Mount and Blade game is an action RPG with controls for a large army and with a different set of their characteristics. Players will have to develop their state and army. All this happens during the split empire of Calradi.

Each faction has its own unique troops. Each unit has its own advantages, as well as disadvantages. And in order to defeat the enemy with less losses, you need to take into account the characteristics of each fraction. In this article we will consider the best troops of different factions.

About peoples, factions and the army.

Each faction has its own unique warriors with their own characteristics and characteristics. There are three types of classes available: melee infantry troops, ranged infantry troops, and mounted troops. In addition to this, they can be improved and they choose weapons and armor. Which has a direct impact on the game process.

For example, infantry troops can be equipped with medium-range throwing weapons, but with a limited supply of shells. But the cavalry can get an improvement in a full-fledged ranged fighter. When choosing an improvement, the fighter also changes the appearance.

Faction Empire.

After the death of the emperor, there was no heir left and the mighty empire split into several parts Western, Southern and Northern. These main sections of the territories were led by people who were already under the emperor. But they did not want to put up and be under the same flag.

At first, the territory was divided into three parts. The southern part went to the wife of the ruler, the western part was led by the war hero Garios, and the northern part went to the aristocrats. In the process of their disputes and the division of lands, the ordinary people, who united and appropriated two parts of the territory, did not stand aside. As a result, five fractions are located on the territory of the empire.

When developing a fraction of the empire, the developers were inspired by the Byzantine Empire and the Roman Empire. And relying on the available troops of that time, they were able to convey to the players an approximate appearance.

For their ranged class, they have a decent defense of 32 units and there is the ability to equip with a good spear. There are 10 fighters in the squad, and so melee weapons fade into the background. The main purpose is to attack from a distance.

In our opinion, the best kit is the “Long Bow”. Since there is a “Bow” with the ability to deal one-time damage of 64 units. And this is a very important indicator for a ranged fighter. In the case of close combat, he can hold out for a long time at the expense of his defense.

The best equipment in our opinion is the “Barding”, as it gives the armored “Horse”. The strength of the horse is 215 health units. Movement speed 203 units. As well as protection of 33 units. This is the only horse in the “Acerai” which has good protection.

The warrior is equipped with three equipment “Shield”, “Spear” and “Heavy Scimitar”. The Bound Adarga shield has 5 armor and 120 strength. “Spear” “Bamboo Spear” has a weapon length of 184 centimeters and deals a one-time damage of 28 units.
