Fireborn being the last tier of Red Priest unit are found in Essos, usually you can't recruit them so you'll have to either: chase bandits in Essos who might have some as prisoners, or attack their parties in mainland Essos and sometimes also sailing the coastline. Attacking them will cause your relationship with R'hllor followers bad, and if you plan on becoming monarch it's unwise to provoke the faiths.

Red Cloaks are strong, as are the Vale Knights, but they're not necessarily the best options unless you can employ large numbers of cavalry permanently. The reason for that line of thinking is that they're wages are really high, and also because against other cavalry having cavalry units that employ polearms is a deciding factor since a well put couched lance is an insta death strike.

Indo95, to me they're great, the Tiger Cloaks, their defense is indeed a bit low, but they're cheap on the wages and are very good at killing. You should employ a good shieldwall formation of infantry or spearmen (better if it's heavy) so they're not vulnerable to pincer attacks.

Can you explain the consequences of provoking faiths as a monarch???

How do you build trees??

Weirwood trees are religious bulidings that you can build in villages/castle/towns that you own.

Manage this town> religious building relative to your religion?
Well, I havent played with Old Goods religions far yet

...

That's a lot of info! I've added it to the wiki if you don't mind.

I didn't realize people like Jon Snow can be recruited as companion. But then I guess that also means every follower lords are recruitable companions. You could have an army of just companions at that rate!

I read somewhere on this forum, that in 3.0 U can recruit only King's guards, but don't know is it legit.

Legit. Lord Commander Jaime Lannister now rides with me.

How???
Tell me and I will hail you till the last day of my life!!!

I think you need to conquer King's Landing and get the message that shows you as lord of the seven kingdoms, then the kingsguard join you, and if they're imprisoned somewhere (happens a lot since Joffrey is a noob) you may need to ransom or liberate them.

I did, But all the hounds/companions of other lords including Kingguards say " Leave me, I am licking my own cock" Whether you defeat them in batttle or liberate them by capturing fief, You cant rescue them from prison as you would rescue a lord. And How to Ransom these fuckers?

Well, mine still counts that there are 0 converted people even with religious buildings (in my case trees) being in every fief I could build them.

How do you build trees??

I just recently found about this mod so I've been messing around for a couple of hours until 2.0 is released.
anyway im day 2 or 3 in this save, I travel to the wall, decided to take a walk in it ("the town" so to speak). And there I see... myself. standing there.
He has my name and my weapon, no armour and a weird helmet I do not own. But I can engage in a dialog with him, so I do.
Then I have a bunch of options. Sending gifts, Hiring spys, Collection report and information about lords etc... Didnt have money for any of those.
One of the options was accessing my inventory, So I do and there is a single sword in there named Ice, Valyrian steel. It is mine for some reason, given to me by me.. lol.

But it gets weirder.

After exploring all the options, I decide to dismiss myself. I confirm I no longer need my services and the dialog closes.
I engage in a dialog once again, and have the same options as before. I dismiss myself again, dialog closes.
The I do this for a third time, but this time I have different options. I Have an option to resign the marshalship,, No longer serv as a vassal, Pledge my sword as a vassal, ask question about the war... He (me) basically turned into my king.
One more option was to serv as a soldier in his (my) party. I tought to myself "I wonder how this one will turn out". Not sure what I was expecting, but as soon as I click the "Seems a fair lot and steady work in these lands. I'm with you, my lord.", the game freezes and I can only close it with task manager.
I don't know if this is a knows issue or not, but it is by far the weirdest bug I've even seen in any mod   

Noooo, I remember I encountered same thing in Sword of damocles warlords, But there wanst an option of enlisting in army and pledging as vassal, other options you mentioned were there

You can't because it's part of the inherant mechanics of Mount & Blade itself that all lords are males, so Danay is the mod is simply a male character with a female skin. It should be possible to alter this in theory, but I reckon it must be extremely complicated since Produno never bothered changing that. All ladies you see in the mod that command armies are the same, the game treats them as males but they look like females, you even get in game reports saying that X lady is chasing Y lady with marriage proposals. You can probably marry Dany if you pick a female character ironically and even get her pregnant.

