Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Captain Thomas

Early on, Henry and his companions will encounter Captain Thomas on their way to the castle. The goal is to convince Thomas you carry a message for von Bergow. You'll have these dialogue options:

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, utilizing knowledge and persuasion.
“I’m the scout of our company.”	Scout	A stealth-oriented approach.

While the initial choice influences starting stats (Soldier, Adviser, or Scout), it's ultimately not critical to this specific encounter. However, choosing "Adviser" is beneficial as it boosts Persuasion and Charisma, useful skills throughout the game.

Following your initial introduction, further dialogue with Captain Thomas will ensue. Consistency is key; stick to the persona you initially chose (e.g., if you're the adviser, maintain that role). This will ensure a successful interaction.

Even if you contradict yourself, Hans will often intervene, resolving the situation and allowing the story to progress naturally.

That's how to convince Captain Thomas in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Check out The Escapist for more game guides and tips.
