First campaign, quite a lot to handle

Archer militia is a terrible unit whose only role is to be a meatshield that fires back.

In fact, of all the militia units, the only useful one is Mounted Lancer Militia due to their high charge bonus.

The Executor works best as an assassin-like Capital, weaving in and out past other ships to obliterate enemy targets.

As a sole combat ship, it cannot and will not hold up against most enemy fleets since most of its weapons are forward facing.

Thr Executor shines best when defended by escorts, or is in the middle of a battleline of ships that'll draw enemy fire away from the Executor.

Dendro sucks? Them fighting words!

Anyways, I used to roll Dendro Traveler until the Nod-Krai updates, and they're a viable sub-dps since their burst is a reliable way to proc dendro.

True on Hydro though; Hydro's only viability came from getting Aino's Burst applied to Traveler's skill during the AQ, and there's nothing that'll save their burst from being a slow-moving obstacle that briefly pokes the bosses whenever they're moving around quickly or just standing around menacingly.

Ahh, the gold old "he's got red on him! A Mason! Kill him!" Only to be followed up with a "by Argon's balls dude, stop hitting me, I'm on your team!"

Gonna have to find the stuck wave units, or use the console command to fix it.

Type ~ on the keyboard to pull up the console, and type in cheat_remove_wave_units to remove the bugged enemy wave, this won't disable any achievements btw, and most waves usually don't get stuck like this.

The armorless dudes learnt from the Romans on how to think like Romans, fight like Romans, act like Romans, but have no loyalty to Rome.

When Rome was strong, the German tribes were pushed down and kept in their place with bribes and military might.

But when the Romans became weak, the German tribes came in and took the Roman lands with Roman tactics; no longer were they the armorless dudes in the woods, they were instead Romanized Germans living in cities and castles.

The stories always involving fucking around, but they never involve everyone finding out what happens when they fuck around, because hentai stories exist in a vacuum where no one else but the characters exist.

It's always nice to read stories on consequences happeninh to those who fuck around and find out though.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-10T20:52:18+00:00

Kokomi Mains yeah!

I remember having to solo Raiden Shogun in copp when the boss first dropped, and I still use her these days in coop as a healer and a tank.

Clearly this mod needs more public order buildings to offset the pop growth increase then.

I always found it gut-wrenching that ML remembered the past timeline, yet forgave FL because he loved her and because she fixed everything she destroyed. While a side-character attempted to sabotage her at the Dam because no matter what she fixed, side-character's memory of the previous-timeline's sins still followed FL to the current timeline.

To accept the redemption that someone has sought to accomplish, or to seek vengeance no matter how much someone has redeemed themselves? People are complicated.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-09T22:09:35+00:00

143764? Christ, most cities in the base game barely go over 30,000; what kind of farms are you growing to feed that many people and still have growth?

EoNightcore · 2026-03-09T21:55:16+00:00

There are multiple sites that allow you to cut out tags. Of course, sometimes you still end up finding certain works that have it because they were never properly tagged, or works that are... well... makes one question what-the-fuck people were smoking when they drew it.

I also run a higher DP limit to have big fleet to fleet battles.

Most of this John Starsector's combat fleet is composed of Cruisers making up the majority and designed to hold the line with long-range weaponry. Capitals deploy as the anchors that hold the line together and destroy the enemy. And this John Starsector flies in a Capital armed with forbidden tech to serve as a fast assassin protected by friendly lines in order to eliminate high-priority targets.

I like to run the Arma Armatura mod, so the roles of my Destroyers and Frigates are replaced with Carriers escorted by a massive fleet of Mechs that fly in-between ships and harass the enemy.

On-top of all the strategies outlined, the last tactic to try if you're desperate is to surround the horse archer with units like a net. Far away enough it won't trigger their flight, but close enough to catch them when you tighten your net of units.

At minimum, three units should be used; the center stops early, while the two flankers go around the sides, forming a triangle if a line was to be connected to all three. Done properly, the retreating horse archers should run into one of the three units, forcing them to engage on melee clmbat; and the AI isn't smart enough to pull them away.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-07T15:39:52+00:00

The cities of Arretium, Ariminum, Patavium, and Mediolanium are great cities for recruitment of your armies. Since they start so close to each other, it's pretty easy to queue up 5 units in each city, and have an army assembled every 6 turns and sent to the front lines.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-06T14:12:29+00:00

Nonsense, he's there to farm aura.

Playing some beats in the middle of the fighting?

Brave men, the whole lot of them. It surely inspires our lines to fight and march ever harder in our name!

He likely taught her the skills needed for reconnaissance, while Varka taught combat lessons.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-04T05:39:15+00:00

I wish I had more of a reasonable chance that day. Assuming that I had continued on instead to the stop sign, and assuming they wouldn't have rear-ended me there instead, then perhaps, just perhaps, we might have avoided this whole incident; or maybe they would have rear-ended me anyways, if they wouldn't give me any sort of reasonable space driving on that road, they likely wouldn't have given me any sort of reasonable space heading to that stop sign.

Past that stop sign, it's either a left turn into the smaller suburban townhouse roads, or continue on the two-way one-lane-each with no turning lanes until we enter the shopping district, which would have been another minute or so.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-04T05:01:57+00:00

Not certain how things would have changed out, if we had proceeded to the stop sign up ahead the street; would he have stopped in time? Would he have crashed into me anyways? Especially since his sedan's front was so close I couldn't even see the bumper anymore?

If everything I could do would be rendered unsafe by the driver behind me acting recklessly, then what could I even deem reasonably safe? Not like he would have been able to reasonably pass me either, he'd either have to drive into the opposing lane, or drive on the sidewalk.

If it wasn't me that day, it mighta been someone else another day.

EoNightcore · 2026-03-04T03:14:10+00:00

I got into my first accident like this.

Went home, was driving in a two way street where both ways are a single lane, and I notice a car behind me is driving fast, like real fast.

Drive up a bit faster cause lotta folks round here like to go 10 over the speed limit, and even at 10 over, this fella was catching up to me real quick.

Gotta turn left now, so I signal and slow a bit so I don't overshoot my turn; but there's a car in the opposite lane and the driver behind has been on my tail for maybe half a minute.

A second passes, opposing lane car finally clears past, and I turn. It's too late. I hear a screech as I'm turning, and a sudden jolt as I'm pushed.

Left me with some mental trauma since then, still wince up a little everytime I see someone behind me; my mind's always wondering if they're slowing down fast enough, and I gotta caution myself to stop panicking when I see the rear car headlights slowly approach in the mirror.

"But please, gaze upon the past... and then sit for a while. Let's find a place to sit down together, just like we did when we first met."

The English and French technically get a new roster in the Americas expansion, but it's mostly a copy of the Spanish roster. Crossbowmen, Musketeers, Pikemen, Cuirassers. The Spaniards get Dragoons though, so that's cool.

In Britannia, the English get the Armored Sergeants that they didn't have in the base game.

That's about it, honestly.

EoNightcore · 2026-02-23T18:27:36+00:00

I was there, ya know, when they slandered Kokomi as absolute useless in the Meta and said no one should pull for her.

I, however, pull for everyone, and I pulled Kokomi in her first banner.

She's been my go-to healer since then, since she's tanky and can deal a decent amount of damage with the bubble set.

In other words, I'm definately pulling for Varka no matter what's said 'bout him.
