Glad youre enjoying it mate

holy shit these 2 mechanics has always been cancer, cant believe it took me this long to discover this. Awesome mod chief

Appreciate it mate, they are such terrible mechanics, make the game so damn easy when youre using it, frustrating when youre not, and removes so much strategy from the overworld.

The goat! I was using a old remove stalk for skaven mod but it seems to be vanished.

This is even better, I was already using another mod to lightning batles, but this removes all the absurd ambush attack stances too!

Must have mod!

yes

Is this safe to add mid campaign?

perfect. thanks.

Updated to clear up some text that had been added over the last few updates and clear the outdated tag.

Np, made it clearer, thanks for the feedback

oh ok you should make that clear in the description. i also wanted ambushes to be replaced with vanguard just because playing either side of ambushes is so boring. still a very good mod! thank you for making the mod and responding!

Ahh, i think youre misunderstanding this mods purpose. This mod only stops ambush attacks, i.e. attacking someone and still getting an ambush, skaven/beastmen/alith anars stance that allows them to attack and still get an ambush. It does not stop regular ambushes, which are decently balanced as is by the difficulty of getting an enemy to walk through the position you want them to, outside of cheeky exploits.

The vanguard deployment ambush is, again, only for those races/factions that can do an ambush attack, i.e. skaven/beastmen/alith anar again.

Thanks ill check it out

it says "out of date" on the modloader and i got ambushed normal style once with the mod on. it seems to be effective when stopping snikch from ambushing but i got normal ambushed with this mod on I've never been able to do the vanguard deployment ambush pls update.

is it not working or?

update it!

Yep, its awful, makes no sense, and breaks my immersion :(

thanks, hate the idea of army being able to ambush my not moving army. especialy the idea that encampement doesnt even counter it. my 2 armies are camped next to each other yet 1 gets ambushed out in the open???

Cheers dude

Thank you for update man. Exactly what i wanted with my friend, we are mostly play coop against buffed army size AIs and AI can abuse ambush and lightning sometimes, even in normal game the ambush and lightning can be annoying.

Having this kind of mod around for option to have is nice. Good work.

Yeah you could, it wouldnt be too hard - whenever ive changed night battles to be set to 0, change it back to 1 and remove the balancing work :)

can you just make a mod that removes ambush attacks , but keep lighting strike ?

The Stalking Stance is not only op , it also sucks for the Enemy Ai.

Thing is, for Example, Skaven will attack your Armies even with no Chance of winning, if you uncover their Stalking Stance with Heroes standing around.

The AI doesnt recognize it doesnt attack in stalking Stance, because it got uncovered, in Contrast to the normal Ambush Stance.

So thanks, ill try it out.

Working for me still? Which part isnt working for you?

doesnt work

Update for chorfs

Fixed - in a manner of speaking - thanks for your help mate.

So the only way to turn that off for tzeentch is to stop them from being able to attack at all in teleport stance - so realistically i cant turn that off - i will rebalance it to give them some serious penalties if they use, however.

Hello, lightning strike is gone for me but the daemons of chaos faction can still ambush attack with the tzeentch teleport stance. Is it intended? If yes, is there a possibility to nerf this stance too in upcoming updates?

Changed base reinforcement time to be considerably lower, so while lightning strike is still powerful, it wont drag out the battle.

yeah its not good on either side of it.

I actually really like this -- lightning strike makes things too easy when i have endgame armies.
