Increase Honor Points?

[Cool_Mike]

My friends and I have been enjoying this game but we'd like to extend the length of our matches. Is there any way to increase the pool of honor points per game outside of having forfeited alts in the game with us? Seems like a no-brainer setting but I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

Totally agree with all the guys: please allow us to play longer matches even with the AI. Please!

Totalmente de acuerdo: las partidas se quedan cortas. Hay cartas que ni siquiera salen si combinas varias barajas y no mola. Venga, que el juego sería de 10 si nos diérais la oportunidad de alargar la partidas!

I Also agree with this, please allow us to increase the pool for online!

I agree!

Use Cheat Engine if you are doing offline play

very good game quicly killed for online gaming with friend by a far too low victory points limit...
sad to see that nothing has been done after years of the same demand...

Echoing the above requests, please add the ability to dramatically increase the honor pool star count, the more expansions become available that people want to play with, the more this is needed, particularly in multiplayer. Thank you! ;)

I wrote about this to Asmodee Digital via all possible "contact us" channels (Facebook, Twitter, Support form). No reply.

My wife and I wanted to increase the honor in both our online and offline games. So what we ended up doing is going into ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Ascension\AscensionGame_Data\StreamingAssets\Lua, created back up copies of the card set scripts and then modified card set scripts so that the apprentice would grant 3 runes each, set the honor pool to "500", and then get banished immediately afterwards. It's brute forced but it got the job done and doesn't seem to have any ill effects on the AI or our games. If you play with multiple decks you have to make the update in either all the card sets or at least the "highest" level one since it will overwrite the behavior of the apprentice card.

g_ascension_cards["Apprentice"] = {
card_name = "Apprentice";
display_name = "Apprentice";
card_type = "Hero";
rune_cost = 0;
do_not_put_in_void = true;
effects = {
{ "GainRunes", 3 },
{ "SetHonorPool", 500},
{ "BanishThisCard", 0 }
};
effect_text = "Gain 3R. Set Honor Pool to 500";

ai = {
trivial = true,
preferred_discard = true;
preferred_banish = true;

gain_rune = 3;
},

image_large = { "H_Apprentice", {0, 0, 364/512, 1} };
image_medium = { "H_Apprentice", {392/512, 0, 512/512, 168/512} };
image_small = { "H_Apprentice", {410/512, 170/512, 512/512, 312/512} };
image_half = { "H_Apprentice", {384/512, 395/512, 512/512, 512/512} };
}

This is a really creative solution to something that's inexplicably not in the game, dragonicmonkey. Thanks for sharing!

Were there any extra steps to get this working with online games? We messed with this, and when we tried to run an online game with card set script modifications (on both steam clients), player 1 got booted from the game with a "Network Connection Lost" popup after they ended their first turn. Reconnecting to the game rewound that turn. The honor pool amount updated on both clients when an Apprentice was played, and Apprentices were giving 3R and auto-banishing, but we couldn't get past the first turn.

I doubt at this point that it will be officially implemented, but I would love the increased honor point limit without manual editing too.

Why is this still not a thing for online games? I want to play matches online with frinds with alot more honor in the pool. Now the game is always over before it starts.
