How about maybe some lend-lease acts from the US? and is the syria puppet/annexation chain going to be in the next version?
Cores only on Anatolia and claims on Syria. In the backstory the Empire held on to Greece, Bulgaria and most of Anatolia over the centuries while Palestine and Syria were controlled by Egypt and Persia. When the British subjugated the Egyptians in late 19th the Empire took the chance and conquered Syria and Palestine, but since it was a thousand years since the areas had previously been Roman there was little enthusiasm among the locals. Thus Byzantium has just as much right to have former territories as cores as modern Turkey has right for cores over former Ottoman territories - none, that is.
Sure, later versions. I imagine that BYZ could sign a separate peace treaty or alternatively create Allied puppet nations that you could annex.I get it. So you could retake the provinces of the old Eastern Roman Empire, but they would only be occupied. Couldn't there be an event creating the 'Eastern Mediterranean Federation' or something, that would give more cores?
For some odd reason my game refuses to launch up the byzantine mod? it launches everything else just fine.....hmmm im going to try a re-installation see if that works... :/
EDIT: yupp my DH refuses to launch this new patch for some odd reason?
EDIT: It appears to be something to do with the event_text file included in config. without it, the game loads
