You know, this reminds me of the time when my cat accidentally destroyed the neighbour's pool. It was a pool very much like that thing, just in black and in the garden instead of underground. Now I hope those guys don't have any pets with sharp claws hanging around, or that pool is running on borrowed time.

I think the fact that it's in an underground basement with no ventilation or way to reliably clean it means the entire basement's time was borrowed.

Does insanity have any other effect than making commanders not take orders sometimes when planning moves? I was looking at the Void Spectre in the mod inspector and wondering what "bringing insanity to enemy forces and the general population" means.

Shattered Soul is the one where they can destroy labs\temples and forts, Insanity just has them occasionally stand around ftaghning or going the stars are left. Most of the insanity actions don't do anything, a few slightly increase insanity (so an insane thing will tend to slowly get more insane over time).

Okay, but it doesn't affect non-commander troops right? And the "general population" part just means poploss and unburied corpses.

Site searching and preaching are other insanity-actions I've seen. There's nothing more annoying then some of your mages suddenly dropping out of your marching army because they need to search for magic sites right now.

Just seen a message I've never seen before in a game : "There has been a major disturbance in the divine dominions of the world. <PG>'s dominion has grown stronger at the cost of all other pretender gods." Is this someone Wishing for more dominion? Or is something else going on? Can anyone elaborate?

News from my mod-project: I've finished the units (summons and everything) for EA Lagash, so the EA nation of Gemmod is close to being testable. Right now I'm working my way down this list: 1. Finishing up standard weapons+armor for units 2. Summon spells for units (mostly copy+paste) 3. Heroes + equipment 4. Some magic items 5. Events 6. Debugging 7. Testgame Since the three nations are part of an overlapping theme, some of the units/items/spells/events will end up being recycled or just slightly altered in MA/LA Akkad. This of course means the other nations should be done a lot faster afterwards!

How many mod nations are running around out there now? It might be neat to sometime have a game featuring several modded nations. I've about got a playtest-ready version of LA Underhome done, which will make the dwarf nations all fully playable (but I need to go back and do event-modding for EA/MA).

I know a lot of the Warhammer mod nations are pretty hilariously overpowered, and kind of would need to be played against each other. The Lizardmen in particular are loving bonkers, with ridiculously powerful Slaan mages with excellent access to at least 3 in every path but death and blood, little Skink priests that auto-communion, cheap blood hunters you can recruit in every fort, and very plentiful sacred summons that are tough, hit like trucks, and exist for every gem type so you'll never be stuck for lack of a certain resource. Oh and their regular troops are loving great too, never any problem with expansion. They're incredibly strong.

Well I've done a bunch of nations based on Conquest of Elysium, but my original Hawaiian mod nation is Sawaiiki, Eternal Sea. I've hit it with the nerf stick hard enough to avoid the insane power levels of most mod nations and it's pretty much finished. Right now, they're kind of like a cross between MA Mictlan and Kailasa with sailing. amuayse fucked around with this message at 22:55 on Dec 7, 2014 |

So yes, you can have those totally overpowered summons, but they can break free and rampage across the map if you're unlucky.  Edit: By the way, what do you think is better: A powerful priest who can shapechange into a powerful heretic, or a summon spell who randomly gives you one or the other? The shapechange may or not be player-controlled and may or may not be a one-way street. I haven't decided yet. (That last unit is giving me headaches, but EA Lagash still needs at least one more priest.) Libluini fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Dec 7, 2014 |

I gave some thought to making an Aasmeg nation before, which would roughly model the stereotypical "wrath of the norsemen" vikings in EA, with a lot of sailing units, plunderers, and blood sacrfice. In MA it would lead into a more civilized, less naval/raiding-focused nation (think Christianized Scandinavia), with LA being a more post-Viking society with excellent cavalry and weapons technology (think the Normans). Throughout the ages their magical abilities would dwindle; blood magic and glamour abilities would be common in EA, limited to powerful mages in MA, and gone by LA, since that's a huge theme in the game already. I never quite finished it because it's a real bitch to find good sprites for size-3 creatures to work with (and Vikings are not exactly a creative concept for a new nation  ).

How about making a spell that can summon either a priest or heretic using the various negative #montag values?

I have to look up the basic #montag-summon spell I've written and the spell part of the modding manual again to see if my vague idea of alternating/random summons is feasable/doable. Edit: I'm saying this because I already made a powerful priest able to shapechange into a powerful mage and back, so a priest/heretic shapechanger would be basically the same idea again. Well, let's just say I have a lot of testing to do before I fully commit in this case. Libluini fucked around with this message at 02:48 on Dec 8, 2014 |
