Damerian Edition
>>1881939Faggot soi beta male edition
Good morning saaars. All is well in Nadimraj. Nadimraj intarplanar suparpower by 1821 saars, all cannorian women like having da sex with raheni people. Thank yuo sars, haev a nice day sir.
>>1881956no, that's Rogier "Bottom Bitch of Verne" Silmuna you are thinking about
I wonder how many devs lurk here
>>1881939>Adenn_SkylanceSounds like the bad OC love interest in a Harry Potter fanfic
>>1882005A lot, they pretend they don't care about our opinion, but they still read
>Getting nerfed in EUIV>Dosen't exist in V3 due to genocide by GnollsThe sheer hatred this tag creates in devs really needs to be examined
>>1882005A good few. They onions out about us (they like people playing their mod) whenever they remember we exist though eventually it gets too chuddy for them and they forget we exist again. I feel some of them are hiding their power levels however and lurk more regularly.
>>1882023they banned their resident crossposting tranny-hater, he lasted surprisingly long
>Play as Venail>Get to the point where I can declare Age of Reclamation>Realize I can wait until my leader is 6/6/6 before triggering it to avoid the crisis entirely all while expanding. >mfw it took me 3 playthroughs of Venail to figure this out
>>1882038You want the Rianvisa to happen, though
>>1882039non-rianvisa has a wholesome Lithiel who keeps the ruinborn as a permanent underclass instead of battery-class
>>1882043You can go with Rianvisa Calasandur or Sicrheior for that
>>1882039Sometimes more content isn't necessarily better gameplaywise. In vanilla triggering Ottoman decadence aren't worth it at all and even though the Rianvisa is way better than that it's still aren't worth it at all imo.
>>1882039Meh, I've done it enough times. I want to see what it's like without death for 30 years
>Elikhand
Slopbennar
>>1881939In my Castanor run I've finally forced these faggots into the caves formerly occupied by Khugdir. I imagine they're all raggedy refugees now since they share a cave border with Tarkir.
Do the devs actually take the feedback they receive from the job board offerings well? Sometimes I want to contribute with the development in writing and planning but I don't want to just waste my time and have everything I write be completely ignored.
Unbelievable. The ONE time i want there to be orcs in Escann, so i can purge them - there are none. Not a single one.Bladebreaker is Covenbladic
>>1882424I see Rogieria
>>1882436Oh, they're gonna get it
>>1882424Gentrification is proven to reduce Green-on-Green violence
what nation should i play now?
>>1882451What have you played?
What's your favorite vanilla MT and what's your favorite Anbennar MT?For me it's Byzantium and Bianfang/Jaddari
>>1882454i don't rememberi know i haven't really played anything outside europe except for some dwarves though
>>1882457Play snotfinger, like me. You get to be really angry at Orcs
>>1882457BianfangJaddariBirzartansesCommandFeiten
I cant figure out how to craft a mask in the new masked butcher MT.
>>1882020did they get reworked or something? the last time I played they didn't seem that great or was that tradepower to op? Still one of my favorite nations though.
>>1882495Nevermind, it was just locked past a mission. I just found it weird how the estate tooltip implies that you kill off pops but then you have to convert/purge dwarves to continue.
>>1882519Eborthil got a rework a while back. But it was incomplete because Sarhal hadnt been fleshed out back then.
>>1882020They hate it because the BBC warrior seethes that this tag is more popular than Busilar
>>1881939How much of the Grombari/Bjarnriki territory should I be giving to Vrorenmarch as Castanor? I want to ensure that I can build a navy of course. I also want to genocide the orcs but Vroren are considering them an accepted culture and an oppressed minority. Is there a way to get my subjects to purge or will it just happen over time?
Is the Orcish TOTAL FEY DEATH tree on the bitbucket yet, also is masked butcher playable yet?
>>1882651Yes to both. Masked Butcher is a long one.
>>1882655Nice, im gonna roast some fey tonight then.
>>1882655Quarbit played them 2 days ago and their tree was the basic one, did he play an older build or was it updated recently?
