I myself thought that the way raids and assaults reduce enemy forces seems backwards. How are you reducing Enemy forces by 2 if you kill so far less than them.
It also makes Assault worthless for anything except purposefully gaining more XP. Sorta like a hard mode version.

Assault is when you bring vehicles. Raid just puts you in melee range with no vehicles. You're still killing the same number of troops in both.

Nope raid reduces enemy count more.

I never said anything about enemy count, the enemy count drop is different, but the actual amount your marines are going up against are the same.

Name's Almire ingame.

5.5 I've actually tried all of these before, but not really very effective.
Run away: does not always work. I did this tons of times but after a while(especially waiting) they often come back.
Killing them: ...really slow and difficult
Let them wait: sometimes they just follow anyway. Pretty strange behavior.

If you really want to get rid of them quickly and don't care if they disappear forever, just exterminate them with dfhack.

I have an issue with my custom chapter's Iron Fathers. They keep multiplying out of control, until eventually the entire chapter's infantry has been replaced entirely by Iron Fathers. Where the hell do they come from?

Do you have their training turned on? Training specialists draw units from the rank and file.

I dunno if a lot of misses and no damage attacks just aren't being printed, but it was the oddest fight I've seen, as half of my army simply did nothing while it was going on. It's even odder than watching Tau Stealth Suits dodge 294 bolter shots 4 turns in a row But if Stormbolters have a limited range, one would think they'd have a crush attack for their treads at least.

I interpret that as that since treads don't turn on a dime, the daemonettes are just walking around them until someone got a line of sight that didn't involve blowing up another Rhino.

welp after playing this game for 10 hours....

MY MARINES ARE GODS currently trying to do training excercise for all my scout recruits, sending them alone to quell ork and necron worlds, seems to work after you give them mk 7 armor, and bolters, instead of their insanely useless sniper rifle.
until i try to save and i cant... without the save being errored out.

Have you tried saving over the save? The last time I saw a error save I just saved over it.

So, I took a mission from an NPC, accomplished it, then another, similar... then I ran into the Investigate Cult mission. I arrived at the site, explored a house... found nothing of interest at all. Then I checked the code to see what was I supposed to find. Nope, not there. What do? Would cheating work?

Did you see a priest's diary?

They get returned to the nearest city, potentially losing a few characters.
