Varangian Sub-Mod

[maltsefalcon204]

Hi all,

Currently working away on a little mod that will flip Rurik and his vassals to varangian and as the time period goes on you flip to russian,etc,etc

Currently having one drama and that's with my invasion script.

I'm using the Paradox script used for the Turks, but for some really annoying reason when it activates the following happens.

-The Kievan Rus becomes the vassal of the pope.
-The player receives both his SE troops and money.

Currently just using the E_russia as place holder till I get it to work then I will create a custom title for the schmuck.
The script is as follows:

id = var.4a

Any help would be great before I have to stab someone...

Hi,

What is the purpose of the invasion script. I remember you saying on the Norman thread that you wanted to allow Rurik's son to conquer Kiev - is this script supposed to do that or is it for the expansion of Kiev after it is taken?

If you wanted a way to trigger the invasion then I could send you my Norman invasion script which works by granting a claim on a county in Normandy to a random character and then triggering the claimant adventurer event. It seems to work pretty well and would allow you to tie the invasion to an existing character rather than creating a random one, which might be better if you want to model histrory as you could make it only fire for one particular character (or any character meeting certain stats from the Rurikid dynasty). Let me know if you're interested.

Hey antidaulist

I would be more thr happy for that script, maybr we can tie our little mods, together too add more flavour to the northmen lol

Yeah sounds good, I'm planning to add some more norse melting pot cultures including one for Iberian, Arabic and Byzantine cultures (although since you went with Varangian for a norse east slavic melting pot might have to find a new name for the last one). I tried to PM you the Normandy code so you can have a look at it but it didn't seem to work. If you know how to send attachments in PMs could you let me know. Else I might have to send each event as a seperate message.
