Depending on the regions Naggarond own (Player or AI controlled) they will have a chance per turn to spawn raiding forces around the world.

Info

Part of my "Old vs New" range of mods, these mods aim to increase the interaction between the New World and Old. As it stands the New World and Old World currently have very little interaction in the game, this mod changes that by giving Naggrond depending on how powerful they are a chance to spawn an army somewhere in the world. This provides some degree of gameplay variety to all factions. As the army spawns are random this provides variety and replayability creating new challenges and oppurtunties for each campaign. Conflicts erupt that span the shores of the Warhammer world as friend and foe are dragged into distant wars.

Technical Info

This is a LUA script which is highly compatible with other mods as it runs separately to other mods. The script works basically by selecting one of several pre-determined scenarios and then making the necessary changes. The pack file name is SR_raids if you want to have a look or edit anything.

Spawn Criteria
Owning the following settlements will give a chance to spawn armies each turn though depnding on what settlements you hold the spawn locations will vary.
Naggarond – 3%
Naggarond and Karond-Kar/Arnheim – 5%
Naggarond, Karond-Kar and Arnheim – 7%
Naggarond, Karond-Kar, Arnheim and Star Tower – 8%

AI will get an extra unit and take one of the local settlements.
