@maiyannah I got them all clad in milanese armor, great helms, plate mittens and plate/iron boots, with kite or heater shields and maces as well as the particular weapons that each is skilled at (bow, crossbow, throwing, spear, etc) so they're basically the warband equivalent to a WH40k terminator squad. Walk in with them into any battle and I'll get out of it with 0-2 losses and full prisoners. Granted I spent more on them than what I'd need to bribe 4 wars into peace, and sometimes I have to give one of them ~1700 coins when they start bickering among themselves, but that's half what I make with a batch of prisoners and they allow me to get 95% of my troops to max upgrade level and fill the garrisons. Next I'll test how well the AI does with cavalry combat against some looters (which can't even hurt them or me) to see if I can get them to charge as a line at my sides and if it works I'll get each a charger and a jousting lance.
