[2.2.1.1] Prepared invasion is broken

[donnyb83]

Went two years w/out any event troops joining the invasion. After leaving the game about 1year/6months into the prepared invasion, i still saw 0 events for this. This includes the "your invasion failed" event if you do not start the war. IE this event (character_event = {id = 62310)

save about 1year in: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7rlk34zrzg6emz1/Ironman_Oppland.ck2?dl=0
save just after the event should have ended: https://www.dropbox.com/s/najl7wpkj6dvipf/Ironman_Oppland.ck2?dl=0

I've looked at the first save game you provided and it caused a lot of panic in the office here since we had problems ourselves to spawn event troops. But we after some investigation it shows that you do not get any event troops if you have x4 more troops than the target you are preparing to invade. It's simply not stated anywhere that it is the case.

You might want to review the pre-reqs for valid targets in a prepared invasion then. I was unable to start one up against west francia in that game (game claimed he didn't own between 9-40 provences in any kingdom) so i planned to use essex to raise the troops then use them against west francia for a county conquest on zeeland. (my preferred target was k_frisia (which should have fell into the 9-40 range and was all owned by francia))
