Description:

This mod is just a variation of the Chaos Treasures mod (make sure they aren’t active at the same time though, use this mod or the other) :
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2858546739

Instead of spawning the treasures at random locations of the world that could be very far away, all treasures will be spawned closer to the player. The world is huge, with this version you are more likely to find more than 1 treasure during short/medium campaigns. If you intend to do longer campaigns, I recommend using the other version of the mod I linked above instead (unless you want to get the items as early as possible).

The seven "treasures" that can be obtained are :
– Chainsword
– Gilellion’s Soulnetter
– Skar’s Kraken-Killer
– The Bane Spear
– Slaanesh’s Blade
– Personal Sycophant
– The Dark Prince’s Paramour

How this mod works :
After turn 30, it spawns 7 markers at locations shown in the attached screenshot that are the closest to the player’s capital or faction leader. Move a lord on one of the markers and you will obtain one of the 7 items if you manage to win the fight.

This mod will work when activated during an existing campaign.
Note however that if you save the game after the treasure markers have been spawned then disable the mod and reload, the markers will still be visible in the world. While they will remain visible, nothing will happen if you move a lord on them though.

Please, let me know if you encounter any issue.

Multiplayer is not supported !
Don’t bother using this mod during your MP campaigns.

For more details on how this works :
– There are 49 possible marker locations in the world (see the attached screenshot to see the exact locations).
– The mod will spawn the markers that are the closest to your capital settlement. If you don’t have a settlement, they will spawn close to your faction leader. If your leader is wounded, they will spawn close to one of your army.
– Treasures are randomized as soon as you enter a campaign while the mod is active. It means that a specific marker on the map probably won’t give the same item during another campaign if it shows up again.
– It’s only possible to obtain these items when you move a lord on the marker to fight, it doesn’t work with agents.

– If you play and reach turn 30 while the mod is active, an event message will inform you that the markers have been spawned. Otherwise if you load the mod on a campaign past turn 30, the markers will be spawned as soon as the game is loaded (no event message will show up this time).
– For now the AI can’t interact at all with the markers. I could make them get the items too but I don’t think it’s interesting. At this point it would have been much easier to just add these items as generic random loot instead of having the whole marker system. So I don’t think it’s worth making the AI get the items too.

– You should be able to get all 7 of the items if you explore the map all around your capital.
– The army you have to fight to get the item is a mix of random chaos warriors and chaos daemons.
– The composition of the army scales with the number of turns with the army getting higher tier units at different thresholds : below turn 40, between turn 40 and 60, between turn 60 and 80, between turn 80 and 100 then above turn 100. Balancing the army size/composition is still WIP and will depend on your feedback to keep the fight challenging but not unfair.
