Drunken soldier killing spree

[Diablik666]

A single guard killed 35+ civilians before he got stopped. I would suggest some sort of cap that stops such killing spree from happening again especially since I struggle with maintaining high amount of people and only get +2/3 a year plus +3 or more child birth.

For me that Problem would be solved if you lower your number of taverns. If it is the right amount (for me it's 1 for 200 People, if anyone know the exact number tell me pls), no one raged until now.

I don't use pubs for that very reason. I still brew the beer but I sell it all through the trader.

Hmm I have 5 taverns with 655 pop. I will take one out and see the difference. Non the less pops dying in fistfights are not an issue usually two or more will die but not 35+ from a single guy xD Thats why I call for a cap so he stops after 5 or even 2. Its a guard with bonus dmg from relics so civilians couldnt fight back maybe if relic buffs werent taken into consideration when in social fight maybe it will help...

Just like real life.

Really curious: what were the conditions when this happened? I have like 12+ taverns for 600+ ppl (or similar proportions in other runs) and drunken killing never happened. What must occur for drunken killing to happen?

It's fun, i have never ever had a fight, that is actually a thing ingame?

I have 4 pubs 1 per market place, i have atm 250 villagers.

Last playtrough i had 800 vilagers with the same 4 pubs. Never seen a fight,

i have been playing this game from it's EA release, seen lots of people wondering, but i have never had one myself. So you guys are doing something wrong.

Every week when someone brings this up it makes me smile, thanks for your post.

Pause game then select the soldier who is on rampage, send them to the nearest barracks, place combat flag down and the soldiers will kill the drunken maniac

Perhaps it happens more often when taverns are placed near barracks? I have one positioned like that and have had several cases.

I think it is the amount of taverns and how close it is to the next tavern....

Not if you ask me as even some tower guards tend to get drunk and get physical and some of them which I caught were nowhere close to tavern. Also I dont even remember if it was a barracks guard of tower guard so cant work around it...

Just out of interested, what is the happiness level of the village? If happiness is the right word, smiley faces.
I could be wrong, but people get drunk when they aren't happy and when that happens to guards/soldiers it gets funny.
If you have smiley faces and 100% happiness and people get drunk and lay waste to your villagers, it may be a bug or unintended occurrence.

Everyones super happy, got most at 100% or close to. Some stuff like battle ready and work effectiveness is at 120%. The least Ive got is 85% spirituality but I can only build a single temple so dunno how to fix it. Anyway doubt its the reason.

Shrines. Under the top building menu, where the market can be found.
+ Desirability and Spirituality.
When the click on the temple and shrines it tells you how many people they are servicing.
