This mod fully overhauls the Dreg region in the game. The Deadcat villages present in the base game have been fleshed out into a full faction, a mix of Swamper and Deadcat culture blended to form this new nation. The mod adds a capital town, with 5 shops, a bar, a barracks, and an HQ ready for the player to move into once being proclaimed leader. Three villages have also been added to replace the previous deadcat villages, and the nomad village has been relocated slightly to the north.
The highlands in the region still provide plenty of room for player bases, and farming yields have been raised to make the region more hospitable.
This mod allows the player to become leader of the Dreg faction granting them the ability to tax local businesses on a weekly basis. The player can set tax rates as they see fit. The player can also order guards from the faction to assist them as needed.
In order to prevent the player from instantly gaining access to leadership status right off the bat, the player must first find and capture the former leader and bring them to justice thought a bounty quest. He can be found In Mongrel. Once this is done, the player must go village to village, town to town, gathering support of the people, and eventually winning enough votes to be made leader. The captain of the local militia can be found in town and can walk the player through these steps.
I have tried to make the mod somewhat balanced, tax income is based roughly off rates in the UC, however you can tax more or less as you see fit. The militia troops you can order around are also fairly weak, adding some balance. However at the end of the day, any mod that gives the player the ability to lead a small nation will inherently break game balance…
Abusing your powers too much will slowly decrease your popularity with the faction, so watch out for that… or don’t.
I made this mod for my own enjoyment, but hopefully someone else gets a kick out of it.
