That would be greatly appreciated by everyone, including me, for sure. The list for this mod won't be that long. Using the list from this mod, people can deduce which towns are in the Limited version which will be doubly useful. But not stress.

@Lawh thank you very much, I'll try in the editor but I'm not exactly fluent there. I'll try and make a list myself if possible.

Glad you like it my friend.

I think Reactive World changes the world states that decide how towns get taken over. These TOTW mods require that no other faction will take over the towns. There would be a way to do it, but it would make taking over towns really annoying as you should kill only someone but then leave someone else alive. Usually with mods you have to keep things as streamlined and natural as possible.

You can check all the towns if you can pop this mod into your editor and look at the changes made. If you're not at all familiar with that, then at some point I might make a list but I don't think it's happening as these mods are very old already. Who knows.

@Lawh is it possible to have a full list of affected towns/locations? Like I don't know if I should murder the Preacher or no... XD. But otherwise I have a few questions, to preface I have Reactive World but no other mods that affect towns besides economy fixes (i:e no settlement expansions). I attacked Narko's trap, killed the paladin there (Twice). But afterwards the place was controlled by skeletons? SO I killed them too and it's just empty now. (I went to Black Scratch and back for reload purposes). Also the settled nomads in shem seem to never come under control despite how far I go and me killing the tagged TOTW_ npc. If available I'd love some help, please and thank you. (Also love the mod).

Unfortunately there might be issues with it, but see how it goes. Someone mentioned having it work if they did certain things in certain order, but I don't remember what it was exactly. It should be here on this thread, or then on a discussion or thread of the other versions of this mod.

I love this mod, hope it works with living world

I put it below living world so that this overrides and haven't found issues yet, but I also have terminal restartitis so I've only ever taken over a single ruin one time.

Hey i have a question, can it work with Living world Mod ?

Good stuff. And no problem, mods can get tricky and this mod series is especially prone to conflicts and bugs.

hey man, found the problem, it was on my end, thanks for your help, probably never would have confirmed that if you hadnt replied. You do awesome work and made an awesome mod. thanks again

Try Port North, and making sure Lady Kana is no more. Then move away from the desert with all of your people, and then move back to Port North to see if there is a change. And no bother at all.

Ok, between the ambiguity of whose deaths are necessary and the fact that it requires outright death, im having a lot of trouble confirming if the mod even works. sorry to bother you for this, but could you give me one city and a list of who needs to die to vassalize it? because at this point ive fucked up my rep with everyone for no gains, and i either need to confirm this can work, or start over.

Mostly, there is either a vanilla town leader with an important lore role, or a leader with a TOTW_Leader tag in their name, or both, and on some occasions you have to go on a rampage. I never got to really finalizing this system to make more sense, but mostly it's a good idea to kill everyone who looks important. You also have to make sure they're dead, and not unconscious or kidnapped, or anything like that. Proper dead. I've heard use of skin peelers, wild dogs, and crucifixions. Whatever happens to them, they need to end up in heaven.

Ok, final questions.
what are the exact conditions for town takeover? There are characters with a tag for this mod, do i have to kill all of them? Do i just have to kill the one with a leader tag? is it a complete purge where i have to kill all the ones with the mod label, the characters in town with diplomatic status and their lieutenants?
Lastly, does a takeover require the deaths of the needed character/s, or does kidnapping and imprisonment work?

1. Once you take over a town, the citizens will be of a generic faction named "Your Vassal" or something like that. The populace is replaced with this faction, so there won't be any hostilities with the new populace. The faction you took the town from will be angry though, but they will be angry in their own towns.

2. You should leave the town and go far enough with your people so that the town will reload itself. Then once you return, the town should show up as a green color, showing that they are allied to you. Blue is your color, red is hostile, and green is for friends.

3. There can be a lot of mods that conflict with these take over mods, as this I think is beginning to reach the limits of what an and should be done. The 256 mod should not affect this mod at least, but other mods that change anything about the main towns are likely to cause some problems. The mods that go with this one are quite limited. There is the "limited" version of this mod, which should work with most other mods, but that has no vassals and so on. Only the ruins and little places are conquerable.

