Game Options: Disable Reclaim Party

[Calimar_T]

Hi,
Title says it all. We have a Game Option to disable Raids, can we have a Game Option to disable Reclaim Parties? So that if we manage to free a Village, it stays free without intervention?
Thanks :)

there is only one reclemationparty every 3 days no mater how much villages you liberate. Only the size of this Party change with ever aditional liberation

So, either lower the Reclamation frequency (as in, every 10 days or so) or - the Game Option where we can disable the Reclamation party alltogether (may let it try to reclaim it once, but then...)

[RandyBobandy]

Size and quality changes - after everything liberated now I got almost all dudes with kite shields and plate armour... Tried to trap them inside HQ by building toilet in gate area but eventually they somehow clip through... Also creating some settlement buildings and settling people there does not stop the spawns of either HQ guards with lord Assburn or recreation parties...

[Calimar_T]

Jep, hence the Question for that Game Option. Maybe it will be more balanced in the Future, but a Game Option to disable it (or to set the frequency) would solve a lot of issues.

As far as i know, yes, every 3 days. I don't know about the Villagers to arm and defend themselves...

Every 3 days??? That sounds like a pain in the ass and makes me NOT want to claim, then have to babysitter the villages.

[Calimar_T]

People also said, you can just liberate it, recruit whoever you want and let them just be reclaimed. Technically ok, from an RP standpoint... not so much. Game Option, please :)

Maybe not disable the reclamation party but space it out would be nice Having the ability to choose to have one each 10 or 15 days would be nice. I think each 3-4 days is too much.

[Harric]

I tend to agree with an option similar to normal bandit raids.
Then everybody can play the style they like and adjust difficulty.

I haven't bought a single strap. I get them from dead bandits.
Let the helpers work in the daytime and fight at night.

This is nuts. Getting 2 reclamation parties per day going in different directions. It takes so long to prep my villagers with food and weapons so they don't just run away on the 20 min walk to intercept each reclamation party. And what is with winter coming every 4 days??

[DeathBlack]

Each liberated village increases the # of reclamation party size by 2-3 so all 7 villages liberated rec- party would be between 15 to 21 enemies and once you liberated your 6th village, tier 3 knights will appear in the 1st reclaim attempt after village bell tower has been built. But after the 1st attempt the parties are around 12 on average every 3 to 4 days.

[Ygolnac]

Yes please, give us option similar to raids. the first reclamation should happen, after it the setting the option should be: disable, low-norm-high frequency and easy-medium-difficult quality.

If it's difficult for a new player to understand this settings, do as many other games do. General difficulty settings with the option to go advanced and fine tune the experience

Trivial: Raids disabled, reclamation disabled.
Easy: Raids and Reclamation low frequency easy strength
Medium: Raids and Reclation medium frequency and strength
Difficult: Raids and Reclamation high frequency and difficult sterngth.

Then slap a fat "Advanced Settings" button for the ones that want to fine tune it and research what they mean.

as for further people wondering about this, in the game options is the game difficulty setting, for "raid difficulty" "raid frequency" and "raids happening at all" (last one is only for bandits" but i feel like difficulty and frequency is for reclamation attempt aswell.

All three to five days and villagers dont arm themself and don't use defensive structure.

[Calimar_T]

So either a Disable Option (which would probably be easy to implement) or a Quest-Line option, with giving the Villagers Weapon Racks and arming them with Weapons and Armor (like, "Now we have been liberated, but we fear for our lives, please get us a Weapon Rack and like 10 Blunt Weapons, 10 Cutting Weapons and 10 Chest Piece Armor with at least xx Amount of Protection...
