My village was constantly raided and there was no point in raising up an army during the multiple wars. I lost my entire army of cavalry and a few mercenaries to the various lords. The Vaegirs, Nords, and Sarranids declared war and knocked down the Khergits to just a bunch of castles and no towns. Still no castle yet, but I can only hope that I can get one soon.ДЄfterI became a vassal, everything became very difficult. Another goal is to have some fiefs under my control and to own some businesses within the Khergit Khanate Lands.ДЄfter fighting the foes of the Khanate for awhile and gaining some more renown, I went to Sanjar Khan and he allowed me to become his vassal. This is my first step towards becoming a vassal, which is my goal of the campaign. I did loads of quests for the local Kherhit Lords and eventually was hired as a mercenary for the Khergits. I am sure that this is the case for all bandit groups, but it was really challenging to build up a decent sized army. For example, a group of Steppe Bandits would be too small and I couldn't catch up with them or the group of Steppe Bandits would be too strong and I wouldn't be able to defeat them. There have been times when my army was too weak or it was too strong. The one thing that I have struggled with and will continue to struggle with, is money and fighting the Steppe Bandits. The army makeup of the Khergits is all cavalry, except for the Khergit Tribesman, which are the only footman units. The area of the Khergits is known for the Steppe Bandits, which are similar to the Desert Bandits in the south, except they are all cavalry units. Training up my army was and still is difficult. I did the beginning quests to gain some experience and some denars in my pocket. Already this was a struggle, because I was not as fast as some of them. TheyвЂ™re the faction that makes the game interesting, and you can virtually take whichever path you want with them.Since when I started off as a Lord, I needed to get some more renown and meet new Lords. The kingdom of Swadia is likely to be too busy in other wars to send an entire army with a marshal to retake the hold youвЂ™ve attained. Furthermore, Swadia is always in conflict, making fighting for them quite an action packed adventure.ДЄlso, they are the perfect target if you want to create your own faction and capture one of their cities. This faction represents the classic western European knights we all love and read stories about, and you can be sure these powerful knights are reflected in the game as well.

ThatвЂ™s because they are the face of the game. They are the center of the map and every faction I just previously mentioned will all likely declare war on them simultaneously.

Swadia is a faction that will get absolutely demolished and steam-rolled every game. Unless you have an astounding love for Mongols, you may like one of the other factions better.

Now this is extremely annoying because half of the time you arenвЂ™t able to catch up to them unless you either get lucky enough with looting a super fast horse, or you have a boat load of money to buy one.ДЇighting for the KhergitвЂ™s on the other hand is equally hair pulling as you soon will realize just how long their battles take every time you are waiting for your allies to successfully hit enemy troops with the bow and arrow on horseback. This faction is a representation of the Mongols, who will relentlessly circle you on their super fast horses firing off arrows at you and your army. However, that soon changes when the player decides to join the battle as they are found to be more вЂњannoyingвЂќ than good. strength, many of the opposing factions will surprisingly lose some battles fighting the Khergit Khanate. They are at the bottom of the list because they are probably one of the most annoying factions to fight.
