I agree as well, however what I would have liked to see is the ability to be
a true mercenary. They were an important part of medieval warfare, and quite
frequently one would find younger sons of the nobility leading those
companies while seeking honour and land of their own.

Not owing your allegiance to a lord shouldn't be quite impossible, but if
some system were introduced for mercenaries you would have freedom, but also
quite a problem when all the wars dry up. Not to mention that you might tend
to be quite unpopular if your troops did as mercenaries often did, went on a
looting frenzy often leaving behind what was bolted to the floor and
wouldn't burn.
