Mata, no.

The game seems nice.. I'm just having some problems to read its text even with ansi turned off.

@john Hello! Its still difficult.. I try to use the nvda+numpad keys but its.. Wonky to say the least.. If pocible, I need help..

I always just use NVDA's read lines commands. Just go up and down the terminal. Sometimes, you'll be moved to the end, so you'll have to go all the way to the top, but then sometimes you won't want to anyway, like after a battle, so it works out alright.

I'm having save loading issues. All the time. This is my second game and I can't load my save files. I always get told I have 2 extra variables and that it's a bug and to contact the developer on Reddit (I didn't think you could as I thought it was just lots of boards and subboards and all sorts of stuff).

I'm gutted... I was starting to get the hang of it and was starting to become a bit of a beast. But then I made the mistake of going to bed.

Anyone have any ideas? I'd rather not start again but if I have to I will.

A few things that came up whil discussin this game with a few (addicted as hell) friends...

1. For custom games, and this was in relation to mods and possible mods, let us completely go wild with customizing a game if we want, if we don't want rebels, or more bandits, or the AI to be more aggressive, let us do that.

For instance, w could in this example set up a game 6 kingdoms, 10 small kingdoms and 5 bandit groups then if idea #3 is implemented more, sit back and watch what happens.

2. More AI interactin with our kingdom. By that I mean I feel like nearly all of the trading and stuff is done from our side, one idea that got thrown around was to have AI rulers and lords and such have the ability to do stuff on their own, so for instance one small country could ally with a bandit group, or bandits could disband on their own, or AI lords could come to you with trade offers, vassalizing and offer you troops without you having to request it. That to me would be a huge, huge step to immersion.g

3. AI like/dislike ratings and effects. Everything the AI does should have an effect n relationships, right? Well what if, for instance, a bandit attack provoked an independent nation into all out war with that bandit group, or the AI rulers noticed you were being nice to their enemies and sent troops to your lands, or offered you gold as a bribe?

4. More use for battles. Instead of killing soldiers why not capture them, use them as slaves, or for lords or nobles, let us install them in our court if we choose, or let them live in our kingdom peacefully.

@Wastelander: Wow, there was a debug cheat for that already!

I've been trying to avoid using the cheat menu, partly because up until you posted that list, I didn't know the cheats, but partly because I worry temptation will get the better of me There's some really useful ones there though, even for making sure you get the right kind of start. Thanks!

There's still a little more customizability in changing the save files, I've currently got a pretty good Game of Thrones esque setup with the 5 independents as kingdoms with their correct names, leader names, backstories, descriptive types and unit names and made sure all of them were the same race of men, some had the psychoactive men and some were barbarians. I tweaked their growth rates to reflect their environments a little too. The IronBorn, for example, I've handicapped a little with a -5% growth rate, but slightly stronger peasants. I also chose to change the bandit group and mercenaries names and leaders accordingly too. And all in all I've got a pretty well-setup world. It's a fun game, too!

But, I'd rather do it in the debug menu if ever they come into there. Or certainly in any custom game setup if ever that feature makes it in.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm medalling too much.

Also, I have to let you know that I was playing another game of Warsim and I went to have a chat with the Demon Overlord when I was getting a little beat up. I actually asked him "What can I do for the cause?", and he told me to build him some big totems and conquer everything and yada yada. But after that, it was game over. I'm guessing he killed me for being too obsequious or something, but even so it didn't say. I'm not sure if this is a bug, thought you should know though.

@Wastelander: Sure! I hope no one judges me too much for the mod as it's still a work in progress . But I think it's fun.

It's not fully done yet, I haven't crafted the faction relationships yet and the nobility of the Iron Islands and the North are yet to be done as well. I'm also going to customize the exploration location names.

There's a couple of departures from cannan, I ended up starting out as a demon king, so thought Stannis was the one who might be seen as closest to a demon king due to his fanaticism for a foreign God. Granted, you have the ability to draft evil laws, which could be lots of fun, but probably don't suit his character, but I couldn't figure out where to tweak his alignment. So yeah, you're Stannis. Hence why you're on hard difficulty.

One of the races was mutants, so I decided to make them the Riverlands and explain the transformation in their backstory.

Feel free to give this a try and see what you guys think!

Thanks for taking an interest.

@truecraig, Love it, saving to to the side and will be working on a few little things to accomodate both making modding easier and allowing for more game of thrones like game play

First thing I've added is a debug code you can enable to stop mercenary groups randomly disbanding! will be working on some more stuff but good work!

@truecraig, Love the mod, will be working on some more stuff to make it more moddable! it's amazing

@firefly, I could definitely work on something like that for you at some point, and the kingdom discovery thing is definitely doable!
