Navarra turning Sunni. Stop this next release please

[Lider_Picaro]

So Navarra in 867 starts with absolute cognatic inheritance law. This makes the throne fall into the hands of a muslim ruler's wife. While I think Navarra did allow women to rule and thus it is historically accurate, the results are not. Just for game balance Navarra should have agnataic-cognatic. If Valencia and Galicia were introduced in the last release just for balance, as quoted from the devs, I think this also requires to forget historical accuarcy for a moment.

Alternatively there could be a game rule preventing title inheritance out of the religious group or something like that

Thanks for the report, in the dev version of SWMH we've altered the birth dates of Fortun's children so that his sons have a better chance at succession than his daughter does.

So are there no good records on his children and their ages were fictional or did you decide changing them was the lesser ahistorical evil?

Anyway, could you tell me what the changes are so I fix it on my own before waiting for release? (Just the new ages, I know how to mod them)

Thanks

Here's the relevant changelog:

The dates surrounding the close family of Fortún Íñiga, son of the King of Navarra, have been slightly shifted around so that Eneko, not Oneka, is his eldest child, making it significantly more likely for the kingdom to stay Catholic and Basque on its own.
Historians are not even sure that the particular Oneka who ended up being the grandmother of Umayyad caliph Abd-ar-Rahman III was the actual daughter of Fortún, let alone the exact dates about when Fortún's children were born and in what order. These newly adjusted dates and birth orders are therefore completely historically plausible, though definitely in no way should they be seen as accurate (incidentally, none of Fortún's children actually became rulers of Navarra, as he was ousted by Antso I Ximena, aka Sancho I, who then went on to found the Jimenez dynasty).

Anyway, could you tell me what the changes are so I fix it on my own before waiting for release? (Just the new ages, I know how to mod them)

Just make sure that Oneka (character ID 70294) is not the eldest child of Fortun (70293).
