Wex edition. S*lmuna greyskins not welcome Previous: >>2167441
>>2185457Venomtooth MT is up on the git, they enslave the humiez and gobbos and want to continue the greentide
>>2185270>he didn't join the empire
>>2185479>they enslave the humiez and gobbos and want to continue the greentideYup, kino incoming.
>>2185270That's why you start an Ibevar campaign by improving relations with Wex and joining the empire.
Why the fuck is everyone converting to vampirism, I think I saw a dwarf hold convert as well.
I have been thinking about something like Castanorc. like what if the orcs just started larping as Castanorians I think that could make for a good mt
>>2185563So...Corintar?
>>2185563>like what if the orcs just started larping as CastanoriansThis is currently being worked on
>>2185585ew no they shouldn't be tolerant at all
Whats the best cav tag, centaurs notwithstanding? I know adenica gets big numbers, can anyone rival them?
>>2185563not quite what you're thinking of, but karashar are black orcs who convert to the old sun cult and repent for barbarism by freeing humanity, and they are actually devout in repentance
>>2185563This is quite literally Kaztubar, and it's already in works.
>>2185585>>2185620>MARRY THE ORC TOMBOY OR DIE>"Tolerant"
Jadd won
>>2185700Spiderwretch
>>2185761zokkasisters how do we respond without sounding mad
Aelantir belongs to the elves.
EU5 won
every mission tree is "conquer half the world"lame
>>2185799yeah but it got narrative popup events tho
>>2185806i want to make cute local empires not massive ugly blobs
playing Luna Confederacy and I have now gotten to the point in all EoA games where I have to solo all of Cannor and Escann every war due to AE
Lads what the fuck just happened? Is this Ironman save bricked now? They hate me and want me dead.
>>2185880you either restart or lube up elfboy
>>2185900They declared war on me and wanted me to release all the nations I ate until this point undoing all my progress. I give up, give me a nation to try, I like evil ones.
>>2185546That mod sucks, and half of it is blatantly plagiarized
>>2185799Try Yuanszi
>>2185907>evil onesMagisterium is pure evil by nature of being a state controlled by m*gesotherwise I can recommend Esthil (also m*ges), Wyvernheart (also m*ges), and perhaps even Nimscodd (artificers are just slightly less evil m*ges and are on thin ice)
>>2185810Cyranvar can go isolationist after race war in the forest.
>>2185907Wyvernheart, Covenblad, or Esthil into Black DemesneVenail into AelnarThe Command AzjakumaMasked Butcher
>>2185907Stalbor
>>2185922>>2185930I think I will try Azjakuma>>2185937Sorry, way too evil, I have some standards.
>>2185937Stalbor or is evil? I thought they were just...stalwart
>wex threadwex board
>>2185979Beating Bianfang early to conquer hubao can be tricky but after that they are a very fun campaign
Thanks to the guy last thread who recommended playing down here. Its the first fun I've yet had in Sarhal
>>2186026It's not that tricky. Defensive battle on fort + Ogre shock = they die. You then get a nice juicy high dev capital to pillage in the peace deal for religious power
>>2185546The council of liches wont stand for this
>>2185907Skurkokli and roadwarrior delete provinces
Are their any mts as exciting as durvazatun? I think that was was the first i reallt engaged with. Beautiful color and coat of arms too
>>2185762How do they deal with the new "sedentarization" thing? Just purge the centaurs?
>>2185907Zokka
>>2186193If you don't want to get centaur military, you might as well. Your MT only wants you to tolerate the ogres and humans
Is ACE still borked after their last update or have those mongoloids sorted it out?
>>2186193Yeah I'm also wondering. Is sedentarization like some sort of province modifier or what? What does it do?
>>2185880To expand on >>2185536That's why you start an Ibevar campaign by improving relations with Wex and joining the empire, then get elected emperor and unify it on your own terms.
>>2186299the centuar provinces are stuck at 100% autonomy so you have to spend money (I think 50 ducats) to begin sedentarisation which is a series of events where you can choose to either settle the state with your culture or to keep the centaurs and get a bonus to trade. anyways the tooltip explains it pretty well actually
what is the actual difference between moon elves and wood elves? they both seem to live in large forests, also how do moon elves continue to live in large forests while having large modern cities and armies. what does that even look like?
>>2185880What have you even been doing for the last 100 years
>>2186311The forest that the wood elves are in is magically cut off from the rest of the world by the fey so they are quite backward.
>>2186305Thematically I dont love the idea if I'm playing an elf nation that decided to not be part of the Empire.
>>2186313Recovering from the crippling debt that was incurred from the religious conversion. Then I invaded northward and eastward enough to not get a coalition stomping me.
Does army tradition and idea modifiers affect war wizards as if they were regular recruited generals?
