I find it silly, that doom stacks generated by events don't dissolve gradually over time. I had a situation, where the Mongol Horde decided to stay where they were with their doom stack, messing up any possible holy war against Tengri for ages.

Some of those doom stacks allow for super-fast winning wars, as a 50k doom suffers almost no casualties, even when storming castles, so they last for a very long time.

Ideas:

- Event Troops (ET) should disappear completely after predefined number of wars, or
- ET should become regular levies after predefined number of wars
- ET should be reduced in size by X % after a war is ended (or multiply that if more than one war has ended, apply when the last war ends)

Well the Mongol stacks ought to stay, that was their entire point. Without doomstacks for Mongols, there's no doom coming with them. If they had regular attrition they'd die within years. I agree that some event troops should settle down (using a realistic measure, after like 20 years they should be old enough to retire, that should be the time they should be gone)

I agree with Ached but I would extend it to 30-40 years for good measure. They should degrade by X% a year until they're gone by 30-40 years in.
