Social Group: Warband

Archer? Heavy Cavalry? Axeman Berserker? Everything is fun in Mount and Blade - but: I'm pretty sure most of you guys have a favorite Character type in Mount and Blade. If you find yourself having many different save games, but in a lot of these the warrior you created is kinda the same, then this type represents yourself and your preferences. So to get to know each other a bit better, why don't we create a list here with everyone stating what type of M&B fighter he is - to prepare ourselves for the BIG battles in some months

I'll start:

I really enjoy nearly every possible weapon/character build, but when it comes to battles, I often take a: (surprise...) Footsoldier / all kinds of Polearms, sometimes a sword / pretty often a crossbow. Not the uber berserker char, more like a supporter, but I like this one the most!

So what's yours?

For the list, I'd suggest a "Footsoldier or Mounted / Melee Weapon / Ranged Weapon" Layout. The mods may work on the list too, of course

[Adorno1]

I like this idea

Adorno: Cavalry / one-handed sword / bow

or more precisely:

(heavy) horseman / one handed 'sword' (well, sabre/scimitar) / shield / bow

[Ishoss]

I have plenty of different characters and I am able to fill many roles, such as horse archer, axeman, knight with sword, light cavalry with lance, knight with lance... you name it.

My favourite however is my Nord berserker, armed with a two-handed weapon. He looks most awesome with an axe, however I think I am currently using a voulge.

So: Dismounted/Bow/two-handed weapon/obviously unshielded

Edit: I think there are standards in Hegemony 468 b.c (or something like that)

[Thorn777]

I usually start out as heavy-cavalry, but after riding behind the infantry line I always end up dismounting and slashing up at least 30 foes with a polearm in an gruesome killingspree.

Its getting kinda boring though, maybe I should revert to some more lighter gear and sophisticated tactics. Saber and javelins sounded nice.

[ivan_the_terrible]

I prefer a medium-strength horse (a hunter, usually), light armour / sabre or scimitar / light shield / and javelins. Love my javelins

[Armatus]

Horse archer.

Is there any other choice?

[molls]

Horse archer.

Is there any other choice?

man that was so obvious

[Turkeys!]

Cavalry/Sword/Twohander/Sword and Shield


All depends how i'm feeling lol

[ccllnply]

Cavalry/Two-Handed Axe/Bow/Shield(to protect back)

[Kamos]

I split my time between Calvary/Two-Handed and Foot/ Two-Handed.

[Antiochos VII Sidetes]

Cavalry/Two-Handed Axe/Battlespear or lance/multiple javelins.

[Slaxx Hatmen]

(light/medium) Cavalry/One-Handed Sword/Spear or Lance/Shield/Some Javelins & medium to semi-heavy amour.

Overall, think of a Norman Knight at Hastings.(Or a mounted Anglo-Saxon noble if your still bitter about that.)

[~Beren~]

Hmm, my play-style varies depending on what mod I play. But I usually go around playing:

Cavalry / Lance / Javelins / Bow

[newromansc]

I like fighting with two handed weapons, but i will also never use calvary for I fight right beside my Nordic brothers. I lead my men into battle for I am not a coward.

[Axeman]

Calvalry / Axe / Bow / Lance

[Zymran]

Most of my characters are either heavy cav with 2-handed weapns and LOTS of armour, or berserker types on foot with giant axes and much less armour. Generally i like big weapons

[Swagger]

foot / two handed axe / bow


and the empty slot is a shield (on the back)


i hate horses, it gives you too much advantage

[Rugler]

Footsoldier / Spear / Crossbow.

[Zymran]

Spear? Really? I've never got the hang of them...seems as soon as the enemy gets close, you're boned

[Godfrey I of Leuven]

Played the demo, great game

Foot / Crossbow / Pole weapons or Great Sword
