Delayed Courtyard Introduction

Description
It's silly that the Crimson Court quests start practically immediately after starting a new game. The first mission is apprentice level but after that it requires Veteran level and beyond heroes. It takes too many weeks to train a decent amount of heroes to level 3 for the courtyard and by that time, the infestation is at high, you've probably already met the fanatic, and a good majority of your roster is cursed.

This mod delays the Crimson Court introduction quest from week 3 to week 20. By this time, it's most likely that you still have a few heroes who are Apprentice level for the initial mission and a few Veteran level heroes to start the first courtyard mission. It's very unlikely to have a team that is ideal for the courtyard and Veteran level by this time but this gives the infestation enough time to spread, which is the true challenge of the DLC.

Is this okay to use on a shorter campaign?

Does this mod works with Courtyard+ mod ?

This mod seems to be crashing my game every time I finish a mission, which is weird because it worked, like, yesterday. I was using it with another mod called Level Restrictions Removal but it worked just fine, and now suddenly it stopped.

For some reason, mods that edit files in the \dlc\ folder and onward don't carrry into the game. It required a bit of workaround, but this mod now works with Color of Madness.

I just started a new game with this mod, and after week 3 i still get the maddening whine event along with a courtyard quest available. I dont think it's working until it is updated for the color of madness DLC.

Does this work with CoM DLC?

Just came back after starting a couple of new files with all of the new additions (and learning that I should stick to Radiant difficulty until I've beaten the game at least once, holy cow), and I now understand what this mod does.
The infestation of the other zones only happens after you enter the Courtyard for the first time, and up until then, there's just an annoying mosquito problem that keeps you from getting other town events and reduces stress recovery.

Yeah, this mod is a lovely idea.
Though, now that you mention it, the ability to turn on the Crimson Court stuff only whenever you want does allow someone to get a similar effect.

Thank you for doing this. Literally the only complaint I have with Crimson Court is how quickly the quest line starts.
