Dreadful generals

**Darviathar** · October 26, 2009, 04:35 PM

It seems that every general that I ever involve in any combat becomes a blackguard! I realize that it may in reality be advantageous in combat against the computer and its huge morale bonuses, but I prefer my future faction leaders to be paragons of chivalry instead. The tendency to turn dreadful is far stronger in this mod than any other I've played, leading me to believe there is a value somewhere that has been changed. Can anyone tell me where, so that I can moderate it a bit?

Don't execute anyyone after a battle, don't use assassins and spies so much.. It's really quite easy to be paragon, even for generals. The reason that your soldiers are turning evil fast, is most likely because of the choices you've made.

If you tell us what traits they have it might be easier to say where it goes wrong.

I know how using assassins (which I almost never use, unless an npc assassin is skulking around) and to a lesser extent, spies. These severely impact the king. I am referring to what happens on the battlefield. Even in battles where I do not chase down and annihilate the retreating computer forces, I frequently get "dread points". I often get them in simmed battles as well. This isn't something you generally get in other mods, hence my belief that it is coded in somewhere, and can possibly be changed.
