First problem: Not being an expert on English history I can not really make an informed decision on this, but shouldn't the lack of Scottish support make it more likely for Henry VI to be deposed rather than make it impossible?
You're right.

#-#Queen Margaret left England sailing for Berwick intending to seek refuge in Scotland where James II, whose mother had been a Beaufort, was a friend to the Lancastrians. The Scottish Queen, Mary of Guelders sent an envoy to escort Margaret to Dumfries where she and her son were warmly received. Although James II had recently deceased, his son James III, then only a boy, was to govern with the aid of a Regency council. The widowed Queen and the Bishop of St. Andrews headed the Regency council and thus Lancastrian sympathy had rem
ained strong. After a lengthy meeting at Lincluden, the two Queens came to an agreement. Scotland would loan Margaret money and men for Margarets campaign against the Yorkists. In return, Margaret agreed to surrender Berwick Castle, and promised an unguarded and rich southern England which the Scottish troops could plunder mercilessly. In response, thousands of Scottish men-at-arms volunteered for the campaign. Needless to say, Margaret's deal with the Scottish would not be received well in England.

#-#The fighting at St. Albans had destroyed any possibility for political harmony between Yorkist and Lancastrian factions. York found himself outmaneuvered, with no options except once again to resort to force. In a series of brief and rapid campaigns, open warfare broke out once more in England. York himself was killed in the battle of Wakefield in December 1460, but his son and heir Edward earl of March gained a victory at Mortimer's Cross in February the following year. Soon afterwards, the rival armies approached each other at the village of Towton, where in the midst of a blinding snowstorm they fought the largest and most brutal battle of the era. When the bloody day was done, the throne of England was the victor's prize.
With Scottish refusal, result is a desaster for English stability, St. Alban is not represented as an event (and no bonus cash + INF + CAV for England) but battle of Towton is still here for the choice between kings.

Second problem: Even if this is WAD, there still is the problem that Henry VI stays around without ENG21105B being triggered - thus all the Civil War events that assume that Edward IV is king still fire (21107: The Readeption, 21108: Battle of Tewkesbury, 21109: Trial of George Duke of Clarence, 21110: Usurpation of Richard Duke of Gloucester, 21112: Bosworth Field, 2111: Battle of Stoke) which is rather weird, since they keep referring to Yorkist Kings being in power, rather than Henry VI, who is still around in my game, even after ENG21108 (Battle of Tewkesbury), which mentions him being killed... :wacko:
Maybe someone can help me sort this out?
I don't understand, Edward IV is woken in ENG_21105 A... Henry VI should "die" when it happens. There is no problem here.
EDIT: btw, King Edward's Coronation description is too long.
EVENTHIST164077;The coronations of England's Kings had always been splendid affairs, and Edward, with his sense of showmanship, was resolved that nothing should be missing to give the populace the spectacle that it expected.
Edward rode from Lambeth to the Tower to begin the customary Vigil before a coronation. At the gates of the City, he was received by the Lord Mayor and the Aldermen, clad in scarlet robes, accompanied by 400 from the Court of Common Council and the most prominent of the citizens. Edward looked every inch a King, and a King who would give them a lasting peace. In him they saw an end to the troubles that had afflicted the Realm in recent years. The Yorkists had always enjoyed a strong following in London, and they had loyally supported Edward's House with men and money. Once in the Tower, Edward began the process of rewarding his followers. There had been no time to dub more than six men knights, William Hastings and John Howard among them, later to become the first Howard Duke of Norfolk. Now, Edward dubbed no less than 32 of his followers Knights of the Bath. These new knights, wearing the blue gowns of their Order, made a brave sight riding through the City at the head of the procession which brought Edward to his Coronation on Sunday 28th June 1461. T\n \nOn Sunday 28th June 1461, the solemn and splendid ceremony was conducted in Westminster Abbey, the cradle of the English Monarchy, by Thomas Bourchier, Archbishop of Canterbury, who now placed the crown on the first of the three Monarchs whom, in the course of his long life, he was to crown. The Archbishop of York, William Booth assisted him.
\n \nAfterwards, there was the usual coronation banquet when Sir Thomas Dymoke, the hereditary King's champion, rode into the hall in full armour, flung down his mail gauntlet, and challenged anyone who disputed Edward's right to do battle with him. On Tuesday 30th June, he was due to attend a pageant before St Pauls Cathedral where a descending angel blessed him. It was a happy and joyful occasion on a fine summer's day.
\n \nEdward now completed process of rewarding his faithful followers with titles, although in some cases they would have to wait until Parliament had completed the Attainder processes against the defeated Lancastrian Lords before they could receive grants of land to support their new dignities. His 12-year old brother George, newly returned from his refuge in Burgundy, was created Duke of Clarence. His 9-year old brother Richard, who had also come back from Burgundy, became Duke of Gloucester. Henry, Lord Bourchier, the Treasurer, was created Earl of Essex, and particularly bidden to keep a close eye on the Lancastrians of the Earl of Oxford's affinity in the eastern counties. William, Lord Fauconberge was rewarded for his outstanding loyalty to the House of York, and for his valour on the battlefield with the Earldom of Kent. Sir William Hastings, the knight who had been dubbed on the same battle-field, became Lord Hastings of Hastings in Sussex. Sir William Herbert received the first of his promotions as Lord Herbert.;;;;;;;;;;
EDIT2: for safety, I suggest to add:
Code:
monarch = 046002 #Edward IV
in trigger of all events following ENG_164077 if Edward IV is king and remove:
Code:
event = 164077 #ENG: King Edward's Coronation
in corresponding events.
Same for following historical monarchs (slept by default).
All proposed changes for monarchs, in chronological order of events:
046002 #Edward IV in 164078, 164079, 164080, 164081, 164078, 164082, 164089, 164090, 164091, 164092, 164083, 164084, 164085, 164086, 164087 and 164088 (and deathdate of this event should be in september and not december).
046003 #Henry VI in 21107
046004 #Edward IV in 21108 and 21109
046006 #Richard III in 21110
046001 #Henry VI in 21111
Following event ENG_3005 is for Henry VII and trigger is correct afterwards.
