You could, sure, you'd need to write text and modifiers for all the other gods of all the other religions. It's not a complicate task, but it is time-consuming.

You're welcome.Thank you!
And yeah I assumed that it'd be a bit of a workload, but that's not a problem. Just wanted to make sure it's not hard coded or anything.
Thanks, again. for your response and for making this game so moddable and all-around awesome.
Yes, it is a shame, if I had had more time I might have done it myself so that other pagans could have it as a selectable Doctrine. The problem was that, unlike Haruspicy and Astrology, adapting Dedicate Temple was not just about changing a trigger or two, it required an extended rework.
No.
It depends on the Bloodline. There will be time in the future to discuss this in detail; as far as this specific example goes, it is a question of redundancy. If you have the Makedon Bloodline and restore the Empire, people will remember that it was the blood of Makedon (which was already well-known and prestigious) that restored Rome, whereas, if you are an upstart, you will found a Bloodline yourself.
It has its own modifiers to try and give the idea of a natural spread over the more compatible cultures.
Depends on the Reformer's culture.
Well...Well now we *need* a reformation option where the reformer can be added to the gods list as some kind of god-king or messianic figure
Yes, if you wish to mod other changes and variations, it is extremely simple.
Yes. Naturally the Greek rulers will not change physically, they will just gain the Roman clothes. The Roman Renaissance requires you to move your capital back in Rome (Italy), so it makes sense that eventually the courtiers of your new administration will start look somewhat Italian as well.I read that Romans will have Italian gfx faces. Does that keep true even if you start the Roman renaissance as Greek? (not that I intend to, I'll be playing in Romagna)
No, the only changes in the requirements to restore the Roman Empire are that now you can be a Christian or Hellenic (rather than be locked to Christians only).
I do not disagree on the principle, but, like you say, this sort of granularity would require a lot of work to be implemented. If you wish to have Greek Gods, just Reform Hellenism before starting the Roman Renaissance, the change in the Pantheon will happen on Reformation and will check only at the time of the reformation what culture the Reformer belongs to. It will not change again later if you become Roman. Conversely, if you want to keep them Latin, wait to Reform until after the Renaissance (or have a non-Greek Emperor doing the Reformation).
As for the culture spread, Roman culture will be very contagious in Italy and towards other Latin cultures. Italian especially is likely to be wiped out if you start the Roman Renaissance. Greek specifically, as it was the case historically, is going to be significantly more resilient to it.
They have new art. The screenshots were taken a long time ago.
It will indeed be fixed.
The Doctrines are simply not available for Hellenism. Things that are inherent for other Pagans are flavor such as Blots, Patron Gods, etc.
No, religious icons have always been static, making them dynamic would require a lot of work.
Visigothic and Vlach are not in the Latin group, so yes.
Yes, that is a typo. I don't know about Swedish, but it definitely is dropped in Italian.
Unfortunately no; while I do not disagree those could be interesting things to have, Holy Fury is not an Hellenism-focused DLC; there were other tasks that needed to be prioritized as well.
As I said in one of the posts before, if the game rule is on, both player and AI have access to it, but the AI is extremely unlikely to be competent enough to pull it off (at least as far as our internal testing has shown).
The event chain is triggered by reforming the Roman Empire, not simply having the title.
In any case, if you do not wish to restore Hellenism as a Roman Emperor, you still have the Delve into Classics decision, which has much more accessible requirements.
Crucifixion was thought about, unfortunately didn't get the occasion to implement it (got lost in the other stuff); a slavery system would need mechanics of its own, so unlikely to be made just for Hellenism. There was a slavery death_reason added for the Children's Crusade though, which I suppose could be used when modding a slavery action for Hellenic rulers, if somebody wishes to do it.
The reforming Roman Emperor does get the Apostate title though, that is in.
No, Zoroastrians were already given a process to restore their ancient religion to Persia.
Yes, if you pick the second option, you will become secretly Hellenic and then establish the religion on your time with a Secret Cult.
Hellenics are a bit of a special case, since most of their religious flavor was then also converted into Doctrines so that the work that went into it would not just be visible in the rare circumstance of a player going for an Hellenic playthrough.
The flavor that other pagans retain regardless of Reformation is usually something that is very specific to those pagans and has not been translated into a Doctrine (such as, for example, the Great Blot for Germanics).
If you are referring to the aggressive/defensive troop modifiers that some pagans get, no, those are not retained during Reformation as they are determined by the religion's Nature.
From a lore perspective, if the religion is defensive and decides to become aggressive, it should not still maintain the characteristics of a defensive religion.
From a gameplay perspective, if you are Slavic and pick Warmongering, you shouldn't be able to stack both the Slavic's defensive bonus on top of the newly acquired offensive bonus given by the new Nature (or if you are Slavic and pick Unyielding, you shouldn't have your defensive bonus doubled to a ludicrous degree).
No unique festivals or models. The image is used on one of the Mongol pillaging events.
No, if you do it progressively by Secret Cult, there are no special events. Naturally, Christian rulers will still treat you like an infidel, the Pope might call Crusades against you, etc.
As already said, the chance is very low, but the AI can do it in theory.
Thank you, I appreciate it.

I am actually genuinely curious. How should we even have done a converter from I:R to CK2? Just ignore about 7 centuries of history? That makes little to no sense. There is a whole game worth of content between the two games.
Whole game of 7 centuries between the two confirmed
Hahahaha, I wish.
Regarding the Pontifex Maximus, no, Temporal Religious Heads do not get religious clothing, though you will get something else that might be discussed in the future.Hope i can still get a reply.
So, if you reform hellenism not as Roman emperor and you pick the Temporal religious head.. You should become the Pontifex. .. Does that mean you'll get to wear those awesome priest clothes, since it's a king tier title?
Furthermore i'm curious about the choice of holy places. I just think the ratio is a bit off. I know that hellenism encompasses both Greek and Roman, but why only 1 Roman site against 4 Greek?
Couldn't we have at least a 2/3 split?
Thanks in advance if you manage to reply, and thanks for answering one of my questions earlier.
As for the holy sites, that was the pre-existing setup and, looking at it, it felt reasonable enough for me: one in Italy (Rome), one in Egypt (Alexandria), and the remaining three in Greece. I suppose it might have been equally valid to move one from Greece to Sicily, but at this point they are likely going to stay as they are.
Religious head names are static, so unfortunately there is always only one available name for each.
