A request (For the next version of HTTT)

[BonSequitur]

Now that we have the CB system, and the "colonial conquest" CB, can we have it so that whether full annexation of non-OPM countries is defined by the CB, and not by religion? This would be incredibly helpful to modders and in patching up the issues with the current annex=yes system.

The entire CB system is moddable and new ones can be added, so I don't see why not.

Edit: Oh wait, I misunderstood your question. No, I don't think so.

It's a request, not a question. I'm asking if, say, Pope Doomdark could have this feature in 4.1, to make it so that annex=yes is related to CB instead of religion. Thus we could mod it with some precision, and no longer see non-Colonialist nations full-annexing 'savages'' like the Oirat Horde or Mongol Khanate (Which might actually be playable with that change, too!).

Ok, makes sense.

Some CB's do give allowance for less infamy when you annex a country, so turning on the annex=yes via CB seems like a good idea.

I admitadly don't have HTTT, but in INwars with breakaway states (rebel cities that formed their own country) could be completly annexed. Was this carried over? If so, maybe it is defined in the CB files.

That was defined in the save file as "revolutionary_war=yes", and it was part of the wars section, not the CB section. Pity though.....

Considering that one of my current projects is to (1) define Shamanists as non-annexable and Animists as annexable (easy) and (2) redefine all the Animist countries/provinces that I don't think should be annexable as Shamanist, I definitely support this idea!

It should be noted that this is not such a simple request as it seems, since "annexable" has at least two properties besides war resolution: missionaries can change the culture of a province with an annexable religion (so that Mongolia will be filled with Han Chinese fairly early in most games and the AI seems to key in on annexable countries like the proverbial shark sensing blood.

It's a good idea, but I can make no promises.

It's a great idea. It's the one feature I'd want added right now.

I understand that 4.1 is coming down the pipeline soon and there might not be time to think something like this through and implement it, but thanks a lot for the response.
