Gonkish posted:Is there a mod to make the loving Chaos minor factions actually stay loving dead? It's been a while since I played in Lustria but last time, at least, I had a loving mod that would force the Puppets of Chaos to, you know, DIE WHEN I WIPED THEM OUT. The beta patch messed up things triggering correctly after manually fought battles so I imagine that the trigger to stop chaos from spawning after all the stacks have been taken out isn't firing.

It's infuriating. They don't ever stop. It's like playing Imrik all over again: same stacks, same fight, every turn, over and over until you just want to shoot yourself in the head. Blah.

Nakai's ME campaign is so chill. I spent 50 turns stomping dinos through the northern wastes. Norsca doesn't have many ranged units and I don't either. I'd set my battle line and walk forward. I generally like range-heavy armies but this has been a really fun change. My only ranged attacks are magic. Then I moved south because the VC owned territory all the way up to Ostermark. They're pushed back to Drakenhof now. I'm not sure what to do next. The human factions love me. Grimgor has 40+ cities and Chaos is showing up. Or I could take a road trip to fight some Elves...

I havent played TK so i dont know if its my cup of tea but if not for the Wood Elves having an incredibly fun army I'd say wood elves. You just chill in the woods for 120 turns or so then kill some beastmen

So which rebellions try to raze the settlement vs occupy? Is it mainly just skaven and chaos rebellions raze? Also why do they randomly disappear?

I thought Khatep was an uneventful cakewalk to be honest. Arkan's was the worst in my opinion. His gimmick is undead units, that get no tech or red line support and don't really flesh out the already concise tomb kings army. Then there's his start. Even though his early game slog period is relatively short (if it isn't, you've already lost), 20 turns of fighting nothing but britonia feels like 100.

Arkhan gets a skill that globally buffs his vampire counts units for all armies, which is just as good as a red line skill

Chaos and Beastmen are the worst You just aimlessly raze settlements and watch as other factions repopulate your beautifully destroyed areas of the map foreverially

Ghouls are 500% better than the base TK skellingtons, esp. against Bretonnia (pair up one ghoul with one spear to royally muck up any cav they bring). Bats are OK to deal with archers and pursue stuff which TKs have trouble with early on (chariots aren't good pursuers, skelly cav is crap *besides* pursuing). Crypt horrors are pretty ghetto compared to Ushabti admittedly, but they fear stuff and the nice thing is their recruitment building gives stuff beyond 1 (one) unit of Ushabti so you can have a bunch of them in every army, instead of one doomstack full of Ushies and the rest bad skellingtons.

I've been playing through the WE ME campaign and I feel that it's close to being good, but the amber mechanic is just... ugh. I get that the campaign can't be 'sit in your forest doing nothing for 100 turns and win' but having to take over half of the world seems a bit extreme as well. I think there should be some way to 'purchase' amber at a slower rate or something (sort of like TK and additional armies), possibly with some diplomatic penalties or more events that make you have to defend. I'm not exactly sure, but something needs tweaking.

My only hope is that the evil hats are properly hatty. I require hats that are at least 1.5 chorfs tall. For maximum evil hat.

Not sure, but I feel like this is happening in my campaign too. I'm far away as Imrik, so the armies haven't been a huge problem yet, but the chaos corruption is getting annoying. Is there any way to fix it or is that just how this campaign will be forever?

as Arkhan I like 2 ghouls and 2 hounds, the hounds can basically completely destroy any routing peasants (combine a rear charge with doom n darkness) or just send them out to eat archers. don't let them fight cav. use your first $5000 and a rite on getting the ark of souls. fun times.

Join the order tide and just be a horde with a (very rich) home base, letting them colonize behind you.

I was deleting some old saves the other day and found my Khatep ME game where I conquered the entire map. I don't even remember doing it.

I'm not exactly sure, but something needs tweaking. Amber definitely needs a tune up. My personal belief is that the currency should be re-tuned to be more like Canoptic Jars like you said, with Amber turned into something generated by your settlements on a per turn basis. Wood Elf settlements that can be properly upgraded should give a trickle to get you started, the settlements outside should give more, and captured capitals should give you a lot. That way there's still a requirement for growth, research and the purchasing of units but you still get Amber to spend rather than worrying about going into the red on Amber because you opted to permanently spend one on something and then your military alliance buddy started to eat poo or fight another of your military allies. It'd also make growing yourself up enough to confederate the other Wood Elves take less time and mitigate more of that initial build-up's tedium and stress, particularly that how far you need to roam to get that Amber currently when your home region's public order has a tendency towards tanking any time you stay out for five seconds.

I tried doing this once, conquered all the pleasant and unpleasant land on the map, once all that was left was uninhabitable desert/wasteland yeah no thanks. Mayyyyyybe if you didn't have to worry about macro as much the later on the game went it would be doable.

I keep running into this thing where I start sieging a settlement and it won't let me attack manually or auto resolve. I just had two armies sitting on Khemri for like 4 turns and it never gave me an option to do anything. Is this a bug?
