Description
Opened a Ko-Fi account. Nobody asked me to and you gain nothing by tipping. If you like my nations enough that you still want to tip here's the link: https://ko-fi.com/casusbelli42

Nation inspired by the trio of books from Paul Koudounaris about Ossuaries , relics and Catacomb Saints of the Catholic Counter-Reformation of the 16th and 17th centuries. Motifs of morbidity and corporal mortification as well as the Second Coming of Christ and the Judgment Day when the dead will rise are also big parts of the nation. As a backstory I mixed it with ex-marignese religious fanatics who worship the bones found in Eldergate after the defeat of Ermor at the hands of Marignon, and await the Second coming of the prophet shrouded in white.

Great job, had fun playing with this nation. Nice to have unique summons at different levels and in different paths base game often misses this. Good variety in general.

capuchins seem a bit expensive at 21 pearls compared to like tomb kings who can summon different stuff to choose, considering getting level 2 astral on holy 2 mages to get them is really rare until cap/coin can be reliably forged as only the cap-capo can get it for 10%/4 chance and then we already burned through 31 astral gems and mummy factory is kinda late online.
they probably serve as hp baits but they could get some additional defense mechanic, other useful skill (maybe possible to mix them with mortals side by side in a squad like the marignese jesters as they are the same class of commoners?) or simply some shield.

while the idea in turning astral gems into a catacomb dwelling monk is nice, the mummies seem odd gameplay wise, maybe change them to passive dominion summon instead of as order so the watermage can do waterstuff and does his hobby of mummification in his sparetime after work? (of course he has no mobile mummification cart with him on his travels but... well)

i like the idea behind it as i was always awed by Waldsassen and Palermo, but...

i dont know why but i get saint hero boneboxes nearly once per season without having actual luck scales and got other fancy 2 to 3 heroes also while being like only 2 years in the game.

the 100-gold-nuns end in many cases just with h1, maybe up that usability as more realiable labmonkeys/slaves with some small astral chance?

@PawnSacrifice Glad you like my mods ! Don't have any videos / tutorials at the moment though I am debating making a blog or something for designing nations and world building. For now I can recommend Sombre. he has a few videos where he shows of how to sprite for example.

Do you have any videos or tutorials on modding? I really like your nations, I feel like you'd be a great person to learn from.

@Hajduk Thank you very much! Glad you are enjoying the nation

@Vermoin Hi there, sorry for the late reply. The Pope is not actually a hero, it is a prophet shape for bishops and arch-bishops. It gives you a +1 H level, so if you prophet a bishop you end up with a H4 prophet, while propheting an arch-bishop actually gives you a H5 !
Vermoin 7 May, 2024 @ 5:21pm 
Is it intentional that the Pope hero doesn't have priest levels? The pope-like figure of Ind for example has Holy 4, or Carmont the Cardinal for Marignon. Otherwise incredible mod.
Hajduk 12 Apr, 2024 @ 7:49pm 
Fantastic, one of my favorite non-DE mod nations.

@Absum Damn just updated before reading your comment. Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Holy Spirit spiritform:
There was a discussion about that. Turns out not all ethereal units have spirit form. As spirit form is quite a nerf it was omitted to make the chassis stronger. In lore terms the Holy Spirit is a semi-physical apparition of a divine being (some pretenders have same combination)

Saints working?:
The summoned ones have different paths. The found saints have same path regardless of chassis

Never Healing Tag:
Fixed, a little misunderstanding of how Corpse Stitcher works (only heals afflictions)

-- Global Assasination:
That is a bug - it was still looking for commanders with magic path 8 (which is now blood).

Communions:
I think is fine to have the holy communions be astral, as it is still the celestial sphere. Regarding the units with communion slave ability it seems that it only applies to astral ones (if I understand the manual correctly).
