Ogre Kingdoms Permanently Alter Province Capitols?

[spartan445]

So, I'm playing Grimgor's 'Ardboyz and running across various Ogre factions, and every faction capitol they've occupied has become a Minor Settlement. Is this permanent?

[zefyris]

Settlement's number of slot is faction dependant. The same settlement can have a higher number of slot when conquered by a different faction with no problems. Just be aware that some provinces capital ARE 4 slots regardless of who has them.

But anyway, if a settlement had for example usually 8 slots for greenskins, get captured by ogres and only has 4, then get captured by greenskins again; those greenskins will have access to tge 8 slots (provided they bring the settlement back to T5 obviously) regardless of it having belonged to ogres for a while.

There are settlements in the mountain zones that are 4-slot, even the capital.

No it’s not permanent.

Just like when Wood Elves take a minor settlement and it becomes a non-upgradable settlement with one slot. As soon as another faction captures it, it reverts to whatever it normally is.

[Father Ribs]

There are settlements in the Kislev region and in the Ogre mountains region that no matter who own the province, only has 4-slot capitals. IE in my current game, a Cathay faction has captured The Last Sky Castle settlement, and it is still 4 slots.

But yeah...ogres turn all settlements into 4 slot...until you root them out.

Like others say, don´t worry, the settlements aren´t ruined, they´re just naturally awful.
