Does it matter if a non-commander unit is insane?

Nope, zero effect. Just don't GOR them unless you want an insane commander.

Doesn't help me with the dozen I have alraeady GOR'd though. guess I need to designate a province as the Asylum, and send them all there until needed.

Too bad you can't rename provinces in play.

It's a sad day. All my Tartarians have shattered souls now, although hopefully the will carry out their previous orders. Then, it's off to Arkham Asylum for them.

Good point. This will encourage people to push Tarts into the field quickly. You don’t want to keep them in your back yard, so get them out into your enemies. “Oh, you pillaged the province you just captured? Oh well.” A more aggressive end game perhaps.

However, it will weaken them overall, as people who keep some in labs to cover the magic paths they did not have will now be running a higher risk. It will focus them as SC, rather than SC with possibilities in magic. Combine that with the direct reduction in usefulness of 25%, the losses due to insane orders that damage, the uncertainty cost of when it will strike and their overall value is going to decline a fair bit.

Let us see how it actually plays out.

They won't change your order in the coming turn. But later yeah. Too bad you cannot start a new temple construction when you see your tartarian with 'destroy temple' order.

Many of that things are not extremely bad when on enemy territory. Still best SCs for the money. A bit less useful in defence, but that's not their main role.

I think all of them get shattered souls, but it is the ones that the box turns red that will not take orders. Naturally, on my first turn, the pair I am most interested in moving are the ones that went all red…

Re: Tartarians in 3.17
 
Does pillaging even matter in the end game? Sure it's entertaining, but isn't gem economy more important than gold at that point?