>>2185700The elephant-lords in Rahen can get amazing cavalry. Though it does require starting right in the Command's line of fire.
How do you ack the command as Khadisrapur? When I wanted to spawn the axebellow cartel I started as Rajnadhaga and destroyed the hobs during Sir rebellion but was on the verge of bankruptcy by the end of the war (the AI fully recovered though an became one of my biggest rivals as Ovdal-az-Ân) Khadisrapur is much tinier, do you reroll untill the command chooses the hardest rebellion option?
>>2186552Yuanszi gets a mission that makes them take the hardest option, I haven't played Khadisrapur, but I think I saw someine say they have the same thing
>>2186558Interesting, I haven't played them either but I'm curious about them, there's not too much content for the ruin kingdomsBut first I'm in a mood to replay Castanor, then I'll maybe try Greedy Grin.
>>2186332Ibevar starts in a disaster where they're purging the Elvish boomers that want to remain isolationists, howeverbeit
>>2186592Fairs
what am i supposed to do now
>>2186702kill hags
>>2186702What depopulated the area below the desert?
>>2186702take the mandate, kill the swamp trolls>>2186769you can disable regions at the start of the game for performance, the same popup that lets you turn on great/mythical conquerors
>>2186431this is pretty cool
>>2186332>Thematically I dont love the idea if I'm playing an elf nation that decided to not be part of the Empire.Then enjoy fighting 400k anbenanrians with your 40k elve chuds.
>>2186787woah when did they add this?
>"I really want to stick my penis in this thing"Why are human men like this?
>>2187070That ruinborn's a male, most non-Esmari human men don't tend to swing that way.
>>2187091>That ruinborn's a maleAm I supposed to believe that ruinborn females look any better?
>>2187091>most non-Esmari human men don't tend to swing that way*most non-escanniThat land is cursed and it turns nearly everyone who steps foot into it a raging homo. See: the Count's League, the Sons of Dameria, etc
>>2187094the fallout of witch-kings casting suck cock on their rival kingdoms
>>2187181she cute
Konwell tree any fun or should i play feitan?
>>2187368I'd wait until Insyaa is added before playing Feiten since they're supposed to have content for it
>>2187181That "thing" is my wife!
>>2187368Do you like sitting around waiting for tech 11 to finally be able to build manufactories to progress your trees? Because that is exactly what i'm doing right now as Feiten.
>>2186702Gardening
>>2187474>~ tech 10ez fixthe real kicker is the “wait until x year” missions
>>2187181Being that there are no actual Drows, which Elves in this setting are the most similar to them?
>>2187496Gemradcurt
>>2187489>the real kicker is the “wait until x year” missionsPashaine has this shit too and it sucks
>>2187489>playing silverforge>look at mission tree>need to have embraced the enlightenment for a missionThat was an incredibly long campaign for such a disappointing ending
This country name sounds like an old timey racist insult
>>2187496It’s surprising, you think at least like one elf group would end up in the Serpentspine at some point
>Playing Gemradcurt>why the fuck am I so fucking poor>winter winds is devastating all my provinces and I have no productionWow, so Ive got to spam forts everywhere to counter this?
are there any techno-elves or are they all spiritually boomers
>>2187733Both Moonhaven and Ibevar have an option to embrace Ravelianism, which is all about artificery and progress
>>2187741this is such a non-answer go fuck yourself
>>2187780nigger there are five elf tags, that's as close as it gets
>>2187780Faggot
>>2187689defensive + innovative ideas are basically a requirement for this country
>>2187733https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3589357585
>>2187733Taychend and Eordand both get artificers
>>2187689Gemradcurt is absolutely the easiest country that I've played. The only challenge is the first war or two against your fellow winter court nations and maybe one more war against autumn chuds because you are likely to be outnumbered in those two wars, but then you unlock undead military and never face any challenge ever again. And the eternal winter gives strong buffs to your economy, you just have to make sure you have total fort coverage, and on top of that you get a ton of gold every few years through festivals
>>2187786He's right thougtbh raveliansim is the blandest and stupidest shit in this mod and it absolutely does not feel techy or artificer-y
>>2187856Yeah seems so.>>2187880All the wars have been easy until I destroyed the nation with Winter Winds and Eternal Winter buff is now gone. But basically I've fucked myself by being spending decades getting fucked by devastation. Its 1620, and Ive only just got the Renaissance so very far behind on tech. I dont have the economy to buy the 4k institutions and have an army to fight the colonial nations at the same time.
>>2187908>Its 1620, and Ive only just got the RenaissanceYou know you can dev for it right? You can stack power cost reduction in this mod to an insane degree, especially as a mage
>>2187911Yeah, I've just been doing ideas and converting pops, also devastation has stopped shit from spreading.
why cannor elf portraits so swarthy when their models are all aryan, it would make sense for sun elves but it throws me for a loop when its moon elves
which nations are the most tech focused, having the fast innovation gain and dev?
