It's great fun to play Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord casually, but if you really want to experience the full range of what the game has to offer, then you should start your own Mount and Blade 2 kingdom.
However, be prepared to spend many hours preparing all the necessary parts. Follow the steps below to become your own king.
How to start your own kingdom
1. Talk to Nobles
The first and most important task you need to complete is the main scenario quest "The Madness of Neretzes". This quest requires you to locate and speak to at least 10 Nobles.
There are obviously many more nobles in the game, and some of them will be your enemies by the time you complete this quest. But if you can find 10 noble friends, you will take your first step towards forming your own kingdom.
Here is the list of the best Nobles you can talk to during the Neretzes Madness quest, with their respective locations:
When you are done talking to all 10 nobles, you can move on to the second stage of forming your own kingdom in Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord.
2. Assemble the Dragon Banner
"Assemble the Dragon Banner" is another quest that will appear in your quest log right after completing Neretzes Madness.
During this step, you need to talk to Istiana and Arzagos. Istiana can be found in Epicrotea, and Arzagos can be found in Marunath.
Each will give you the location of a hiding place. Go to the markers on the map and win the battles there. After earning both, you will receive the Dragon Banner Coins, which can now be used to form your own kingdom.
Now, if you want to create a non-imperial kingdom, which is completely independent from other factions, go back to the Azragos. If you want to create an Imperial Kingdom and support an existing faction, return to Istiana.
Either way, tell them you want to create your own kingdom by following these dialogue choices:
When this stage is completed, you will have a new quest in your journal of your choice, which will finally allow you to create your own kingdom.
3. Start your own kingdom
This new quest will take you to the final stage of forming the kingdom. Here you need to perform the following actions:
Once all four conditions are met, a new kingdom tab will appear in your game menu. Now you can either start diplomatic relations with other kingdoms or conquer their lands by waging wars.
