A number of quests in Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord are currently bugged. Among them are the army of poachers and herd delivery request. Some of the bugs are mere annoyances, others are decidedly gamebreaking. If you’re having trouble on account of any of these tasks, this guide will tell you all about the M&B2 Bannerlord army of poachers & cattle quest bugs, how to avoid them when possible.
Never played a Mount and Blade game, but started this one up (with Floris mod) over the weekend. Honestly seems like a perfect game for me, but at the start there's just a bit too much to do and no direction to get you started (beyond a small bandit hunting series). 9 out of 10 villages give me those cattle quests. This is NOT the cattle quest blocking the other quests, instead the other quests are waiting for the refresh timer to expire, and since you've not done the cattle quest it is the only one available. Were the cattle quest not there, they would just say they don't need help. I recently got Mount and Blade: Warband after playing the demo for quite some time and I really loved the demo. I love the mix of action-RPG and strategy/conquest game in Mount and Blade and the large battles can be pretty fun. However, something I could not anticipate from the demo is now plaguing me. This is where it seems to bug, When I select the option to claim for myself it gives the expected readout in the bottom left such as 'you lost 10000 stags, slavers used this be prepared for a battle, the castle has been rebuilt, quest complete: old valyria'. While it reads this out the ruins disappear and 12 or so hours go by in speed mode. You'd think a village with ten cattle would breed more, and a village that you've brought 5 wheat to similarly would grow more, but it all seems to disappear into an endless void. I bring the stuff and a week after it's simply gone, bandits have stolen the cattle (though I've kept them rather well away) or it's been a.
Poachers quest bug
The most common bug with the army of poachers quest is one where the game crashes when the time runs out. It is often couled with another bug, in which you get either zero or minus one days to comlete the quest. When they appear together, these bugs will cause the game to crash as soon as you accept the quest. The only way to avoid this is to not take the quest. Just ignore it whenever it comes up.

Some people have also mentioned the poachers staying on the world mape even after they’ve been defeated, but that’s a much milder issue than the one above, which also has the nasty habit of corrupting the save file. So just avoid the army of poachers quest like the plague.
Herd delivery quest bug

The cattle quests are also ripe with issues, but the most common one is the cattle not appearing. As soon as you accept the quest, the herd should appear in your inventory. If you’re having trouble finding them, go to a trading menu and you should see them listed as sellable. If not, you’ve been visited by the cattle disappearing bug. There’s nothing you can do about it, as far as we know, and you’ll just have to fail the quest and live with it.
