My Byzantine-Trebizond-Genovese Events...Again

[bombshellboi]

Ok heres a zip file including the events, text.csv, monarchs, and leader files.

Please backup all the files you will replace - obviously - cos i dont want to be blamed for your game crashing cos of the new stuff.

EDIT2: See first post for Zip...

EDIT: I have to say that I am quite proud of my "Dynastical struggle" events between the Palaelogus and Commenus families because the AGC and EEP discussed doing something like it and never got around to scripting events for it or wasnt able to script events for it and im pleased that I was able to script a reasonably good set of events for the Commeni unseating the Palaelogi after the death of Constantine XI Dragases and then the Palaelogi returning to topple the dictator Commenus after a while.

But you need to watch in the events that you dont destroy the Turks before you get aid from Genoa because if you do then you will lose your cores on Kaffa and Kerch and never get them back, as the death of the Turks triggers a revival of the Empire event where Byzantium reclaims much of its old territory and it assumes that Genoa has already aided you so you have ceeded claims on Kaffa and Kerch so it gives you those claims back with the Revival of the Empire event. If you manage to wipe out the Turks before the reign of Konstantinos XI Dragases then ur gonna loose cores on Kaffa and Kerch - but on the bright side Genoa will LOVE you.

Also i believe in the events I added an additional e in (Paelaelogus instead of) Palaelogus so you guys can delete that or leave it as you wish.

You can add new text strings at the end, or in the middle of the text.csv file - as long as one remembers to put it before the #EOF string.

To get these to work in your game:
1. Open text.csv in a text editor
2. Paste the texts posted over into the file (before #EOF)
3. Either create a new file with the events and add it to events.txt or add them to an existing event file.
4. Since the events deal with monarchs and leaders you'll also need his monarch/leader files.

ahhh ok
and the numbers behind the lines also doesnt matter if they are bigger then the biggest in the text.csv ???

IIRC they doesn't matter at all as long as the column isn't empty...

Oh i forgot to add that you will need to change the Byzantine-Trebizond starting Cores in their respective .inc files in the "eu2/scenarios/1419/" folder to as follows.

Byzantium = 357, 320, 321, 356, 358, 359, 360, 361, 464, 465, 475, 472, 479, 480, 481, 484, 820

Trebizond = 475, 464, 465, 474, 472, 473, 476, 1609, 483, 1611, 482, 477

Also I myself changed the cores of Georgia, Ak Koyunlu, and Karaman but this isnt necessary for the events...

Karaman = 1611, 1610, 1609, 475, 474, 476, 477, 478, 479, 481, 482, 483, 484, 485

Georgia = 470, 469, 471, 464, 465, 472, 473, 475, 474, 486, 487

Ak Koyunlu = 473, 472, 471, 474, 475, 476, 483, 482, 485, 486, 487

@ angelscotboi

how the ai work with this event ?

 

[bombshellboi]

Well the majority of the time by the time it comes for these events the Ottoman Empire has wiped out the Byzantine and Trebizond Empires so the events are put to sleep.

So the events are for the Player playing Byzantium...
Because I assume that if you brilliant generals take command of the "Grand" East Roman Empire and defeat the Turks on the field of battle then all the successor states that were historically destroyed/absorbed by the Ottoman Empire would survive for much longer and therefore merit some events.

EDIT:
I have a question...should I script a "Reclaim the Holy Land for the True Christian Faith!" Event?
I would think that a resurgent Byzantium would most definately seek to attack the Mamelukes and reclaim the Holy Land at the very least - and at most seek to invade and reconquer the entire mid east...
After all the Mid East was populated by Heathens so what was the harm in wiping them out?

I found a slight mistake in my Monarchs files for Byz and Tre...

Ioannes VI Kommenos becomes Emperor of Byz on 1457 BUT i forgot to set it to the exact date of the death of Konstantinos Dragases so briefly Demetrios becomes emperor - if you guys change the Byz monarch of Ioannes Kommenos his start date to the day and month Konstantinos dies then that should fix that mistake...

Also Dauid Kommenos assumes the throne in Trebizond 2 years too early - I forgot to change his reign in TRE to match his reign in BYZ...he comes to the Trebizond throne in 1458 rather than 1460...if you just change the death date of Ioannes Kommenos in the TRE monarch file to 1460 and the start date of Dauid Kommenos to match that should fix that...

EDIT: Either you can do as above or download this and replace the files...
