Will this mean that, when we have an imprisonment reason (and now a way to pardon), will we be able to see what exactly the character did, beyond "Acted dishonorably towards me"?

We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
There are factions to do both of those things, but not at the same time.
I guess I can see the reasoning - assuming the succession law it changes to is elective and it replaces the faction that just changes succession type. It doesn't make a lot of sense to leave the ruler on the throne after a massive armed rebellion.

Ah, the "Fuck this guy" faction.
Sounds pretty gamechanging though, I hope it's reserved for exceptionally ambitious and dastardly vassals.

Best change yet!
Also, can coalitions get changes to something like "defensive pact"? The current name invokes thoughts from EU4's timeline despite not being the same.
What about League as in the Lombard League https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lombard_League

But what is the tyranny threshold for this faction? That is the question.
I would say at least 30 tyranny before they start using the faction.

Pardoned by the liege? This is great. It's the kind of thing that makes even contemporary politics a bit... dirty.
"My liege, your vassal was caught murdering twelve of his kinsmen and plotting to fabricate a claim on the titles of your son."
"Let him go."
"But my liege, he is a horrible man! He was even caught desecrating an altar with his Templar buddies while drinking and carousing with prostitutes!"
"Yes, but he helped me pass a law ending the authority of the council. I'd let him commit adultery with my wife to end the authority of the council."

We're actually trying out changing the name to Defensive Pact and infamy becoming threat.

Hmm if there is a faction for opposing a tyrannical ruler, wonder if there could be factions of loyalists or factions aimed at removing at people around the ruler deemed a threat by the nobility for having a undue influence on the ruler.

Couldn't you before? Purely graphical & sound mods aren't supposed to change the checksum.

Sweet post. I love the Conclave additions but I'll admit the free patch options have resulted in me playing once, then never again since. The idea of shattered retreat attrition in enemy territory is just what I was looking for. It doesn't negate the ability to turn the tides if you're being chased home and adds a whole level of tactics so to when to invade and when to wage war on your own turf. Also, the song options are great, too. I wonder if they might come with a 'Now Playing' box like EU IV has?

How about chances for councillors to actually get somethign for themselves by being good at their job? For an example you get an event where you did extra good now you can either push the advantage towards your liege in hope of getting a favour or use it to your own advantage.

Any chance of us getting some of the old ambitions back? I get that get married wasn't useful but Have a Son/Daughter was.

That's fantastic, but for it to be a threat to the player you really need to alter some values in the faction rebellion system, because ever since you united all rebelling faction members under a single liege faction rebellions are weak as hell. Usually even if your entire realm goes against you some cheap mercenaries + your levies are enough to beat the revolt.
The leader of the rebels needs access to more of his temporary vassals' troops.

Sounds good to me. I'm sure it has been mentioned before, but with Charlemagne you get 125% AE for taking the Saxon provinces, even though it is a scripted CB to take them.

You guys have restored my faith in Conclave, thanks for listening to our feedback and for tirelessly working on improving the DLC. 
I've been too busy since release to play more than a few hours but it's added tremendously to the game. Very excited about the upcoming enhancements!
The changes said here and in the other Conclave threads sound fantastic. Can't wait for the next patch.

This is a welcome fix. But if you’ve gone to all the trouble to have intelligent contextual song selection, why do you all continually make it worthless by making each new DLC’s songs much more likely to play? How hard would it be to intelligently re-balance the multipliers? There’s nothing wrong with boosting the likelihood of new songs, but after a couple weeks, patch it back down.
