I think in the default game the trigger for Chaos to first invade is you owning 37 settlements, with Archaon the Everchosen coming when you own 50?

I have 26. I'm curious if the chaos come with more settlements

Around turn 140.
Think you need around 60 settlements (military alliance). Could be wrong though.

The Chaos invasion is not based on turns, but rather on a hidden rating known as imperium.
Every time you take a new settlement, you acquire points for your imperium rating. Once you build up enough points, your imperium rating will level up and you'll get a message from the advisor saying: 'your empire grows strong etc'.

In the first game, Chaos invasion will have a chance to trigger once you hit level 4 imperium, and the chance increases as you're imperium rating increase. Archaon triggers when you reach level 7 imperium.

They've done some rebalancing for Mortal Empires, but you can expect something similar.
The bigger your empire grows, the higher the chance of Chaos invasion. Ironically, for my high elf campaign, I am at turn 164 and still no chaos invasion because I hardly expanded.

It can be especially hard to trigger Chaos as Tyrion since his faction specializes in staying in Ulthuan and getting rich off massive trade deals and infrastructure.

No turn limit anymore.
Marisher was right, around 35 and 55 for both events to trigger.

Alliances do not count into this, but vassals do.

Edit: What Mr. Ape describes is the (completely correct) technical explanation.
In these games, Imperium is only intended by settlement count, though (yours and your vassals) by a rate of 1 per settlement, so no difference in capital/minor settlements.
