The Best Mods to Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord (2023 Update)

Mount and Blade wouldn't be such a popular game if it wasn't for the modding scene. Bannerlord goes the same direction, and you can already find some interesting modifications online. Here's an overview of these, plus a sneak-peak of the upcoming ones.

Table of Contents

Improved Garrisons

Improved Garrisons

The garrisons in the latest Mount & Blade seem lackluster. Fortunately, the author of the Improved Garrisons mod has taken matters into their hands, making each garrison a key, strategic point on the map. First, we see the new interface and a quick tutorial introduces us to the changes. We thus learn how to automatically recruit soldiers from nearby villages and then send them for training. Interesting is also the ability to create special troops to protect an area or friendly caravans.

There's also something for lovers of statistics. While you cannot monitor the situation on the pork market, you can inspect the amount of food stocks, income in gold and the general well-being of your fief. Project management in cities is also a useful function.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Download the Improved Garrisons modification.
  2. Unpack the downloaded archive to the Modules folder located in the game's main directory.
  3. Activate the mod in the launcher.

Captivity Events – unhappy life in captivity

At the beginning, it's worth noting that this mod is intended only for adult players.

The Captivity Events mod, as the name suggests, expands the captivity system. The changes apply to both winners and losers of this particular circumstance. That's not too controversial, but wait until you get acquainted with new activities. And these include sex working, among others. The mod also introduces a slavery system to Bannerlord that includes forced labor.

The authors, and there are many of them, put a lot of work into the preparation of animated scenes (optional Hot Butter add-on) and graphics. Again, many of these are not intended for immature players.

The mod includes tools that allow easy creation of your own events and images. Thanks to this, at least a few noteworthy packages have already been created, which can be optionally installed and which significantly expand the number of situations that may occur in the least expected moments.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Download the Captivity Events mod.
  2. Unpack the downloaded archive to the Modules folder located in the game's main directory.
  3. Activate the mod in the launcher.
