Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Captain Thomas Dialogue Options

Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter Captain Thomas on your way to the castle. Your goal: convince him you carry a message for von Bergow. You'll be presented with these dialogue options:

Dialogue Option	Playstyle	Description
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.”	Soldier	A soldier prefers direct action, wielding weapons and armor. Known for a short temper.
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.”	Adviser	An adviser favors intellect, diplomacy, and persuasion.
“I’m the scout of our company.”	Scout	A scout excels at stealth and silent problem-solving.

Even if you deviate, Hans will intervene, ensuring the story progresses normally. That's how to convince Captain Thomas in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more game tips, check out The Escapist.
