Battlefield Chaos [1.5]

Description
This is a small mod that has the following effects:
1. It doubles base random weight of negative battle events for commanders and knights (captured, wounded, maimed, killed, or got head ripped off by a berserker).
2. Prowess reduces chance of negative effects by 1% per point (down fron 2.5% or 3.3% in the unmodded game).
3. Expands the range of potential named killers to include enemy knights with 50% of the victim's Prowess (down from 80%). This effect is mostly cosmetic.

All that together makes a character with 50 prowess as threatened on the battlefield as a character with 0 prowess would be in the unmodded game. The battlefield is now a much deadlier place for characters to be and not even the greatest warriors are safe.

If that doesn't appeal to you and you'd rather have skilled warriors be safer than normal my Battlefield Safety mod does just that.

WARNING

It's possible I may have missed some instances where Prowess is checked. If so please let me know in the comments so that I can figure out what went wrong and fix the mod.

COMPATIBILITY

The mod modifies three files:
- common/combat_phase_events/00_commander_phase_events.txt
- common/combat_phase_events/00_knight_phase_events.txt
- events/war_events/combat_events.txt

It should be compatible with any mod that doesn't modify the same files. In any case you will not be able to get achievements.

SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION

If you like the mod I would be grateful if you could like or favorite it.

One suggestion (havent played yet), AI seems to not be able to get prowess naturally. Children usually start with as low as less than 10 prowess, which is fine, but in battles they dont seem to increase much.

Anyone who wants to revive it is welcome to do so. I stopped playing CK3 because my computer is too old and keeps freezing whenever I play.

will this mod be updated to the current version?
Dragatus  [author] 26 Mar, 2022 @ 8:47am 
Yes, the system is universal and affects player and AI equally.

Cool, already since 2020 and now finally found. I've been looking for something like this all the time :-). One question, Does this also affect the AI?

Update for 1.5, the mod should be working again.
