[Joxam]

This will be a video LP of Mount and Blade: Warband with heavy viewer interaction. You guys will tell me what to do and I will try and do it to the best of my ability.

First things first, lets make a character.

Character creation will be screenshot.

[Joxam]

I realized that a poll was a bad idea because we'd have had about five polls before we even got into the game and that would be boring. So I'll just give you all the options right now and we can all decided.

Male or Female.

Male is easy because you're a male and it makes marrying into royalty easier. Most of the princes don't want to marry a warlord wife, but I don't mind playing a lady if you guys want.

[R^2]

Play a lady, have a warrior veteran father, and be a steppe child.

Make sure her hair is red.

[Shinra]

The female play experience is a lot more fun, IMO. You have a lot more hurdles to cross to place yourself in power.

I don't know how marriage works or if it works for female characters at all, though. You will have to work very hard to get your commission in any case, as opposed to male characters who can literally do it after they finish their starter quests.

If you do pick female, choose lady in waiting and go with Swadia or the mongol or saracen civilizations whose names I forget. Rhodians and the viking dudes are all dull as fuck to watch because they only have infantry.


edit: seriously though play a lady, you get a lot more out of the game. I clawed my way up the renown ladder by winning a couple of tournaments and then beating the viking king's army during a war and saving the king of swadia from capture. Shit was so cash.

[Malikial]

Male, travelling merchant, shop assistant, goods peddler, lust for money and power. Also, I say male because I never play females in video games unless the main character is female by default and unchangeable.

[Smiler]

Female, A veteran warrior, A troubadour, Being forced out of your home.

[Brentai]

Male, because I see the HURR YER A GURL aspect of the LP getting tiresome fast.  Yes I realize I'm describing the life of an actual modern woman.

Impoverished Noble, Shop Assistant, Troubadour, Loss of a Loved One.  Max out Charisma and Leadership and go for Pokemon Mastery.

[R^2]

go for Pokemon Mastery.

Oh, here I thought it was just me.

[Brentai]

NOPE WE'RE DOING ALL OUR LPS THIS WAY NOW

WE ARE THE PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE

[Classic]

But this would mean that R^2 has a rival.
Joxam could be his equal.

[Brentai]

All I know is Joxam was here.  But what could that mean?
