Mount & Blade II is frustrating for me. I’m just not good enough at the combat to play on the front lines and I’m a shit commander trying to organize my troops in battle.
Basically i just play the exploration and management side and auto-resolve the combats :/
I never tried it with a controller it seems like that would make it harder to manage your army. As for the bigger fights I usually try to get my army positioned first with my archers on a hill or across a river or something from them and then put my infantry in front of the archers to block them. Then I lead my Calvary to go provoke the enemy to come at them. Usually that works pretty well or at least lets me put a big dent in their calvary which gives you a decent advantage when they don’t have one because you can get behind them and wreck their archers.
This strategy works most of the time with minimal casualties

Doing the tournaments is a good way to practice combat.
Actually I’m half decent at one on one and the small melees. But once it’s a ‘real’ fight I get so sweaty palmed lol
Maybe I should try a console controller instead of mouse & kb?
