Recruting Ancient Vampires?
As in title. I went to a crypt - what now? The coffin is sealed and can't be just uninstalled to awaken the vampire back in my base. I brought 3 colonists (one of whom is a rather good werewolf), an elephant, some blood packs and a coffin of my own. And a psychic shock lance. So I can easily drop the vampire without any lasting harm, and then capture it (by putting a sleeping spot in a crypt and marking it as a prisoner bed) - but I can't figure out how to put it to sleep in a coffin for transport. Soooo... is this even possible? Or are ancient vampires only there to boost your other vampires by diabolerie or whatever its called? I don't think I can break its resistance and recruit it in the 3 days it will take for the caravan to reform automatically. I've also tried to just let it feed on packs and animals until it's no longer in a berserk state, but then it just goes to neutral and leaves the map.

tl;dr - Is it possible to recruit an ancient vampire and how do I do it?

Personally I'd say they exist for just upgrading your current Vampires. If you're able to extend the time you have until an auto-caravan reform by leaving and going back when able without disturbing the crypt, and then trying to break resistance that might work. Though, if three days is the max period then I'd just try to break the resistance anyway, since after checking coffins/Sarcophogaus's (however you spell it) aren't prisoner mode available. You can store corpses in them, but uh, the Ancient clearly isn't much use dead.

Maybe try force chatting as soon as it's available with humans/vampire characters going around the clock as their sleep schedule allows if you take him prisoner.

Or - Dev mode, I guess, if push comes to shove on the matter.

Welp, its not an easy process but ive found a way, you need the simple slavery mod though. Make the vampire a prisoner which is easy enough. just get em burnt on the light outside the crypt and once they are down bring them in to make them as prisoner. once that is done you should have a slave shackle (or whatever its called) from the simple slavery mod. use it on the vampire and you pretty much have control of it. and then just tell it to go to sleep mode in the casket you brought.

and its not really "cheating" devmode style cause they are still not fully your colonist just slaves that you can control. Once you are back to your colony just make an enclosed room somewhere with lots of protection and make a prisoner bed and just remove their slave shackles then they turn back into a prisoner that you can recruit again. just watch out for their vitae though.

You stun them and transport them with a transport pod, make sure you can feed them.

Or you kill them transport the dead body home and there revive them. Least costly is when you use a rimworld of magic with 2 chronomancers one casts reverse time and one casts accelerate time directly afterwards.
