@Huitzo Mantequilla!
Unfortunately I won't be able to do this because I don't have the third part yet and it's not even available in my region.
But if you have a desire, you can go to folder [...Steam=>steamapps->common->Total War WARHAMMER II->data], copy my "^POSITIVE_Great_Power_Penalty.pack" file and put it into the [...Total War WARHAMMER III=>data], so it should work fine

This mod makes so much more sense than vanilla
Lampros 13 Sep, 2021 @ 10:57am 
Fair enough, friend ;)
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 13 Sep, 2021 @ 10:49am 
@Lampros
From the view of correctness - yes, but in community this in-game characteristic is mainly called "Great Power penalty", and most of the mods associated with it use exactly this combination of words. So I did it in that way to make it more understandable
Lampros 13 Sep, 2021 @ 8:23am 
I like the idea for this mod; but the title should more aptly be "Great Power Bonus"! ;)
hellsinger67 12 Aug, 2021 @ 12:56am 
thanks for the mod, it works well

Thanks for the mod this -40/-60 great power penalty I suffer annoyed me a lot. This saves me a few hundred k gold in ''gifts''
XIII07 20 Jul, 2021 @ 2:35am 
Interesting, I like the idea of this mod. And a different alternative for all the "no great power penalty" mods that currently are outdated
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 18 Jul, 2021 @ 7:39am 
@Miskatonic
Yeah, of course, it should be fine with any update which doesn't directly change Great Power mechanics.
I'm glad my mod helped you get more enjoyment from the gameplay ~
Miskatonic 17 Jul, 2021 @ 6:01pm 
If anyone was wondering the mod works fine with the new update so far. Thanks for the mod, I enjoy being able to trade and actually use all the resource buildings in the late game.

@Mr. Tarzan
Apparently you don't know enough about this legend, google "Lady of the Lake" or even "Holy Grail" and you will be convinced wherefrom GW wrote off whole essence of this race. At the same time, as the current era here was chosen the Middle Ages, it's kinda too far from Napoleon, unlike the Empire, which at least has muskets and cannons, that's already more suitable.
But this is a silly dispute, obviously none of these characters would fit, I said about Franz just as a joke.
Mr. Tarzan 16 Jun, 2021 @ 12:13pm 
Bretonnia is like a mix of medieval England and France. King Arthur surely didn't have the same French accent as the characters in the game I presume :)
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 16 Jun, 2021 @ 8:44am 
@Mr. Tarzan
Bretonnia it's a cosplay on legend of King Arthur, so I don't think this is the right association either ~
Mr. Tarzan 16 Jun, 2021 @ 8:13am 
Hmm, Karl definitely resembles Otto Von Bismarck to me, uniting, in the game, what is essentially Germany haha. So maybe I'd say King Louen
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 16 Jun, 2021 @ 7:49am 
@Mr. Tarzan
Idk, maybe Karl? He's 'Franz' after all ))
Mr. Tarzan 16 Jun, 2021 @ 5:52am 
Who's actually the most 'Napoleon' like character in Warhammer? ┐(・・ )┌
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 16 Jun, 2021 @ 5:33am 
@Ron Swansonhart
Perhaps, but criticism by words about Napoleon would bite me in any language)
Though I also just explained the sense of my mod, large text is not an insult. Those who aren't interested in reading it not obliged to, so I don't see a problem here. Let's somehow get through this already.
Swansonhart 16 Jun, 2021 @ 2:45am 
For the record, SootyTX and Settlerking didn't sound like jerks in the discussion below. Seems like the mod author has a language barrier that makes him misinterpret the tone of criticism. Just my 2 cents. Have a good day.
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 15 Jun, 2021 @ 9:31am 
@SkeetWalker
Well, actually that's the idea - give an opportunity for even unfriendly factions to make treaties by having enough power.

But okay, catch - https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2517683957
I hope you will be satisfied with this numbers, because if I make them even lower, it will be almost no difference with zero value, but for that there are already quite a few other mods.
AlecBaldwinplayingwithapistol 14 Jun, 2021 @ 4:39pm 
Any chance for a light version? Maybe like halved positive values? Love the mod, im just not experiencing loads of conflict mid to late game, it seems to negate the hatred between teams like skaven and wood elves when you get to a certain strength
Mr. Tarzan 29 May, 2021 @ 2:58am 
I would definitively agree with KungPung on this whole ordeal. Anyhow, it's a really cool concept that I think makes sense in the context of this game. Thank you making this, I'm looking forward to testing it out!
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 15 May, 2021 @ 8:45am 
Zero is not my favorite number.

This can be considered as the concept of this mod )
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 15 May, 2021 @ 8:39am 
@KungPung
Pity that there is no possibility to put hearts on comments, because it's a little embarrassing-uncomfortable for me to write a response to praise, but also not good to just ignore the comments which are most pleasant to me.
I'm really glad that someone is supporting my side and that someone even liked reading all this ^^'

Still, at least this my mod I find objectively useful, I not only posted it for others who maybe will need it, but and I myself now always turn it on for my campaigns, and feel it's more comfortable this way. On the other hand reworking of public order system, which was given as an example to me, I think although at first glance looks interesting, in practice it only makes getting a high public order much more difficult, when with a low indicator it gives superfluous debuffs to important aspects.
KungPung 14 May, 2021 @ 6:48pm 
@settlerking &sootyTX
You guys must never have been insulted in your life’s if you take offense by what the mod creator wrote. If it was me I’d be grateful for the lengthy answer to your original criticism: reading it helped me understand more the reasoning behind the mod. Ppl these days got to stop being such snowflakes… smh… thank you for your work to PenetRATion!
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 10 May, 2021 @ 3:01am 
@Strip
Well, I'm flattered if it's not sarcasm)
After all, it's a pretty simple mod, I spent a lot more time on this work: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2474898049
Yes, everything here has a certain specialization, but maybe this will also inspire you to play ~
Strip 7 May, 2021 @ 6:29pm 
Thank you so much for this mod, you made me wanna play the game again !!!

