Questions & Answers

[The Argonaut]

Hi, longtime player of the mod but new to the forums so sorry if the is in the wrong place . I have three questions regarding version 2.0:

1. Did they change how inheriting artifacts works? When the mother of my heir died her artifacts (The Black Band and the Pentamagic Loop) did not go to him.
2. As holder of the Imperial Isle the option to raise the Imperial Guard no longer exists, is this a bug or intentional?
3. What happened to Aristocratic and Meritocratic law options?

Again sorry if this is in the wrong place I went over to the bug tracker and looked at the changelogs as well as listed bugs and I could not find anything.

New to the mod, got a few questions:

1. What precisely is Land Organisation?
2. I hold the Imperial Isle and notice that my available buildings in the White-Gold Tower and Fort Legion are different. Does this happen in other provinces?
3. Is being Dragonborn only about the good stats or are there other benefits?
4. I noticed that when my character was a Legendary Warrior he wore the standard soldiers outfit at all times instead of regular royal clothes. The Legendary Agent wore a hood. Is this intentional? If so, is there any way to change it? it seems a little silly to me that the (hopefully) future emperor of everything ever sits around in full armor or hooded robes in court.
5. How does the slavery system work?

1. What precisely is Land Organisation?

I believe its a multiplier to your total retinue

2. I hold the Imperial Isle and notice that my available buildings in the White-Gold Tower and Fort Legion are different. Does this happen in other provinces?

Adamantine tower in High Rock, Crystal Like Law in Alinor and Green Sap in Valenwood all have unique building chains, there are also scattered unique building around the place like the Skyforge in whiterun.

3. Is being Dragonborn only about the good stats or are there other benefits?

Not really apart from a few events, though it also gives all your decedents the dragonblood trait which is a much weaker version but nice to have.

5. How does the slavery system work?

When you attack a county when at war or raiding you will occasionally get events that lets you take slaves, these will add a positive modifier to your county's.

maybe i'm missing something but do custom rulers not adopt a race trait?

 

[Vercerotix]

If you have a nedic pantheon you can't have slaves.

I remember when it used to cover every ounce of Wales (Akavir) and most of Tamriel up to Yokunda, that isn't as bad as it used to get. One thing you can do though is get your family made commanders, have them lead armies, then flee with those armies to the ends of the earth ever 1 step ahead of the flu.

yeah the knahaten flu is utterly insane by canonical intention. it's what happens when 10 foot tall slugs with a necromancy fetish create a virus. it's the ultimate "hold my beer" sickness. other than fleeing to "anywhere but here" your only real option is to wait it out.

I once waged war with country struck by this flu. My armies were jumping between provinces to not geet cought by the flu. That attrition when flu got them was brrrrrrrr.

Be careful of the plague controls on your ships.

Why vampires can't join guilds? Is it bug or not?

 

[xdevilx2]

Alot of the Dunmer CoA ar just ?. Did I install something wrong or are those just not finished? I'm using the installer version of the mod.

 

[yundakkor]

How do you learn a class, i have sent my dunmer house leader, to the mages guild and picked the savant class, but its been several years and he hasnt gotten a trait yet.

No you're thinking of the Thrassian Plague, which also killed a bunch of people (like half of Tamriel or something). The Ols family of Anvil was started by a guy who helped lead the fleet that punished the sload for that little incident.

The Knahaten Flu on the other hand had no verified creators, though rumor has it the Argonians were behind it to kill off anyone who wasn't them in their swamps, since it did start in the one part of Argonia held by humans (Stormhold).

Why vampires can't join guilds? Is it bug or not?

That's a bug. I included checks to disable Undead characters from joining guilds but forgot to include another check that made vampires an exception to that. In any case I've uploaded a fix to the SVN version.

Alot of the Dunmer CoA ar just ?. Did I install something wrong or are those just not finished? I'm using the installer version of the mod.

Many CoAs are not yet complete. They probably won't be for quite some time just because of how much more important work there is and how some of us on the dev team (such as myself) are not particularly skilled in graphical work.

If you're playing with Historical Knahaten Flu, it will not affect any provinces in Akavir, Atmora, Roscrea, Pyandonea and Yokuda. Those are all safe places you can travel to if you wish.

If you convert to Cult of Peryite you can ask him to "bless" your lands with one of his diseases. Among other things, it gives affected provinces a gigantic boost to disease resistance.

Becoming a Lycanthrope and infecting family members with lycanthropy is an effective way to not die of illness. Lycanthropes are immune to disease but don't have the flaws of undead characters. Although the occasional transformation can be a problem.

If all else fails, play as an Argonian! They can't catch Knahaten Flu and are completely immune to its effects.

How do you learn a class, i have sent my dunmer house leader, to the mages guild and picked the savant class, but its been several years and he hasnt gotten a trait yet.

You're not doing anything wrong, but it takes much longer for members of long-lived races (Mer and Tsaesci for example) to improve their educations and pick up specializations. It's intended as a balancing feature to ensure that we don't just have a bunch of Legendary Warrior, Master Spellsword Master Crusader elves and snakes running around the map, destroying everything that stands in their way.

In my game with the 0.2.0 version orgnums realm was conquered by another maormer real using a prepared invasion. He was then imprisoned and executed. I remember that there was an event that fired that caused some pyandoneiac provinces and characters to convert to the post orgnumic thought, but in this game this did not happen. Was that event removed or was this a bug?

 

[SovereignGrave]

Just curious, is the Mane coded to be suicidally aggressive in regard to Elsewyr? Because in my current game I started as the King of the Rim and managed to completely conquer Elsewyr and declare myself High King. So the Mane is reduced to a single county in Valenwood, but every so often he'll declare war on me despite the fact that I'm peaceful and stable and my troops outnumber him nearly 10:1. And I just find it a tad odd that the AI would do that unless specifically coded to.

EDIT: And is there any way at all to get courtiers of a different race and religion? Because I want to conquer Valenwood, but I don't want to but Khajiit in charge and watch them slowly convert the Convert to Alkosh; I'd rather have actual Bosmer in charge as my vassals.

 

[Mr. Habba]

So, I have a question regarding Guilds and Atmora/Roscrea.

The relevant dev diary states that these places are to far away and to sparsely populated to have any guilds - which is reasonable - but the AI up there is constantly away doing guild work. It's not like it's a big thing, but I'd like to know if this is a bug or if I - as player in Atmora - am missing something.

The second question I have concerns the training of your off-spring. In said dev-diary it is mentioned that your children/courtiers can petition you to join a guild. Is this possible for Atmorans or are they completely locked out of anything guild-related as long as they don't move south?

Related bonus question: is there any way to 'revive' the Dragon Cult when the Frozen Hordes goes Ideal Masters?

Hi I'm on my first play through and everything seems great except for one thing every few in game days I get events about skeever infestations, bandits etc this is happening in all my counties over and over again. Not sure if this is normal or a bug thanks.
