Kobold Sieges
« on: June 01, 2008, 11:16:00 am »
I just took out itemsnatcher and replaced it with [SIEGER]. Now, I get the "vile force" message screen for kobolds, but they all show up sneaking/ambushing. I've yet to encounter more than one squad, though they could all just be invisible.

Do I pump population to increase kobold siege intensity?
Can I make kobolds bona-fide siege, rather than ambush?
Can I remove human/elf traders/diplomats and replace them with SIEGER?

EDIT: I lied. Kobold sieges are fat, huge, and much scarier than Goblin sieges because they're INVISIBLE. Can I get that turned off?

Try removing [AMBUSHES] tag.

Now that would be a squishy, bloody mess of body parts.

Those kobolds blow up real nice.

Won't affect seiges.

As Nite said. Remove [AMBUSHES] Will also remove invisibility.

You can (By making Humans and Elves EVIL), but you won't get Human, Elven, and Goblin seiges - you will get one of the above (either human, elf, or goblin) depending on where you embark.
