Is there any way to manually release captured prisoners at your own will? (let them go free)
My specific situation is this:
I have captured lords of a given faction, and that faction has since been defeated. I suspect that I will not receive a ransom for these captured lords anymore, and wish to let them go to free. This will free up a few prisoner slots.
- I know that one option is to just let them escape on their own while I hold them in captivity with my army or in a town.
- A second option being to put them in one of my town prisons, freeing up my prisoner slots.
- A third option that does not apply to lords is to sell prisoners to a Ransom Broker.
- A fourth option that does not apply to lords is to release prisoners after winning a battle.
I want to let them go free. Is it possible?
I defeated Kingdom of Vaegirs.
I held some of their lords prisoner before they were defeated. I wish to let them go free. However, I see no way of doing this.
These are the only remaining lords for this faction because I still have them!
Thanks for reading.

If you own any castles or towns I think you can put all your items in a chest in the lord's hall and all our troops in the garrison. Go unarmed with no troops with only the lords of the dead faction with you. Then you get in a battle and let yourself get defeated. Since all your items are in a chest and all your troops are in a garrison, all you should lose is your prisoners (the lords you want to set free).