>>2187945Dur-Vazhatun. You get a unique system that gets you to 100 innovativness for free.
>>2187945magisterium's MT is about building the greatest province with the most dev discount in the entire world
>>2187945gnomes and kobolds and goblin allclan
>>2187945Seconding Vez-Uzdenklan
Gnomes will dismantle your religion with FACTS and LOGIC
>>2188191My country gets buffs when selecting a god. Checkmate, atheists.
>>2188191gnomes will misunderstand sentience as being the same thing as sapience
anyone got flamethrowers?
>>2187943because they're obviously recycled from the sun elf ones>>2188225gnolls
>>2187973>>2187990What's the most fun goblin clan to form it with? Truedagger, Mountainshark, Railskulker, or Snotfinger? I assume Spiderwretch is not good for it
>>2188323I'd say Mountainshark or Snotfinger. A few version back, the issue with snotfinger was the tendency of escan orc tags to expand into the serpentspine and rape you to deat, but idk how it is nowadays.
>decide to try out vic3 again>do nothing but build artificery and automaton factories>winit's really that simplestill boring though
>>2188323Truedagger is the most !!!FUN!!! nation to form it as if you follow it's mission tree
this game taught me that you need to utterly destroy your enemies if you want to feel some semblance of safety
>>2188421If you kill your enemies, they win.
>>2188437kill them, raise them.
Reading posts from discord and reddit I have a feeling people downplay the genocide orcs committed in Escann, while at the same time treating the tags that expel or purge orcs a lot harsher What do you guys think?
>>2188447Orcs are nigger, therefore if they do anything wrong, its not their fault and it didnt really happen. And if it did happen it was good.
Is Sareyand fun?
>>2188447>genocideum actually anon there was no genocide, the native escanni willing left after being defeated in honorable duels
>>2188447>>2188462Doesnt the Vampire guy still treat them like shit??
>>2188450>Orcs are niggerI really hate this meme. Orcs are much more akin to Mongols.
>>2188462Woah, the Escanni are such a noble people. We need more half orchish provinces for the betterment of Cannor
>>2188467he enslaves them, that's why you get that event at the start telling you not to purge them>>2188455yeah but all sun elves are very similar
so what's the ibevar -> blademarches strat
Jadd elf portraits should have a full bushy beard and brown skin
>>2188518this is true, but alas we live in a world where only the taychendi get to have beards
>>2188462Is there any of them that still wants them all purged after the colonisation of the region.
>>2188447>postsLike?
>>2188523Wyvernheart
>>2188447i would wager it's a combination of "the orcs did that shit before the game started, therefore it's backstory" and "genocide of the orcs is currently happening, therefore i gotta look at it and think about it" resulting in people wanting to woobify the orcs
>>2188469ThematicallyOrcs = NiggersDwarfs = JewsElf = WhitesHumans = grey and flavourless
>>2188666>Humans = grey and flavourlessWhich is exactly why the best fantasy settings don't have them
>>2188678The best settings have humans as the precursor race.
>>2188666>Orcs = NiggersAgain, I say that they are thematically much more akin to Mongols, and other such barbarians of old. Niggers just commit random acts of violence without purpose. Orcs are organized, and their violence has a purpose: to become as strong as possible, and to raid and conquer as many societies as possible. What Orcs are to the more civilized races in high fantasy are what the Mongols were to China, the Germanic tribes were to Rome, etc.
Orcs are vikings>Rapacious fiends>Spawn of Yakub>Wear furs and wield axes and shit
Korgus Dookanson is Attila the Hun because both of their empires immediately collapsed after their deaths
>>2188462No they didn't. Where did this meme start?
>>2188730Korgus is more like Muhammad. A warlord who united his semi-nomadic people by creating his own religion, launched a massive jihad/holy war that toppled several kingdoms. Only Korgus, unlike Muhammad, planned total extermination of people he conquered.
>>2188447You can’t point to one good flavor event about orcs pillaging and raping an Escanni city, so it didn’t happen.
>>2188738>Where did this meme start?here, probably
>>2188756The GREENED porn submod has plenty of those
>>2188748Jaddari already is Mohammed
>>2188775GREENED daughter or GREYED son?
>>2188756>it's outright stated the first generation of horcs were spawned by rape>yeah bro this invading horde totally didn't loot the shit out of every escanni city it entered bro invading hordes are known for being civil>why are there next to no escanni in escann? don't worry about it
>>2188829no no no anon it's not rape or looting or even genocide because they fought those starving serfs in 1v1 combat (just ignore the orc is like 2 meters tall and has spent his whole life fighting and dueling)
>>2188829The noble savages were misled by their baser instincts and had no personal responsibility in any of this. It is humanity’s job to do better.
