Thread: Governors and Generals

  1. #1

    Default Governors and Generals

    dd and Rep:

    You decided not to go with the governors and generals (ZappA's?) thing where you choose which career path? Just curious as to why? Does it conflict with the general's career trait system? Any thoughts? I enjoy it, but understand it might not fit with your overall plans.

    Thanks.

    BTW: as usual, you get the quasi-complaint/question.....obviously that question is asked from me during my facing east to worship at the altar of DLV!

    Actually i have not looked into it because this is not my area and i concentrated on other stuff.
    Splitting into generals and governors is not very medieval but from gameplay reasons they could be included.
    Actually the traits \ancilliary system is a little overbloated, needs a clean up because certain vanilla stuff is to much. We need to develop a stringent traits system from the ground, only some important logical coherent traits !
    I will look into the Zapppa and Oda Contribution to check it out !

    Good point on it not being medieval.....sometimes I guess we get hung on on gameplay and forget about what period we're playing!

    I'm not too fussed on it, not saying Zappa is a crap modder or anythin, in fact he's helped me with a few things, i just don't think you should have to choose between commander and governor, i believe there were plenty of medieval duke's were good commanders and governors.

    It's personnal preference, and not for me, i think it should be avaliable for download for those who want it, not compulsory with future versions of DLV.

    The Governor/General is nothing more than a little bonus. A 'Governor' can still make a great general.

    Anyway, I'll update the latest DLV file sometime. It's really easy to mod it in, so if anyone else can do it and post it, that would be good too.
