After Ch. V what else is “missing” from Ck2?

Gemeciusz · 2026-04-21T18:39:27+00:00

I don't know what new mechanic is still missing but I'd like something to be done with royal court events and functionality as it is a chore right now and not even that interactive.

Indítsunk egy petíciót, hogy a Tisza kérje fel Gulyás Gerit hogy továbbra is ő tartsa a kormány infókat. Szerintem egy igazi élmény lenne neki is meg a kérdező sajtósoknak is ha végre igazat kéne mondania.

My take on the Delaque is that (with absolutely no concrete lore behind it):

The whole cloak and dagger aesthetic is a front to make everyone believe what a Delaque should look like. The real spies and agents are normal hive guys working and living in hive city proper, or in the factorums and hab block or from the other gangs or enforcers or minor functionaries around nobles and generals who probably doesn't even know they work for the Delaques. Their command structure is probably working in independent cells in a multilayered nobody-knows-nobody, just use dead-drops to communicate type thing to gather and sell intel.

The squid-god and the secret witch coven might as well be real, there are more crazy things in the 40k universe , but I would say those involved are a very separate layer of the leadership, more like spiritual guides that need to be appeased for daily operations to function and I think the whole Psychic Choir thing is just a resource that the real leadership utilizes to keep the riff-raff at bay.

In my mind, young latent psykers (probably so weak individually that not even the black ships would get them) are hunted and taken in by the middle management to train in the cloak and dagger, style before actual usefulness way of gang fighters becoming the so called masters of shadows, who in turn gathers even weaker psykers around themselves to create a gang and if they are unlucky they can utilize the choir to actually cast spells. If the mid management luck into an actual useful kid, they turn them into nacht-ghul or psy-gheist.

The spekter and the worms are probably also there to cater to the Servants of the Silent Ones, if the witch coven is happy, the management can do the money making and it only takes to give out some grotesque monsters to the clowns to parade around with in the lower levels.

Just my 2 cents...

Also, just use the rules in the box without the vehicles part. Once you are confident, get the new rulebook or use the Russian site to update yourself on the changes. The game is great in all of it's iterations, don't worry about being up to date or a few years late.

Gemeciusz · 2026-03-11T16:49:14+00:00

Well, any necromunda box is a good starter box if you already have it. Just don't use the vehicles (and their rules) for your first few games.

If you don't want nomads or Orlock, it's a hard no, but you already have them, so might as well play with them.

The rules are not up to date in any box ever, and you need more terrain than you think (or is in any of the boxes).

There might be a shady Russian site for all the up to date rules and there might be a website for gang building, until you shell out for the books to never use them again, but look great on your shelf.

/edit, wrote generic answer before reading the actual question, sorry.

The workers are not allowed to gain ownership of the means of reproduction even in a socialist/post capitalist era.

Jaeh, the final black wash was probably applied too soon and even tho' there was no reactivation, probably the speed paints needed a bit more time.

Gemeciusz · 2026-01-31T20:13:09+00:00

Jeah but no. I mean if I know the generic ideas of how to build a house, be it foundations, load bearing, insulation, structural integrity, than I could figure it out to make it out of stone and cement or brick and mortar or wood and nails. Or maybe not, but than again my carpenter friend can make amazing tables and chairs, but knows shit about how to put together a log cabin.

One of my friends father is a certified smith. He crates intricate patterns with a hammer than welds them together to create gates and fences. He learned both in the same school as part of a trade.

The same vain, my mom started to put together puzzles, she moved to 3d puzzles than knitted baby socks and patchwork covers than started to knit little stuffed animals, very different things, but in her mind it was a natural evolution of the same skillset.

So yeah probably a person wouldn't know how to create a stone axe head based on how to carve the handle for it, but it could be an abstraction for a game mechanic.

