Mount & Blade
Mount&Blade, war has come down on Calradia and war attracts its own bunch of misfits. Men ride to war, for one or other reason. Some because they are looking for thrill and excitement, some because they are desperate and know no other way. Some because they are so bitter and hateful that they are willing to unleash doom on earth. Yet some, who are the very heroes, will step forward to stop that. Combining a sophisticated, dynamic game world and intense medieval sword fighting action, Mount&Blade has you venturing through a world filled with daring enemies as well as friendly groups that will come to your aid or need yours. In a land torn by constant danger, raids and skirmishes, you will raise and lead your own war band, commanding dozens of hardened soldiers. You will hunt down your enemies following the tracks they leave behind. And you will fight epic battles where arrows cut the air with deadly hisses, axes and swords hack with fury, and horses and men clash into a violent melee. Interact with hundreds of characters - hire mercenaries to build a private army, accept quests to assassinate troublemakers, or boost your reputation by buying a round of beer at the local tavern

Mount & Blade Reviews
Most of the fighting is done by men under your command, though your personal fighting ability is important. Mount&Blade is a game that simulates combat with medieval weapons. M&B is highly addictive. There is supposedly no magic in the game, but you and the other Lords (party leaders) are immortal and Lords have some way of knowing the location of all other Lords of their faction.
Speaking about cities what's up with the 1 ladder or 1 tower siege. Map: More cities - more functions within the cities. Combat system:. I give this game 3-stars because the combat system is flawed whether when you are fighting on the field or be-sieging a city, and the map could have been bigger. Overall is a good game but It could have been better - the potential is there, maybe an add-on to the game somewhere in the future would make it even better. Your troops don't respond well to your commands. Join tournaments, recruit soldiers/mercenaries to fight under your banner, do tasks, trading, hunting bandits & caravans, and so on. There are times when no matter how times you give the commands the troops do not respond to the commands - it gets worse especially when you are besieging cities.
A sandbox game with a combination from Medieval II: total war and Grand Theft auto(just a little). Why can't they add more ladders and towers when you are assaulting the cities. Basic description of the game:. You play the role of a mercenary looking to 'score' in the midst of turmoil & chaos in the land.
Some people complain about roleplay.Although I think the amount of different story lines and character interaction is plenty for me. Fighting is not hard at all.once you get used to "Looking where you attack".
It's Easy and loads fun. Steer with your left hand and hack away (exactly where you look) with the right hand (using mouse of course). It's a 1st person shooter, only you don't shoot guys, you fight medevil style. The games emphasis is about combat.
The specifics have been said. I haven't lost this much sleep for a game in over 10yrs.
This game is definitely not for everybody, but it is worth trying as a demo. Hard to say in advance whether you'll like it, but if you like it, it will give you many hours of entertainment. M&B is not one of them, but still it is a surprisingly nice game. Still I play it on and off. The best part for me is riding and fighting, though I got bored rather quickly. I love RPGs in general, but I prefer the ones with a compelling story-line.
I've played the beta versions of it, on and off for about three years, and I just keep coming back to it. I'll play new games, but I always come back to Mount&Blade. Everything from samurai, ancient greeks to the renaissance are represented with historical accuracy, and ,most of all, fun. I understand that some people may not enjoy this game as much as I have, but to me this has been one of the funnest games I've played. It is an action rpg where you make your character, build an army, and fight other nations. It has a massive modding community, so they're are mods for nearly any setting, you just have to select what module you want to play in, and it changes the game to a whole other world.
