I legit wish that one of the heroquests in this game was "Urox kills some chaos" and every stage was "There's a chaos beast. Do you fight it? Yes/no"

Drakenel posted:That may be, but she's useful for sacrificing your useless rear end nobles. Honestly, I don't ever recall them getting up in your grill too much aside from the occassional raid. Maybe I'm just incredibly lucky That's fixed in this version I heard. Do it too much and you'll get an apocalypse event.

Orlanth performed the feats Ernalda asked of him alone (I think), so that's the way All Marriages Should Be Done.

Sacrifice 10-15 goods to Nevala. And, just so everybody knows, in the steam version of the game, sheep events in this game are a little weird, because sheep aren't treated as a true resource like they were in the original version. Whatever the game claims happens to our sheep will happen to our cows instead.

Puistokemisti posted:
Sheep are still silently tracked on the farming screen, but they aren't reported on the bottom bar, and you don't have to sacrifice them to shrines anymore. It's mostly because sheep never did anything in the original version besides overflow and give you a negative number so all your shrines went away. The exchange rate between sheep and cows isn't 1:1 in these events, so even in the worst case we won't be losing hundreds of cows, I don't think.

I'm guessing from that that you always have exactly twice as many pigs and sheep as cows, so the event is really saying "90 cows are sick", though who knows with this game honestly.

Is that magic assignment final? If not, do a heroquest. e: If it is, get Ernalda's bless crops blessing and raid some poor fuckers into the ground.

The heroic babies omen is super cool to get early. Hopefully the thread remembers to remind you to check the noble pool 18 years from now.

If a farmer wakes up and all his cows are pregnant, he's been blessed by Uralda. If his bulls are pregnant too, he has a minor broo infestation. If his stead, boundary stones, and plow are pregnant, he has a bad broo infestation. Basically, broos suck. Go campaigning. cheetah7071 fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Aug 7, 2015 |

my dad posted:However, if Infinitum does the heroquests on his own, I'd highly encourage him to read the relevant myth carefully before starting it. There's currently a really unfortunate bug where every myth displays the "partially complete" version regardless of how many secrets you actually know.

Jimmy4400nav posted:So quick question, if I were in the market to get this game ,should I get the GOG version or Steam version? I actually think the gog version is superior. Here's the advantages and disadvantages of each version: Gog: +larger noble pool, so you get more cool ones +better interface actually designed for PC, not for tablet +can easily savescum if that's up your alley +can have multiple saves going simultaneously -missing some new events -a few bugs (sheep overflow, omens asking you to learn Urox blessings when you know them all already) -have to manually manage crafters and crop distribution Steam: +new events +automatically manages some of the more fiddly aspects -tiny noble pool so it's easy to get into a situation where you don't even have 7 unique gods represented, or only have 3 or 4 nobles who aren't poo poo -annoying interface, especially when managing nobles; particularly egregious is that the default emissary option is "demand tribute" -a few bugs of its own (you can't select "no" in any yes/no event decision, it shows the mid-level myth lore even if you don't know the story, or if you know the full details)

This event is why it's theoretically optimal (though incredibly tedious) to record the details of all of those little "X clan has a new chief" messages. Two clan members giving us info is pretty good odds, so tell them what they want to know.

Feed them then consider learning some of Uralda's mysteries. If I understand the event logic from this game, she isn't a fan of us right now, which probably will make our herds suffer until we fix it.

If I had to guess (I've never actually seen this event), asking them how to honor Uralda will probably only make it so our sacrifices are more likely to reach her, which is fairly useless since you can just bling her out with more silver.

Infinitum posted:They refer to the options that a clan-ring member recommends. Also note that the advice isn't always cut-and-dried. Your lawspeaker's "recommendations" will be about what is legal not what's a good idea. Your warleader will tell you whether or not he thinks you can win, not whether you should fight. my dad posted:A Humakti, an Uroxi, and a Vingan get drunk in a bar. The Uroxi throws his axe, the Vingan shouts "Duck!" and the Humakti says "Yes?" Excuse me Humakt isn't a duck, he's a human wearing a fake duck beak, Get your facts straight.

Mechanical Ape posted:Let's wait another year to heroquest, and try to build our magic stock a bit before then. Luckily our Spirit Fetches will help with that! I believe everything on the "relations" screen is affected by diplomacy and everything on the "trade" screen is affected by trade.

Fun fact, each hero quest has a season or two it's most likely to succeed in. See if you can figure them out!

I wonder what start you need to seduce the dark woman, I see it fail like 30% of the time. Women trying to seduce the dark man seem to fail a lot more.

Do we have any of the Glorantha lore heavyweights in this thread? It'd be nice to have effortposts about the harder to understand aspects of the setting, like heroquests, and I only consider myself barely qualified to do them (though I will if there's nobody actually qualified).

Jenx posted:Well, what would you want to know about them? Since talking about just "heroquests" in general will lead us nowhere. Either that or the thread will end up looking like Arcane Lore, one of the more esoteric Stafford Library books (and that's saying something). I just assumed that Illuminati or other newbies in the thread would want to know what exactly is going on during a heroquest. I know it blew my mind when someone actually explained it (in Haifisch's LP I think), since it was way cooler than what I was able to pick up on in-game.

Duckbag posted:Now, I've never played this game and don't know how anything works, but am I right in thinking that trading away 16 horses is kind of terrible? Depends, really. The only use horses have is that weaponthanes ride them. They do (usually) die when your thanes do, but you capture them pretty frequently on raids. I've never had to worry about horses when I wasn't in a death spiral, and not worrying about them is the same as saying you have a safe buffer you can trade away.

Eurmal brought death into the world, and chaos with it, but he was also one of the lightbringers who fixed the world when it was broken. The best thing I've heard for explaining how normal people view this vaguely contradictory poo poo is "When Orlanthi and Dara Happans fight, it is because Orlanth and Yelm fought. When Orlanthi and Dara Happans make peace, it is because Orlanth and Yelm made peace." Basically, the myths tell you multiple things about the gods. They're all true, just roll with it.

You should be able to see the games description of that event from the Lore screen. There's a bunch of historical events that provide context to the Orlanthi of Dragon Pass there.
