Battle Brothers

Characters are rated according to their attribute scores (Hitpoints, etc.). The score is made of both current values (from base and modifiers like traits) and level up values (influenced by talents). Each attribute score is normalized and weighed according to its default starting value and level up range. The results can thus be used to fairly compare attributes and characters. Depending on the origin, the comparison is made using different roles that favor a specific set of attributes. The role for which a character scores best is kept to evaluate its strength which is added to the roster strength. If a seed has a better roster strength than the last selected seed it is kept and shown in the log.

DAVKUL CULTISTS


The roles used to rate characters are:
  • Footman = Melee Skill + Melee Defense + Fatigue or Hitpoints (best)
  • Bowman = Ranged Skill + Ranged Defense
  • Billman = Melee Skill + Ranged Skill

A seed can be selected even if not better if the score is > 4,700.

LONE WOLF

The roles used to rate characters is: Footman = Melee Skill + Melee Defense + Fatigue or Hitpoints (best)
The Lone Wolf must have these traits: Iron Lungs + Sure Footing. More trait pairs can be added but the file inside the archive must be edited. At the top, find:
local LWTraits = [
["iron_lungs", "sure_footing"],
["", ""],
];

Any number of pairs can be added by replacing and adding more ["", ""],. For example:
local LWTraits = [
["iron_lungs", "sure_footing"],
["iron_lungs", "huge"],
];

Each pair has its own rating.
A seed can be selected even if not better if the score is > 1,700.

NORTHERN RAIDERS

The roles used to rate characters are:
  • Footman = Melee Skill + Melee Defense + Fatigue or Hitpoints (best)
  • Bannerman (Monk) = Resolve + Melee Skill


A seed can be selected even if not better if the score is > 5,000. Barbarian tattoo textures are loaded for each cycle which will crowd the log (use the search function to find seeds).

    Is there a tool similar to this except it looks at the map? On the website where people can post their seeds, one of the posts included a screenshot of what looked like some program analyzing the map. It listed the number of each building as well as stuff no person could manually figure out, such as the number of pixels wide the map is or something random like that. I'm trying to track down what that was.

      Hey, Markus!
      This is the original tool: https://www.nexusmods.com/battlebrothers/mods/126. Someone (I think wlira) made a website data bank for the thousands seeds that were generated with it. There's a discussion on Reddit.
      I myself took inspiration from a mod that was shared on the BB discord server and improved it.
