Kisah AKU n Bannerlord - The Long Night v4.4

Assalamualaikum,

Aku restart balik Bannerlord - The Long Night since ada version baru yang lagi tempting. Biasalah, mod kan sentiasa berubah tapi version kali ni memang terbaik dan wajib apply. Banyak penambahan armor, weapon, dragon, dan most importantly, game optimization. Bagi aku, game optimization yang paling penting sebab dapat reduce loading time yang ridiculous from the previous version. Bayangkan, korang nak masuk town - loading time sampai 10 min. Maknanya lima kali enter town, loading time cumulative 50 minit! Lepas tu, time battle kekadang crash to desktop sebab tak optimize. 

So, bila The Lone Warrior announced yang version 4.4 dah keluar kat Discord, aku memang terus download beb! 8 GB jugak size dia but what the hell, mod ni lah the reason aku main Bannerlord dan sanggup upgrade RAM. Haha

So, start from the scratch balik. Sebab new version requires new game. Boleh je main save game tapi optimization takde effect lah. Again, aku pakai model character yang sama - Ser Fredrik of House Redfyre. Journey dari bawah balik - clan Tier 1, no fief, kena gather companion untuk buat caravan party dan juga beli businesses semula. Tapi for the start, aku cheat sikit lah guys. Bagi extra 100,000 gold untuk rebuild semua tu. Haha

Lepas berjaya rebuilt House Redfyre dan its business foundation, Ser Fredrik pledged his allegiance to King Joffrey Lannister of the Southern Kingdom.

Unlike game lepas aku banyak fokus dalam peperangan menentang the North, kali ni Ser Fredrik banyak habiskan masa against the Baratheon's invasion. Walaupun army Stannis Baratheon tak sebesar Robb Stark, tapi most of them are made up from a professional soldiers unlike the North yang kebanyakkanya militiamen. So, ada fight jugaklah sebab war party aku mostly elite cavalrymen, bila lawan shield spearman ni kena tukar taktik sikit. Dulu lain, kita unleash cavalry charge bertempiaran orang hutan tu lari.

Tak banyak progress pun sebab baru je main, as for now Ser Fredrik berjaya recaptured Pinkmaiden from Stannis and the castle was made the new seat for House Redfyre by King Joffrey. The war is evenly balanced at the Southern theatre as Ser Jamie Lannister's army managed to maintain the defense and now waiting for reinforcement from Lord Randyl Tarly's army to push the Baratheon from Rook Rest.

Ser Fredrik led a successful vanguard attack to relief Lord Mace Tyrell at High Garden whom being under siege by Ser Davos Seaworth and guess what, shortly after that Lord Mace offered his daughter Lady Margery Tyrell to wed Ser Fredrik. Perggh, bersatu kembali beb! So lesson learned from the previous game, aku dah tak nak bawak wife dalam war party lagi. Eloklah duduk dekat castle tu, karang mati macam hari tu. Haha

Yup, here we go again Margery. Takpe, you stay dekat our castle je.

Habis-habis pun bawak Lady Margery keluar melawat villages sekitar Pinkmaiden, such as Hollow Hill and Mummer's Ford yang juga merupakan a part of Redfyre's fiefs.

Since peperangan pun masih berlangsung, Ser Fredrik decided to raise his banner to support the imperial army. Castle governorship was being handed to his brother, Nathanos while our hero himself rode eastward as a part of Lord Mace Tyrell's army to bolster Jaime's invasion of Stormland. 

With the capture of Blackwater Watch, Stannis sued for peace and moved his seat to Dragonstone Island. The victorious imperial's army marched back to King's Landing with its supreme commander, Ser Jaime Lannister was given a military triumph. 

Aku plan malas nak involved perang lawan The North, ingat nak fokus dalam Redfyre caravan & workshop businesses dan juga fief management while at the same time guarding the southern frontier against possible Targaryen invasion. Jangan main-main, Daenerys tu ada naga tau. Dalam version baru ni, ada a few mythical creatures such as dragon, giants, mammoth dan undead wight horses. Thank god aku belum jumpa deme ni lagi. Haha

If Robb Stark's army crossed The Twins baru lah aku akan mobilize troops to assist Lord Paramount Tywin Lannister but as for now, the imperial army supported by our ally, The Riverland still considered a formidable force at our northern frontier.

Ser Fredrik sekarang banyak handle urusan keluarga such as recently wed his younger sister, Alea to Ser Loras Tyrell dan juga train his younger brother, Phasos to familiarize himself with military command to lead House Redfyre's banner suatu hari nanti. His older brother, Nathanos now proven a capable adminstrator with his role as Governor of Pinkmaiden. 

Itu je lah update Bannerlord untuk hari ni, memang agak sucks sebab kena restart campaign. Tapi, memikirkan game optimization yang berupaya merubah the whole gaming experience. Aku sanggup. Huhu
