I've got all of the best armor, and the best bow and sword possible. I have so much gold, I don't really care about it anymore.
They are my henchmen, and they each have much bigger armies than mine. Even my own vassals hate my guts, except for the three lords that I gave a lot of land too. My character is basically a supervillain with expert archery skills.
My 'honor' in the game is nearing the max negative. I've got plenty of prisoners elsewhere too. I've got a massive prison complex in Dhirim, where I now have three Kings imprisoned and a ton of other lords, and over 600 enemy troops. I've been at war with everyone but the Vaegirs for a long time. I ended up as part of the Nord kingdom for a long time, but eventually I went independent, with 4 towns that were all mine. Isolla isn't even in the game anymore, because I told her I wouldn't support her goal anymore. I have become ruler of my own faction, called the Swadian Rebels because I once supported Lady Isolla's claim on the crown of Swadian. I've been playing the same savefile in Mount and Blade Warband for over a year.
