Just captured a Nightmare.

I've been using the "Impatience Overhaul" mod over on Nexus, which gives you the ability to craft Bolas, which can capture anything (careful, some things will break the game if captured). I just caught a Nightmare. what a freaky beast. Was actually after a couple of ghost bears, which have a perfectly fine leveling plan just like a normal bear. Nightmares do not have a leveling plan though; you can still put points into stats. Kinda like a creeper, but more powerful.

I don't like these kinds of mods. But what is the purpose of animals?
The fights don't go to a second round. I have a Spearman/Warrior Officer and two AoE archers, and I basically kill 18-20 units in three turns with 3 fighters. The rest of the party doesn't even move. To be on the safe side, I have an assassin who finishes off the rest with a skill that refreshes when killed.

I think with nightmare in your team, your moral is really bad no ?
And I din't know you need a mod, I think you can capture one with the vanilla game.

you can, but it requires the chains you get from a quest, and you don't get to keep it. with the mod, I can keep it. I have a ton of boosts to morale, so I didn't even notice any downs from the nightmare. I'll take a closer look.

"what is the purpose of animals?"

it's called fun? surely you've heard of the word?

Ah okay, thank you. I didn't remember you can not keep it. Yes, check your moral please and let me know.

nope no moral dump. either disabled by the mod, or it was a feature of the specific mission that lets you capture them with the special chains maybe? cheers.
