Harder Empire and Dwarven campaigns

[tgoodenow]

I enjoy playing Dwarven or Empire factions the most so I combined some mods to make the campaign much harder when playing as those factions.

My goals for this combo of mods were:
-Slower overall expansion for human player owing to need to defend settlements from invading enemies
-Better AI building decisions
-Increase strength of horde factions (particularly beast men and orc hordes) and stronger evil faction
-Old school sandbox experience where random factions may come to power
-Removal of vanilla greenskin, dwarf, empire confederation spam
-Possibility to trade with Kislev

Examples of campaign experience (all same campaign):
Turn 6: Skullsmashers attack recently conquered Eilhart


Turn 22: Orc armies on three different fronts


Turn 23: Extent of enemy orc expansion in the West


Turn 33: The Zhufbar empire vs everyone


Turn 33: Skulltakers and Crooked moon circling Grunburg




So as Empire you will face attacks for the first ~30 turns from Redhorn(not always), regular Beastmen (not always), Crooked moon, Skullsmashers, and Skulltakerz.

As Clan Angrund you deal with Broken Nose, Crooked moon mutinous gits, Crooked moon, and Skulltakerz.

I haven't played as other dwarf faction so I don't know what that's like. Clan Angrund is definitely hardest one owing to increased upkeep.

You can also add additional mods like tier 4 settlements, RoR (vanilla), etc. but these are the main ones needed to have the same campaign experience as example pictures. I play on Very Hard campaign AI/normal battle AI

TL;DR: Combine above mods for a much harder Dwarven or Empire campaign
