WAR OF SUCCESSION IN NAPLES -> Angevin Approach
In one of my games it occurred following:
after PRO262005 "the inheritance of Naples" triggered NAP239009 "the battle over Naples" France happened to annex Provence.
It happened that Naples no more vassallized by Provence and with Renatus (should be corrected in Renato or René d'Angiò) on the throne, without having been vassalized by event by Aragon (remember that Provence doesn't exist, so PRO262009 and PRO262010 can't be fired and can't fire ARG111014 "Aragon vassalizes Naples" and NAP239010 "the battle over Naples") receive, after René's death, Alfonso I as king.
Alfonso I remained on the throne well after 1458 even if his timelimit was 27 june 1458!
For sure it is due to the fact that the Trestamara kings were all slept except him by event (NAP239009) and the first King of Lorraine Vaudemont is René II in 1480!!!!! So Alfonso lives more then 22 years over historical age...I could arrive only until 1461 because Aragon forceannexed Naples...
In fact according to what happened-> last vassalization was to Provence, Naples should have Angevins Kings from 1435 to the game's end!!
According to this
http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4467926&postcount=57 I think we have only those solutions:
in monarchs.nap
1-using a modified non dormant monarch n. 06731 René d'Anjou 1442-1480 as shown after;
2-putting monarchs n. 06732 (Alfonso I) dormant and the following Trastamara Kings for the period until 1480!
in agceep_specific_naples
- if monarch n. 06731 (René) is modified as non dormant and 06732 (Alfonso I) is non dormant (that monarch will go to the throne for the timelimit assigned and then the next monarch if any left awake will follow for the remaining time otherwise Alfonso will die only in 1480) -> add a sleepmonarch 06732 (Alfonso I) in event NAP239009
OTHERWISE
- if 06731 (René) is non dormant and 06732 (Alfonso I) is dormant -> add command wakemonarch 06732 (Alfonso I) in event NAP3660_b.
(note that NAP239010 has a wakemonarch 06732 command in it, the sleepcommand in action_* is unnecessary because unmodified 07631 neither can be slept if the monarch is already living nor can sleep the monarch no. 06732 (deathdate in 06731 is the same as the startdate in 06732!).
Code:
#-----------------------------------------------------#
# Alternative Kings of Naples #
# - the House of Anjou #
#-----------------------------------------------------#
historicalmonarch = {
id = { type = 6 id = 05413 }
startdate = {
day = 3
month = july
year = 1442
}
deathdate = {
day = 10
month = july
year = 1480
}
name = "Renatus di Anjou"
DIP = 8
MIL = 5
ADM = 6
dormant = yes
}
should be REMOVED FROM MONARCHS.NAP and the following MONARCH should be used only:
Code:
#-----------------------------------------------------#
# Anjou kings of Naples
#-----------------------------------------------------#
historicalmonarch = {
id = { type = 6 id = 06731 }
startdate = {
day = 2
month = february
year = 1435
}
deathdate = {
day = 3
month = june
year = 1442
}
name = "Renatus di Anjou"
DIP = 8
MIL = 5
ADM = 6
}
That monarch should be also NON-DORMANT and with deathdate lengthened from 3 june 1442 to 10 july 1480.
In that way if Alfonso I of Aragon (NAP monarch n. 06732) is woken up by event he will automatically exclude René 06731!
Code:
historicalmonarch = {
id = { type = 6 id = 06731 }
startdate = {
day = 2
month = february
year = 1435
}
deathdate = {
day = 10
month = july
year = 1480
}
name = "Renato d'Angiò"
DIP = 8
MIL = 5
ADM = 6
}
The modifications can work only if PRO exists, otherwise Naples can only have an Angevin dinasty, independently if Aragon vassalize Naples or not. If Aragon force-annexes Naples and then Naples is made independent after 1458, The Trastamara kings like Ferrante I (monarch n. 06733 the follower of Alfonso I) would be awake because they are non-dormant by default!
the problem is an independence of Naples (also from Aragon) between 1442 and 1458 in which, if my proposal is accepted, René of Anjou ( the modified nap monarch n. 06731) remains as a non-dormant default monarch, but since Aragon cannot vassalize by event (PRO doesn't exist in 1442) they can only force-annex Naples and then use the default Trastamara kings if Naples is released!
The following event is better suited for my modified Renato d'Angiò, in which Alfonso I sleeps him taking the throne and when Alfonso I is dead a woken up Ferrante I should avoid Renato d'Angiò to take back the throne.
Code:
#The battle over Naples (1442)#
event = {
id = 239010 #Trigged by PRO262009/262010
random = no
country = NAP
name = "The battle over Naples"
desc = "Following pressure from Aragon and their supporters in Naples, king René has relinquished the crown of Naples and accepted the Aragonese claim."
style = 1
action_a ={
name = "So be it..."
command = { type = sleepmonarch which = 06731 } #René I
command = { type = wakemonarch which = 06732 } #Alfonso I
}
}
IMO and in order to work perfectly that event needs to neutralize the event NAP239010 waking up all the Trastamara Kings slept and sleeping again all the Angevins dormant by default !
The whole problem could be solved in a SIMPLER way but VERY DETERMINISTIC-> Aragon/Spain oriented:
If PRO desn't exist in year 1442 there should be a NAP event which neutralizes NAP239009 in the other way around (waking up the slept Trestramara monarchs and sleeping the Angevins monarchs) and triggers ARG111014, "ARG vassalizes NAP"!!!
I have to discuss also about that event which follows in the timeline the events PRO262005 and PRO262006 both firing in 1442:
Code:
#Anjou is Returned to Duke Rene I
event = {
id = 170032
random = no
country = FRA
trigger = {
event = 2200008 #Bedford is Granted the Duchy Lands of Anjou ->ENG
owned = { province = 412 data = FRA }
control = { province = 412 data = FRA }
atwar = no
}
date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1445 }
offset = 60
deathdate = { day = 31 month = december year = 1450 }
name = "Anjou is Returned to Duke Rene I"
desc = "Having recovered the heartland of Anjou's estates, Charles VII rewarded his long time ally and friend Duke Rene I of Anjou and restored to him his estates in Anjou and Maine"
action_a = {
name = "Grant Rene I his lands as agreed"
command = { type = independence which = PRO }
command = { type = trigger which = 262031 } #Maine and Anjou are Recovered! ->PRO
}
}
That event needs to have the same commands written in PRO262005 and PRO262006 i.e. vassalization of NAP and addition of the cores on Naples, Apulia, Sicily and Messina and more alliance between PRO and NAP.
As I pointed out before, René d'Anjou should be a DEFAULT King of Naples from 1435 to 1480 and he being also Duke of Provence, a NAP vassal and allied to PRO is warmly needed!
EDIT: my suggestions posted in Italy thread 644,671 and 677 and vassal-breakvassal thread...
