This time I tried playing a javelin-thrower. Javelins suck. The best thing I can say about them is that sometimes they can be useful. But compared to all the other weapons in the game, that's not high praise.
I'm playing as my own king this time. Conquering enemy cities has never been easier. I load up my 100+ guys, tell one of my better lords to follow me, and that's always enough to take over a city. The one thing that's annoying though is managing relations with my lords. If I give someone a village, that one lord's relation goes up 10, but everyone else's goes down by either 2 or 4. So if you have more than 4 lords in your kingdom, every fief you give away gives you a net relation loss. And sometimes my relation drops for no reason at all. The lord didn't get defeated in battle, he has fiefs to give him some income, I didn't declare war on anyone. Dude just decided he doesn't like me.
So I think I've tried everything in M&B:W now. Except I never got the hang of two-handed weapons. I always get torn apart by archers and I can never seem to block. So I always go sword and board. Is it worth trying to play with a two-handed weapon?
Any other new things I should try?
