#MOUNT AND BLADE TROOPS FULL#

They have good archers with good armor and melee capabilities and their infantry is also pretty good wielding two handed axes and good armor. I think that vaegirs and sarranid are the most balanced factions. Their bows are fast but they damage is lacking, also from my knowledge they are pretty ok in melee and have good chest armor.ДЇor crossbowmen i think swadian sharpshooters do the job, they are again a worse version of rhodok sharpshooters but in my opinion look cooler. Sarranids again, their master archers are from what i know the second best archers in the game. They use two handed axes which are absolutely amazing to be honest, they break shields really fast and delivery amazing damage, not only that but they have pretty decent armor. Sarranid guards for the second spot definitely, they are just a worse version of vaegir guards. The third place has to go to the swadian sergeant, i don't know much about them but they just seem like a worse version of rhodok sergeants. (like slow motion weapons)ДЇor heavy infantry the second place is rhodok sergeant, they have better shields than huscarls but they need to be upgraded from rhodok spearmen and they are pretty bad. Faster and more maneuverable but squishier and arguably better weapons because they use bardiches which do a lot of damage but are way slower. From what i saw in my game they seem to be faster and more maneuverable because of their higher riding skill but also squishier, they do use blunt weapons though which are good for taking prisoners.ДЄlso the third best cavalry in the game has to be the vaegir knight, same story here. The second best cavalry in the game is in my opinion the sarranid mamluke. Tuidjy is right in every category but he left out the second and third best troop types so i will give them to you here. Thank you for the answer!I want to make an army like Cavalry and sharpshooters something like that. Swadian knights, Nord huscarls, Rhodock sergeant are the way to go, then. If you play with reduced damage, heavily armored units are nigh invulnerable. Depending on your style, you can use a combination of all three branches (cavalry, infantry, ranged) or just use two or even one of them.

Originally posted by Tuidjy:Each faction has (at least one) top tier unit in each category available to it. There are sieges where crossbowmen work better in assault or defense.

The ultimate army is Swadian knights and Vaegir marksmen in the field, Vaegir guards and Rhodock crossbowmen in most siege defense, and Nord huscalrs and Vaegir marksmen in most assaults.

If you play at full difficulty, and eventually you should, you will notice that combined forces work best, if you want to do the most for the least expense. Depending on your style, you can use a combination of all three branches (cavalry, infantry, ranged) or just use two or even one of them.ДЄs for which faction has the best of a particular troop type. Each faction has (at least one) top tier unit in each category available to it.
