Sweet Realistic Medieval Combat (Mount and Blade)

How does one increase right to rule? Right now Im at 12, but I need to get it higher. I already sent out two companions, and Im going to send out more. I have 4 castles and a wife. What more can I do?

To put what they said in plainer english, slaughter everything that moves, including peasants. Focus on one faction and beat the living out of them. When they come crawling to you for peace, accept and you will gain a lot of RTR.

Convincing lords to join you also raises your RTR.

Ok so now my RTR is 15. I just sent out another companion, so it should go up again soon. Time to start scheming.
Ive also began to compile a list of lords who dont like their kings.
But when I go up to them to ask them about their king and then say that "I have something to tell them" nothing happens, as in I dont tell them that I plan to rule.

You need a kingdom before you can ask for their support...
That is you need to rebel first, before you can gather them.
This game sadly does not have any underhand methods of doing things...no assassinations, no spies, no killing prisoners...the only gripe I ever had with M&B series.

[Hooahguy]

So if I go to my king and say "I wish to be released of my oath to you" do I lose all my castles and towns?

[Centurion1]

yes.

[Hooahguy]

That sucks. Is there a way to rebel and not lose all your land?

[Centurion1]

try tp take a settlement ask for it and have it revoked guves you an option to splinter
