Sometimes being grossly overpowered in a game can be all kinds of fun. Now generals are something they don't teach you how to make in the in-game tutorials, only in the manual, so I spent a good part of the early game being curb-stomped by every low-level wanna-be dragonguard dick that came along. Omnipotent mage characters were always my favorite to play in NWN so I should play one here. Did you try the Protectors mod? It ended up annoying me to no end because of the difficulty ramp (even on Easy) since they use a severe gimping mechanic (only lvl 1 keeps permitted until you find the upgrades on the map while the enemy factions have no such restrictions) and I wanted the intended experience for my first play through so I went back to vanilla. But it might be a challenge for Warlords Battlecry vets like you that helps cut down on the cheesing.
I havent, actually havent heard of it at all. Ty, will check it out sooner or later, for sure.
Also wouldnt call myself vet, its more like... Me and my friends found the game being sold by a random pirate while we were... 11? And since then, I've been in love with it. The last time i beat campaign was a long, long time ago, and I just cant wait to realize I'm hugely misremembering something.
General wise - hm. Not sure what you are referring to. Generals should be the ultra elite unite of every faction - blackguard for Dark Elves, summoner for Chaos, etc. And you should be able to make one, just like making any other unit, if you meet the requirements ofc. Perhaps you are thinking of the retinue (characters tht follow your hero)? But yeah, putting generals in retinue rocks.
