always. I was so frustrated with TW breaking compatibility with every minor patch, so I put aside the mod development. But after being featured in this vid, I guess I have to go and update it 🤨
your frustration is extremely valid and you're fully justified in not modding for this game anymore but just so you know.... there's a lot of us out here that silently thank you and appreciate what you do with mods. Here's a verbalized one (well...in text form) Thank you.
Lol don't let your significant other convince you to watch K Dramas! :D Although I am watching a Korean cooking show on Netflix right now that is pretty good... A lot less crying lol
Love the video. Already had most of the mods but added Party AI (mostly to stop them from donating troops to garisons) and Character Reload. Some other mods I use and like: Detailed Character Creation - > I use this especially to edit any companions\wives\family members so that they don't look as ugly as they look by default. vbody and FaceTextureOverhaul -> for same reason, so that female character look at least decent. Horses - > I love to bond a horse and get its stats a little higher. It's also nice that you can whistle for it to come back to you if it ran away in battle and you can refill your ranged ammo once per battle from his saddle. BetterCore and Better Attributes -> So it fills more like an RPG and attributes give more than just learning cap and rate Basters & Concubines -> When I want to have a companion army, it's nice to make a concubine army of the best stats ladies in Calradia.
The thing with RBM is you need the posture system in many cases to be able to land hits on Elite units with high combat skills, otherwise their blocks are perfect. Those few free shots after a stumble to the ground are your only chance to make progress.
bro.. just.. ur a fucking legend.. i've gotten cravings to start probably my 7th campaign so far and this waz just what i needed to push me into it.. thankz and appreciate u for still doing more for the game then its own devs
Legit the best most thorough walkthroughs on TH-cam. Fingers crossed we get similar content for other overhauls in the future! (plz try warsword conquest start gaming dad)
My dream is to see Viking Conquest (Warband DLC) being remade for Bannerlord, it doesn't matter if it's done as a mod or DLC, I would really be happy if the essence of the DLC was present here in Bannerlord
@@Strat-Guides now we just need next years "i earned this on youtube" and then a 2000$add gift, same add -28000$addiction Btw, love those vids with explanations since your mostly the only one that have the balls to say what they earn on YT :)
@@kamikazebob9105 I'm planning on doing those once per year for the public channel and every month for Patreon/TH-cam members :D I'll probably do the annual one in January. I was going to do them more frequently, but they don't get many views and take a lot of work and I have to be smart with my time. But I'll continue to do them! I won't be able to disclose any individual sponsorship contract since that's against the contract we sign, but I can give a rough estimate of the total from all of them combined.
Hey Strat. Got this mod list working well so far it seems! Got all the settings the same as yours. Solid effort 👏 The only thing I haven't encountered yet is being able to recruit companions via distinguished service. It is still early days on my campaign, my character is only 20. Hopefully the mod is working and it's only because no one has distinguished themselves yet, that I've yet to see it 😅
Nice list, I was personally using a couple others that weren't on this list that I'm hoping don't cause problems such as "kill bandits raise relation" "more bandits" "immersive battlefields" and "DynaCulture" no problems so far to report, I'll edit this comment if I do come across any, my new save is gonna be companions only, so I can more properly control my troops and by extension the overall battlefield oh and I didn't add realm of thrones stuff, not for me as of right now, since I want to get a bit more of a feel for the base game before I add mods that change everything I turned down the multiplier for companion xp to just 4, having it so high was a tad much tbh
I recently spent a lot of time in the Old Realms total conversion mod. Although I know almost no Warhammer 40k lore, I enjoyed it a lot. Additional abilities allow you to solo large armies with ease, you get magic, gunpowder weapons,elves, vampires, minotaurs.... I recommend you try it out.
Great video and showcase of mods. Had a Skyrim mod addiction that I only recently received rehab for, so I might wait before I go down another rabbit hole. But know this, I will use this video as a descent into the madness of mods when I fall off the wagon. Cheers.
Just reset my PC and lost my entire working modlist for 1.2.10... great timing 👏 Edit: Oh hey, does MyLittleWarband work on this? I know Improved Garrisons hates that mod when it comes to auto-recruiting but still
My Little Warband does work, but the copy template button instantly crashes the game with Realm of Thrones. Some reddit users and I have shared this problem. I also couldn't get it to have my troops spawn only at my settlements, but that was probably just a me issue.
