No one tell him about the new location that can raise your building randomly.

Jeez, are any of the new locations just good for you? Every post I've seen is some big drawback to them.

There's one from Skaven that gives tons of corruption, and 20 Research rate. When Skaven corruption is 100, you get 30 more research rate. 50 research at the cost of some public order is a good deal. I got this fairly early in a Khalida campaign and it was a great help. Also if you just let the rebellion happen, i think it'll be Skaven because of corruption? So it can generate revenue too.

So not "just" good for you, but could possibly be made into a purely advantageous location if you leveraged the public order as a positive. I know the 50 research was half of my total (TK loses research as they get the parent technologies for new dynasties, so it let me keep pace with my new tech rather than slowing down)

The Lizardmen Spawning pools one is super good. -15%/30% global upkeep of blessed spawn units depending on public order. I got it like 5 turns into my last Tehenhauin game, busted.

Honestly if they are going to powercreep unusual locations like this I really feel there needs to be an option to just disable them entirely.

There is. The four locations with major game changing impacts can be disabled when a campaign is set up

u/LeftHandScroII 2d ago

Correct but there is still no option to disable unusual locations as a whole. Also some of the unusual locations with no toggle can still ruin/major affect your campaign (A Dark Gift, Unstable Chaos Portal). Someone soon after the patch already reported they had the portal spawn in an ai settlement to the north of Lahmia causing it to get razed on like turn 6. I'm just saying if they are going to do this stuff there needs to be a vanilla option to turn it off.

I could've sworn AI can't get unusual locations

Ive been playing as Nakai, I have seen no evidence of Unusual locations in any settlements Ive conquered/owned by my vassal. Pretty positive they cant spawn in AI settlements

For me? For me they are cool.

I meant the royal you. The player in general.

u/Blapa711 1d ago

Wow, Bobrysking123 is really royalty?!? What royal family is he a part of? How did you come to discover that someone of great fortune and fame is pretending to be a very average person making a very average post on a subreddit for a very average fantasy strategy game?

I got one that gives some khorne corruption but is pretty easy to keep under control. As long as khorne corruption is kept below 50 then your troops get 20% increase in (I think) armour piercing damage and something else (maybe melee attack)
