Yes, the new nation-based militia is a pleasant surprise. Part of me always wanted to buy low-end soldiers for thematic purposes but the opportunity cost made it unappealing. Now I no longer have to make that decision!

The new thematic militia event is great!

Now, please, get rid of the regular militia event!

Pretty please?

This is great, I second the get rid of regular militia, its far more thematic to get your low end national troops as a random event.

The normal militia was kept as there are still nations that doesn't have their own unit events.

I doubt anyone would cry if they suddenly no longer got any militia events.

Sad that event modding in not in the cards though, so many possibilities. Are poptype and non-national site recruitment modding also major technical hurtles?

During the development of Dominions_3 I requested the option for modding of events, but it must have been too complex. Hopefully it will become available for Dominions_4.

I agree with Meglobob and others on removing the generic militia event.

That also means LA Ermor will never receive those upkeep-leaching militias?
Cheer for this small yet great move of improvement!

the militia event is quite funny, as he creates place for strange diplomacy. ("Is it okay for you when i attack you with lots of militia in province 153?")

but i would also second his removal, or move him to misfortune: "some peasants have declared themselve part of our army, and are now eating the bigger part of our supplies"