I just heard about this game last night and heard there was a lot of mods. Brother this video is so full of info and you don’t drag it out more than need to be. Can’t wait to get this game. I hope it is on steam
did you end up getting it? its alot of fun and theres more than just this for mods theres a fair argument to be made that the old realms on steam workshop has more content added in general and that one is warhammer fantasy themed
I’d also recommend Landed Houses Rot, it adds a bunch of canon houses I feel the mod left out, also makes each kingdom slightly bigger which leads to more armies/bigger battles
I would add Cut Through Everyone (Xorberax Legacy) and Dismemberment Plus as must have. Once you play with those 2 and cut off 10 heads in one swing there's no going back to 'vanilla' version
@@RaulDLnot sure if it really matters, generally speaking both go under the Main Story components; I put Xorberax over Dismemberment as it adds more stuff into the game
Dude thank you so much I literally just got back to Steam after letting a friend borrow my PC for a year and have been trying to get a list together. I’ll leave the dragon stuff out and add blood mod, but otherwise this is perfect.
I'm surprised that more people aren't recommending the Novus Launcher. Way easier to manage mods, you can have presets, change ingame settings and it even has a button to unblock dll files for you
I guess I'm just used to doing it this way and I've heard of other launchers having problems in the past so I stick with the manual method. I'm sure it's good though!
Sure if you want to spend 30 years getting them to level 200 farming hideouts lol By the time they're ready for battle, they are just about ready to die of old age :D
If taleworlds isn't going to update their game then they should at least give us console players a mod workshop because mods are probably the only thing keeping banner Lord alive and I just wanna enjoy the game 😔
It would make a stronger army weaker because higher tier units should be able to break through enemy posture faster. With it off, the enemy tier 1 can block 100 attacks in a row without issue - with it on maybe only 2 - 3 attacks and then their posture breaks, short stun and then finally a killing blow
I appreciate this guide. Havent played in a long while, but this may get me back. Its kinda sad how many mods are semi-essential for the great gaming experience
Just downloaded everything and booted up. I did end up downloading some "newer" versions since the video release, guess we shall see if it works haha. Messing with in-settings now. I appreciate how simple but thorough your guide is. Was able to follow it super easily. EDIT: So far so good. The economy seems mega busted, defeated a couple bandit groups and have enough gold to fund me for a long long time. Cleaned out Winterfells gold after selling loot. Been nice getting back into the game.
Not on topic but I hope you will continue to play Raid (unlikely tho) I have been playing for 2 yrs and it's a good time filler if you have any to spare, but lately there is a lot of FOMO in it, so beware. Also THANK YOU for the complete mod guide, I have a few that I wanted to give a try, so now I know which one will likely work.
Hey man, I did everything you said and it still crashes on launch. All the mods are the same version and the game version is also right. I tried deactivating all mods besides butterlib,harmony ect. and only use the GOT mod but it still failes to run. Just stuck at the loading screen, any tips? After trying to use everything besides the conversion mod ( the 4 ROT files, it launched but using them crashes the game)
Alright boys I'm a retard. But I'll let you know that my personal fix was to fucking wait in the loading screen for a little longer. I thought that it crashed every time but if you load up the game with all the mods for the first time it takes a while. Everything was frozen and my CPU usage went over the roof so I thought the game died every time but nope - wait for 5-20 min, make a coffe or sum shit like that and you're good to go. The next boot up of the game went fast btw.
My first time trying RBM and I'm glad it isn't fully optimised for RoT, still able to slash knights in full plate armour with a sword because RoT original armour and sword stats aren't altered. Encouraged by this, I tried RBM with vanilla and man, it's painful.
Outstanding video, thank you! This is so helpful and detailed, but in a way that someone (like me) with little PC knowledge, can follow. It is clear that you put so much time into this to help others, I really appreciate that.
Another banger Strat !! Now i really want to see you try out the warhammer mod. Im curious on what would be your opinion on said mod, would love to watch a playthrough !
Using this mod list aside from the Thrones mod and im getting a crash after battle is won on a fresh campaign. I followed the mod order guide. Any way i could work out which one might be causing it without turning them on and off one by one?
