Git gud.
How does continuing with a Six Ages 1 save work? What's carried over?
>>1530818Hard to say. I had at least one elf related event that seemed to draw on my choices from the previous game.
>>1530717>a morbillion different ethnicities in a stone age tribenice immersive gaym
>>1530837They're bronze age and they're nomads that routinely recruit from other tribes retard
:(
>>1530913What
More like Sex Ages amirite?
>>1530717pls help anon I raid and raid but I can never get even 1300 cattle
>>1531948Get the milestone blessing from Elmal that restores all your cattle when you lose it.
>have a ton of cattle>cant eat themso whats the point of cattle?
>>1531966>wealth>sacrifices>milk>emergency snack
>>1531966Milk and cheese
>>1531969>>1531970What about meat? Who lives off of milk and cheese only?
>>1531973Hunting happens passively.
>>1530693>We already have two threads for this game>Heh, I guess I will make the 3rd
>>1531995Where are the other two?
>>1530913>See giant magical spider at the end of the world>Attack itWhy would you do that, this is Glorantha 101 here.
>>1531948Trade goods, horses and even food for more cows if you want.
>>1531973A fair amount of nomadic people and Indians and the early medieval Irish. Cows are too valuable to just straight up eat, you should think of them more as a form of currency.
I could not get into six ages. I just didnt feel it, id much rather just play KODP again. But tbf KODP was the most soul ive felt in a game
>>1530866In other words, shit that never happened.
>>1533377glorantha isn't real?
I am playing KoDP, each Hunter handles 4 Wildlands, is that correct? How do I ratio my farmers? The amount of farmers I have handle both pastures and croplands, but then the pastures will depend on the amount of cattle? Some advisors also mention oxen. How do I properly set the amount I need and check for growth?
>>1533378>glorantha isn't real?>But if none of this is real, then why are we trying to destroy it?
Is there any practical reason to actually maintain the shrines to the dead gods that you start with or are you just punishing yourself with resource loss until you finally give up on it? Does the game reward you for it in any way? Are any of you even playing this?
>>1534013They give yearly bonuses sometimes, and help in some events.
>>1534019Overall that sounds not worth it.
>>1534051shoo shoo, nonbeliever
>>1534309Stop worshipping dead gods.
>>1530717>Crop failure>Sudden endless raids that you lose for some bullshit reason>Trolls attackThe game difficulty seems to vary between good times and getting BTFO so you're struggling.
>>1533377No that's how Central Asian horse tribes worked. Maybe if you'd actually play the game you would also understand that the tribe has been blending since you broke the taboo.
>>1533377read a book nigger
>>1535065>Keep warriors in the village for a few turns>No raids>Send warriors out after the end of raiding season>Immediate fuckhuege raid from a tribe that slightly dislikes me because I stole five cattle from them once a decade agoThis is just like playing EU4 and having every great power make their way towards you for no reason other than you're the player and they want to fuck you
>>1530837There are only three main ethnic groups and two of them just have a cultural difference.You play as a clan which is a merger of the two genetically distinct people.The swarthier (if occasionally red headed) Orlanthi and the more Aryan Lodrili/Dara Happan/Nivorahians
So which all gods can die then? All of them except Elmal and Dostal?
>>1535067Central asian horse tribes all looked the fucking same, they were not some motley mix of the fucking rainbow tribe lmaoEspecially a place like central fucking asia where there's no fast bulk transport on waterways to enable the relocation of massive amounts of aliens to new lands.The kind of racemixing we see today wasn't even possible until ~1700's, let alone the bronze ageman if you think this kind of thing is accurate to how ancient bronze age civilizations worked you're out of your mind. Not even the biggest trade hubs of the sumerian empire would've looked this diversefucking libtards and their brainrot I swear to Christ
>>1538286You need to head back to pol if different levels of skin tans trigger you
>>1538309You need to get your fucking brain checked if you think local tribes in the brozne age were so genetically disparate they had 30 different skintones and racial featuresYou should have just left it at, "it's a game lol" instead of bizarrely claiming this is 'normal' and what ancient civilizations actually looked like. No, it isn't. This is libtard delusions of bronze civilization based on contemporary feel good moron politics.My advice to you is go the fuck back to whatever safe space shithole you crawled out of. You hate this place and the people here and yet you keep coming here like some kind of drug addict. Maybe there's a reason for that? Do "/pol/tards" just do everything better?
>>1530866Those aren’t nomads, they are after the semi-Nomads had settled with another group and formed a kingdom, about 100 or so years later. There was plenty of intermixing before that too with Yeleni, Egreshite and Dara Happans. It continues a bit even In lights going out as you can adopt groups from the tribes to the south.
>>1538257it is CHADmal for you, pleb
>>1538316Keep crying, /pol/tranny.
>>1538390stay illiterate tranny
>>1538316I mean in a few melting-pot areas during certain migration periods it was possible.
