Natural Disasters in EB

I've had one plague! Hehe, I almost cried when it happened tho. Cos it was in Athens and two family members died. Athens is usually my "school" for young ones.

In the current public release they are rare to nonexistant though.

I thought they were only for the next release.

Well, in the current release natural disasters are either rare (e.g., plagues) or nonexistant (volcanoes/earthquakes apparently). As I said, they will be more accurate in the next release.

Well, I've had at least two plagues in every campaign, sometimes a lot more, and I've lost several valuable family members due to volcanos in my Romani campaigns. So I'd say natural disasters definitely work, but plagues are by far the most common.

Just remember these two words when you keep getting plagues and earthquakes: Blame Teleklos.

Not for the two volcanoes on the Italian peninsula. Mount Vesuvius has frequent eruptions, but to damage is ever been done. So it was for Mount Etna too, but recently in my campaign its eruption caused damages in Messana and Syrakusai, and almost destroyed a free men army, or rebels, what ever.

Cheers.

The volcanos are definitely active enough. You just don't get a message. You only notice that it has been active when you have to retrain the Capua garrison for no apparent reason. Plagues are ok, I sometimes have them. Floods don't happen (which is ok, since their bugged anyway), as do earthquakes and storms. They could be reimplemented imo.
