This creates opportunities for dramatic upheavals in the political landscape, as characters meet their untimely end and nations devolve into chaos. When enabled, named NPCs (called heroes) can now die, including kings, emperors, and, yes, even you. I strongly encourage everyone to play with Enable Death on, as it adds an excellent level of realism to Bannerlord. But if you want a more authentic experience, keep it at realistic. Like recruitment, lowering this option is great for those who want to focus on fighting and less on management. This option adjusts how much each of those affects your speed.

See, your speed is determined by a variety of factors like the quality and number of your horses, how full your inventory is, and even the morale of your troops. Like Recruitment Difficulty, Map Movement Speed subtly changes how quickly you can move around on the overworld map. (Image credit: TaleWorlds) Map Movement Speed

But if you want a more authentic experience, keep this at realistic. That way you can enlist troops more quickly and spend time fighting. If you want to spend less time kissing ass and more time kicking ass, I'd recommend setting this to easy.

This option won't affect your campaign as dramatically as the first three, but it is important. That's where this option comes in as it determines how much characters have to like you before they'll let you recruit their best soldiers to your cause. In order to recruit more troops from settlements you visit, you have to win the favor of notable NPCs who live there. It gives me a bit of an edge in one on one combat, but I still have to command my troops effectively to win large-scale battles. I prefer to set this to easy, personally. And god help you if you get outnumbered.ДЇor new players, there's no shame in setting this to very easy until you come to grips with combat. Only veterans should set this option to realistic, as it requires impeccable timing to beat most AI opponents. Setting this to realistic requires you to be adept at Bannerlord's nuanced combat in order to survive, as even the weakest bandit will be able to kill you in just a few hits. This option controls how much damage your character takes and will be the most noticeable difficulty option you can tinker with. And since you don't have command over these units anyway, you don't have to worry about micromanaging them to keep them alive. Again, I'd recommend setting this option to realistic regardless of your experience with Bannerlord as this means allied soldiers and enemies they fight will be on relatively even ground. To be clear, these are not the troops under your control, but any additional computer-controlled soldiers who might join you in battle. This option controls how much damage your allies take in combat. (Image credit: TaleWorlds) Friendly Parties Received Damage

On Realistic, you'll need to give orders to your different units so they're always in an advantageous position, whereas on lower difficulties you can just order them to charge and mostly forget about them. This option does require you to understand Bannerlord's complicated unit command system, though. This means that your own troops and enemy troops will be on even footing when fighting, which shouldn't be a problem if you're smart and always try to have the bigger army or better equipped soldiers. For that reason, I'd recommend setting this to realistic regardless of whether you're a new player or a veteran. This setting determines how much damage your friendly units take in combat but excludes your own character.
