AGCEEP: Byzantine Empire Events Annex

[Llywelyn]

Excordium:

Once I have everything coded and saved into files, I'll post it to the top of Biges's thread, but for now I was curious about beta testing and feedback on a new event series for BYZ. Unless otherwise noted, all events are by me or are part of Dogwood's original set of events.

If I missed crediting anyone for any idea or lost track of an attribution in the cutting, pasting and editing, please let me know!

To download these events and the files necessary to run them, go here.

[Responses, bugs, criticisms, edits: feel free either to post to this thread or to pm me. Please refer to events by number and not just the title. Thanks! ]

[Moderator note: feel free to append this back to the main BYZ thread, but it seemed like the length of it is scaring some people off and I didn't want to hijack the conversation for what (in Word anyway) is over 300 pages of text]

desc = "The idea that by 1419 the Byzantine Empire could have been saved by anything other than a massive foreign army is probably the biggest fantasy here. Hungary even tried once, and got beaten back handily. The army you already have, your access to major foreign credit, the ease with which you can construct new dromons and cavalry, and - perhaps most of all - your desire to fight back and recover the Empire already bespeak a world where the Palaiologids made less of a mess of things in the 14th century.

That said, some of you are here only because you want to create the glory that was Rome without much regard for the intervening thirteen centuries.

Gibbon would be proud.
(I haven't created any events for this (you nuts) or renamed the armies or leaders, but I did give y'all this event and if one of you wants to script some work and post it to the AGCEEP BYZ thread over at Paradox, I'll add them in.)

Obviously, this is loony, but it's be a really fun event to play. It's also really hard - good luck surviving.

Historically, Demetrios tried to stage a coup before Konstantinos could make it to Constantinople from the Morea. His mother, who always preferred Konstantinos, held him up and the Sultan - who was asked to arbitrate - chose Konstantinos as Ioannes's heir.

Incidentally, all event files should be compatible with AGCEEP numbering as of version 1.37 from 4-28-05 (see here and here.)

EDIT: They weren't, actually, since the ID repository is out of date, but I've gone through and fixed that as of the AGCEEP version listed above.

Of all of these events, I like the Office of Barbarians the most. Please vote for its inclusion into the AGCEEP here or on the main AGCEEP BYZ forum.

We may not be able to get Bush out of office, but here at AGCEEP, your vote does count! Suggestions for and improvements on nonsense codewords are welcome.

The grants were large enough for infantry to support themselves and their families, while cavalry and sailors could afford to hire tenant farmers to work the land. They were always on call for defensive duties, besides their annual spring training and occasional offensives; unlike mercenaries, they would fight very fiercely to protect their land.

Gaining Turkish as a state culture involves incorporating the beys into the government - therefore, all the settlement/leave the Turk alone events for the provinces *do not* add Turkish culture unless the beys maintain their power under the emperor. The player can still gain Turkish culture by inundating his crown prince in it.

The barons and generals yearn to seek glory in recovering the Anatolian heartlands (and their former estates) from the heathen Turk. The civil service and church counter that the recovery of the Balkan provinces from the Western schismatics is much easier and more pressing. Finally, some merchants and intellectuals at court suggest we accept the limitations of our state and rejuvenate Hellas, abandoning our imperial claims forever. Such an abdication would be massively unpopular with the dynatoi, but understood by our people and loved by the West."

This is probably the most contentious bit of these new events, but look at what I've done with the events outside the Balkans and Asia Minor and see if they're unbalanced/wrong-headed. I'm obviously biased but I think the treatment of Italy (given the new Leage of Monferrat event below) is especially appropriate.

At which point, the actual cores are still smaller than the ERE, which is about fair, I think - although do you support the idea of creating cores after the Empire has asserted itself and gotten the Iustinianus event? or maybe a second event granting cores after a century of holding those lands?

I'm open to thoughts on whether this makes it too easy on BYZ - I'm of the mind that it's a) historically accurate (the reaction, not that BYZ could have ever fought off the Turks after 1414) and b) only really has the effect of keeping BYZ bb a little lower. Considering the number of minors BYZ moves through, I'm in support.

But again, I'm a partisan,