For Realistic Battle Mod, any tips on how to NOT hit enemies with the handle? Even with shorter weapons I just keep ending up handle/pommel hitting them instead of with the blade.
sounds like you need to back up you shouldnt be kissing your enemy in a fight especially with longer weapons you want to use all that range to your advantage its better to swing and miss from being to far then to be to close and open yourself up to danger also the combat takes awhile to get good at im on 700 hours and im barely able to win my duels on the harder difficulties bows and glaives are always the safe answer
Did a fresh install for this and followed all instructions. I can't even get Bannerlord to launch from Steam now, even with all but the native mods disabled. I have to use BLSE to get the launcher open to change the mod order and open the game. Can't get to the main menu before the game crashes with this mod setup.
Did you run the DLL unblocker by chance? Typically that's the main reason why the game crashes before even loading up, so if it's not that then I have no clue :(
I am currently in the process of buying a pc for this game and this game only😂 I’m a console dork at heart, but I need the total banner lord experience
I have a small issue. Loot I recieve after battle is worth a LOT of money. Ten looters give about 10,000 gold worth of loot. I have only downloaded the mods in your showcase, do you have any idea what could possibly be the issue? Otherwise everything works great, but this issue kinda ruins any sort of struggle in the game, I can buy max tier loot after killing 6 groups of looters, etc. I have no clue what the issue could be, I know it is ROT as the same issue was occuring in Eagle Rising. Any feedback would be very appreciated! Thanks for the modlist, definitely what I was looking for to get back into the game.
@KomodoNinja there's a lot mod in this list - turn that off and you should be good to go! I had it on because i was running a companion heavy campaign and i needed the extra gear
Does Distinguished Service still cause crashes after battles, or has that been addressed? I used to really like that mod, but it was a major source of instability.
I have not had any issues with this list and Distinguished service, so I believe it's been addressed. I know what you mean though - it has been a source of crashing in previous mod lists.
thank you so much for this I wanted to reinstall the game but was too lazy and this helped a lot, would be cool if you did another video with an expanded mod list that works. thanks for this guide.
@AugustusMarius-ly1gv I'm not sure, i only tested this for 1.2.10. On the file page if you scroll down you'll see a list of all the previous versions, maybe try one of those?
As it relates to Party AI controls, I was under the impression that making companions into (vanilla) group leaders means they gain Leadership XP, which is about the only advantage I can think of to the new way of grouping troops the way TW does it. Do you know if that's the case, and if that IS the case does the old way/Party AI controls effect that?
If you go into your modules folder, can you find a folder named "Harmony"? If you can, then did you make sure to run DLL unblocker before you launched? If that's not it, then I'm not really sure. It's hard to trouble shoot from the comments section :(
@@Strat-Guides Thank you for replying i've runned the dll unblocker a few times i decided to get harmony from steam workshop which fixed my problem but now it saying I error to every single mod i downloaded I probably made a mistake somewhere and retrying it again
Ran into the same problem and double checked every mod…I will also try getting harmony from steam but keep us updated please 😢 Update : the unblocker was in the wrong directory, all good now.
@@wombat8812 in the folder where all the mods are. The problem I had was that I ran the program while it was in the original directory (or folder) so I clicked and dragged the program from there to where all my modules are. Hope this helps! I also took out the distinguished service mod because it made my game crash. I suck at all things computer related but willing to assist you however I can if you have a similar problem to the one I had.
A while back I thought I saw a video that discussed a mod that adds loot to containers found in bandit camps and castle keeps, but I can’t find it. Anyone heard of anything like that?
There was an issue with the DLL Unblocker link I had provided when the video first released - if you have not ran the DLL unblocker yet or used the link i had there before, try this updated one and see if that helps? www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/397?tab=files
Been trying to get the new RoT version up and going and now it'll go to "Mount and Blade II Bannerlord" screen, guy starts running, he stops, starts again, and then game just closes. No errors. Just back to desktop. Anyone else run into this?
If you're like me and the Unblock DLLs has an errror or still crashing the game, you need to edit the UnblockDLL.ps1 script with a text editor and change the path to where your game is installed.
Change this
$InstallGame = Get-ItemPropertyValue "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Steam App 261550" -name "InstallLocation" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
to your install path (example)
$InstallGame = "c:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mount & Blade II Bannerlord\"

I cant believe this modlist is yours, I spent about 5 hours trying to get all these mods working last night and now I got this video
Love the video. Already had most of the mods but added Party AI (mostly to stop them from donating troops to garisons) and Character Reload.
