Looks awesome. Propably buying it right away on the release. Creating an own kingdom sounds very interesting.
Edit: Do I need original version for Warband?

i think so, but don´t take my word for it.
Nope, the Warband Expansion will be stand alone. I believe Armagan said that in an interview somewhere, but I have heard it from multiple sources since.Originally Posted by Auray
Ah, ok. Will it mean that they are going to concentrate on warband for now on and leave the original game aside?

Yes. Once they are done with this, they may begin work on Mount&Blade Two, who knows? Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing them do the same type of game only for Roman times, or perhaps make a 1700's FPS or something of the sort.
they are alredy working on something called "Fire and Mount" or something similar
No, that's third party developed, I believe. Ogniem something something?
Well, that's a pity. I just bought the original and I was about to cancel it but I did not make it. I would have bought the warband rather. On the other hand it's good they have a new project going on. I like the M&B's concept very much.

Well, you can use your m&b serial key to play the warband multiplayer beta if you like. So it's not a complete waste. Download here:

Besides there are a bunch of great mods for m&b 1.011 that offer just as much fun gameplay as Warband.
It's a big overhaul so it'll be a while before we see the first major mods for Warband.
Resolution Magazine
“There’s no denying the appeal of large-scale medieval combat with friends, either. In that sense, Warband already stands in a field of its own…”
Gamers Daily News
“Mount & Blade Warband, the (and I do not exaggerate) most highly anticipated game according to GDN readers (from the 50,000+ reads on the first interview with TaleWorlds about it) is ready to crest the horizon and bring multiplayer mayhem to the masses.”
“I must say, the game is addictive. The different modes include deathmatch, capture the flag and defend territories.”
Role Playing Video Games Suite 101
"At its current state, Warband seems like a solid position for the games fans, the multiplayer feature promises to bring new fans to the franchise. This indie gem certainly deserves all the attention it can get."
Preview Electronic Theatre
"...with the original Mount & Blade still providing many gamers with an entertaining single-player experience, Mount & Blade: Warband’s multiplayer mode is currently looking like a perfectly enjoyable accompaniment."
I've recently had the opportunity to review Warband: http://www.game-debate.com/articles/...433&game=Mount and Blade: Warband and have enjoyed it immensely.
Single player is a fresh-feeling evolution of M&B with added features such as a new map, a new faction, morale, and marriage.
Multiplayer is evenly balanced gamewise and alot of fun. Combat techniques will take alot of work and polishing tho' (some people have already become very proficient via Beta, and are very hard to beat!) The usual frustration of multiplayer combat games: lack of player discipline, total lack of basic tactics etc is compounded by no in-game VOIP. Great place for a brawl though...
Just so everything is kept in its proper place, here's the links for our coverage:

LIVE Interview (13/4/10)
Review will also be coming tommorow as well. Will post that up when it's live.
I really liked that interview. However, where the heck did that picture of Cem come from?
Didn't post it here yet but here's my review of M&B Warband.

LIVE Interview was a succesThanks to everyone who came and watched.
Here's our Review.

I enjoyed your review Singleton Mosby. I changed my couching key from "X" to middle mouse button in "Controls" as I was having the same issues you described.

Man´s unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes in the slimmest of doubts. God has not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist.
