BGR-V 20150324. Byg's Grim Reality (Supply & Command Series): Guides, Updates & Optional Extras

[Jurand of Cracow]

I've played it just one time years ago, so I cannot tell anything.
And I got a bit sceptical about the BGR mechanisms, you may read my opinions here.

[Kilgore Trout]

Yes, in BGRV cities and castles have the same recruitment pools, but you can only recruit high level units in your capital, therefore either a city or a castle may be your capital.

I have tried many different mods, but I much prefer BGRV to anything else.

1. The fact that mounted knights cost four recruitment pool points and you are likely to get only 14 to 24 recruitment pool points every 12 turns makes them so much more dear and makes it so much more vital to preserve them in battle. Just having them be more expensive or less available as in other mods is not nearly enough. In BGRV, you have to choose between recruiting 4 local or militia units or one mounted knight. It makes for much more intriguing choices.

2. In BGRV your generals age at one year per 12 turns. This means that your starting family tree will stay alive for much of the game, and you will have only two or at most three generations from beginning to end. This really gives one time to become familiar with and feel attached to one's quite small and therefore precious royal family.

The only real drawbacks are that it is quite confusing much of the time trying to figure out why you sometimes can't recruit the upper tier units as there are of number of possible reasons. Also, since the buildings no longer effect the recruitment pool, castles actually become unnecessary (though I play with the house rule that as the AI doesn't convert castles to cities, neither can I), nor does one really need to build any of the recruitment line of buildings (other than for the fairly irrelevant experience points). And finally, the constant transferring of the various ancillaries that your king and heir, war councilors and administrators need in order to recruit, build, or go on offensive campaign, especially if one of them is assassinated or dies in battle or of the plague, requires a lot of micro-management. However, I believe that all of the trouble is well worth it.

Finally, I would only caution against using the BGRV No Mercy AI, as this is an extremely backstabbing and human hating AI, and this coupled with fact that you are always the vastly weaker player in the early part of the game due to the extremely limited number of units you are able to recruit can make for a very frustrating experience as you will be hunted and dog-piled mercilessly. Any other AI is much preferable, especially for a BGRV novice.

Given the fact that the castles in BGRV have almost lost their main meaning, I did not play it. A preferred BGR IV

So you could convert a lot of castles into cities (to boost the economy), but you didn't do it because AI doesn't do it. I think this is a big drawback of BGRV

[Black_Serpent]

There is another bug / feature that I found in BGRV. If the hiring pool is zero, you can hire any unit in each city with a General every turn.

[Kilgore Trout]

After all this time playing BGRV, I hadn't quite figured out what that problem was all about yet. Thanks for the info! Now that you are apparently playing a fair bit of BGRV, how do you like it so far?

Also, I don't convert castles to cities no matter what mod I play, as the AI doesn't do it.

[Larsel]

Hi, i got a 2 questions for somebody with modding experience.
My first question is how to change the manpower requirements of units (i want to make the system based on a 3 point scale instead of 4)?
And secondly, the 12 turns per year system makes family members come of age only after some 150 turns. This is too long for my taste and playstyle.
So is there any way to keep the 12 turn per year system but make child family members come of age sooner than 150+ turns, like having them being "born" as teenagers?

[Kilgore Trout]

Here is the way I do it in descr_strat in the BGRV sub campaign. I use my own chosen names, so I have to mess with a few other names files, but you can just use vanilla names from the proper faction from the descr_names.txt. Be sure to make the leader at least 16 years older than his oldest son, and I think you have to put the sons in descending order of age if they are already 14 or older. I just have the one son - Ulysses - of age at the start as it is too expensive using BGRV to have to many family members of age at the start. I also have removed other starting named characters (generals) as they also require funding using BGRV.

In the campaign_script in BGRV sub campaign, manipulate these entries, though I am not sure exactly how would be best. If it were me, I think I would start by leaving the entry for Manpower Cost 4, and just moving all the units I wanted to make manpower cost of 3 to Manpower Cost 3. Same for the manpower cost 3 units that I wanted to make manpower cost 2. And for the manpower cost 2 units that you want to make manpower cost 1, just remove them from entirely as units listed as manpower cost of 1 seemingly don't need to be listed at all.

