Sturgians are based on a group of city-states in medieval Russia.
You want some room to breathe from the other cultures on the continent.
You want to focus on infantry in your army.
Limited options for Ranged or Mounted units.
Cultural bonus is really only useful in Sturgian lands, nowhere else in Calradia.
Their noble troop tree doesn’t really stand out at all.
Infantry units are exceptional when used in a shield wall.
Location on the northern tip of the map gives them limited borders to defend.
Cultural bonus gives you 20% less of a speed penalty in snow.
Descended from mercenaries and merchants from further north, they conquered the Northern regions of Calradia as the Calradian Empire began to decline in power. The Sturgians are a strong warrior culture from Northern Calradia. So let’s go through each of them, and look at the good, the bad, and the ugly of Bannerlord’s cultures. This is because each of the six cultures you can choose from give you a stat boost, some of which are incredibly useful and some of which.are less so. This choice will have a small, but consistent impact on the rest of the game. Raid that faction's village or caravans so you can lay siege to their major settlements.The first real decision you are faced with in Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord, is what culture you want your character to be from. In order to take a major settlement, you need to be in hostile with the faction that owns it. How do I take a settlement when I am independent?
Be independent, you cannot a be vassal to another Kingdom.
Then you need to meet following requirements: To create your own Kingdom, the first thing you need to do is progress through the main quest line until you repaired the Dragon Banner. Keep your spouse in your party for some time, and you will get a popup about a pregnancy. (you may want to save before asking someone to marry you, as if you fail to pass the persuasion check, you won't get a second chance.) You need to speak to a single noble of the opposite sex (require renown), and if you succeed, you can bring presents to his/her parents for approval. To have children you have to get married first. You can get renown by killing bandits and winning tournaments. Get enough and you'll be allowed to talk to the nobles, get some more and they'll let you join. You can check our Trade Goods map to see each settlement's product. The profit of the workshops depends on the product of each settlement. If you prefer a peaceful approach, you can buy workshops in major settlements. Caravan guards are a little bit more difficult to deal with, so you may need a larger force to raid them. With even a small group of mid tiered units, you should be easy to defeat them. Villages usually have 20-30 unit militias, but they also lack cavalry and good armor. If you don't mind being a cruel raider, you can take hostile actions against villages and caravans. If you take her back by force, she will temporarily join your clan, meaning you can take her much superior equipment and replace your starting gear. There is one low tier quest requiring you to find the missing daughter for a local landlord. (except for the steppe bandits, don't let them catch you unless you already have a small army.)Ĭertain quests can also help you a lot. Due to the lack of cavalry and archer units, you can safely farm them with horse-archery. You can loot their belongings and ransom the prisoners to get you started. Keep moving so you become harder to hit.Īt the start of the game, your best bet is to fight looters and bandits. Or, you can try circle around your opponent and aim for the head. You will have to predict their moves to make the right block.
