Summary
Peace and security must be won by protecting your people from outlaws and bandits, and punishing villagers who step outside the law.
This mod adds a defensive element to the game: you must build Keeps, Towers, Walls and Gates to protect your people from outlaws and bandits. Workplaces built outside the security perimeter will be attacked and villagers will leave to become Outlaws.
Security
The Constable oversees security and works in a Constable's Keep. Guards stationed in Guard Towers patrol the streets to prevent trouble. You place Patrol Arrows where you want the guards to patrol.
Every Keep, Tower, Wall, Gate, and Guard adds Security to an area. If a workplace is too far away from security buildings or a patrol route, after two weeks the workers are tempted to steal food, goods and gold. When this happens, villagers become Outlaws. Anyone who has been unemployed for more than two weeks is also at risk of becoming an Outlaw.
Outlaws
These villagers leave the town and go to live in Outlaw Camps. They will try to steal food, goods and gold from unprotected workplaces. You prevent stealing by providing Keeps, Towers, and Guards near workplaces. You can see which buildings require more security by clicking on any security building and going into Edit mode. Green buildings are fully protected; Orange are targets for theft; and Red are at risk of encouraging new outlaws.
There are two ways to catch outlaws:
• If there is nothing to steal, outlaws will come back to the village to buy food and get water. By placing patrols near markets and wells, you can question villagers and catch outlaws.
• You can place a Rally Point and staff it with guards who will go out and destroy outlaw camps. They will catch any outlaws who are at the camp when they attack.
Captured outlaws become Prisoners in the Constable's Keep. After serving a week's punishment, they are released as unemployed newcomers.
Bandits
Mounted bandits from beyond your borders will sometimes approach the outskirts of your town. Bandits steal from workplaces and recruit villagers to become outlaws. Bandits are only frightened away if there are guards or soldiers nearby when they raid. The best protection against bandits to have walls surrounding the town, with well-guarded gates. Bandits will not raid if they encounter guards or soldiers along their route.
Compatibility
- You can use towers and keeps from the Lord Manor, Wooden Keep, Giant Gate Masterpiece, Stone Gate Set mod, and Frontier Fortifications mod as guard towers and to generate security for the surrounding area. The patrol arrow has also been added to those buildings (found at the very end of the building part list).
- You should only load one of the Security mods, this one or the old version, in a single game.
