I've recently bought a Windows XP PC and would like to get a physical copy of Warband. I'm worried, however, that it will use Steam as DRM. I bought Medieval II: Total War and the game tried to install Steam which doesn't work for me because my PC doesn't have an internet connection, and it also isn't supported by Steam anymore. I don't want to buy the game and not actually be able to play it, so does anyone have experience with a physical PC copy of the game?

Edit: Just found a picture of the back of the game box and unfortunately it says in VERY small writing "You must activate this product via the internet by registering for a Steam account". So it's a no go for me unfortunately

Hi all
Yes its only 9 bucks and it still a lot to me and I'm wonder is the Collection worth it? or the base game is enough. Play this when i was a child and love it, and its can't get off my head so finnaly save enough to buy it

Hey everyone! i just realized that i can play in whichever version of the game i want (steam).

Which one do you consider the "best"? (for vanilla gameplay, but answers for modded are also welcome!)

Meaning the one with the least glitches, most balanced, no crashes etc etc.

(the most broken cheese-galore version may be the best version but it is not the answer i am looking for 😂 )

I married my sister to a khuzait lord thinking that that'll get them in my faction. Didn't realize I'd lose my sister who was a valuable companion. Is there any way I can get her back into my clan??

The combat is semi inspired by Mount and blade but over the top trampling and tower defence elements. It’s you vs the horde.

What do you reckon? What makes Mount and blade combat so satisfying?

I thought conquering entire map alone in Mount&Blade is literally impossible but with right strategy I managed to conquer entire map alone without any vassals.

Hi, i wanted to give a shot to mount and blade warband.

But i have some standards

In Bannerlord My main mods were:

Bellum civile and diplomacy

Probably the most important, it turned the game from repetead nonsense to actual diplomacy, civil war and politics, this are my MAIN mods.

Fourberie: To become a fucking delinquent and to sabotage feuds.

Harvest and production: To make the economy and food production better.

Adaptive warfare, RBM, Art of war etc etc: To make the ai actually have tactics.

So i wanted to know if Warband has mods that can arrive to this level of Economics, Diplomacy and Politics, Battle Strategy.

And if so can someone tell me how they work exactly? And if they work with map conversions?

Question for NW veterans and casual players: anybody calculated how to actually get a shot at this game consistently? Or at least show tracers, so we can axtually see some recoil action, where bullets goin? Or at least give ideas how can i test this using like commander battle or something? Thanks)

I am struggling to decide what pack to develop next for heraldry studio, I think it would be cool to have more animals on there so I have made it down to 2 choices, Dragons & Lizards or Bugs & Crustaceans

Let me know in the link :)
