    Default Many star general but afraid of blood!

    So, what should I do? He's like 16 and has the 5-star born to conquer trait and another star somehow, but he's a pansy when it comes to blood and is sick a lot. Maybe if I max chiv...

    That is funny, just use him like any other general and he will turn into a blood crazed maniac.

    He has soldiers perform his tactical genius for him, while he sits in the back and watches.

    Ok, now all I have to do is remember which campaign he's in...

    I had a general like that, with the same trait, who had the nickname the killer because he had so many dread.

    I suggest just use him. In all my campaigns I have never really bothered about the traits my generals have. I win the battles not my generals. As long as they don't desert I am fine.
    Officer to a soldier who refuses to fight: There three types of soldiers who don't have to fight. They are called KIA, MIA and POW and you are not one of them.

    Tosa will be missed.

    I have general like that too. He still gets the job done though. They way I see it, if he still manages to good job at killing the enemy and commanding my troops, he is allowed to have a few eccentricities.

    Another one that is funny is when they are called "unmanly"

    There should have been more scripting to make certain traits incompatible with eachother and traits which can be sorted out. For example, if you have a disloyal general and he wins a heroic victory then it should be removed, or go to "speaks of loyalty" or "loyal" because even though he could have just abandoned his nation he chose to fight it out. Another example could be that if a general gets to a certain level of loyalty, disloyalty traits should be removed or if a general has chivalrous traits then the dread traits should be cancelled (50/50 chance of this being the other way) because having someone be <insert chivalrous trait> but then <insert dread trait> doesn't make sense unless they have a split personality.

    Meet Count Gilio the Crusader, the Chivalrous, the Scarred, the Champion. Leader of the First Crusade, conquerer of Jerusalem and the Levant, Scourge of the Mongol Horde, a 10-star general as Chivalrous as Robin Hood and as Pious as Christ himself, impervious to any and all mortal blows.

    After successfully and convincingly defending against a Mongol Night attack, I was shocked to see that this veritable demi-God had inexplicably developed the "Afraid of the Dark" trait. Somehow, this virtuoso of the battlefield is now gripped by the fear that something horrible will come out of the night to slay him.

    Go figure.

    Best thing to do with odd traited generals . . . Make them face their fears so run him straight into the enemy regardless of what happens. Because if he lives he will have great traits.

    Made me laugh, such a stupid trait system we have here. Maybe play around with a few mods/files to edit out the dumb traits and add in some new ones.

    Ahhh... I suppose in a funny it's true to life. Attilla the Hun died throwing up his own innards after a particularly raucus drinking party. Hitler was a vegitarian, and Margaret Thatcher took elocution lessons to cover up her intolerably shrill voice. Julius Ceasar was an epileptic, and was so vain that he individually plucked every hair off his body!

    Such a rich tapestry we weave.

    Yeah that too, although it shows that the war has achieved some measure of democracy, when a citizen can throw his shoe at a head of state and not be killed on the spot. Just the fact that the threw the shoe is testament enough.