>>1882016I'm glad Lothane kills him
>>1882693buy an ad, faggot
>>1882693The new MT war merged into the bitbucket on the 20th. If he played with release or an older build, it's not it. The new one makes you conquer land in Bulwar, Sarhal, Rahen (both near the raj and the command), serpentspine and forbidden plains.>adgtt
>>1881939I need the most EVIL nations I've played Esthil (loved it), Landshark (not evil but still good), Myxk (10/10 hate the rest of the gnolls) and Luciande (10/10 as far as vampires go) Are there any evil trees in Bulwari/Elf Land? Elf Slavery? Harpies taking mandatory elf boy husbands? >>1882456 vanilla trees suck desu but Venice and Esthil
>>1883011Drinking the fey koolaid as deepwoods orcs makes you pretty nasty, even compared to regular orcs. You're not explicitly told to purge humans but you really should considering all the events and missions.Venail into Aelnar can turn very evil, especially if you go Elissa or Dahvar routes.Empkeios is all about blue elves enslaving brown elves.Covenblad can apparently become evil in the new tree but I haven't tried it yet.
>>1883011In Bulwar there’s the harpies, Thukt, Elizna and now there’s masked butcher. Roadwarrior is a constant genocide. Corvuria is vampires. Anyone in Cannon can go infernal court now. Chaingrasper is mini-Esthil. And there’s a ton of them in Haless specifically. Sarisung, Command, Bianfang, Azjakuma, Jiantsiang, the man-eating harimari, Yinquan (I think?)>>1883053They are not quite evil. More like “idealistic dorks degenerating into pragmatic authoritarianism”.
>>1883099>harpies>evil
>>1883099Why is Elizna evil?
>>1883290the sun elves are evil in the same way segregation is evil and they force humans to worship elf-jesus
>>1883290Elizna is probably the least-evil sun elf country
>>1883099Bianfang is good. Long live our benevolent Dragon Emperor.
>>1881939My ancestor...
>>1883290Did you see the way they threat the khet? Also the Jaherian Exemplars come from them.
>>1883341The dragon emperor is cool but he’s only around for like 20 years. The game mechanics aren’t kind for these rapid-expansion leadership types. Same happens with Lothane, the leader of the Command, Orda Aldressia and most non-elf leader-focused countries.
>>1883614The leader of Bianfang receives the title of Dragon King, becoming Dragon Emperor when you form Dahui. It's not a specific character
>>1883614Actually is that still true? Not been paying attention to patch notes or anything, but there was a change to how aging works at some point which has made Anbennar work way better. I'm semi-regularly seeing Dwarf generals hit 100 these days.
>>1883618Anbennar does have a different aging system but it only affect fantasy races. The problem is that the game mechanics don’t allows you to rapidly expand in ways that have precedents in history like Han dynasty which unified China in 5 years, which would be the equivalent to Bianfang alongside Qin Shi Huang. Or even Wex annexing all of East Dameria and half the island in 1444 with zero aggressive expansion.The only way around this is using mission trees to give you free integrations but the. you have a poor game balance and a overly predictable game outcome.
>>1881939bros pirate harpies are up on the bitbucket and let me tell you i've never been more excited
>>1881939It's 1790 and I'm thinking that I may not be able to finish my Castanor MT after all (given that I've just gotten to the anti-Centaur mission and they've been long-gone). The coalition against me is too big and between truces and the size of the wars I don't think I can finish, even with 30 years left on the table. That said, when I do finish, I'm considering trying out a Dwarf nation. This will be my 2nd playthrough of any nation in Anbennar. Should I go:>Arg-Ordstun (going for the Aul-Dwarov)>Haraz Orldhum (slaver/warsuit memes)>Dur-Vazhatun (cool lore)>Verkal Gulan (heard these were good first dwarves)>Ovdal Tungr (also heard these were good first dwarves)alternatively should I go for a completely different area of the game, maybe further into Bulwar, somewhere in notAsia, or the Lake Federation?
>>1881939This mod is going to be dead after they shit up the performance by adding faggot island
>>1883712Depends, what kind of gameplay are you looking for?Ovdal Lodhum is all about, peace, love, and complete Orc death.Mithrandum is all about complete mercernary domination.I can't remember their name but the one just south of Dur-Vazhatun I enjoy, despite being old, as you invent the tank. My personal favorite is Seghdir for trade company shenanigans.
