Them Durned Traits

[Kruik]

So I recently came back to the game after waiting some months for the Parthian overhaul and general 1.0 version (looks and plays great, btw, very well done), and I quickly discovered to my dismay that the trait spam still remains. By the 2nd or 3rd battle, my general had Bit of a Claret (Parthian horse archers tend to wrack up a lot of casualties). By the 5th, he had Keen. From a game standpoint, they might be great, but from a RP perspective, having all my generals some kind of crazy just doesn't seem right. Is there any way to reduce it further? Rather ruins the experience for me, as silly as it seems.

It is possible to reduce the effects of the traits but as this is a game it is somewhat always possible for the player to take advantage of the system and create crazy generals and especially with horse archers (Done quite a few campaigns with Saka Rauka while testing so I know how awesome they can become).
There is in the future a plan to redo traits and other related stuff.
Many do implement roleplay to their generals to reduce the trait spam a little. If your general from the beginning as a trait that reduces his abilities as a general I dont tend to give him all these wicked traits like Ferocious warrior is he from the beginning was a coward.
So you can reduce the traits effects further with the PFM.

Vanilla is actually worse, if you can believe that Their negative traits flow in a constant stream now since Emperor Edition. Right now we have altered the triggers but that is all.

We are planning on a trait overhaul but it is quite complicated and will be a long term process. I am not sure if it will be in the next major update or not.

Next week I might be going through surgery ( the doctors are going to decide toady at 1:00 pm CEU )
Thus either way, I'll be home for a long time and have a deep look into this "traits" issue. I promise!
