Description
"Furthermore, I consider that razing Carthage would require a lot of time. Like, a lot. It's a big city."
— Cato the Censor (234–149 BC)

This mod changes the way razing works by making raze only remove 1 level from the settlement (if it's not a level 1 settlement). So if a level 2 settlement gets razed, it gets downgraded to level 1. You still lose all the secondary buildings except ports. With multiple armies (since razing costs all movement points) it's possible to raze the same settlement in the same turn (but the vanilla gold sacking penalty still applies).

This obviously has big repercussions on the game, but it would require a lot more playtesting from me to tell you what those are. If this sounds interesting, try it out and provide feedback.

With Vandy's Mod Configuration Tool you can change how much levels the settlement loses when it gets razed from the default 1.

Compatibility:
This is a 100% script mod, it's compatible with literally everything.
Should work in Multiplayer.

didn't play enough of the game with this mod to judge what the AI does, sorry

WH2 doesn't get patches or changes, this mod is unlikely to ever break

I know its been a while, but is the mod still functional? Since its a script, I presume it would work with SFO and such.

How does the AI handle it? Do they stick around to raze multiple times?

I wonder how this impacts a Beastmen campaign.

I added a setting for Vandy's Mod Configuration Tool so you can change how much levels the settlement loses when it gets razed.

very interesting idea! I think it can have interesting consequences and feel quite loreful in some contexts.

If one combines it with the mod that restores WTW1-style occupation restrictions, it can generate a lot of "inertia" in wars where even winning battles will not wipe out the enemy. As you say, for good or for bad... But maybe closer to the lore where wars never end for centuries between given blocs

Can you make a a less gentle version that razes 3 levels?

I would guess this slows down Chaos invasions by a noticeable margin once they start splitting up their forces.
