Event strikes me as bs

[Beorn]

So I am looking at the "natural born killer in ___ battalion" event.

I can make him a commando (+9 enforcement) or a warrior knight (+10). Either one causes trouble for me.

So, how can the promotion of one soldier have that kind of impact on the nation... yet, such an impactful decision lacks a "none of the above" option? This strains the bounds of plausibility.

And unless I am missing something, you do not actually get a commando or a warrior knight.

You ACTUALLY get an unit feat in such regiment/battalion etc. You have to take a closer look and read the description to know where the unit is going to spawn.

I also dont like than promoting a soldier has a heavier impact in the politics of the nation than other events, I would suggest you to make an balance request on the suggestions subforum.

Shows the political importance of propaganda around individual soldiers.

the troop event outcomes are outsizedly huge, and I really, really wish they came with three options each (one each for the three profile categories) while having their general effect cut in half

That does help. But I still think you should be able to decline a gesture, at least at a level that the nation is watching.

If everything always came with a nice option for you, where would be the fun?

No need to be annoying.

Lots of situations in life and in games, there is no good option. But when a soldier performs well in your unit, it is odd to set it up so that all the leader's options involve turning it into a national event.

It would, however, be reasonable to have an option to have the unit's morale suffer for this soldier's achievements being ignored.
