factions dont use ruins in late game
i have some things id like discuss, formally the fact the AI doesnt actually capture every ruined settlement even if its strong enough simply becuase its reached its limit of cities it can own. i enjoy playing long campains and having to deal with a massive empire to fight against come to the end of the game besides chaos. sadly the empire just sits in their cities and doesnt capture any more ruins after they have their limit. does anyone else have this problem?

i enjoy long campains and simply upping the chances of a faction settling in a ruin doesnt help after the faction in question has got to a size they just reject it entirely.

im not trying to bring this modder down for i adore the mod i just want to point out this issue, that changing the chances of settling in a ruin doesnt change anything in late game. yet without the change im talking about the late game will feel empty no matter what due to factions losing in the game and there not being enough factions to take up every city will leave a empty void of no mans land that no faction wants to take up leaving people to just quit the game at that stage.

does anyone else have this expirence and wish to make a comment? or have i got it wrong completely?

I think given enough time the AI will recolonize everything. While the AI doesn't pay for reolonization, it doesn't have unlimited money to build contrary to certain beliefs so it will first settle 1 or 2 ruins and rebuild the settlements. Only after that it will seek out other ruins and so on. It's a step by step process. Recolonization is of course a good long term investment, if you can keep the settlement, but is a massive loss of money short term.

You can still raise the priority to recolonize but it will be much dangerous because the AI will recolonize and lose half its forces instead of attacking or defending.

i was playing norsca with your mod and i kept another norscan tribe to raid the lower factions in my steed for im lazy like that, the thing is the empire mannaged to kill the vampire counts and the empire isnt at war with the spare norscan tribe but the norscan tribe mannaged to kill all other factions.

your right about the power thing but at this stage the empire was 2nd in power under the dwarfs and all around them where ruins. they did expanded but for abput 80 turns they havent captured any more settlements even know they have the money and the man power.

i normally play norsca to turn 300-400 (due to the fact i like to watch the ai make empires and fall) but this always happens, the ai just reaches a max number of settlements and doesnt capture anymore
