Elder Kings 0.1.7 Developer Diary #4 - No One Bests an Orc!

Wonderful !

Seems interesting, might be worth a few plays. I'm gonna guess its going to come out after the 25th, Paradox and their 80 DLCs

I would suggest that Orcs not be allowed to build tribal holdings (holding them is fine). In my games every county owned by Orcs is full of castles. The ruler builds a cheap tribal holding, upgrades it to a castle and then builds a new tribal holding. I had to restart my Orc game recently because I wanted to build a temple in the one holy site owned by Orcs, but my vassal had filled the province before I could scheme it away from him.

Will orcs get new clothes in this version?

This. I'd like to at least see some Orc cloths based off the Morrowind, Oblivion, ESO, and Skyrim Orc sets.

I doubt going straight to removing Orc tribes would improve the game much. The solution probably lies in the requirements for an AI character (or all characters) to build a tribe/upgrade it. Orcs not being allowed to settle new areas within their domain and expanding them into proper holdings is anti-orcish.

These features are great, the orsimers deserve the love !

It should be real fun playing as one of them and wrecking havoc in Tamriel.

I was wondering how the mod was doing and stopped in, this is great! Orcs are my favorite race in the game and seeing all this flavor added to them is wonderful. Super pumped to play them and can't wait for more.

something I'm unsure of, when you finish founding orsinium will it be the one orc city allowed or is it just the title of your lands you get?

 

[Pro_Yankee]

Is there an estimate to how long the next update is coming out (unless an update has came out recently and i'm too stupid to find it)?

 

[Audiate]

I'm pretty sure "some time after Reaper's Due" is still and guaranteed true. It's best to be patient on these sorts of things.
