Lazy's Corrupted Katarin (STAGES + RESKINS) 0.4.1

Your reskin mods are awesome, corset katarin and miaoying plug are top notch, please keep making them, it would be nice to see stage 4 morathi;), she needs to lose that pants and bra asap! 

While I wish Katarin got the kind of attention and detail that Miao Ying did, I can't deny that this is an excellent mod by any standard. Would have liked more bear events.

Disclaimer: the campaign this review is based on was also using the Corrupted Landmarks submod found in the discord, which will affect some aspects.

Katarin's Character models: 10/10, good stuff, much recommend even if you don't do a campaign with the corruption progression enabled.

Story: 9/10, overall good story of the road to the Warp being paved with good intentions, and by the end being reached the person who went down it no longer considers the twisted outcomes being bad.  Good use of foreshadowing/Chekov's Gun in relating to an added side-character.  Only getting dinged because of the occasional small spelling and grammar mistakes.

Progression: 7/108.5/10, the big issue here is that (assuming you're playing Immortal Empires) if Azazel gets taken out before you reach corruption stage 3, you're potentially looking at a long slog across Norsca or across the ocean to Ulthuan to reach N'kari or Sigvald while progressing the corruption story is on pause.  Some story blurb events for Katarin corrupting/getting on side Kostaltyn + Tsar Boris after confederating them may help alleviate this.

Secondary issue (won't be as bad if you're not using Corrupted Landmarks) is corruption.  As Katarin becomes more corrupt, and more corruption is spread through your lands as a result, maintaining order starts becoming a problem in the long game.  This may be alleviated somewhat depending on your playstyle and other mods, but it is potentially crippling in the long game.

Edit: A pair of supplement mods (one for Tzeenchian corruption, and one for Slaaneshi corruption) have just been posted to Lazy's mod discord that provide the corruption adaptation for Katarin, similar to how it's done for Miao.

Positive side is that Katarin's gameplay changes are interestingly done in a way that makes sense.  As she gains power, she also becomes more self-centered and less concerned with those around her.  This makes her more of a melee tank-witch rather than somebody you want to put right behind the lines. 

In conclusion, good mod, good time, but consider waiting for when someone on the discord can finish the corruption adaptation patch/submod for Katarin if you're planning to continue playing after finishing the corruption storyline.

10/10 would blow up my units into chaos monsters again

10/10 model

Can anyone help me with stage 2 triggering? Is it encamping at the three major cities? It seems to be not working for me.

Great Mod

and to answer JesseNL you need progression_framework.pack for the mod to work

Underrated mod compared to LI's others. Adds solid/well written content if you were already planning on doing a Kislev Campaign.

Every time i try to start a campaign she looks like stage 4

I put them in the following order:

-progression

-remove floating crown

-stage 1

-Stage 2

-Stage 3

-Stage 4

Can someone please help me with this?

This mod has a few progression issues.
1 To run it you need a specific skill that is very expensive to use it, it would be better to use the starting abilities that the character definitely uses.
2 Follows from 1 by the time you start the chain of events, you may well leave those lands where you need to trigger corruption. Wouldn't it be better to use all the lands of Kislev as an opportunity for a trigger? Then you will have the opportunity to start the "plot" early, and while you are in the lands of Kislev you will promote it. Because by the time the 2nd stage began, I only 1 launched dilemmas 2 times simply because it was not possible to be in the right regions.

The second stage cannot be triggered

Where is the li_katarin_first.pack？
