The misty hills of north-western Calradia are dominated by the Battanian clans, the original inhabitants of much of the continent.

'Such unruly cattle as my people require a strong herdsman's hand to steer them from the ravine and protect them from the wolf,' said one recent high king, just before he was betrayed by a jealous cousin and taken in chains to the nearest imperial outpost. Ask any Battanian chieftain, however, whose 'kingdom' he lives in, and he will look around at his hall and in his fields and his pastures, his flock and his retainers, and answer 'Mine, of course.'

Their troop style will most likely be similar to the Nords or be of a completely new style as they are not the ancestors of any faction in Warband.įrom time immemorial there has been a High King of Battania, crowned with great ceremony on the sacred hill of Dunthanach. Their position in comparison to Warband is in and around Reyvadin, Knudarr, and Radoghir Castles. The Battania is a faction in Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord that excels at exploiting their native woodlands in northwest Calradia to ambush their enemies with their specialized forest warfare and longbow men.
