While brute force works for many Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 quests, diplomacy is sometimes key. Here's how to smoothly navigate the encounter with Captain Thomas early in the game.

Early on, Henry and his companions encounter Captain Thomas en route to the castle. Your task: convince Thomas you carry a message for von Bergow.
The initial dialogue offers three choices:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A combat-focused approach. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | A diplomatic approach, favoring persuasion and charisma. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A stealth-oriented approach. |
While the initial choice affects starting stats (Soldier, Adviser, Scout), it doesn't significantly impact this specific encounter. However, choosing "Adviser" is beneficial for many later quests requiring persuasion and charisma. This boosts your Persuasion and Charisma stats, making future interactions easier.
Following the initial selection, maintain consistency in your responses. If you chose "Adviser," stick to that role. Even minor inconsistencies are easily rectified by Hans, ensuring the story progresses normally.
