title:
A tempting offer...

description:
It seems that several "informants" have come to our court from [bordering country] to make a deal with us. They claim that they have set up a vast network of spies and informants that could benefit our country greatly.

trigger:
-have spymaster
-at least 200 ducats
-at least 3 spies
-neighboring country relations lower than 0

options:
1) Support the informants: lose 200 ducats, fog of war lifted in provinces bordering our country for 6months (the provinces of the country named in event)

2) This is an out rage! I will never resort to such means!: +1 stability, +2 spies, gain 100 ducats

 

[TheCheeseMaster]

I dont think it would increase stability, the people of your country would never know about this. I think it should increase prestige instead.

Title:
Honor at stake
Description:

Unfortunately DAIMYO_NAME lost his temper and tried to kill the master of protocol. The imperial court punished this offence with an order to commit seppuku...

You mean like Delfts blue?

 

[Evie HJ]

Probably should also not fire in naval supplies provinces, or provinces with manufactories. (to avoid creating a type mismatch)

Isn't that just pottery?

Probably should also not fire in naval supplies provinces, or provinces with manufactories. (to avoid creating a type mismatch)

I think you're right, I will edit that.

Alchemy isnt working
Triggers: Must be past 1600
Description Alchemy is the attempt to create gold from nothing, however, our attempts haven't been working very well and have resulted in a number of alchemists exploding. Perhaps, this isnt the best way to make money

Option 1 "Oh. We'll try something different then" - -1 stability -5 prestige [can't get this event again]

Option 2 "But, we'll be rich when we finally get it right!" - -200 ducats [can get follow up event (below)]



Alchemy doesn't work anyway!
TriggersMust have chosen option 2 for the above event, must be past 1700
Description Gold is discovered to be an element! A completely different thing to everything else, it is therefore, impossible to smelt it and would make our country seem backward and ignorant in front of our neighbors. But, it would go against our ancestors to just back out of it like that.

Option 1"I refuse to believe this mumbo-jumbo" +20 legitimacy, gain modifier backward technology (-2 tech investment)

Option 2"We shall prove to our rivals that they are the ones who are backward!" -10 legitimacy, +10 prestige, gain modifier increase technology (+2 tech investment)

I posted a quite similar event in this thread - look out for "alchemist"
It might refer to Meissen porcelaine, or Bohemia glass.
I make it fire only on grain or fish, though.

This event should be the effect of a national decision.

Title: Eastern Roman Empire restored!

Description: Megas Basileus, we have claimed the lands of our forefathers and now our Roman being is aknowledged by the heretic Latins! You will forever be remembered as the new Constantine - as a saint of the State and Church - let us celebrate, my Emperor.

Triggers:

- tag is BYZ
- owns all of the former Empire (I'm thinking of Theodosius II here)
- is Christian
- is monarchy
- ruler has ADM of 6 or more
- ruler has MIL of 6 or more
- The Despotate of Epirus and the Empire of Trebizond are destroyed
- is not bankrupt.
- culture is Greek or Italian.

Text on button: Roma Victor. Effects:

- Relations with the Holy Roman Emperor is changed by -200
- Relations with the Papacy is changed by -100
- Relations with HRE countries are changed by -50
- Relations with neighboring not allied countries is changed by -50
- Gain core in all required territories and in Rome
- Gain 50 prestige
- Gain 20 infamy
- Country name is changed to Eastern Roman Empire (tag ERE)
- As many provinces as possible are given their Roman/Greek names (similar to the Restore Thematic System decision)
- Descentralization and Defensive gain 1

Then if the Paleologi usurpers are getting an event then I'll have to think one up for the true Autocrats of the Entire East, the Komnenoi of Trebizond. Hail the Last Greek Empire.
