Changing religions is not really a big deal, though. It's good to start with Aesir, max them out and switch to a different religion.
What's the steady supply of Willpower to offset the impact of changing religion? Also, what do you mean with maxing out - your standing with them? I've been atheist since game start and have no idea what religions are good for, do each have at least a few errand quests to keep me busy as I try to upgrade my workshop?

Check wiki for willpower gain options.

You don't need a steady supply really, you shouldn't be switching religions all the time, just turn Aesir at start and then to Atheist is probably fine.

Also, what do you mean with maxing out - your standing with them?
Yes.

have no idea what religions are good for
You get passive effects at high devotion, you can see these in the religion panel at home.

Other than that, they give you money (and power value if you're the leader) kinda like Fort Sera.

No.

Currently only the freshly revamped Catholics have quests.

Thanks, this was in essence what I needed to know. I read the wiki and since I already have good manipulation, charisma, and gain 500 influence every day, bonuses seem pretty small, there are drawbacks and all but maybe Aesir for early game seem more like roleplay. So I just remained Atheist. With my full WEGA squad (some with stealth) it feels like even the Aesir bonuses are past the point where they would be useful. So all there's left is to check the Catholics for the new content and farm those for cash (supposing any cash inflow from other religions ends when you convert)?

Sorry, v0.848a11 changelog tells me I had the knights mixed up. :oops:
Completely different character :rolleyes:
Still have no idea how to do anything about the Knight Order except for getting Drake back.
The latest alpha is A2. Since I am not playing the alpha yet, I cannot tell you for sure whether he is an A2 introduction, but this is the patch notes:

Screenshot 2025-11-10 132807.png
For Ezra (similar to earlier suggestion for Zenobia). Go to random fight, put the following into console and don't forget to catch first enemy
Taking a male enemy, making sure he is in slot one and entering SugarCube.State.active.variables.taken.slot1.id = 357 should be simpler unless he wants the actual experience of fighting and incapacitating Ezra.

It's definitely simpler. You won't have the intended version of Ezra though because code has the following (it's executed when processing captured slave I believe):
Code:
/* EZRA */
<<if _takenid is 357>>
<<set $adisplay to 357>>
<<set $aage to 23>>
<<set _name to "Ezra">>
<<set _lastname to "Waylen">>
<<set $ran_melee to 20>>
<<set $ran_ranged to 50>>
<<set $ran_willpower to 60>>

<<set _blockname to true>>
<</if>>
Does it matter that much? For some it may.

How nice of the developer to give us the T4 version! THANK YOU DEV

I want to ask a few questions:
– Will saves from older versions work without any problems?
– Are university courses available only once, or can they be repeated? ( charisma/manipulation/inteligence/willpower is hard to get :/ )

It should be mentioned somewhere that doing the catholic quests locks you out of the ability to donate rations or raise your standing with the church once you complete the quests.
:mad:

You mean like:
Catholic Faction Overhaul
The Catholic faction has been completely overhauled. Instead of a simple donation framework, the MC can now interact with a living and dynamic faction filled with intrigues, quests, business ventures and interesting NPCs. Train and equip the Catholic Militia, restore the lost Iron Order and embark on missions that offer expeditions, interactions with other factions and multi-endings.
?

You mean like:?
You can get like 18 points in standing doing those quests.
Then, you are blocked from ever donating rations again or raising standing EVER again.
It should at least mention that you will be locked out at that level forever by doing those quests.

To be clearer, in 8.4.7, I was making $788/ day from catholic church.
Untitled.jpg
Loading that save into 8.4.8 a11, calculates it differently so it immediately drops my income to $465
That is a $323/ day loss simply by *upgrading* the html to get new quests.
Then doing the quests locks you out of even making that money back.

Yeah, but your issue was they supposedly didn't tell you this beforehand, which they did do.

I think it was even mentioned elsewhere that standing was reset for those playing existing saves.
Edit:
NOTE! Upon loading 0848 on old saves, the entire Catholic Faction is reset. All Standing, Power Values and Manpower modifications done through donations and political events are nullified.
In the 0.8.4.8 changelog.

Also, you're currently using a leaked alpha release, and IMO maybe should considering witholding judgement until the full release at the very least.