Some other mods I use and like:
Detailed Character Creation - > I use this especially to edit any companions\wives\family members so that they don't look as ugly as they look by default.
vbody and FaceTextureOverhaul -> for same reason, so that female character look at least decent.
Horses - > I love to bond a horse and get its stats a little higher. It's also nice that you can whistle for it to come back to you if it ran away in battle and you can refill your ranged ammo once per battle from his saddle.
BetterCore and Better Attributes -> So it fills more like an RPG and attributes give more than just learning cap and rate
Basters & Concubines -> When I want to have a companion army, it's nice to make a concubine army of the best stats ladies in Calradia.
After I am done with my Kenshi play through I think I will give this modlist a try!
really sad they haven't put any meaningful updates in quite a while, but i'm really happy to have modders putting out great content
The thing with RBM is you need the posture system in many cases to be able to land hits on Elite units with high combat skills, otherwise their blocks are perfect. Those few free shots after a stumble to the ground are your only chance to make progress.

My first time trying RBM and I'm glad it isn't fully optimised for RoT, still able to slash knights in full plate armour with a sword because RoT original armour and sword stats aren't altered. Encouraged by this, I tried RBM with vanilla and man, it's painful.
Better troop formations is single handedly making me give the game another chance.
Thank you so much, that was very helpful 🙏, because I get mod order wrong so often
We bannerlord like we bannerlord forever
Is RTS camera still working for you guys? It keeps causing me game to get stuck on the first load screen when it launches.
Yeah I'm working on a campaign right now and it's working fine - still using this same list and game patch 1.2.10.
Thank you so much for making an updated list man.
Taleworlds owe you some serious money for the work you do 😂
@@SpydeTJ hopefully they don't do a hotfix and ruin it lol
I've been inhaling the Taleworlds copium since they announced the game nearly a decade ago and I'll probably keep at it unfortunately 😂
@SpydeTJ lol I'm over 5k hours into bannerlord so i guess we're in the same boat
If I could like this twice, I would. Thank you!
Thanks for the support!!
Outstanding video, thank you! This is so helpful and detailed, but in a way that someone (like me) with little PC knowledge, can follow. It is clear that you put so much time into this to help others, I really appreciate that.
I can't move siege machines after loading some mods, I have no idea which one is the cause of the problem
Maaaaan, thats huuuuuuuge!
Also grats with sponsorship even though raid is obviouse shit))
Lol thanks!
Strat is no joke the best ❤
Another banger Strat !! Now i really want to see you try out the warhammer mod. Im curious on what would be your opinion on said mod, would love to watch a playthrough !
Thanks Lucho! I've got the Warhammer mod on my Bannerlord Let's Play list :D I'm not sure when, but it will happen
Using this mod list aside from the Thrones mod and im getting a crash after battle is won on a fresh campaign. I followed the mod order guide. Any way i could work out which one might be causing it without turning them on and off one by one?
Yeah I fixed the issue, as mentioned in another comment I just made sure I was using the correct version of all the mods.
Bannerlord dismembered
For Realistic Battle Mod, any tips on how to NOT hit enemies with the handle? Even with shorter weapons I just keep ending up handle/pommel hitting them instead of with the blade.
sounds like you need to back up you shouldnt be kissing your enemy in a fight especially with longer weapons you want to use all that range to your advantage its better to swing and miss from being to far then to be to close and open yourself up to danger also the combat takes awhile to get good at im on 700 hours and im barely able to win my duels on the harder difficulties bows and glaives are always the safe answer
THANK YOU ! to the modder who created - Better Troop Formations mod. k
For real - I've been complaining about the new system since it came out lol
Did a fresh install for this and followed all instructions. I can't even get Bannerlord to launch from Steam now, even with all but the native mods disabled. I have to use BLSE to get the launcher open to change the mod order and open the game. Can't get to the main menu before the game crashes with this mod setup.
Did you run the DLL unblocker by chance? Typically that's the main reason why the game crashes before even loading up, so if it's not that then I have no clue :(
what is the ship battle mod used during the “realistic battle mod” part of this video?
