Help! My Generals Are Dying!!!

[The Shadow One]

Okay, I'm playing MTW as the Novogrod faction. I have conquered most of Asia Greater. Now my generals are dying by assasins. I'm losing about one a turn now. The game tells me to beef up security, but how do you beef up security? I can't even see the assasins.

Help!

There are several things you can do. Make sure the provs that this is happening in have border forts and watchtowers. You can try putting a spy and an assassin in the region I think they help root out an enemy assassin. They end up working like counter-intelligence. Emmisaries and religious variant of a bishop might help as well. You can also beef up the military force that is there, I think this reduces the chance of a successful assassination attempt against your general.

Other than that eventually the assassins will fail and the enemies high valor assassin will get caught.

Yeah, or, build the KGB counter intelligence-agency (requires the relquiry and the Stalin Leader emerges event).

lol.

No, but on a serious note as the first reply said you can use:

- Watchtowers
- Forts (available after watchtower)
- Spies (need Brothel i think)
- Assassins (counterspy)

Im usually not to bothered if my Zero star generals die because at the end of the day they are not essential.

Killing a 4+ star general is something only a Legendary Geisha can do with confidence. And as we all know, there are none in MTW.

Even if your general dies, hes replaced by someone with thte same stats. It is only bad if they attack right afterward for if its a orice or king. I think you type some cammand, like green general or something so they get replaced by lesss competent people.

I believe this is only the case when you get the message that your general died of old age... But if assassinated he is just gone for good...

This is a handy tool to discourage attacks from the enemy or pave your way of conquest by killing the enemy generals with 5* assassins from Syria...
Once I did it with the Sicilians and there was no HRE general with even 1*