@Settlerking
Fortunately not all such a comment fighters for justice in their special understanding. hEaLtHy people will simply use the mod if they like it, pass by if not, or write their opinion in more calmed and friednly form, like the past users did it. If someone decided to show off and present himself as a great sage who exactly knows how it was and how it must be as an irrefutable truth, then the first thing is to pin up him, and the second is to write an even larger sheet in refutation. This order is natural for the Internet .
I don't specially obliged to behave maximally polite and worry too much about not offend someone in any way, because even if the rating of mod deteriorates, it won't matter much, though I'm working on larger mods, I still won't get anything from this in any case, so I can act at will and boldly defend my point of view.
If I want to speak out, I have every right to do it, as well as everyone else, and it's not for you to tell me what I need.
Gooby King 28 Apr, 2021 @ 8:03am 
when the first thing you write is a condecending bit about someone being a "know it all" you aint dealing with it in a healthy or friendly way. You dont need to explain everything for everyone, just say you don't agree and feel happy with it in its currrent state. I say this as someone who has published both mods and other creative works on the internet before. Youre just gonna get burned out or alienate anyone that checks out your page.
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 27 Apr, 2021 @ 9:43pm 
@Settlerking
And what the problem, did I cuss out him and defiled his ancestors or something?
I just explained in detail why my mod is arranged in this way, what meaning I put into it and why another approach isn't really necessary in my opinion due of both logical and technical conditions. Since the essence of the appeal was somewhat vague, I had to paint all the possible aspects that might be affected.
A person who talks about history shouldn't be afraid by a large text. And I think this is better than ignoring the message or just saying "ok". Such a voluminous answer on the contrary speaks of the attention with which I treat this criticism.
So I think here it's rather necessary to learn how to give criticism, and if that's based on such things as history and structure of game mechanics, then you should have some awareness about it.
Gooby King 25 Apr, 2021 @ 2:11am 
jesus, the man wrote the mildest criticism imaginable. please learn to take criticism my dude, this aint healthy
Gabriel Corporan 18 Apr, 2021 @ 2:50pm 
If the SootyTX user doesn't like the Mod, don't use it.
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 17 Apr, 2021 @ 3:00am 
@SootyTX
Just the fact is that very few people like such "historicism" and lovers to show off their knowledge to tell everyone how it was, this often causes irritation.
However, I didn’t truly insult you in any way, I didn’t even say "idi nahooi" to you, so you shouldn't be very upset. )
3 messages really look weird, I originally wanted to write this in one, but due to the character limitation, I had to do this ~
SootyTX 16 Apr, 2021 @ 5:30pm 
Wow, someone got his panties in a bunch...what the heck did I say to warrant all that? If you thought the 'way it is done here' comment was directed at your mod it most certainly wasn't, it was aimed at the way CA implemented the whole great power system.

Calm down dude
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 16 Apr, 2021 @ 10:14am 
I also do not deny that this is a simple mod that makes only a small change in diplomatic relations. Yes, some modders like to steam up and make something even more amazing than developers do themselves, but I'm satisfied with the current state of this mod, also I'm not a programmer, I just somehow slightly learned modding only by scrutining other works, and the CA doesn't pay me to spend a lot of time on global rework a bunch of game mechanics up to changing AI ​​itself to make everything right instead of them.
But if ~you~ are ready to go for such a feat - you are welcome, learn modding and do everything as it should be in your opinion.
✨🏮Red Moon's Glow🏮✨  [author] 16 Apr, 2021 @ 10:14am 
I agree that enemies may envy foreign lands, but nevertheless, their behavior in this situation is too stupid. What does negative diplomatic attitude mean in Total War? - the leader of the faction swears in full and pours shit on you without any ethics, even if he is an insignificant gnat in your background, and at the first opportunity he will hasten to kill himself against your walls, that's all.
Not that this is such a huge problem, but it is still sometimes annoying that it is very difficult for a large developed empire to make some alliance with anyone. Personally, I find this totally not historical and completely absurd, this is not how it works. And actually, this feature doesn't pretend to any logical rationale, but is only needed to complicate the player's gameplay in the later stages of campaign. So whatever you say, unification against a common enemy has nothing connected with it in any way, this theme is expressed in other diplomatic mechanics.

@SootyTX
Please, say hello from me to Napoleon and to the all smaller nations until the mid 20th century, as it seems that you be familiar with them personally to perfectly know "how it actually worked" respected historian )
Nations and world powers united against a common threat, but never one weak country itself went to a knowingly losing war against an absolutely superior empire in order to simply doom its own people to death and lose all their native lands, as the AI ​​factions do in Total War, because this is complete idiocy. And this is largely due to such factors as "Great Power".
SootyTX 15 Apr, 2021 @ 7:31pm 
IRL the "Great Power' penalty makes a lot of sense, and until the mid 20th century was how it actually worked, which works with the tone and style of Warhammer. A huge period of European history revolved around the smaller nations teaming up against the 'big power' of the moment, France under Napoleon for example.

However, the way it is done here is clumsy and too directional. It should be much more along the lines of the recent change to public order, forcing a trend towards zero rather than the current 'everyone is mad at me'. If you could make that happen, that would be a real step forward.