>>2188789He isn't an intentional inspiration. Just saying there isn't anyone irl closer to Korgus
>>2188789Jaddar is JaddarKorgus is KorgusOrcs are orcsLet a fantasy world stay a fantasy world
do you think anime would exist in Anbennar?
>>2189021>Let a fantasy world stay a fantasy worldNo
>>2189161There's no direct Japan equivalent, closest is hobgobs, and I don't see them doing it. So perhaps not
is anbenncost fun?
>>2189214they will after allclan drops a couple fatboys on their heads
>>2189021it ain't fantasy though it's fairly derivative of real historythat's like saying lorent isn't obviously a pastiche of france
>>2189161If it doesn’t, it’d be a great disservice to all the man-babies in anbennar’s world

Are all Aelantir nations filled with half-orc, half-Ruinborn mulattos? How many more old worlders are there than orcish slaves?
>>2189291Aren't most the orcs there from the orc slavery decision?
>>2189291>>2189347>flood colonies with orcish slaves>fifty years later and aelantir is full of half-orcscrazy
is this mod getting abandoned when eu5 comes out
>>2189352Who owned the slave ships? Gnomes.
>>2189360No, there’s a lot of poorfags who can’t play eu5
>>2189361oy vey, shut this post down for anti-gommotism
>>2189360I've not been following EU5, how does it look? And what colonialism like?
why is it okay for lizards to ethnically cleanse populations but not okay for the star elves?
>>2189441Elves are hwhite coded.
>>2189291The Ruined Sea islands are canonically majority orc, because they're a Caribbean ripoff and the Caribbean is full of niggers.
>>2189360anbennar didn't get early access to eu5 because jaybean (the creator) is a dev on the game gilded destiny which is a victoria 2 competitor. eu5 anbennar is years away as a result, and for all we know eu5 could flop
>>2189291>Are all Aelantir nations filled with half-orc, half-Ruinborn mulattos?This is accurate to real life though
>>2188829korgus was a level 1000 mage and was mind controlling all the orcs to do that, it's not their fault they committed atrocities
>>2189360Unfortunately not.
>>2189441Lizards are cleansing humans who make clothers out of their skin. Ruinborn in comparison dindu nuffin to star elves
Taychend hero cults is the coolest religion in terms of flavor.
>>2189604wrong, hey were born ugly.
>>2189441>>2189604Aelnar doesn't really cleanse ruinborn? They either make living batteries out of them in camps, make them 2nd class citizens or forcefully conscripted soldiers.

>>2189647>Triarchy>0% orcsAs expected of gnomes, they want us to take them all in but don't have any of them themselves
Any of the Ynn nations fun?
>>2189870ehh, the mechanics are a bit cumbersome iirc. but otherwise ok.
>>2189870Yeah if you ignore the main mechanic and just take the land anyways. After that it’s a waiting simulator until the cannorians show up around 1530

>>2192188I wish it had a MT, I like Gerudians
I don't know any of the Lorent or Gawed lore. All I know is that every time I play a random Cannorian nation, I carve them up until they (and all their releasables) are willing to join the empire.
>>2192626Not an expert either but for Gawed, basically there were a bunch of wiggers living in the swamps up north, and went the dragon woke up they got stirred up and the Gawedi tribe kicked everyone else's asses and took control over the lands, wexonards and marrodics ran away to their respective territories forming Wex and Marrhold eventually. Overall Germanic-codedLands of Lencor (that's where Lorent is) we're populated by lencori tribes (I guess kinda Gaul-coded) and those tribes were babysat by dwarves from Rubyhold and influenced by Dameria, but then elves came, turned the hold of Rubyhold into a mountain-sized cuck chair and began influencing the lencori peoples heavily, who started larping as half-elves and became Lorent
>>2192645I see, I see. How many of those releasables/vassals have lore worth reading?
>>2192657No ideaIn my current run I just formed Castanor and I'm using Greatmaeches to carve up Games, I don't think their releasables even have any worthwhile lore

>>2192307Blackpowder Anbennar is kino
>>2192749Boring lore and stupid vibes, at least for me
>>2192749The God Fragment is likely Ducaniel's phylactery LARPing as God, which would be very in character for that delusional bastard
>>2192808Yeah there's also no basis to assume that the cube is actually God. It's a world full of magic, it has also Fey, Demons and other stuff that's very good at deception. Why would anyone believe that if a magic cube said that it's God then it's true
>>2192808Is there any reason to believe it’s Ducaniel in specific? I know he’s responsible for a lot of random crap, so he’s as likely as anyone, but I thought cube lore was very sparse.
