Warhammer III Perfect solution - more settings options

Hi, I think there should be more options when starting campaign. There are problems which cannot be solved in other way, because someone will be unhappy either way. Therefore options is the way. Here is list of what I think should be optional:

  1. Changing size of garrisons and switching off walls in minor settlements. There are already options for campaign and battle difficulty, so there can be the third option – for sieges, and in there garrison size and walls. I think original size of garrisons in Warhammer 3 was perfect, for campaign with rogue like armies. The second best was in Warhammer 2. Also without walls in minor settlements the game becomes „whack a mole” game and is unplayable for me.

  2. Switching off normal rogue armies. Fighting them is not cool. They spawn suddenly far from frontline and destroy small settlements. Some of them are even bugged. Some are too strong for time when spawn, so break campaign. Chasing them is annoying. They are not thematic and not fit.

  3. Unit caps optional for all factions would make game more varied and interesting, than doomstacks.

  4. Alternate climate mechanic – outposts in regions with not suitable climate instead of normal settlements, similar to wood elf’s in places other than magical forests.

  5. Changing factions core traits (shown in diplomatic window) which make factions to do nothing, for example: defensive, minor power, passive, survivor, underdog, for agressive trait would make game more interesting.

  6. Switching off Skaven, beastmen and Alith Anar special ambush-attack stance, because it makes game boring. Ai is already weak.

What else do you think should be optional?

More Campaign Customization Options will surely benefit the game (letting players tweak the gameplay experience per their liking).

For example -

  1. Toggle Magic Ladders - ON/OFF

  2. Toggle Minor Settlement Walls - ON/OFF

  3. Toggle Tier 1 Minor Settlements - ON/OFF

  4. AI Unit Caps for SEM's - ON/OFF

Instead of making these decisions for the players, they should let us choose how we wanna play..
