what to do with prisoners mount and blade

Up until now you’ve been wandering Calradia as a vagabond, crossing swords with lowly poachers and other miscreants. Here are a couple of suggestions on what to do next. Once you’ve completed these objectives you should have a nice little warband and some coin in your purse. Hunting down looters and bandits is a quick way to grind out some renown. This value is a measure of your deeds throughout Calradia and can be earned through completing missions and winning battles.

To reach Clan Rank 1 requires 50 Renown.

Make sure you periodically improve their equipment and manage their skills. They cost several hundred Denars but will become very important later on, capable of carrying out tasks on your behalf.

Companions can be found in the tavern districts of larger cities.

Just make sure you have the coin to pay their daily wage while keeping a small stockpile of supplies.

As your character gains experience, your max party size will increase. Reaching 20 should take no time at all, especially if you are recruiting lowly grunts from nearby villages.

You can quickly earn Denars by completing missions (visit settlements, look for quest-givers with a blue exclamation mark) and selling any loot and prisoners you win from battle.

Again, you’re under no obligation to do these, though you’ll likely cross off these objectives naturally anyway: These goals include raising 1,000 Denars (Calradic currency), having a party size of 20 or more, recruiting at least one companion, and reaching Clan Rank 1. Conveniently enough, they’re all bundled into your first post-tutorial quest which can be viewed in your journal. Wherever you decide to go, there are a handful of initial milestones that will help you get a better foothold in the game. Or, if you’d like, you can wander Calradia, plying your trade as a mercenary or becoming a successful merchant.

Just because you hail from Aserai or Sturgia doesn’t mean you have to serve them you can win favour with any of the game’s six major factions regardless of your origin. From here you’re free to go wherever you choose, regardless of which culture your character is aligned to.