>>1883712i just started a haraz oldhum game and i got 1 slave province aside from thje freebie i am sad and now tolerant to ogres
>>1883712Arg-Ordstun's whole shtick is "fuck aul-dwarov, all my homies hate aul-dwarov", they have their own all-dwarf empire instead, even going so far as getting rid of the crownthat's all optional though, you get to choose on both of thoseit's one of the strongest dwarf MTs out there, probably the best one honestly
>>1883724>Mithrandum is all about complete mercernary dominationIt is also about total orc AND goblin death, they even go out to Escann exclusively to kill more orcs. Verkal Gulan is the one where you replace ALL of your army with mercs
>>1883512>Escann half-orcs LARP as humans>Grombar half-orcs LARP as orcs
>>1883849That's an awful lot of totally consensual interspecies intercourse
I wonder what wholesome story could explain how the first half-orcs came to be.
oh it's one of those escann MTs
>>1883839>>1883726>>1883724I guess I'm looking for something flavorful that doesn't necessarily take me into Escann/Cannor and could result in a powerful military. I do like large formables too.Currently it's between:>Arg-Ordstun (really strong and also Aul-Dwarov though they may be a weird choice to form it)>Dur-Vazhatun (cool story)>Ovdal Lodhum (I think they probably have a lot of fun in Bulwar)I'm definitely hanging up this Castanor game soon, it's 1809 and I'm running out of stamina
>>1883957>powerful militaryarg-ordstun has disciplineovdal kanzad has crazy artillery buffs, so it's probably the strongest late game tag>something flavorfuldur vazhatun only has flavor going for it, not much elsearg-ordstun has a lot of it if you care about the history of old dwarovarkrakdhumvror is also good on both criteria, but way harder, with extra back-to-back disastersovdal lodhum, khugdir, almdihr and verkal gulan suck ass
man Luciande was fun until the MT abruptly stopped after she told Lucian to go fuck himself
>>1883970>dur vazhatun only has flavor going for it, not much elseDoes that mean they aren't very fun?>suck assWhy do they suck?
>>1883946Damn I LOVE generic escanni trees!
>>1884024they suck because their MTs are boring, old or barebones>Does that mean they aren't very fun?pretty much, you're at the ass end of the serpentspine there, no big threats, just colonise stuff, read fluff about the stars, not much else
>>1884056you used to have to fight Grombar really early on but that's probably not the case anymore after they got nerfed
>>1884134most of the harder but fun starts like that have been nerfed, nimscodd now gets a five year truce that can be prolonged right until you form hierarchythe only challenging place left is around the command
>>1884238And even that was nerfed with that Ruin Kingdoms Rebellion disaster. They also overdone it when nerfing Lorent, but it might be fixed in future
>>18842799 times out of 10 command survives it no worse for wear, if you attack it during it you'll get zeroed in by the AIit's not a nerf, merely a bump, at best it will give you 5 years before you have to deal with it
>>1884279I have never ever seen Command fall from that disaster on its ownand even then, when I was playing Rajnadhaga(into Hul-az-Krakazol), the split Commands simply reunified and reconquered, it was kind of funnyat least they lost their MT and buffs from it?
>>1884417>at least they lost their MT and buffs from it?what do you mean with this?
>>1884417This has been my experience, yeah. They'll never fall to it on their own, but when it kicks off you might be able to take advantage and give them enough of a kicking that it sticks.
For me it's Beauclair.
>>1884731meant to also ask what's the renaissance italy/south france part of anbennar
>>1884732Wineport area
>>1884732>renaissance italyEsmaria, the lands around Konwell, Estallen and Leslinpar, formerly united under one Duchy. Fashion capital of the world, also known for masked river parties, resembling Venetian carnival >south franceWinesbay. Wine, chateaus and rebellious noblesBoth areas are also known for prostitues from the cult of Minara
>>1884734>>1884735>wineport>winebay>bloodwine>winelordsran out of ideas?
>>1884737It's pretty common in Anbennar. A lot of places have one strong theme, their national idée fixe. It's especially noticeable in the Dwarven Holds
>>1884340>>1884417It can only really fail if it picks the worst option in the event you get before it. Which the AI is unlikely to do and is definitely not worth it for players because the rewards is annexing a ton of land, but you get AE for it. If it was an AE-less land grand as a reward for having to fight Xia, Bianfang, the Raj, Azjakuma and 3 huge breakaway states that take most of your initial dev without the aid of the goblins, it would had been cool.
