Extracted it to my Warband folder but I still get this error:

Running Mount & Blade: Warband
./mb_warband_linux: error while loading shared libraries: libidn.so.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa 64 bit

That's strange, this library comes installed by default in Mint and if you try to remove the package it will also affect a lot more packages. The shared object file should be located in "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu".

Nope, this library is not there. Is it possible that Mint has replaced this package with some new version?

That could be it OR/AND the libraries provided with my package are not compatible with an updated version of that particular library.

Safest thing to do is to go to the game's page: https://www.gog.com/game/mount_blade_warband and install all the packages listed in the system requirements area. Installing them from the package manager you're almost sure it will work.

Thanks for that but I see the game needs some obsolete 32bit packages. I already tried installing them since they were needed for Crimsonland and result was totally broken os and consequently reinstall of the system. I guess I will have to go back to windows to play it.

32-bit SDL? It may be better to use aptitude in interactive mode when trying to add it.

I have been trying to get Warband to run on Linux Mint 18 64bit (Mate).

Either the start.sh or warband.sh scripts lead to complaints about missing libraries - it seems to be missing pretty much _every_ library. I looked for the ones it complained about and found all of them in shared Steam directories. So for a test, I copied all of them over to the Warband /game directory. The game would start this way, but the menu fonts were all garbled.

Something is in serious need of updating here, and I have a feeling that the library collection you provided won't be enough to fix this for the version I tested with. I opened a support ticket about the issue.

I've created a patch for Mint 18 which can be found at the Following Link. (See my updated Main Post for details.)

I suggest you delete the game and reinstall it before applying this patch.

Sorry for this. Nothing personal but I've taken down all my Linux patches.