Hey, having trouble getting the mod to work, wanted to ask a couple questions for trouble shooting/future use purposes.
1) Does this mod account for relation consequences? Like if i kill a bunch of people in a town vassalizing it, are they gonna shoot me when i go to collect taxes?
2) where would i see the change in town status? when i mouse over it on the map will the controlling faction be mine?
3) my best guess for why its not working is a mod conflict. Would it be more likely to be the 256 recruit limit one, or a buildable resource node one?

Your least bad shot is to have this load after Living World

It's very unlikely. You can try the limited version and see how that works.

Does it work with Living world?

How does this mod work? Nothing is being captured/vassalized from me, although I have eliminated the head of this place. Rescheduling the game did not help.

I think if you import your save with "Dead NPCs" on and then relations and so on off, it might work, but not sure.

Is there a way I can be allies with the Police faction that spawns in? im neutral with them and they keep getting mad and attacking me, then all my vassals attack them and it starts a civil war

Ah. Well, that's too bad.

He already did it in the past. He just leaved everything and act edgy in self-pity, while ruining the game for many people.

That's unfortunate. I wonder what happened.

Thank you. This seems like really perfect mod for my new empire roleplay playtrough. I'm starting new playtrough after 300 hours, because Mogwai deleting his mods destroyed my whole save. I will let you know after some hours, how I like the mod.

That unfortunately doesn't seem to be possible to do without being overly specific with the modding. Building in a city that isn't yours doesn't seem to work, unless it is a building that you buy.

What you can do is put this mod into the editor and see what I have changed. In there, you can edit the characters that spawn inside vassal towns to your liking. It is relatively simple to do if you have the basics of the editor under control. You can look for you YouTube channel for a video on the editor. It's quite long but it should include what you need.

Would be possible version, where you can vassalize the city, but change the race of the population and also build there?

Once you take over a town, it is filled with a faction that is your vassal and all the original people who lived there will leave.

Once you take over do all the people despawn?

No owner?

Uh it's blank

Wait do u need to download TOTW as well or only VOTW?

The mod introduced leaders have a "TOTW_" in front of their name. In some towns these aren't needed since the towns have leaders of their own.

There is a small window when you enter a town that shows you the owner of the town. Who owns the Hub when you enter it?

There's destroyed buildings everywhere in the hub can't seem to find a tax man anywhere, killed barman and shinobi dudes

First time using ur mods may I ask how do I know it's a mod introduced leader?

In the Hub, I think you should get rid of the shopkeepers and the mod introduced leader. I'll try to get a chance to check it out.

Hey may I ask what do I have to kill in the hub, heng and the 2 shek kingdoms so that I may be able to vassalize them? Unfortunately I have no other mods on and I went as far as halfway across the map to ensure that ur mod works but it don't work...

@Loopadoopa
Forgot to get back to you. I looked at it and didn't find an issue. It could be a mod conflict or something I missed.

@youwandag
I think if you edit this mod, you can make any faction table it over and the game might automatically populate it with the faction's guys. Specific changes are difficult for me to make as the basis needs to stay as neutral and uniform as possible.

The limited version will allow you to take over locations other than main towns and so on. It's unfortunate that there needs to be so many different versions but three is still manageable.

Is it possible to make the Noble in the Stone Camp be the Slave Trader faction, not Trader's Guild? I meant to take over the Stone Camp, but accidentally made mortal enemies of the Trader's Guild!

Also -- I didn't realize I needed TOTW-Limited to take over *towns*, good to know! Thank you.

Howdy, I have killed the Barman and Ninja Guard Leader+squad in The Hub but I cant seem to Vassalize the town. Any ideas ?

I can't immediately see what the issue could be, but please do keep me posted if you find any clues.

@azrieljohnson I am having the same problem as well! Ill keep you updated on if i figure it out

I ran into an issue with Mongrel. I killed all of the TOTW people, then went away and when I came back, it was regular Mongrel with no TOTW or VOTW people as it would be if I took it over. I'm going to unsub, load and resub to see if things get fixed. I'll post this on TOTW as well.

compatible with genesis?

Hello, love the mod so far but i can not seem to find the Taxman for Squin

Get it,thanks

I think that is limited as well, although you can try to change all the town names to English ones and see if that works.

Thanks for your reply! Then what about game language?Is that we could only use the english language version of the game?
