Hey what's up you guys this is Spartan and welcome back to Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord's Life of a Spartan Episode 2!

For this campaign we will be playing as a Spartan King, named Leonidas, and we will be at war with every other faction including the God-King, King Xerxes and his army of 100,000 soldiers.

Leonidas will start off with a single Spartan castle with 300 Hoplites inside as well as a wife and 3 loyal Spartan companions. Xerxes will start off with almost every castle and city in Calradia under his control as well as an unlimited amount of wealth and soldiers to call upon.

All other factions will begin with 50% of their lords executed by Xerxes and a single city left standing. Leonidas will be able to make alliances and peace treaties with any other faction to help in the fight against Xerxes.

Hope you guys enjoy the series and thank you for the support!
