If you can catch the king, it will be faster. Once you've captured them toss them in a prison tower and look for the others. Save before fighting so you can reload if you don't capture them. If they're raiding a village, they won't run away until the village is raided, so if you can make it here fast enough, you can catch them and attack them. Garrison all your army aside from the companion with pathfinder and spotting (if you don't have those skills yourself) equip horses, empty your inventory and try to catch the lords. The posts alert you when enemies are nearby, so you'll be able to get a reading on where they are with these. Build messenger posts in every fief you can, and at least one prisoner tower.

Though they can sometimes disappear from the game, it's much more likely that they move so fast (like close to 10 speed) that you can't find them unless you get lucky and intercept them on accident. If you didn't do that, the lords will run around with 1 unit and be very fast once they have no land. It has taken up to a week or two for a faction to fall, but as long as you make sure the king doesn't escape from you, enough lords defecting to eliminate the kingdom will occur eventually. Once you have the king take the last fief and the remaining lords will defect over the period of a few days since they have no king. Capturing the lords just makes it faster, capturing the king is the only thing that's absolutely necessary though. In order to avoid this bug the best thing to do is capture as many lords from the faction before taking their last fief as you can, AND make sure you capture the king/sultan/whatever. Hopefully someone else has better luck with this and hopefully this isn't the reason less than 1% of people on Steam have these achievements.ДЇor anyone who runs into this problem, it doesn't seem to be related to Kingmaker, I had the same problem on a save where I didn't try for Kingmaker.

I'm not sure what causes this BUT, there is two constant people in the Kingdom of Nords and that's King Ragnar and Grevinne Isolla (formerly Lady Isolla of Suno who I helped claim her Swadian throne) so it's possible that going for the Kingmaker achievement on the same save file as any of the conquer all of Calderia achievements just doesn't work. So my 1000 day save file is pretty much useless now. So I'm stuck, I tried leaving the Sarranid and starting my own faction hoping I could get the nords to join me but I fucked up, most of my army had left due to low morale (apparently they don't like camping with no food for an entire year xD) and I immediately ran into the khan, with 500+ troops vs my starving low lvl army and lost, now I have no army or towns and recruiting villagers doesn't seem to work anymore, i'm basically a Nord except I show up on the map. I've waited probably close to an in-game year by now and nothing, searched the map from top to bottom 10+ times and the xbox version doesn't have mods.

I did a bit of googling and found that it's an issue on the steam version too and the only known fixes are to wait it out, find the nords on the map or install a mod. They're not at war and there is no way to contact them, they have nowhere on the map to go and I've gone around the entire map a good 10+ times and can't find any of them wandering about. So i've captured all towns castles and villages with the Sarranid Sultanate and all factions cease to exist except for the Kingdom of Nords, who constantly have 1-3 vassalages, and they leave regularly but new ones join.
