Faction Thread: the Schmalkaldic League (emerging)

[justme]

discuss here the Schmalkaldic League of Protestant German states... it will be an emerging faction, linked with the Reformation movement starting in 1517

what is the limit for the number of religions in MTW 2? cos you could get rid of Paganism, if their aren't any free spaces. The protestant church could be made into a guild, offering the preacher and maybe happiness/economical benefits (due to lack of Pope)

that' good idea but then the player might have problems with converting other provionces...

[justme]

my intention was to treat conversion (initial at least) by script
e.g. after Luther appears, the regions of Magdeburg, Luebeck and Hamburg become protestant (among others)... after that it'll be a battle of priests

as for the limit of religions, I'm not sure if anything has changed with the installation of the Kingdoms expansion... I'll have to research and report

I don't know if it is possible, but can't you make the HRE convert like Lithuania using the same script. I'm not a great modder, but it's just a suggestion.

By the way I'm looking forward to 3.0 is going to be released.

hi, just watching this mod progress. I really want a mod based on gunpowder but would be nice if someone made new skins to get the English red coats etc.
But on-topic, on RTW:BI Britannia pops out on a certain year and attacks London. Would it not be easy to script this for the Schmalkaldic League to pop out like them and attack whatever city is the first to be, besieged?
I'm no moder like but just sharing idea, keep up the good work

[Nevada]

well, they can let them spawn as a revolutionary army with protestant fanatics..
