1. Take part in and win battles
The first and most straightforward method to earn renown is by winning battles. Remember that most battles do not get you a large amount of renown, as increasing your tier to level 4 requires 900 renown, and a battle with 30 troop bandit group gets you 1 renown.
You need to take on more fierce armies to earn a heavy amount of renown to help you. Battle with larger armies, with veteran generals earn a large amount of renown. But it is a double-edged sword, as you need to win the battles to get the renown.
2. Conquer Towns and Villages
The second method to earn renown is to attack and conquer towns and villages. Here, too, the amount of renown earned depends on the difficulty of the attack. Although villages and smaller towns are easier to conquer, gaining control of castles and large cities earns more renown.
This also has its consequences, as attacks on too many settlements will disrupt your relations with that faction. So, this does impact your diplomatic relations.
