The Bannerlord Native League[forums.taleworlds.com] team is organizing the fifth iteration!

For those unfamiliar with BNL, it is a community skirmish tournament where teams are split into divisions - with multiple teams in each division. Usually, one match is played per week against the other teams. This leads to some epic competitive fights with teams on similar footing, with more skilled players in higher divisions!

This iteration of the tournament also comes with a heavy Loot prize up for grabs.

The first matches will be organized from Monday, September 23. onward


The Calradic Campaign team is organizing the fourthy-third event in their Bannerlord series - “Revenge for Rotash”. Join up for some hack & slash today at 20:00 UTC on their Calradic_Campaign server using their Module.

If you would like a quick overview of the CC events, check out this video - What is the Calradic Campaign?

You can check all the details, including how to join, on their Reddit page.

Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Before we dive into this edition of #CommunityTales, we would like to invite you to the next official Multiplayer event, where two of our passionate content creators will be leading the charge.

Hope to see you there!


Come join us next Saturday for the ninth official large-scale Battle & Siege event with up to 600 players on the same server.

This time, we have something special in store! Two renowned content creators in the Bannerlord community, Captain Fracas (Twitch[www.twitch.tv] / YouTube) and Jackie Fish (YouTube / Twitch[www.twitch.tv]), will lead their factions in an epic showdown.
For Battles, we will be using maps initially made for Captain mode. In the last Battle mode map, we will have a special rule “Protect the King” - if either Captain Fracas or Jackie Fish falls in battle first, their faction instantly loses. Players are encouraged to form protective formations around their leaders and follow strategic plans laid out by Captain Fracas and Jackie Fish.

Playing in the event will also grant you three times the Loot & Exp that you would normally get.

• Date & Time: Saturday, 31st of August, 18:00 UTC
  
• Server Name: [EVENT] Calradic War #9 - Captain Fracas vs Jackie Fish
  
• Game Mode: Battle & Siege

Now Let’s check out some of the most recent creations from our community.

Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Before we dive into this month's #CommunityTales, let us briefly touch on the future of Bannerlord! During our release, we shared our intent to continue supporting the title with content updates - which has led to new features such as Fog of War, Retirement, Player-owned Alleys, World Map & Mission Weather, Formation Targeting, Warehouses, and Multiplayer Taunts among others. We want to reassure you that we're still on this path and working towards future updates. We share your enthusiasm for what lies ahead and although it will take a while longer to finalize the new additions, be confident that they are coming.

In the meantime, we encourage you to continue sharing your feedback and ideas with us. Your input plays a crucial role in shaping the future of Bannerlord, and we value your ongoing support.

We would also like to invite you to the next official Multiplayer event. Hope to see you there!
