Sea people annoying...

[crowe6891]

Do the invasions ever stop? It's so annoying it's like the uproar with the Chaos invasions in WH3. Do I have to invade their lands or what do I do I'm about to hang it up cause I can't attack and get new lands because I'm constantly being invaded. Any tips appreciated.

The invasion of the Sea Peoples do reach a conclusion and they stop. You only need to defend your lands, they don't have any lands to take.

You can switch them off or reduce / increase their strength in the settings if you want. Just note that they are at war with all the other factions as well and the other factions will actively try to take them out. This can be used to your benefit.

It is possible to have very low upkeep or free armies in your territories, you need to understand and stack your building and outpost bonuses. In many of my games i have so many armies on guard that the AI wont dare to attack unless forced to.

Turn 140. You can adjust them in the campaign setting for your future games.

[Defmonkey]

Yeah Turn 140 is when you get the achievement and victory points for surviving the Sea Peoples. They are all on the board by the last wave... which is around turn 126 if i recall correct.

EDIT: Just double checked my files... and the last wave is on the board Turn 115.

Breakdown below on the invasions if you want to know more info.


Turn 1 - 30 Clear Seas (no sea people)
Turn 31 - 42 Weshesh Wave + Libu / other land tribes begin
Turn 43 - 54 Shekelesh Wave
Turn 55 - 66 Lukka Wave
Turn 67 - 78 Teresh Wave
Turn 79 - 90 Denyen Wave
Turn 91 - 102 Ekwesh Wave
Turn 103 - 114 Great Wave Lukka, Denyen, Shekelesh, and Weshesh
Turn 115 - 126 Tjeker Wave
Turn 127 - Until end of game Clear Seas.
Turn 140 - Cut screen announcing end of sea people / victory points for surviving / achievement
Each cycle is 12 turns for each wave, 8 in total. 6 turns incoming, then 6 turns invading.

Unlike Thrones of Britania the invasions of sea people are not the end point of the game. It's even a happy surprise the first time you play it. Indeed, you can set up the invasion in the options.

Until end of game Clear Seas.

will Libu raiders stop their raids?

[Kendji]

I think so, not sure

[Iskar]

Looked it up in the script file:
On Normal and lower they will just stop spawning.
On Hard and above their latest invasion forces will respawn a total of 20 times each.

On all difficulties the turn-140-event will set you at peace with them and you need to redeclare war if you want to eradicate them.

They don't attack other factions, at least they didn't in my game. Every Sea people stack traveled inland into my territory and just started razing my settlements. there were at least 5, and I had already given it everything I had beating 6-7 of them before they completely took my coastal settlements. There was not a single sea people stack in my neighbors territory, which went untouched.

Hi Robzilla. What campaign / Character were you playing?

This isnt overly important but just to give me some context on your situation.

Yes, when you defeat the great wave around turn 100ish. You can however turn them off entirely pre-campaign.
