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.

Hi Robzilla. What campaign / Character were you playing?

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

I was playing Irsu normal/normal no campaign modifications or workshop mods.

Ok. This is unusual, i haven't played Ursu but have played Bay who is on the coast and gets all the invasions. At which point are you getting overwhelmed? I mean as in turn and phase?

I haven't had a situation where i have had 6-7 sea peoples armies taking over. I have completed a legendary campaign with Bay with ultimate victory by turn 150.

The sea peoples start at turn 30 so ideally you want to have a stack and half around then. The AI will dog pile you if you look weak. If you have higher faction strength they will leave you alone.

I held them off until about turn 125, at which point they had 6-7 stacks heading directly into Damascus, completely ignoring any coastal settlements besides my own, which they razed a few turns before destroying my other two armies. my faction leader then retreated into Damascus, but at that point I had no way to defend any of my settlements. They steamrolled all of my tier 3's with guard towers and fort reinforcements. I'd post a pic if I could.

my advice is
invaders destroyed not only my towns and cities but also provinces of AI
so there is a good strategy:
- meet invaders
- run away to AI province
- let invaders to destroy their towns and cities
- so destroyed province becomes neutral
- capture and colonize a new province

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.

can you turn them off in multiplayer campaigns

Sorry I do not play multiplayer campaign, so I cannot reply.

I played with ramesse, tausret, seti, amenmese and sea peoples are very weak, i played with easy dificulty and set more movements and with mods (more movement because ai is stupid coward and always retreat from your army, i dont have nerves with pursuit enemy whole province, you dont have chance catch him because he have long marching stance, same problem as in Warhammer 1-2). Plus i set more sea peoples in campaign setting and the are too weak. If you have problem, make in campaign settings less sea peoples (-50% number of sea peoples) and change difficulty to easy. This game is very easy, specially with mods :-).
Now i play with Ioalas sea faction and they have OP units, specially infantry (super attack and defence, brutal armor, and very strong javelin throwing).

No they're not. The land invaders are though. Those libu, kaska are f ing annoying easy to deal with, but annoying.

Those sea people will ignore other factions and rush to your lands so be beware. I found out that the hard way when playing Seti

That only happens when you fail to invest in defenses. They don't rush for the player, but for the easiest to grab low-hanging-fruit.

As Iskar said they go for the weakest a lot, I couldn't figure out why they often neutral to me and I even got asked for non aggression pacts on occasion but after seeing someone else say I checked the save and I was no1 for power

They left me alone completely when playing an easy campaign like Seti. They attack you mercilessly if you play as the Canaanites though. Kind of stupid considering the Egyptians were much wealthier.
