After the Battle of Bucharest I was in the talking stages of a LAN with Frank from Taleworlds this was before he left and it fell apart. But it's not impossible they were interested even back then doing something big like the Bucharest LAN.
If I remember correctly, a month ago a big Native Warband tournament organizer tried to contact Taleworlds to perhaps add a prize pool and advertise the tournament, but they simply ignored him, didn't even give him a response, they are more focused on bannerlord unfortunately.
