Warsim s unique and in-depth procedural race generation system has been developed for years and currently produces a total of94887852 possible races which pretty much means you ll never see the same race twice in fact statistically the races you see will never have been seen by anyone before You might find Seafaring Goblins Fire Orcs Eyeless Elves or the Famed Half-Turtles of the Western Turtledom Orange Ogretaurs Inbred Trench Dwarves and millions more races you couldn t imagine
Each of these races has their own birth rate a level of civility or savageness three unique units each with different battle scores their own laws and societal standards like xenophobia and varying traits depending on their racial prefixes pulling from a large list of unique racial abilities sure to make each playthrough unique
It s not just the races that are massively procedural in Warsim it s also the faces The total number of faces is somewhere in the range of100 Quadrillion which let s face it I ll show myself out it s basically infinite This means that all of those enemy rulers all of those staff members and everyone who appears in your throne room are all faces seen only in that moment by you and never again by anyone else in the world Pretty cool huh
