Suggested changes to the splitup of the Duchy of Jülich-Geldern after the death of Rainald for testing and comments.
I assume that the current Plus Vltra setup is used where in 1419 Jülich owns both Jülich and Geldern so that Jülich has to release Geldern first before the event sequence can start.
In AGCEEP the MUN tag was used for Berg. In Plus Vltra Berg exists as BRG tag, so in the Guelders sequence all MUN --> BRG
In FtG the option exists to have triggers for actions and not only for whole events. So we would no longer need two events (75000 and 75021) just to check if Berg exists or not.
For the Guelders event no trigger is needed. It should simply fire after Rainald IV. of Jülich-Geldern dies (25.06.1423)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinald_IV,_Duke_of_Guelders_and_Jülich
As Jülich is it´s own province on the Plus Vltra map the loss of provincemanpower and tax for Geldern is not needed that simlated the loss of Jülich for AGCEEP.
However it would need to be reevaluated if the province of Geldern/Gelre should start with less provincetax and -manpower because of that.
The old province ID 343 is no longer Berg but Kleve. However Egmond in Geldern should not claim Berg, but Jülich as the other part of the old Duchy of Jülich-Geldern.

Event 75021 that was used only to check for the existance of Berg is no longer needed, so we could re-use the event number for the first and only event for Jülich (JUL).
The event needs to fire at least 1 day before the event for Guelders to work.

From the AGCEEP_Specific_Berg file:
When Berg inherits Jülich we no longer need an increase in tax and provincemanpower in Berg, because Jülich exists as a province on the map. As Berg historically did not manage to conquer Guelders it should not gain a national but only a claimcore. Giving Berg a temporary casus belli on Guelders is useless as Berg already has a permanent casus belli because of the core on Guelders.

In turn, Arnold of Egmont claimed the inheritance of Jülich as well. A succession war followed in which the cities and nobles of Guelders supported Arnold. It ended in Arnold retaining Guelders and Zutphen, and Gerard, the son of Adolf, being acknowledged as Duke of Jülich.

Edit: Added the event files of Berg and Geldern with the above changes as a zip to this post for testing and comments.
. Seriously, I'm glad to see EU2 AGCEEP and descendants will never die out. For the Glory!