That's part of the Realm of Thrones mod!
ahh i see
does realm of thrones work w BKCE
@@vishnuprem1516 I'm not sure, i have not tested it
I am currently in the process of buying a pc for this game and this game only😂 I’m a console dork at heart, but I need the total banner lord experience
Yeah it sucks they don't have mods for console
I have a small issue. Loot I recieve after battle is worth a LOT of money. Ten looters give about 10,000 gold worth of loot. I have only downloaded the mods in your showcase, do you have any idea what could possibly be the issue? Otherwise everything works great, but this issue kinda ruins any sort of struggle in the game, I can buy max tier loot after killing 6 groups of looters, etc. I have no clue what the issue could be, I know it is ROT as the same issue was occuring in Eagle Rising. Any feedback would be very appreciated!
Thanks for the modlist, definitely what I was looking for to get back into the game.
@KomodoNinja there's a lot mod in this list - turn that off and you should be good to go! I had it on because i was running a companion heavy campaign and i needed the extra gear
thank god. viva strat gaming guides
Does Distinguished Service still cause crashes after battles, or has that been addressed? I used to really like that mod, but it was a major source of instability.
I have not had any issues with this list and Distinguished service, so I believe it's been addressed. I know what you mean though - it has been a source of crashing in previous mod lists.
Might be a reach but a elder scrolls mod would be 🔥 to me or atleast one based on the Great War in cyrodil
thank you so much for this I wanted to reinstall the game but was too lazy and this helped a lot, would be cool if you did another video with an expanded mod list that works. thanks for this guide.
Are there any economy mods that allow you to see buy/sell prices for everything?
if you edit your trading skill level there are perks that tell you a place to buy for cheap and sell high if this helps
@@ace3154 Thanks!
The Punisher meme always gets me. 🤣
Is there a version of distinguished service that works with 1.2.9?
@AugustusMarius-ly1gv I'm not sure, i only tested this for 1.2.10. On the file page if you scroll down you'll see a list of all the previous versions, maybe try one of those?
As it relates to Party AI controls, I was under the impression that making companions into (vanilla) group leaders means they gain Leadership XP, which is about the only advantage I can think of to the new way of grouping troops the way TW does it. Do you know if that's the case, and if that IS the case does the old way/Party AI controls effect that?
every time i load up the mods are in correct order but i get a notification error saying it couldn't load harmony
If you go into your modules folder, can you find a folder named "Harmony"? If you can, then did you make sure to run DLL unblocker before you launched? If that's not it, then I'm not really sure. It's hard to trouble shoot from the comments section :(
@@Strat-Guides Thank you for replying i've runned the dll unblocker a few times i decided to get harmony from steam workshop which fixed my problem but now it saying I error to every single mod i downloaded I probably made a mistake somewhere and retrying it again
Ran into the same problem and double checked every mod…I will also try getting harmony from steam but keep us updated please 😢
Update : the unblocker was in the wrong directory, all good now.
@@zacklemay3543 Where did you end up putting the unblocker?
@@wombat8812 in the folder where all the mods are. The problem I had was that I ran the program while it was in the original directory (or folder) so I clicked and dragged the program from there to where all my modules are. Hope this helps! I also took out the distinguished service mod because it made my game crash. I suck at all things computer related but willing to assist you however I can if you have a similar problem to the one I had.
Great video 👍
A while back I thought I saw a video that discussed a mod that adds loot to containers found in bandit camps and castle keeps, but I can’t find it. Anyone heard of anything like that?
I've downloaded everything and I'm using your exact settings but every time i complete a battle my game crashes any tips?
It seems to be distinguished service, I think is broken now
yeah its distiguished service
Just asking but on which version is Realm of Throne stable?
This was on 1.2.10
@ appreciate it! Will definitely try it as I just reverted to that version!
how come i cant get rot to work? every time i have it in my list it says bannerlord faced a problem
There was an issue with the DLL Unblocker link I had provided when the video first released - if you have not ran the DLL unblocker yet or used the link i had there before, try this updated one and see if that helps? www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/397?tab=files
Which Game version does this require? And can older versions run all these mods? If so which version is best suitable?
This is all tested for 1.2.10. Some mods might work on older versions, but it's hard to say which ones without testing them all.
Been trying to get the new RoT version up and going and now it'll go to "Mount and Blade II Bannerlord" screen, guy starts running, he stops, starts again, and then game just closes. No errors. Just back to desktop. Anyone else run into this?
