Description
<<<IMPORTANT v1.2.7 update>>>
Finally the stable version of v1.2 is released on Steam...
You can now enjoy the Pit Fights!
Check the great video "I Spent 50 Days as an ASSASSIN in Bannerlord" by Arean, really nice story telling!
A lot of the features of Fourberie are show cased, so it may be a good inspiration for your new campaign ;)

Save compatiblity notice
As already announced here, this version is not save compatible.
You will need a new campaign.
Good news for you, the basis of the mod is still the same, but a LOT of changes and improvements have been done over the last 6 months!
Check the change logs for more details.


PS: I'm really busy IRL and don't have time anymore to follow all the comments on both Steam and Nexus.
I will keep updating the mod on both platforms but if you want to leave a comment, report a bug, please do it on Nexus.

Ambush and distract
  • Hide in forest type terrains (useful for ambush and scouting).
  • Send a small party to distract any enemy party chasing you (they will suffer a disorganized penalty).
AI implementation
There are 2 types of interaction:
Grudge system
(AI -> Player)
Any hostile action the player does against a clan will increase the grudge level of that clan (you see a notification).
A high level of grudge = high risk that the AI decides to fabricate a scheme against the player clan.
Schemes the AI can use are:
  • Destabilization (Blackmail, scandal)
  • Ransack of your main base
  • Send an elite party to capture the player
  • Murder (both clan members and player)
Good practices to protect yourself and your clan:
  • Avoid focusing on one clan (grudge decreases over time)
  • Try to cap your network % (work on your relation, assign a good spymaster/enforcer)
  • Act wisely ;)
You can consult the grudge level of each clan (if any) from the scheme room (Grudge ledger).
Contracts
(AI -> AI) The player being the agent (funnier than seeing a simple text log...)
Receive contracts proposal from faction leaders (target will be an enemy clan of the requester).
  • Destabilize the targeted clan (scandal, blackmail or incite a rebellion in any of their fiefs)
  • Kill any member of the targeted clan (brutal execution or discrete assassination)
  • Activate in the Scheme Room menu.

Localization
xml file for easy translation (you can send me your translation and I will add it to the mod).

Future plan
Plenty of great ideas ongoing...
Keep improving mod difficulty and rewards...

About the compatibility
Mod tested in sandbox mainly.
Players tested the mod in campaign with no issue (v1.1.x+)

I advise you to make a save backup before using my mod, just in case :)

Globally the mod seems compatible with CEK, Calradia at War etc...

How to leave clan members in town or castles?
Press the + symbol on the far right of the notables portraits tab. If you want to find your clan members later, they'll be at the tavern or in the keep.