I usually Play as female and my current character is female too!! But I dont think you can marry any faction ruler in any way!

[Tip:]

Imo, after inspecting the troop tree in the camp menu, and some no-faction units you have to discover through exploring the mod, I came to this conclusion:

Infantry: Unsullied (double as spearmen), Stormlands House Guard (equipped with maces for shield penetration), Northern House Guards (same as Stormlands but with axes), Sworn Sword (greatswords, no shield)

Spearmen: Northern Spearmen, Unsullied

Crossbowmen: Westerlands Arbalester (crossbow, sword and shield)

Archers: Night's Watch Veteran Elite Ranger (longbows and greatswords), Tiger Cloak Elite Archer (longbows and swords, cheaper than Night's Watch top ranger unit)

Skirmisher: Ironborn Finger Dancer (axes, shields and throwing axes)

Horse Archers: Fireborn (best archery proficiency, evolve from Red Priests), Sand Cavalry (bows, scimitar and shield), Dothraki Horselord (bows and arakh)

Cavalry: Vale Knight of the Gate (shield and greatsword, overal strongest cavalry), Mercenary Heavy Cavalry (sword, shield and lance, great vs any ground and other cavalry)

These are my favourites so far, I'm sure there are other great units, the Targaryens seem to have a pretty good cavalry too, you can use Dragon Knights instead of Vale KotG, and the units before Dragon Knight, the Crownlands Lancer instead of Mercenary Heavy Cavalry.

Fireborn? where you find them?
Stormland and Red Cloak knights are also great along with reach knights.
Reach cavalry is cheapest as far as i remember. You can have mounted sergents with upgrade cost of 256s, which is pretty reasonable for medium cavalray.
Tip: Do not sell knights of Westerland,Reach,Vale,Stormland etc.. Recruit them and its worth losing 9 or 12 morale then horrible upgrade cost all the way to top tier and the time required.

I dont think that the dire wolf is a great benefit. He has the speed of a lame horse and gets taken down very easy...

Its still something only they can get and then change cultures to get whatever troops they want, giving them an advantage, however minor, over other races. I just figure if some races get some bonus thing, the others should as well. Games singleplayer, so its not like it harms balance, mostly just seems strange to give two races racial bonus companion(s), one immunity to morale penalty over the sea, and  the rest, far as i can tell, nothing. Just my two cents on the matter.

I agree to am extent, that everyone should have something. But!

Free Folk & North have the weakest troop trees overall (in my opinion) and so rely on companions a lot more than other cultures. (Except Essos, I still think this troop tree needs a serious boost or changing to Volantis culture instead.)

Try northen spearmen against cavalray, Put them in Ranks, Shield wall or wedge formation sand watch the cavalry being torn!

Send to the Wall/execute Randyll Tarly.

There is no option to send to wall in V3.0!!!

sure, thoros has a flaming sword you can take from him. theres also fire arrows with the nights watch, as well as wildfire pots you can get when you capture kings landing

FYI, Thoros' flaming sword is still named Longsword and the fire arrows' burning effect is only visible in sieges, press "T" if I am not wrong.

Wildfire potions are AOE effect and is green, yummy~

Wild Fire, Nice option for white walkers, eh?
Anyway I haven't spotted a 2nd Walker party, I just engaged with 1st ever party and clicked on "leave", Didn't fight them, Ever since, I haven't found another walker party?

So far I have found:

Edric Dayne - Dawn
Lord Redwyn - Redwyn
Randall Tarly - Heartsbane
Dany Targ - Blackfyre
Jon Snow - Longclaw
Stannis Baratheon - Lightbringer
Winterfell - Ice (Must be lord of winterfell in own faction Ice will be in a chest under weirwood tree)

I'm going to keep looking for the rest keep you updated.

Can you please tell where to find all these and how to find them?
