This update might not look big but it includes several major new additions, such as massive overhaul of the vampire face generator, now you will notice much more variation in their faces, elven faces have been improved a little bit too!

The biggest editions of the update are the random face generator that can mash up faces of all creatures to create total messed up faces, and also the new lines of dialogue recorded for the demon overlord, when you defeat him in his realm and can ask him questions this new update adds voiced lines for him, the first character in the game to ever have a voice! Check it out

Oh man, I thought I was getting the hang of the game, then the demons showed up... goodbye, mercenary company...

I think if I'd known how ridiculous demons were going to be I would have practised more "sustainable hunting" on enemy nations rather than just allying with the most powerful and wiping out all those who opposed me... although I did try repeatedly to vassalize them, even after they'd attacked me many times, but those fools weren't having any of it.

This is pretty fun! Still on my first playthrough. Should really sleep right now, though, ha.    

[Huw2k8]

Yeah the demon horde are no joke!

Glad you enjoyed it so far though!

[Yoink]

Man, why does installing a champion in a fort and later taking them out of it remove them from your service? Bug?


Anyway, I have quite dramatically changed my tactics in order to have a hope of ever dealing with the demons. Before, my army was simply growing out of control as I never turned down the chance to hire more soldiers and knights. It just felt wrong! But the amount of wages was just insane. Now, I've greatly decreased the number of paid soldiers I keep, whilst continuing to hire as many slave soldiers as possible as well as letting in a steady stream of goblins attracted by our multiculturalism and goblin-friendly celebrations.

Just what those celebrations entail I don't really want to know, but it brings in cannon fodder and our people like it so who cares.    


Edit: I just municipalized slavery. WHY DIDN'T I DO THIS SOONER?!
Rather than paying those short-sighted, clueless twerps a premium to grow my army and replace overworked peasantry, I now simply invest a small chunk of my huge yearly earnings in the business and watch my forces grow at something like double the earlier speed.

Honestly, I think slavery might be a tad overpowered... I guess the player can probably gain popularity by outlawing it, but it hardly matters at this point in the game. Then again, it's still slow growing forces, and I probably still have nowhere near enough to stand a chance against the demons. We'll see.

[Huw2k8]

Wait when you take your champion back they don't return to you?

Hahaha, parades of goblins marching through the streets singing and dancing!

I recently nerfed slavery too, could look at pushing that a bit further but the plan in the end is to make the slavers much nastier and to have their slaves be people captured from your kingdom as well as all the others, so you might be hiring cheap troops but they are your people, alternatively perhaps you could pay a fee to have them leave your lands alone!

That mean we might later be hiring "slave dark troll cavemasters that are uncivilized and their civ don't talk to us" and "slave of nice good race that don't support slavery but they are strong as fuck"?

[MrWiggles]

So how do you improve relation with foreign powers? I want to trade with them. I also dont get how to vassalize anyone. All they say is, that they'll die to the last man. Kind make it tedious that I have to take them to the last land, or use them a source to gut for money.

[Huw2k8]

@MrWiggles, you can't vassalise a faction that hates you, once they've gone beyond a certain point of relation there is usually slim chance, Also it can depend on their ruler, if their ruler is a hostile personality they will also make it difficult, you can get around this by hiring an assassin and hoping the ruler who follows suit isn't such a dick!

@Omada, that would be pretty cool!