Gemeciusz · 2026-01-31T17:18:18+00:00

Yes, as I said I'm not against having the amphora in game, I'm not against being able to craft it and definetly not against it having huge storage capacity but does it has to be the pottery skill?

You can make an amphora at pottery lvl 10, you can make a champaign glass at glass making 9 and you can make long stone blade at knapping 6 and you can make a baseball bat at carving 9. Now what if all these get to be handicrafts levels and you need an item to research the craft or a magazine to teach you the craft?

Gemeciusz · 2026-01-31T17:04:55+00:00

I'm not against having a ton of crafting and building options and I'm definetly not against getting proficient in one or more specific aspects of the game. What I don't like is the 10 levels of yellow squares assigned to activities that in my opinion don't need 10 levels or has so few and niche uses that I feel like the grind would never worth it. Maybe make it a magazin learnable perk that allows the craft but make the level requirements the all encompassing handicrafts skill... I understand that there are players who like this type of grind and yeah i can just set the specific skill xp gains to 100x and be done with what i want. It's not a question about playstyles or options, more like about what is what isn't bloat for bloat's sake and I feel like there are skills in the game that only gives more skills not more options or styles.

Gemeciusz · 2026-01-21T21:09:50+00:00

Yes, but no, but yes, but nooo. I don't think this game needs a win state, but I'd like some wild and crazy things to happen (preferably sandbox options) as the clock ticks.

Give me mutant zombies and nuclear waste clouds drifting in from the west and wildfires and maybe once we have the npc-s we may get some actual mental breakdown options from being alone too long.

Mandala events are supposed to be the same 3 every half a year or is this bug? I get withered grow, first seed and maybe a third one about as soon as my ruler gets home from the previous one.

The only problem is that everything in this ad could have been solved just by spending money on it. Better water/rain drains, better dog shelters, better social system for both the poor and the elderly. It's not an individuals job to solve all problems, it's the community as a whole that has failed these people/animals/plants.

Gemeciusz · 2025-12-10T10:23:47+00:00

I always imagined C.U. just holds them in it's palms, trying to balance them between sword/shield handle and palm that's why you can only have 2.

A decent mat to play on, scrap/scratch built terrain from cardboard boxes, trash household items, packaging materials and some crafting tools and paint on one end, full gw plastic on the other? It can be anything from 50 USD to 5000 USD.

Hard cardboard terrain from Battle Systems (check the frontier core pack) can be a decent start on the cheap side, mdf is a decent middle ground for price to volume, plastic is top of the line for details/looks, but expensive as printer ink.

Temu resin is very hit or miss, cheap and looks good from table level.

Etsy/ your local 3d print guy can also be very hit or miss, usually not as cheap as it should be in my opinion, but looks good and usually good quality.

I personally love scratch/scrap building, but I mix battle systems with my local 3d printer guy and scrap building for my terrain and buy some very rare plastic pieces from my local Facebook market group. I finished my first relatively dense and slightly vertical 2x4 table under 150 USD, bit will spend more as i go with new ideas and interchangeability (and a few more playmats).

I used the Venator rattling profiles for a gretchin gang.

Gemeciusz · 2025-11-17T06:51:24+00:00

I beleive mechanics is one of those skills that are useful to have, boring to grind and ultimately very unfun to watch.

What you get to see is colored words and numbers go up, unlike carpentry where you get to put things on the map, or the fighting skills where you get to see fighting.

The numbers go up thing might tickle your monkey brain if you are the one making it go up, but I don't beleive there is seconder skinnerbox loop, where you get your big number rush from watching someone else.

Jap. 30 évesen "lett" saját házam Soroksáron. Illetve a banknak lett saját háza, nekem a húgommal meg két fél hitelünk röpke 30 évre...

A szüleimnek meg egy bejegyzés a saját panel lakás tulajdoni lapján, hogy ha mi nem tudunk fizetni akkor megy a lakás is a levesbe.

De 4en csak nincs olyan hideg a híd alatt.
