This is viable; what did you have in mind?[/QUOTE]

One event to turn Ulster back to Catholic, with the related penalties, then an event for ENG (or SCO?) granting them the population that has fled/been expelled.

Definitely no chance of some sort of Irish dominated UK then? :(

There's nothing (except the AI, hopefully ;)) stopping the Irish from conquering the British Isles, but I am wholeheartedly against IRE ever becoming SCO or ENG - it just doesn't make sense whatsoever.

AFAIK, SCO can become ENG if it owns London and ENG doesn't exist. This is a strange idea as it is, but it's to ensure ENG exists in most games and a Scotland-dominated Union is at least feasible; the Irish declaring themselves the Kingdom of Scotland, however, is not. :)

Indeed, Scotland able to form Great Britain (not England per se) is for ENG tag to be in game if something goes wrong with AI. It is also an alternative for Scottish players.

Actually the first option says take the Crown of England. Second choice is form Great Britatin. :p
 
With the Ulster event, I think EIR should get 3 options

A: Convert back to Catholic, lose pop and stability, perhaps a revolt
B: Do nothing
And the slightly controversial one
C: Release Ulster as a vassal - risky though if the AI misbehaves

Yes... but Scotland is already Great Britain in both cases because of the Act of Union just before. :p
Second choice is ruling Great Britain from London (but still SCO tag, for players who don't want to become ENG).
 
Philippe, couple of things whilst I remember:

Don't submit any of my other stuff until I say so; there's event texts that need finishing and I need to go over them and make sure everything's finished. Doesn't look like the Invasion of 1475 sequence will make the last beta (if there's another...)... for 1.57, then... :)

Finally, from what I've read of the new Yorkist/Lancastrian stuff in the latest beta, the original Edward V (046005) is unused. Originally I had replaced him with Gloucester's reign as Lord Protector, and had Richard III (as king) as a separate monarch (046046) for if he accepts the crown in June 1483.

However, Richard as Lord Protector is now 046006, meaning (AFAIK) that 046005 is effectively unused as Edward V is now 046047.

Just thought I'd point that out (please, correct me if I'm wrong) as 046005 can either be merged with an existing monarch or deleted and considered a free entry.

Speaking of...

	}
}

Code:

	}

	}
	rank = 0
	movement = 3
	fire = 2
	shock = 3
	siege = 0
	dormant = yes
}

Another alternative would be to use 046005 as 'The Prince Regent (George III)' as the historical Regent from 1811 - 1820. This would only need a basic event with a wakemonarch command...

Anyway, I'm back at Uni from tomorrow so I'll only be on the forums every now and then... I'll post updates when I get chance/when I'm at home, however. :)

EDIT: Sorry if some of the brackets are wrong... :eek:o

Just a brief change here, for the Readeption (1470/1):
Code:
historicalmonarch = {
	id = { type = 6 id = 046003 }
	startdate = {
		day = 3
		month = october
		year = 1470
	}
	deathdate = {
		day = 11
		month = april
		year = 1471
	}
	name = "[COLOR=Yellow]Richard Neville (Henry VI)[/COLOR]" #was Henry VI
	DIP = [COLOR=Yellow]4[/COLOR]
	ADM = [COLOR=Yellow]5[/COLOR]
	MIL = [COLOR=Yellow]5[/COLOR]
	dormant = yes
	Remark = "[COLOR=Yellow]Warwick the Kingmaker, Earl of Warwick & Salisbury[/COLOR]"
}

Article here - Henry held no power whatsoever during the Redeaption - he was a delusional puppet king paraded around the streets of London in order to lend an air of legitimacy to Warwick's brief rule.

AFAIK, the event text should not need altering; presumably Warwick is mentioned in it anyway...

This last event seems to be bugged! According to event ENG_17029 ACTIONNAME164253A should be on the place of ACTIONNAME164253C, shouldn't it? And, why don't you use the same strings included in 17029? They are just duplicates in text.csv.

It's not bugged, Bordic. This event is a reworked version of 17029, allowing for a longer, semi-ahistorical Yorkist dynasty. I've swapped actions A & C from the original event, simply so the AI will be more likely to support France under Edward V, and oppose them under Henry VIII. It's just flavour, and to guide the AI ahistorically...

The event text has also been changed (read back a few pages), and therefore is not a duplicate.

@mandead: are posts #3060 and #3116 ready now?
No, I need to polish them and add any missing event text that needs doing. I think France should have another event for the 1475 sequence, but I'm not sure. I'll let you know here as soon as both sequences are finished.

I'm getting my PC brought up to my new flat (probably) on Sunday, so I shall certainly be able to finish it then if I haven't beforehand. :)

EDIT: post #3128 can be submitted as soon as is convenient...

Shouldn't it be a NOT reformed OR protestant Ulster?

Also, I think grating Ulster independence should warrant a stability hit as well.
 
YodaMaster said:
There is no date for the event and Ulster can't revolt after 1550 in revolt.txt.

Should I add an end date onto the event? I intend it to be able to happen up to the end of the game.

Also, maybe we should allow ULS to revolt until 1820 - it's possible that the Reformed population wouldn't want to be under Irish Catholic rule.

Then go with the standard 1419 - 1820 sequence.

The problem here is that Ulster will revolt from English Protestant rule in times of rebellion...
