Mod: Ogre Kingdoms - MA Warhammer Nation - 0.9 minor update

[llamabeast]

Gosh, lots of posts since I started testing.

If you don't mind it Divine Blessing, then it probably isn't horrible for it to do a couple of smites either, so long as it doesn't keep smiting all battle. So giving it 99 encumbrance might be the best option.

If you give it negative reinvig then its fatigue keeps on growing without limit (far beyond 200), but does it no actual damage. So that's an option, but it's displeasing to me.

You could try setting smite to 99 precision. I personally would not be too keen on that, because it means the mod is changing things which are outside of its supposed sphere of influence. I think precision 100 actually means something special (always hit the target, or perhaps only always hit the target square), so 99 is qualitatively different. Also, do you think it would actually stop it casting it? It won't have much else to do.

99 encumbrance might be justifiable thematically. Say the energies building up in the pit all can be released in spells at the start of a battle but are soon exhausted.

I believe, though I may be wrong, that once you have 0 prec (due to being blinded for instance) you can /only/ cast 100 prec stuff. So I wanted to set the mawpit to 0 prec to stop him casting anything but divine bless, which would be 100 prec. At 99 prec smite would still hit 99.9999999999999% of the time, but you're right it would be slightly different.

I don't mind them smiting that much I guess, it just seems like it could be quite annoying. I'm trying to make them something you want 1 of in several provinces but never have any reason to have more than 1 of in a province. So no slave generation, no preaching, no domspread, no banish spam,... smite,.. maybe isn't a big problem. 99 enc is fine with me for that reason.

Hmm. Can you have a #onebattlespell that provides a penalty to magic levels, like (foo) power but in reverse?

[llamabeast]

I was wondering that Gregstrom, but I don't think you can.

Burn, good thinking. I'd test it now but I'm just leaving to go away for a couple of days. I might have a go when I get back, because having an effective "battle form" (via onebattlespell Kill Self and a secondshape) would be a handy thing generally.

Which looks better - with Gnoblar or without? Yes, that's a chef's hat.

With the Gnoblar, please! Glad to see Ogres getting some (more) love.

I was able to start a game fine. Sounds like a mod conflict. Perhaps it's the Magic Site mod? Holy War: Divine also adds some magic sites.

Also if you play with the Lizardmen mod and the Ogres, they share a startsite number so you'll have the error with both mods enabled at once.

With gnoblar!
