  "account": "Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 follows a young protagonist, Henry, as he works to overthrow Sigismund of Luxembourg from his rule over Bohemia and liberate the city of Kuttenberg. Henry assembles an army of mercenaries, friends, and enemies to attack Kuttenberg, but the plan is to avoid a direct frontal assault. Instead, Henry aims to take the city within around 20 to 40 men. To accomplish this, Henry raises an army through a mod called Companion Squad, which allows him to command a warband. With this army, Henry seeks to call in favors from Henry's allies, including Hans Capon, Jan Zizka, Godwin, Erik, Istvan Toth, and Radzig and Hanush, all of whom are summoned to help in the assault.\n\nUpon entering the city, Henry's army faces resistance from guards, who initially underestimate the might of the approaching force. The guards engage the attackers, and the outnumbered guards quickly fall before Henry's squad, dubbed the \"murder clump.\" The murder clump exhibits ruthless behavior, attacking everyone in their path, including civilians, nobles, and peaceful merchants. This unexpected shift in tactics leads to unintended consequences, as the army accidentally turns into a bandit group, wreaking havoc in the city. Despite the disorder, the city falls to the attack within a short time, and Henry takes control of Kuttenberg. Though the strategy proved faster than the main story, it came at the cost of a damaged save, negatively affecting quest givers and earning Henry a criminal reputation across the region.",
