Translator here. Last part of the comic I've translated so far is in
>>396 and I've started doing part 12.
If someone recalls me from halfchan's general I'm kinda struggling with the onomatopeias as I'm not a native english speaker. I'm writing now because of one such problem.
How do you mark an onomatopeia for grunting while lifting heavy things? Is there such thing used in english comics or just written english language?
Pls.
No.3166
>>3121Ok, done, fuck the onomatopeias tho.
I suspect I'll have to change the title for the final release. This page made it apparent to me that the title of the comic is meant to be a homage of sorts to Nobunaga's Ambition series (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobunaga%27s_Ambition ). I'll change "Aspirations" to "Ambition" so it fits the official english translation of the game.
It might be a reference to "The Ambition of Oda Nobuna" but I haven't seen any direct clue to that one so I'm sticking with vidya reference.
No.3203
>>3166Good translation. I think the next time you want an onomatopeia for heavy lifting, you can just go with something like "Hnnnnnrgh" or "Ghhhhhh", which would sound like grunting or strained breathing.

so its my first time playing and I've won a tourney or two and I have my own shitty boarder village and I own a Brewery. Is it me or does money just go fast in this game? My warband got wiped and everytime I try to rebuild it some beef bandit warband or some ridiculously strong deserters decide they want to rape me for fun. Is there an easier way to make money than slave trade or land? How can I reliably level my warband when its almost impossible to muster enough troops or they get instawiped by a bigger one that ambushes me?
No.5481
>>5465Push a few points into Trainer so while your guys aren't kicking ass/getting their asses kicked they're getting experience. You don't have to be the Trainer master, but if you put at least 2 points into it things go smoother. That covers your army's shittiness which otherwise you have to maintain yourself with Leadership (and therefore CHA) and choosing your fights. Also loot and burn enemy villages. Villagers are weak as shit so if you've got good gear, there's a good chance you can slaughter most if not all of those shits by yourself. Just don't get cocky with them, a giant group of villagers have the potential to kill you, but just not as much as others.
Oh, and building rep with villages increases the amount of volunteers you get. Also sometimes they throw in slightly upgraded units in the mix.

>>5651I always play Rhodok myself, and yes, they are godly (floris AND native). Although I'm talking about their troops, not necessarily their AI power.
High tier Rhodok crossbowmen not only have enough power to punch through armor AND shields, but they are also very competent melee fighters as well with good skills,
armor, and weapons. Meanwhile, Rhodok infantry are specialized in killing mounted troops, plus their pikes reach makes them especially strong in large numbers. About the only thing that gives me trouble as Rhodoks are horse archers, but native horse archers are a fucking joke anyway.
Meanwhile, cavalry AI is so shitty half the time it's more effective to just tell them to dismount at the start.

No.5726
>>5725Mongol horsefucker detected, opinion discarded.
>>5721Yes. Unless you are up against an all mounted-melee army (desert bandits for example), the crossbowmen are going to do most of your killing. I usually run about 1/3rd spearmen, 2/3rds crossbowmen.
It's MUCH easier if you have the formations mod (or any mod that includes it, like Floris). being able to tell your spearmen to use a Shieldwall formation makes them like 5x more effective.
Most of playing rhodoks comes down to telling your guys to hold position in a strategic spot (usually up a hill) and waiting for the enemy to come to you. However, I have found that in the current version of Floris (as opposed to what I played 2+ years ago) that tends to be less reliable as the enemy will often NOT advance at all, or station their archers annoyingly out of range, so a controlled advance is often necessary.
>>5724You play Warband. Warband is basically the same game with added features, so there's little to no reason to play the original and most mods are made for warband.
As far as mods, you can just play native (base game with no mods) for your first game, or you can download Diplomacy, which is just native with a few expanded features for mid to late-game. Or you can play Floris, which is a native-overhaul mod. Floris makes significant changes to most of the game, but under it all it's still basically the same Warband.
Mods like Brytenwalda or Prophesy of Pendor are total-conversion mods and should NOT be played for your first playthrough. Treat them like a different game, a sequel or spinoff.
No.5728
>>5726Its probably true with any army, but I've found that there is usually a troop tier that anything below that level dies in droves.
For my current rhodok/floris game, that level is Tier 5 (of 7 in floris). Any tier 4 or lower troops are just fodder, AT BEST able to go 1 to 1 on kills, no matter how I use them. Upgrading them to tier 5 suddenly turns them into nigh-unstoppable murder machines that go 5 to 1 easy. Tier 6 doesn't seem to do that much better, I still don't have enough T7s to say how godly they are in a full army.

I've been sucking up to the cossack faction and i've managed to amass a sizeable army (a bit over 100 troops).
My question is, how do i talk the lords into letting me fight with them? I've ran tons of errands and my relationship with the head cossack guy is over 50 but i can't find any option that lets me join their campaign or join them in battle.