[Larsel]

thank you for the reply my man. I am not sure if I understand your solution to the "coming of age" problem. I want family members born throughout the campaign to be 'born' as 12/13 years old (assuming they come of age at 14 years old.

And in case you are wondering i devalued all units by 1, using the method you proposed, with some exceptions that should reflect economic progression. These are the units I kept at the original man power level:

- All gunpowder units
- All spear wall units
- Heavy archers
- ottoman archers
- french foot archers
- arbalasters
- pesante archers
- yeoman archers
- retinue longbowmen
- viking huskarls
- obudshaer
- ducal axe infantry
- lithuanian regular spearmen
- knechten
- italian cavalry militia
- scoutatoi
- stratiotae
- scholarii
- gendarmes
- gothic knights
- genoese patricians
- polish guards
- armored horse archers

And then I have some units I am uncertain should receive 1 manpower reduction or not:
- grenadine jinetes
- magyar cavalry
- turkoman cavalry
- merchant cavalry militia

And then I also have 1 unit I think should get a manpower nerf:
- aldari druzhina (alani)

Finally I have some units I think should get an extra manpower buff, that is decrease their manpower level by 2 instead of 1:
- Miles
- st. lazarus knights
- knights of jerusalem
- templar confrere knights

I hope this will make the mod more interesting by breaking down the spearmen/best 1 manpower faction infantry and mounted sergeants/best 1 manpower cavalry meta.
Would love me some input if possible.

edit: I did as suggested but with no effect. Need advice

[Kilgore Trout]

I'm pretty certain that what you are asking about the family members cannot be done.

[Larsel]

That is something I will have to live with then. It is a minor concern anyway.
But do you have any idea as to why your suggestion of changing the manpower system does not work?
I have double checked I did it correctly. I started a new campaign. I ran the ss-setup and reselected bgrv. But without success.
Can you make it work yourself?

[Kilgore Trout]

There may be another step necessary that I am now aware of. The easiest thing to do would be to change the following entries in the same file, though it is not exactly what you wanted to do:

monitor_event SettlementTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_EventCounter distribution = 1
console_command add_money -200
end_monitor
monitor_event SettlementTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_EventCounter distribution = 2
console_command add_money -400
end_monitor
monitor_event SettlementTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_EventCounter distribution = 3
console_command add_money -600
end_monitor
monitor_event SettlementTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_EventCounter distribution = 4
console_command add_money -800
end_monitor

You can lower the manpower costs to you liking, perhaps -100, -200, -300, -400. This will make it much less expensive to recruit 4 manpower cost units. If you change the costs, the changes will not show up when you press f4 on the manpower pool replenishment turn (13, 25, 37, etc), but they will take effect and reduce the cost as intended.

[Larsel]

The manpower costs are irrelevant to me. I am only concerned about re-balancing the manpower costs of units.
Can this even be done then?

[Kilgore Trout]

I thought that maybe I made it work when I changed just one unit from a cost of 2 to a cost of 1 by simply removing it, but I'm not really too sure (and now I do in fact believe that there must be another step necessary which I am not yet aware of). However, if that alone does work, be aware that units will still be listed in the export-units.text file as costing the same amount of manpower as BYG originally intended as you did not change anything in that file. The only way to test it would be to recruit that unit and see to what degree it reduces your available manpower pool. I prefer simply changing the recruitment replenishment costs as I mentioned just above.

[Larsel]

you were correct. The manpower display does not correspond to the real manpower cost after modifying the entries mentioned above.
I gotta say, it is much more enjoyable to play bgrv with the unit variety a more balanced (imo) manpower system brings.
Thanks for your service!

[Elendil 03]

Does anyone have access to a version of BGR that can be implemented into other mods? All the links seem to be dead.

[Pegassos]

Hi everyone! I would like to ask you, this mod in in the SS mod or we must to download it separately? Thank you!

[Der Böse Wolf]

Hi everyone! I would like to ask you, this mod in in the SS mod or we must to download it separately? Thank you!

You must DL seoarately if you want BGR V.
In SS you have BGR II and IV only.

[waeq17]

I'm aware that BGR V is not compatible with SSHIP, but is BGR IV?

Much appreciation to everyone responsible for Stainless Steel, BGR and SSHIP!

You guys make this game and community flourish.
