    Thanks for the feedback!

    I'll have to nerf it more in the upcoming patch, already did it twice but apparently it's not enough




    Edit: Patch 1.1 is out & changelog updated!

    Just downloaded updated version. Carthage seems fine but Rome still can be my tributary for free without any effort.

    Ah fair enough! I take it the issue with the hoplite formation is how the AI makes hoplites clip into the middle of other units?

    I also remember being able to satrapy Rome as Seleucids in my 1.1 playthrough which was using the normal DeI diplomacy tables the moment I discovered them. Next update I'll use their current table for vassalage (tributary), it should make getting tributaries through diplomacy quite harder but won't eliminate the problem completely.
    It's difficult to find that sweet spot to allow players to form tributaries, but avoid the "snowballing" effect when you're as big as your kingdom is on your screenshot (since the game counts tributaries as part of your kingdom when taking diplomatic actions into account). I guess in the end we should blame CA for not giving enough variables at our disposal to tweak things better in this regard.

    Yes and their swords being super effective in comparison to their spears when in formation, didn't make sense to me balance-wise.

    Yes, I've only changed the variables for the normal difficulty. This is so that players can play coop/head-to-head with our very hard campaign settings and normal battles. CA didn't make it possible to pick both CAI difficulty and BAI difficulty separately in multiplayer.

    If you pick hard/very hard, it will still be easier than DV's "normal".



    Edit: Updated 4TPY & 12TPY with correct historical event triggers and reforms.

    Hey...which is the colum in the pack file manager, where i can change the public order penalities...? I understand that this is a way to increase the diffculty for the player by spawning rebel armies cause the ai opponents are ...But later in game its simply enerving throughout i am using patrols, generals skills for public ordner... Otherwise: great mod.

    Hello!

    I actually already nerfed it a bit in the new update so I totally agree that it was slightly over the top!

    To edit it yourself go to db -> campaign_variables_tables -> DeI_campaign_variables -> x_x_x_public_order_reduction (for the type of action you want it changed for).

    Thanks to the report of a player (Big MT), we found that some factions couldn't recruit all the units in their roster due to a military_group change we were unaware of that occured in the main DeI mod. Should all work now!

    Congratulations as well, Ygraine!

    Sorry, still didn't have time to test 4TPY for a long campaing, but the values seemed reasonable and balanced

    Thanks everyone!


    @jdofo Let me know how it works out!

    About todays DeI update & crashing/freezing:

    With 1.2.1b out for DeI it means that you won't be able to get past the loading screen with DV since we have to make the mod compatible with the update. It will be fixed soon (today)!

    To avoid this issues in the future, I recommend using the stand-alone version of Divide Et Impera here on twcenter, since then no auto update will break your game and you can safely update it manually when DV is compatible with the latest patch.




    I'm currently halfway done with the dlc campaigns (HatG, CiG and MW) startpos-files which means soon you'll have the same start in those campaigns as in the grand campaign.

    Apologies for the slow update rate, took a while to find the db-tables that were causing the loop at starting the game. Once we did, we decided to add our new mini campaign changes along with it. You can now properly enjoy the mini campaigns with the correct starting treasury, removed client states, removed pre-techs and other fixes.


    @Greek Strategos

    They expand pretty well, both of them.

    In my current Mithridatic campaign Rome has whole Italy, Apollonia, Thessalia, whole Illyria, Corsica, whole Cisalpinia and parts of Narbonensis (Provincia etc). Sparta and Athens confederated into Greek City-States and are trying to hold them back. As for Carthage, in one of my recent campaigns they conquered whole east coast of Iberia and made Lusitani and some other tribe their tributary states. It seems the Iberian tribes can't dominate Carthage as easily any more and you will probably not see any Turdetanis or Arevacis conquering western Africa.

    I think the tributary system really changes the playing field, and in expanding the confederation options for many factions it also added another layer of RNG to the campaigns.
