Did you intend something like "Hurray we managed to fend off the invaders - but now we decided to meekly convert to their religion because the danish were always right?"
No, more along the lines of a slower and gradual change by cultural influence. "We like to remain independent, but Luther may have had a point", or something like that. Plus, if, like in my game, the intent was to stay out of the Danish political orbit from the very start to the extent possible (cancel vassalage, maybe eventually stay out of alliances), there is already a different dynamic at work. That way, Protestantism wouldn't just be the religion of the political enemy. Perhaps there could be a certain chance that Norwegian provinces could turn Protestant. If a certain # do in fact go in that direction, Norway gets an event to choose to convert at the national level or stick with Catholic while either suffering the existence of non-state religion provinces in some places or else hope to convert them back.
It doesn´t? Did you never try to conquer and then become Denmark as Norway then? Or at least reclaim Greenland?
I did colonize one part of Greenland, but otherwise, no. Though, I should note, that was part of a self-imposed rule to not conquer Scandinavian culture provinces (but the finer details of my game goals are beside the point of this thread). So, if the only way to get events is to take up the mantle of some other Scandinavian country, I wouldn't know.
Lithuania forming Russia was *very* likely at least once in history when Lithuania occupied even Moscov itself and put Lithuanias wanted candidate on the throne for a short while
That is correct, but I'm not sure if all of that business-even had it succeed-is the same thing as Lithuania "becoming Russia".
If a norwegian player actually wants to do that then he CAN do that. There´s a button to change the state religion in the game.
Yes, but it could still at least be an option; which I feel justified by some measure of plausibility and the fact that it would it would make the game more interesting. One might just as well say that if a human player wants to play as a Catholic, he can pick the loyal to Rome option in an event.
Feel free to create some plausible events for independent Norway if you'd like. After all, we have a few events for Aragon if it survives.
If I can get the hang of event formatting, I shall probably do something with that. I enjoyed the game that I mentioned earlier, but some events for flavor would have been welcome.
