Karl Franz died

[Canadian_Zac]

Not the wounded for 5 turns. He died. Like, permanently dead. Balthazar Gelt is the Emperor now apparently.
I have a few mods, but nothing that should mess with Karl having Immortality. I have no idea why, he just died from losing a battle.

[Drakenson]

Does he show up at the bottom of the 'Recruit Lord' list greyed out?

"I have a few mods"
Let me stop you there.

Which mods?

[The Mighty Mulletman]

Yea that sounds like a mod issue

[Canadian_Zac]

He's not in the Recruit list, and he's been removed from the Offices list, Balthazar Gelt has replaced him in the Emperor's Slot.

None of the mods should mess with him being Immortal. One that adds some new Legendary Lords and Heroes, one that changes some of the office bonuses. But i've played with all these before and he's just been wounded. The only difference is i don't have SFO or those specific mods on this time.
Might be some wierd conflict where one of the mods is meant to be used with SFO, and for some reason it removes Karl's immortality.
I have an autosave from the turn before he died so it's not really a problem. I just had a series moment of what the ♥♥♥♥.

You say that, but you also say:

These mess with the files dat deal with Lords and offices, possibly with their relative assignments.

99% sure this is you issue.
Possibly in the way you already describe, due to a conflict coused by a lack of SFO files.
But it could just as well be something else, specific events in the same turn or something else that requires the game to handle the Lord-related files.


Best thing I could recommend is a clean install en checking your mods for issues or even contacting the modders who created the possibly offending mod.

Not something i'm really worried about. As i said, i've got a save from before the fight, and i'm not really playing properly, mostly waiting for SFO to update since the regualr game is nothing compared to SFO. And the mod adds enough legendary Lords that i can go with Karl. I just love the idea that Karl died, and Balthazar Gelt somehow gets elected to take his place. So he's both Supreme Patriarch and Emperor of the Empire

some of your mods probably ticked off immortality from karl franz in startpos files

[Congo_Jack]

Gelt for Emperor!

[ArchAnge1LT]

Did you mourn him? Was funeral Grand?

[Canadian_Zac]

Karl kinda sucks without his birb, and with all the extra legendary Lords (theres all of the Elector Counts, plus a couple other guys) i have more than i'd have a use for in the game anyway. Gelt shall bring science and magic to the Empire.

[Smiling "Lucky" Lynx]

Isn't that when Franz is actually useful now? He goes Super Saiyan or some ♥♥♥♥ if you chop off arms. Also you should mourn him, he was your Emperor.

[Canadian_Zac]

No time to Mourn, we got Skaven, Norsca, and Talabecland to fight off first

Boris must be extra pissed that some how gelt got elected over him.

[Canadian_Zac]

If i was to elect one, i'd go with Marius. They call him mad, but twas him that stopped the invading unicorns, none other, mad indeed!