>>1530913>killing Arachne Solara so that Chaos automatically winsHas anyone ever failed this hard at Glorantha?
>>1538907Not even the God Learners could fuck up that hard.
>>1530913isnt' arachne solara the strongest being in glorantha? how is this even possible
>>1538921>his clan members don't have a Combat score in the thousands
>>1538921Arachne Solara is the strongest in Glorantha because she is thought to be the reborn soul of all Glorantha. The power of none of us is as strong as the power of all of us, the way I fought but We won. The mother that birthed a great compromise that goes beyond compromise to be better than the sum of its parts.But what if there is no compromise? If instead there is a hateful, hopeless, thoughtless, entropic strike on the very idea of it? Then how could she have any strength at all?
>>1539332>a great compromise that goes beyond compromise to be better than the sum of its parts.It's corny, but I like that even without Ernalda, from the Prison of the Strange Gods to the ends of the underworld, Orlanth has always found another way.
Humakt, Urox and Elmal are all bigger chads than o*lanth
>>1539385And yet none of them becomes the King of Gods. Ponder this lesson, young weaponthane.
>>1539385>Humacuck>Ursucks>ElmaoImagine not worshiping Ragnaglar.
>>1539385Urox was NEET untill his home and family got Wakboth’d. He’s most miserable of the gods as he is eternaly stuck in the desperate struggle in godtime.
>>1539754Wakboth did nothing wrong.
>>1539765Wakboth did everything wrong. His theme is reacting to the inherent evil of existence (represented by Kajabor) by trying to outevil it. Nysalor is the one who arguably did nothing wrong.
>put max points into fields, pastures, and wilds>have all foraging/hunting shrines and blesses up>still no foodFuck this, I'm dismantling those shitty shrines and saving myself some magic.
>>1539434Well none of them cheated like orlanth did vs Yelm
>>1540104Yelm was the one that cheated, Orlanth was the real winner of all the contests, the judges were all just corrupt Yelm flunkies.
>>1530837The magic and the skeleton horsemen tell me that the devs aren't exactly going for historical immersion.
>>1540105My headcanon is that Yelm geniunely won the music one.
>>1540104How did the Orlanth cheat?
>>1540414>lose 3 out of the 3 contests>demand a 4th one>win only because you brought a haxx stolen weapon>despite this you still lost 3 out of the 4 contests but you still get to crown yourself emperor simply because you made your rival dead (which wasnt possible until you brought "your" haxx weapon)
>>1539726>SHITnagladGODrox gored him
>>1540598>God of Hating Chaos is made to cause even more Chaos by committing KinslayingUrSUCKS.
>>1540354What, you don't like bagpipes?It was just a joke, bro.
>>1538309lmao you got fucked
>>1532036>Glorantha 101Isn't that just "Don't fuck with ducks" This is probably 102 or even 103 we are talking about here.
>>1540598Ragnaglar TANKED that.
>>1539780What if Wakboth chose not to be bad? As for Kajabor, it is a shame that he doesn’t seem to ever come up directly in Lights Going Out, but then it might be difficult for him to since anything Kajabor destroyed is do utterly give that no one can even remember it existed.
>>1539780>Nysalor is the one who arguably did nothing wrong.
>>1541730By dying. But getting penetrated and failing is what Ragnaglar does best.And like Vadrus, everyone hates him so they just let him stay dead.
>>1539780The more interesting question is whether RAGNAGLAR did anything wrong.Since Ragnaglar failed his initiation (and was driven completely insane in the process), he was still a child rather than recognized as an Adult and full God like Orlanth and the rest of his brothers. As such, he is neither fully in control nor responsible for his own actions like an Adult would be.
>>1530913Seems like a good end to me. Everybody is free, bad things can no longer happen to good people. Justice, peace and equality reign supreme forever and ever.
>>1541887Gods of justice, peace and equality are all dead, sorry. Goddess of rape is still around for a while
>>1541910They stayed for a little longer to finish the job. Thed did good in that scenation, she ensured nobody will ever get raped again. Think about it, most chaos gods represent things so vile unmaking the cosmos seems like a rational choice.
>>1530818The blessings you've earned during the end game quest and your relationship with elves and some other outsiders.
>>1542143Loved that blessing against Chaos.
>>1541760Except there is.
>>1538309>-ACK!
>>1530693wait, it's out? motherfucker this went past the radar
>>1543213It's out. Remember, dried goat meat stops starvation!
So does the game just end if you participate in any of the chaos shit?
>>1540596Yelm consented to each contest. Yelm knew about Death, because Shargash used it against Umath, Orlanth's father, on Yelm's order.
>>1543246You can do some chaos stuff without game over, especially since most chaos is sneaky. You’d need to purposefully keep pursuing chaos to get a game over for it I think.
