Since when I am techinically a commoner, it will take me awhile to get vassalge, which is what I actually want to do in this playthrough. I also havent leveled up as fast as I want to with this character, mostly because of the type of start that I wanted, but that is mostly my own fault. Then I basically rise and repeat, getting money to buy food and pay my soldiers every week. Then I head back to Wercheg to sell my loot and then gather recruits from the surrounding villages surrounding Wercheg. I mostly do my fighting on the coast near Rivacheg. Sure I have a short sword, but the bow is my main weapon. My character, Rylin, is a horsemen/archery type character. The one thing that has been a pain so far is that I have to travel far to get recruits, so I get a bunch at a time, but then I will also loose a bunch when I end up fighting a larger Sea Raider battle. Now, for the most part, Sea Raiders have been my own and only way to fight. For one, I have never really played as the Nords at all and second, I actually feel like I am winning at Warband. This singleplayer playthrough has been really intersting so far. This time, I play as Rylin, a horsemen based character for the Nords playthrough. Now, like the Sarranids, I have never really played this faction before in single player and so far it has been one of my better singleplayer playthroughs. My point bieng is that the Nords have good armies, but I wish that the AI Nord lords would hire mercenary Cavalry, just to even the playing field.ДЇor this guide, like all of my other Warband guides, I will be using in game experience.

Not going to lie, but in my Swadia playthrough, I was cutting through Nord armies like they were not even anything at all. Now I am not saying that having horsemen is everything in Warband, but it just stinks to have suffer through constant cavalry charges from Swadia, Vaegires, Sarranids and the Khergits. LIke the Rhodoks, the Nords are good at taking castles and towns, however, lack cavalry to use on the actual battlefield. The Nords have the best infantry in the game, so thier armies are similar to ones of the Rhodoks, except replace crossbows with archers and you get the Nord armies. Swadia is directly south and to the east is the Vaegirs and Khergits. The Kingdom of Nords are located in the northern part of Calradia.