>>1884737Common was a mistake. Castanor should have never let its language get corrupted.
>>1884737meanwhile ROTW be like>rayavhatimana>degumwamba>liukhexingzhe>ghajaavanujikan>buruvaqoyla>afakoyuzemby(only one of these is fake and you can't tell me which one without looking it up)at least centaurs had the common courtesy to translate their names like RUIN BRINGER
>playing nalean>have a mission that I need to loot bhauvari's coast>they built the batteries that block raiding coasts (which is in their MT)So, I guess I'm just fucked and I will have to declare war on bhauvari and hold their provinces for months.
>>1884969how are the harpirates otherwise
>>1884987Its okay I guess. It suffers from being the first mt in its region. East Sarhal is still very barebones.
Don't play Gor Burad, Dwarf anons, classic case of "Oh mire disasters and ball ache events is good gameplay" style dwarf nonsense. FFS they should at least make the shut tou gain after fixing your problems immediately good or something. But getting over the dumbass disaster just unlocks some good province modifiers. That's fucking it. Not even bothering to get to the end of that shit ass missiin tree; haven't even hit the hoardcurse cause my stupid ass hold erupted. Hilarious to think other dwarves can just take that hold and dig to the bottom no problems, what a fucking joke.
>>1885058I wonder what they are going to do with Hul Jorkad. Obsidian Legion playthrough, maybe? Orc slavery?
>>1885067>Hul-Jorkad dorfs learn that Ducaniel was behind it all>complete and total elf death ensues
>>1881939What am I even supposed to do here? Crathanor fucking cucked me.
>>1885155Restart and conquer faster.
>>1885155wardec crathanor
>>1885155open the console, swap to their tag, change occupation, swap back to your tag unpause
>>1885155>>1885232they will become your vassal anyways, so it's not cheating
>>1885155You can wait them out, but it's going to take a while
>>1883692are they good though
The TOTAL FEY DEATH tree is really is a bit rough around the edges.You dont get claims on most of your stuff until youre almost down, i was 4 techs behind on admin.Narrative wise they want Sapchopper to keep their leader alive who is a general, so you are supposed to conquer and core what is basically 500-ish dev in 50 years.Its doable just lower autonomy everywhere and expel any non orcs asap.then they want you to fortify the border which includes devving 100 dev cost provinces worth 1k mil mana, your economy sucks despite the gold mine which has received an event to bait and cuck you.Now im shafted because i need to drill armies and by AE, i like it so far tho, just some things that seem like an oversight.I dont understand why trees like that get in no problem and this glorious Wex tree doesnt, karakhan is a good tree but the Wex one is amazing.
Why can't I just say no to the greenskins? Elikhand gets a choice but the knights that came here to kill orcs and restore the old Escann have to get along with them?
Magic rework is dead
Magic rework closed due to AIDS
>>1885792It was ill-conceived to begin with, the existing magic system uses mana more intelligently. Adding/changing spells is good, regional variations are good, patrons are good, but there was never a reason to rework the whole thing or add a meme bar. Of course when the scope is that big and goes that deep there's going to be fundamental disagreements, and therefore it never got done.
>>1885792>>1885827>go to check what happened>it was the auirius spergout thing from a month ago STILL continuing>not only was he not banned, but he managed to purge his main rival>but they were the one actually doing the coding so the whole thing is deadkek, this is insane, I wonder how long reality will continue to warp around this madlad
>>1885846retard, reusing current mana is limiting because vanilla mana is a very non dynamic resource.Only MP players would ever use magic
>>1885792>>1885827Good. Fuck these menu-heavy systems.
>>1885849Auirus has a history of transphobia, and the mods are more than happy to bend to his wishes.
>>1885849Bro is talking like bonbonny is his fucking anime rival, grow up basement dweller
>>1885935It is equally dumb to take a dislike of people the same as transphobia. Not everything is hatred against a specific type of people some of it is just hate/dislike against you specifically. Blocking any chance at self reflection as it just being hate against your type of people is the worst possible practice
>Auirus ruined yet another thing for the mod with another one of his spergoutsMany such cases!
>autistic af>keeps ruining things>holds grudgesAuirus is a true dorf
>>1886013Many? What else did he ruin?
