Killing your own generals

[Lord Firkraag]

Is there any easy/fast way to kill your own generals, for example through a command? I am playing as Byzantium, and the first Emperor just dies too fast; his heir has no time to have sons of his own, so random people get the throne

As an aside, my campaign map is very slow... Any way to fix/lessen that? It doesn't happen when I am in my own region, but when I hover over central Europe, it lags.

Also, great mod

As far as I know there's no such command to that via console or anything. It can be done by scripts but that would only work for specific characters at the begining of the campaign. While testing NHA mod I have killed countless Generals, FLs and FHs and easiest way is to charge your General onto enemy spears, while doing that keep hitting "Rally" button to avoid routs.

In answer to your second query the lag is probably due largely to all the trees in Germany and their shadows. I found that when I removed campaign shadows it went away.
I dont think there is a command, though it would be good to have a way of killing off unloyal generals and stuff. the only way is to send them on suicidal attacks.

Oh right, I can confirm that, used to have some lag also before I turned off campaign shadows, they were pretty unnecessary anyway if you ask me. Campaign shadows effects lag greatly if you prefer to play without the fog of war.

kill_character "character_name" : kills a character with the given name

If that doesn´t work the next easiest solution is to send him on a suicide mission alone.

I think it works but no from the console but only campaign_script.txt never checked it in console.

console_command kill_character "El_Cid"

One can also send him in a boat alone and leave his fate in hands of Poseidon.

[Lord Firkraag]

Thanks about the shadows, I'll definitely try it.

What happens if you put said general on a boat and then disband the fleet?

I used the command on some lost Crusaders/Agents when they tried to go home but got stuck somewhere - at least i think i did that.

[Caesar Clivus]

Nothing, but your friendly neighbourhood pirates will be more than happy to dispatch him to the briney depths of davey jones' locker

[Lord Firkraag]

Jawsome, I'll try that. I have some near-dead ships and am at war with Genoa since they blocked one of my fleets a few turns ago.

I just group my old useless Generals together and attack enemy stacks both rebel and factions until the generals are dead.

I like to at least get some use out of those old farts before they die!

Bad karma

[ShadowKiller2000]

How is that bad karma? When others simply send them on a ship to die? At least they get to go down swinging in a blaze of glory serving their kingdom.

I think thats how on old General would want it.
