A new DLC for Mount and Blade: Warband has been released to mixed reception due to it being rather buggy, but it did come with Linux support as standard.

Reviews have been pretty bad, with many stating that its a blatant copy of the mod Brytenwalda which I cant confirm or deny. Many also state that performance is bad and it "wants you to check out your desktop every five minutes".

Nonetheless, it's exciting to see it with a on-launch Linux support! I also saw one review which said most of the performance issues could be fixed with an open-patch TaleWorlds released a few days after release. Check that out if you experience any problems!

Check out Mount & Blade: Warband - Viking Conquest on Steam.

About the game
From the creators of the popular "Brytenwalda" mod, "Viking Conquest" is a brand new DLC for Mount & Blade Warband! This single and multi player DLC brings Mount & Blade to historical Dark Age Britain, complemented by authentic scenes and cultures. The DLC features a story mode with a complex plot, where choices have real consequences, as well as a standard sandbox mode in an all new setting, with expanded options and controls. Online battling also takes on its own flavour, with special modes like Coastal Assault and Warlord. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

For me M&B crashes at random... I can play for hours before a crash or for mere minutes before a crash. Very random. Having said that M&B is a fantastic game and the crashes haven't really tainted my opinion of the game.

Its never crashed for me. Well, it did crash when I cranked up the battle size to 500 editing the config file. But hey, thats my fault :D It ran fine, until I came into a battle with 340 men involved. lol

I'm surprised to see that people had/have issues with that port. It was running great on my end since day one. (770, proprietary beta). Hope they gonna fix it soon for you guys.

Ps. I'm talking about base game here:)

The base game has also been very stable for me too. So I guess they are talking about the DLC. Anyway, M&B is great.