>>1543316I thought Umath was just dismembered, not killed
>>1543388Umath was dismembered into his sons but was also killed.Shargash does have the Death Rune.
There's so much fucking shit to do in so little time. Even 3 generations aren't enough.
>>1543819It feels like you have much more time to do stuff compared to Six Ages 1 at least. I didn't have much trouble sending traders and emissaries to all the other clans while also hoarding artifacts from trading and spirits from exploring when I picked the medium length option. I even delayed the marriage ritual because it let me directly explore for special artifacts.
>>1533377Bronze Age warrior societies typically killed all the males of their conquests and raped all the women. So they did have multiethnic societies in a way.
>>1543819What do you wanna do that you don’t have time for?
>>1534013There's a couple of things you get out of maintaining shrines/temples:Certain events get new answers if you have the right shrineVisitors from other clans occasionally visit to pray there, usually with some sort of giftAtleast one of the new Rituals you can discover requires you to have atleast a shrine to a specfic deityCertain treasures are easier to find if you have themOccasional divine blessingThere may be more but that's what I've come across. Don't know if there's any difference in maintaining temples vs shrines, but the latter is much easier to maintain than full temples.>>1538257I think Inilla and Osara survives too, atleast they did in my game.
>>1530818If you sent the special fire children off with Elmal during SA1, you'll get them on your ring in SA2.
>>1551289No way.
>>1552071
>>1552088I don't have an appropriate Ride Like the Wind save for thisafter LGO, I don't think I can go back to RLtWfeels bad man
Here's a real question. 1. Is this an improvement over Ride like the Wind? 2. Since this is set in the Great Darkness, how hard is this game? I expect shit comparable to the Hard Mode of KoDP where you are constantly barraged by bad events and raided by hostiles.
>>1552124>1. Is this an improvement over Ride like the Wind?Yes.>2. Since this is set in the Great Darkness, how hard is this game? I expect shit comparable to the Hard Mode of KoDP where you are constantly barraged by bad events and raided by hostiles.It's harder than KoDP. Mainly because it's much harder to snowball.
>>1552088Fucking awesome. I remember he got special dialogue for that event in Ride like the Wind but I didn’t have they would actually make use of it in LGO after how stuff like the Antlers were handled in the transition.Thank you anon.
>>1552124>1.Yes.>2.In KoDP, food is an issue at the start, then never again. In RLtW, food is occasionally an issue. In LGO, food is a problem the entire time. You really never get to feel secure that your clan isn't going to starve.There is a steady stream of bad events the whole game, but in the last few years it is as you imagine: a constant barrage. It can really test your preparations. It is definitely harder than the other two.
>>1551289>>1552088What do you mean by "sending them off witb elmal"? I don't recall such an event in sa1
>>1552220Explore Hill of Gold with one of them and you'll get it eventually.
Anyone figure out a decent way to train up your clan members? Rituals are complete trash now.
>>1552617Not really.The best I have is keep a shrine to the ancestors, and keep the "famous deed" blessing going the whole game. Over time, this ensures that your people have good skill in one area.One the other hand, with all the named story characters in LGO, you almost always have talent available. There's less need in this game to take someone from zero to heroic.
>>1552625The problem I'm facing on the hardest difficulty is that the named characters keep dying.
>>1552453Wow, I had no idea that was a thing that could happen. Just shows how much work they put into both games. Also gives a reason to replay RLtW.
>>1552617>do 3 successful "personal prowess" rituals over 3 years with a Renowned combat character>combat is still renownedWhat a fucking scam.
>>1553025Osra or humakt’s?
>>1553033Humakt, Osara, then Humakt again.
amazing how the gods are dying left and right and reality itself is breaking down and yet my clan members still find the time to argue over the pettiest shit like a bunch of 4channers.
>>1553134It actually makes sense that they would bicker more than ever, because the gods that deal with peace, harmony, law and understanding like Issaries, Lhankor Mhy, Ernalda and Orlanth are among those that are dead.
>>1553134>>1553168>Teenagers don’t respect their elders these days!>I bet Wakboth is behind this!
>the game is just a 70 year long version of Elmal Guards the SteadHOLY FUCKING KINO
>>1538309>tranime>wall of textShouldn't you be grooming minors on discord or something
>>1538286>I swear to christOh I bet you do.>Matthew 15:24
>>1538316Why do you think it's weird when your own family comprises of various shades of brown?
>>1530693>your people are starving!this is a problem even in Ride Like the Wind, at least in my part with that one faggot river hag drowning my crops by telling her to piss off and shot her when she's trying to force one of my explorers to serve her. i might have to start doing ventures or get blessings so my tribe would get their Kumis supplies i guess
>>1560180My spiritual brethren Cheese Heron and Berry make food a worry of the past.Spirits really are just better than gods, "ooh you want me to cure that mortal wound/fight literal satan/shine the fucking sun? that'll be 10 cows +tip" vs just asking nicely.
