Map Seeds?

[Aetini]

Anyone got some good map seeds?

My current game is fun and I'm loving the DLC honestly, but I wish I got more seeds with a city/town or two in or near the far north (instead of barely entering the tundra) and more maps with the southern cities on the water.

Edit: Thanks to Scathe for posting this bb calculator seed search tool

Edit #2: Sounds like new update broke old seeds so, unless you are on the old update or looking at more recent posts (Mid March 2022-ish) the older seeds listed aren't going to work it sounds like

Just a quick thing, if you change the combat difficulty to expert the game will actually get easier. You get access to better armor quicker, and much more loot which allows for better hires. The first few fights will be harder but you just get some sacrificial beggars and nets for that.

This si something i am curious abot - so expert dfficulty just deliver harder difficulty and rewards faster, btu beginner reach eventually same? Does it make sem even legendary locations as Monolith?

Pretty much, the only difficulty that gives the player any advantages is beginner. On beginner if I remember correctly you get a +10 to your accuracy on all attacks. Granted been over a year since I've played so might be misremembering.

Increases amount of enemies and gear of enemies which means you can loot better gear earlier, also higher chance for legendary gear because there are more difficult camps. Legendary locations like monolith are also the same at all difficulties as far as Im aware and don't scale. This is why peasant militia is the strongest lategame company for endgame content.

AVEWIHOOHQ- Great beast slayer seed posted on reddit. Team Player + Paranoid, Iron Lungs + Fearless, Traitless. Decent stat rolls, some of them being max. North/South ports but very spread out map.

Oh. I wonder if that that Fearless/Iron Lungs guy would make fearsome sword lancer bro.

NECDMNLHHY - great gladiators and map seem decent

[HalfezITA]

Best map so far Lone Wolf
Port north south every resouces present on map besides leather tanner
BAIEPGFCWB

[Elhoim]

Map that has almost all the good resources (only Peat Pit and Wool Spinner missing, but they are the "weakest" ones). Has 1 city with Gems and Salt, 3 Copper mines and 2 Trappers.

The seed is: Oscar

Starting chars are meh, but that's what BBEdit is for. There's no edit to the map itself, so I prefer to focus on nice maps.

spent over half the day today already searching for peasant militia seeds. It takes me at least 3x as long per seed searching them because they have so many more bros to evaluate. I've had bad luck so far today but I'll report on a couple seeds anyway.

seed: CQTUVAVKVN
peasant militia bros are probably the best that I saw today, barely good enough for me to consider using, map is also barely good enough for me to consider using. I'd at least fire the 4 worst bros.

seed: GZFQGQTHXV
seems like a good map to me, but was not happy enough with any origins start after checking it for every origin (err, maybe I skipped manhunter and deserter) to reccomend it for them. poachers have good bros but cold to the strongest faction. there is a citadel in the middle of the map and settlements go in a loop north of the citadel and another bigger loop south of the citadel.

Gladiators:

Lion: Iron Lungs, Deathwish

Bear: Iron Lungs

Viper: Quick/Surefoot (OH YAS)


Iron Lungs isn't really my thing but it's never bad, and Deathwish is kinda redundant on Lion, but OH MY.. That Viper has Quick and Surefoot. Mmm. Could lean into the Qatar or go Duelist Fencing Sword.

seed: NLSJBDKMLR

none of the origins I checked had great bros, but, the map has 8 harbors fairly well spread out. this includes two of the city states. in spite of the great water travel the water may get in the way in spots, and not all settlements have an easy harbor nearby. I have a hunch it may be a great trading map, but not sure.

[raul]

MKYAXDTUNH. So far the best trading seed I've found. City states connected with one single road, with ports in 2 of them. Besides city states the trading circle includes few more cities with resources - and everything's so compact with ports conveniently based that it takes a single day to complete the loop, buying up amber, dyes, salt, incense, spices, silk and foodstuffs and selling it all in coastal harbor. Small city with surface iron vein and keep with smelter, both on the trade route, give easy and cheap access to variety of starting weapons. Swamp castle. Bunch of forest villages/cities.

Oh, and the golden goose is just north of Azim Shab, on the coast.

Main weakness would be lack of north port and just one smelter - but with amount of money you'll be raking in and abundance of caravans between city states you'll be decked out in named items fast.

Where exactly... can only find the fallen star

peasant militia seed: TNZNYTDWNY

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2201222193

harbors: 2northwest, 2southwest, 1 citystate south

nice concentration of settlements for the northern house, south more spread out.

best set of brothers I've ever found on a peasant militia seed I think (including on old versions of the game). my standard I shoot for is to find a good bannerman, 2 good ranged attackers, and as much good melee as possible, here are the brothers -
siegfried - good bannerman
Hjalmar, ralf - solid ranged by peasant militia standards
hartwig, dietrich - good in both melee attack and defense
anselm - don't worry about having to use him as fodder but may develop into a decent tank with some levels
reiner - good melee attack, poor melee defense, may have to put him on the front line early but if he survives he is a great 2 tile melee user
bernfried, geralt - could be useful fodder early on, consider firing one of them maybe immediately.
guntram, olaf, raimund - should be immediately fired for sure.
