KINGDOM of JERUSALEM

[Stivanderen]

A thought struck me today while reading an alternate timeline with a surviving crusader kingdom. A way to give Jerusalem some spice would be having a small army with units from a catholic faction spawning in the jerusalem region, with like one feudal/noble unit and one or two faction specific non noble unit. this could happen every 20-30 turns. If you want to make it advanced the factions the units are from might depend on the factions relation to the pope, like it being very high or very low, similarly the army could only spawn if your reputation is high enough.

First I just want to say, the mod is very impressive and exactly what I was looking for in a Stainless Steel Submod/modernisation.

I do wonder, is there documentation regarding the faction rosters or unimplemented features, particularly regarding the Kingdom of Jerusalem? One thing I am curious about in particular is their lack of access to the Serjeant Spearmen type of units and I am curious if it is intended or part of the unimplemented features for this faction.

There's no documentation of this type. I haven't checked, but this type of unit may be available at higher levels of barrarcks or military orders' buildings

Hello,

Can I ask why the most important castle of the crusader states was not added in the mod?
I am of course talking about Kerak.

It's vital important castle for the survival of the kingdom of Jerusalem against the Fatimids.

Kerak is planned to be added as one of the unique buildings for the Military Orders' builiding - the plan is here.

Marienburg (Prussia)
Calatrava (Toledo)
Crac de Chevalliers (Tripoli)
Temple of Salomon (Jerusalem)

EDIT: Mind that Crac had various naming versions, including Krak/Kerak, and there's also another castle named after that casle, that is "Kerak of Moab", situated to south-east of the Dead Sea.

Thank you Jurand !
This is more than I could have wished for.

Hopefully it will be implemented in the next version of SSHIP

Is there somewhere I can find info on the crown of jerusalem? My king has the trait fit for crown, I seem to have all the provinces required, 20k money, and the holy sepulchere yet he is not getting crowned. I'm wondering if there is a list of required provinces that I can check or if I'm doing anything wrong.

Thank you for the list! I didn't notice that I needed Lefkosia and I was able to get the crown after I took the castle without a problem.

Hi Jurand,
I had another question about the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

At the start of the campaign I get a message saying something about " Reforms of Jerusalem is not yet done" what is meant by this and what can we expect in the future?

Thanks

It means "I have the whole lot of ideas but I have no clue when I'd have time to implement it"
It depends on the RL events - once I have more time, I'd work on the mod, also on the KoJ reforms. I'd count the time horizon of the changes to come in years, actually.
So play the faction now, don't wait.
