#MOUNT AND BLADE BATTLE ADVANTAGE MODS#

Neutralizing enemies is not the only way to the victory. Here are some basic tactics that can be very useful. These factors will determine your best course of action. There are many things to consider when planning a battle, including your surroundings, your army composition, and your own style of play. (Note: the above hotkeys are for classic Mount&Blade, Warband provides a different and broader set of options.)

F11 - Use only blunt weapons/Use weapons at will.

if Cavalry is selected, it will select Infantry and Archers)

The two unit types that were not previously selected (e.g. Hit the Backspace key during the battle to see a list of all the available commands.Д¤. If you hold Shift, you can select more than one troop type at the same time. Using the number keys (default setting) you can select a portion of your army (such as your infantry, cavalry, or archers) and give them an order with the Function keys (F1-F11 with default settings) to hold a position or follow the player etc. Using commands is another way to improve your chance of victory or to reduce your losses. Archers can have trouble hitting targets due to obstructions. It doesn't really matter for heavy cavalry.

Forest: Same as gorges, but trees will make cavalry operations difficult.

Get your troops in a good formation on high ground. There's no point trying to ride the cliff mounted. Light cavalry will have more chance of victory against their heavy counterparts.

Gorges: Just plains with some hills and bumps.

Place your archers/crossbowmen on any hills you find. Even the best Rhodok spearmen will find their party swarmed by horsemen.

Plains: Good for cavalry, bad for infantry.

Horses are completely immobile in water that covers their heads, though water this deep is not common. When submerged in deep water, breathing is not needed. They can also be used as protection for archers because the river gives them more time to strike distant targets before they become a threat. Rivers can reduce the effectiveness of cavalry like Swadian Knights because it effectively stops charges. Hiding your troops in riverbeds make the enemy's archer/cavalry tactics useless, forcing them to come down and fight in close combat.

Rivers: These slow movement, and are good ambush spots for shock troopers like Nord Huscarls.

Dismount your knights when the battlefield is mountainous, and attract your enemies into deep rivers and slow them down.

There are some mods that allow you to join any battle, including one between two enemies.ДЄt the end of the battle, you will receive the after action report which will tell you the casualties, allow you to take prisoners, and collect loot.Дifferent terrain requires different tactics and formations. You can also join a battle already in progress between two other parties, but at least one of the parties must be either an ally or a neutral party and the other must be an enemy you cannot join a battle between two enemies. To start a battle you can attack the enemy or wait to be attacked. This is the best way to engage in any battle because your presence can easily beat staggering odds. The second option involves directly leading your troops in combat. This is highly unfavorable however, as the calculator the computer uses often inflicts 1:1 casualties on your troops no matter what their quality is.

One of your options is to allow your troops to attack without you, allowing the game to generate your losses and the enemies' losses until one side emerges the victor.

They help you progress through the game by generating experience, money, renown, loot, prisoners, and can directly increase weapon proficiencies.Д«attles can be conducted in either of two ways: Battles are a large and frequent part of the Mount&Blade series.
