Is there a way to reduce the size of troops
The mod is really great, but one thing I don't like is the army size. These 200+ lord's troops and 1000+ troops in cities/castles make battles very boring. Is there an option to disable it?

Not that I know of, if you're bored by the army sizes just don't use the mod, or use a battle changer mod.

Why the heck do you think I shouldn't play in this mod only just because of army size?

First 100 - Base party size ( native default is 30)

Second 100 - Increases the max party size for each point of leadership. (native default 5)

45 -> Base size for all parties (default 30)
30 - Base party size for lord parties (default 10)
15 -> Increase max party size per point of leadership (default 5)
30 -> Renown needed to increase max party size by 1 (default 25)

60 -> Final divider for AI lord max party size (default 80)

I've found the divider is usually what makes a pretty sizable difference for AI lord parties. If you want to go the extra mile, edit party_templates.txt and look for all of the kingdom reinforcements.

pt_kingdom_5_reinforcements_a {!}kingdom_5_reinforcements_a 0 0 1 0 86 8 15 0 87 8 15 0 -1 -1 -1 -1

8 15 -> 8 is the minimum and 15 is the maximum

I'm posting this so you can change the numbers and see what you like best. Please get back to me at a fair and balanced number. Please also remember that Diplomacy is merged with the mod Vexed Native. Vexed increases everything, and I'm not understanding why people are worried abou these massive army sizes when it's one of the features that already comes with Vexed.

Also note that if you do change these numbers, make a backup because whenever I update the mod, it will overwrite all the files.

I agree with Brandell that hayouge battles are less fun. I can't understand the lack of understanding.

Everybody has different play styles, I hope to fix this problem in the future with sliders.

Thanks for the reply and for allyour efforts. I didn't mean to sund ungrateful.
Paco232 24 Nov, 2018 @ 10:01pm 
do any of those variables effect garrisons in towns/castles? i would like to decrease that as 1000+ sounds insane.

Any news on how close we are to a slider update? I'm going to mess around with these numbers now.

Any news on the slider?
Walsingham 25 Nov, 2019 @ 8:24am 
I am also still interested in a slider. But I've been improving my manual editing. I might have a go directly, as you described.

In any event, still huge thanks for the developing.
