Encumbrance Mount And Blade
For Mount & Blade on the PC, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Newbie questions'. Encumbrance doesn't affect riding as much as it does on foot. The Berserker wears light/medium armor and has a 4th weapon slot empty to reduce encumbrance. High health is going to be essential if you don't want to die in the midst of battle, so Primary Skills focus on getting the Berserker to the battle quickly, keeping him in 'till the end, and maximizing damage. Berserkers do very well on terrain where.
Originally posted by:OK, I guess it is time for me to run my tests again. I'll post about it when I have something.-Just started, and the results are already really, really strange. I'm rechecking my methods.-Well, the results are in, and they make no sense (Mod: Gekokujo)player, 14 companions, 14 on courser analogs, one on a saddle horse analog- 24 items, 6 pack horses: 12.3- 24 items, 4 or 5 pack horses: 12.4- 24 items, 2 or 3 pack horses: 12.5- 24 items, 1 or no pack horses: 12.6- 30 items, no pack horses: 12.7- empty inventory:12.7dismounted player (athletics 9):12.81 dismounted companion (athl.5):12.51 dismounted companion (athl.0): 12.12 dism. 0 and 5)12.0everyone walks, horses in inventory:10.5everyone walks, horses in a chest:11.130 trade goods in inventory, no horses: 7.717 trade goods in inventory, 13 horses 9.917 trade goods in inventory, no horses 8.8Everyone but one on a courser: 12.7Everyone on sumpter or lame (or both) horses: 12.7-The way I read this:Equipment (weapons, ammo, armor) does not slow you down.Trade goods slow you down. Horses somewhat counteracts that.If there is nothing to counteract, herding the horses is a net negative.Dismounted characters slow you down unless they are REALLY good at walking.The quality of the mount does not affect overland speed.Just going to leave this here so people won't need to look for it. So apperantly horses slow you down even more?
Extra horses, which you have to lead as you ride, slow you down, unless you are carrying trade goods, then the extra horses speed you up.Makes perfect sense, actually. When you are traveling on a horse, you do not gallop whatever Hollywood tells you.

You actually go at a normal pace, and changing horses does not help. So extra horses are a minor slow down, because you have to lead them, prod them along when they find something tasty, etc.When you have trade goods and no extra horses, you are overburdening the horse you ride, so that slows you down.But if you have trade goods AND extra horses, you use these as pack animals, so your speed is better than when you have no extra horses. Originally posted by:So what qualifies as trade goods?Spice, ivory, iron, velvet.
It's very mod dependent. Does food?In most mods, no.
Mount And Blade Mods
There are a few mods that have made some foods trade goods, and I think it was a bad move. Does looted weapons and armor? Not in any mod I've played.-It may be something as simple as weight.
I have never cared enough to really look into it. I seldom trade nowadays, because I have played Mount and Blade so long that I can make money through combat even with a level 1 character. When I move trade goods for a quest or to make an enterprise of mine more profitable, the quantities are small enough that my two remounts are enough to handle them.And everyone leads remounts, right? For when your horse gets lamed.-You know, it is probably not just weight, because trade good's pricing is very different from loot pricing. Loot has a way worse buy/sell price ratio than trade goods. I think it is a bad move to have food slow the party down. Yes, by making food trade goods, horses can mitigate the slowdown from with carrying food, but that slowdown should not have been there in the first place.In the time period we are looking at, the food would have been carried by the troops themselves, not on the commanders' pack animals.
I'm OK with it being my responsibility to organize and pay for the victuals, although in that period, most armies were relying on raiding or 'requisitions'. But every soldier would have kept a few days of supplies in a pack he would have dropped before battle, and retrieved afterwards. It's bad enough that I am carrying fresh vegetables, unsalted/unsmoked meat and grapes. But that they are eating into my storage capacity is kind of silly.

In our story line playthrough, we have a army of nearly 600. We carry two each of about 10 kinds of food. This is three or four days of rations for the army - trivial for the men to carry, and total nonsense for the commander's remounts.

Yeah but for that to work you would need to stop at a city or something every day so they can refill their food stocks. It would make things annoying if you want to stay at enemy territory for long times.
