at this point i'm really looking forward to prepare carefully so i can start without a pet..

There will probably be a mod out in the near future that nerf-bats the bonded animal death penalty from -15 to -3 or -5ish.

If someone else doesn't make it by the time I get around to playing A13 (which will be after other mods get updated) I'll make the mod myself, as someone who enjoys using animals in combat; (especially cyber augmented ones using the animal surgery mod) taking a huge penalty everytime a warg or boar gets killed would just make animal warfare more of a drawback than a viable tactic.

That really shouldn't be necessary from my plays, the bond (other than the starting animal) takes a decent amount of time to form, so for live stock it shouldn't matter to much, trained fighting dogs might be a bit different.

could you could un-master ( lol ) the combat pets during downtime so a bond takes much longer to form and only set master when combat is about to happen? i know thats a lot of micro depending on amount of animals in your war tribe but might save on the negative effects when animals die in combat

[mumblemumble]

Heres a question, are bonds a static "x amount of time gathered dealing with x animal", or Is there any possibility for the bonding progress to dissipate? if someone works very rarely with an animal along 5 years, will they establish a bond, or will the small interactions spaced apart mean the bond never forms?

I ask because, it might be nice to have a way to breed / train animals without bonds forming somehow, for the purpose of combat animals...