>>1886018From what I've seen people complaining about him he just seems like a general autist with an overinflated ego who will shut down any interesting idea that isn't his own, since he's in charge of two whole regions and a lot of the balance decisions go through him as well.The fact he put in a fairly common event in game that comes down to correctly getting the name of his self-insert dwarf god right (something you would have no idea of knowing unless you checked the discord) or else you get punished should give a hint of how his ego is inflated when things come to the mod.
recommend me a fun naval nation for trade/piracy, just downloaded the mod and the few opms I looked at don't have unique MT
>>1886021That's true, I love how in denial they are about obvious shit. I think the initial incident that set what would lead to this ban in motion was Bonbonny saying that leads are allowed to get away with a lot more than regular contributors. It wasn't even directed at Auirus explicitly, but he held a grudge over that, and it was immediately framed as "bad faith".It's such a weird thing to be in denial about, too, of course the little reviewer apparatchik peons won't have as much scrutiny for Auirus, who's a huge cunt all the time AND the lead for two regions which he can lock you out of if he doesn't like you.
>>1886022Eborthil's MT is quite old and not the best the mod has to show for itself, but for a vanilla-esque colonization playthrough it's great.Reveria is alright, although a bit dated. You do a lot of piracy, raiding, colonialism and conquest.
>>1886022I have heard good things about Myx, a gnoll adventurer tag that does pir8 stuffthere are harpy pirates in east Sarhal but I think they are only on the public test buildNathalaire, which is supposed to be THE pirate tag has no content
>>1885155Did the sea dwarves receive a MT in the bitbucket? Workshop version has generic MT.
Ovdal Kanzad MT needs an update just for the sake of nerfing them, I just stackwipe everything lategame no matter how large the enemy is>other dorfs: fallen in line>Elves: minced>Lake Fed: sent back to the steppes>goblinoids of all kinds: blasteddoesn't matter that the enemy outnumbers me 10 to 1, I just fucking blast them
>>1886027Yes
>>1886043Cool, was looking to play some dwarves, and was bored of the mountain onesAlso I saw infernal court is a religion now, do you get any flavor for switching? Did they finally add the Castanor infernal court formable?
>>1886024What would it realistically take to depose Auirus for such behavior?
>>1886046Screenshot anon here, I just started them amd they're pretty cool. Not sure if I spent too long getting the first war sorted (1 year plus a tag switch to Crathanor). Really it's a hard transition going from 1819 Castanor to this. By the way, when are you supposed to actually form Castanor? I did it fairly late, once I finished the Marrhold tree, so I never got half the Castanor one done.
>>1886022Neckcliffe is about becoming sole naval power in Anbennar, building your ports and circumnavigating the globe
>>1885886Bro, your instant sieges?
>>1886064>By the way, when are you supposed to actually form Castanor?Castanor or the Black Demense is formable as soon as the castanori wars trigger in the age of the witch kingIf you have all of the Castanor subcontinent under your control and a few other provinces you can form it instantly when the event triggersHow quick you can do it really depends, but that's the earliest you can do it.
>>1886064>By the way, when are you supposed to actually form Castanor?1500 latest
>>1886022Mykx. Getting declared on by Lorent just to sink or steal all their ships, never letting them land in Aelantir and taking all their colonies is great. Go naval for free coastal barrages too.Landshark is supposed to be a naval power but actually focusing on boats there is suicide. Not recommended.
>>1886145>>1886022I'll also add, make sure to expel / purge other races as Mykx. It goes against the slavery theme but constantly ferrying or stationing armies everywhere in Aelantir because of constant revolts is ass.
>>1883120He is ready for smashing harpy cloaca but I am. Devs need to bring back harpy brothels and EXPAND them
>>1885935Don’t know who that nigga is but he will single handedly keep this alive longterm. Trannies WILL ruin a discord, a mod and a community like this of they have any power and must be purged at all costs.
>>1886194The trannies are just collateral damage of his giant ego that will ironically do more damage to the project than ten trannies combined
>>1885935WTF? I suddenly like Auirus??
>>1886192yes but there are 20 harpies waiting in queue and they will most likely kill you at the endonly after learning that not every sexual encounter must be done through vicious rape we get the "modern" look on harpies.
>>1885935what happened?
>>1886213See: >>1886197
