Greetings all. I would like to introduce you my minimod based on adding new higher religious ranks to the eastern-orthodox church. Here is the list of changes in this mod:
1: Added rank "Patriarch". Every single orthodox faction can have it (only one agent per faction) by promoting a random metropolitan(bishop) but there are some conditions:
-the byzantines must control atleast one of the 2 following cities: Tzarigrad(Constantinople),Nicaea;
-the bulgarians must control Turnovo;
-the russians must control Moscow (in this mod in all the campaigns Moscow is filled with rebel units.The purpouse of this is that the russians can have their first patriarch later on as it is in history.
Once you control the specified settlement one of your metropolitans will be chosen and will receive a special ancillary. On the the end of the turn he will be promoted to patriarch.
2: Added rank "Ecumenical patriarch". Again every orthodox faction can have such an agent but the difference is that there can be only one worldwide. In order to obtain this agent you must control Tzarigrad(Constantinople) and wait for the other one to die. When he dies a new ecumenical patriarch will be placed right next to the city and a special video will apear.
3: Added new portraits for the orthodox agents (only Bizantium for some strange reason is still using the catholic ones).
4: A reform of the orthodox churches giving them more bonuses like population growth and etc.
5: Metropolitans(Bishops) for both orthodox and catholic factions can NOT be recruited in a cathedral. They can be generated by promotion of default priests that have atleast 4 Piety points.
Here's a screenshot of the ecumenical and the byzantine patriarchs:

P.S.The custom model of the ecumenical patriarch and the special video were obtained from the mod BellumCrucis 6.3
