I personally like the pendor troop trees, so I go that route, but look at the others if they suit your play style better. Once you've got a kingdom, it'll ask you what kind of culture you want. This gives you a semi central location for your first solo war, and while Singal is more northerly, it will be valuable in the long run as a more central capital to direct affairs from.ĭon't forget that you need at least 15 (30 if a female character) right to rule before you rebel or else all the other kingdoms will declare war for giggles and kicks. Request it as a fief and if denied rebel. Then retake it once they've buggered off and left a shitty garrison behind. If at all possible, I'd suggest engineering a way to get one of those two (possibly even faux Britain (red)) to take Torbah or Singal. The sand people will constantly get into wars with the Vikings (green) and Roman wannabes (yellow), so start looking for which city you want as your capital to start with. Worst case, it's a few extra items in the castle inventory.
Right, I'm not as big a fan of starting with them, but there are some upsides.įirst the books.
