Well if you have any suggestions, feel free to post them. I can't promise that I'll like and use them, though. :p

I don't mind fantasy, as long as they aren't exaggerated...
 
The scenario file for U35 in the 1339 scenario causes problems when I try to load up the game.

Line 17 (revolt risk = { date...... } seems to be causing problems - I just commented out that line and the problem disappears, although I'm sure you intended for them to have a +15 RR.

Yeah I intended for them to have that revolt risk, as the nation isn't really supposed to survive.

It doesn't cause me any problems, though. Are you sure you have the latest beta installed?
 
There is a "bug" in the 1861 scenario: Napoléon III should be Emperor of the French, not Henri V ;)

Regarding my suggestions:

here's my proposal for events:

Pre-1830: At the beginning of July: an event asking if player wants to act like Charles X did: disolving the Chambers because he lost the elections, or to accept.
If he refuses: 1830 should trigger
if not let's go on!


choices if 1830 triggers-Charles X fall (historical)-> Louis Philippe
-crush the insurgents! (heavy losses in stab, RR etc...)
- abdication to grandson accepted: play on sliders
- Republic!!! (why not adding some badboy
in ordrer to simulate the great powers fear?)


regarding 1848, let's remind that the movement was limited to Paris and took every one by surprise.
pre-1848 event: Interdiction of the banquets? (Banquets asking for Universal suffrage were organised. Louis-Philippe prohibited them. They took place anyway, and in February took place the revolution because of a little incident with the royal troops. Louis-Philippe was old and fed up with it and he even didn't try to resist! His abdication to his Son was also ignorated.)
If player chooses to interdict them, let's go for the Revolution
If he doesn't, no revolution but why not (in order to let the banquets made their effects) an event on June about streets demonstration on Universal Suffrage? If player Accepts (option B), forget Revolution. If not, let's go for it!

-1848 Revolution: -Louis Philippe fall
-Accept Universal Suffrage and abdicate to Louis-Philippe II
- Crush the insurgents!


Here are the Bourbons Monarchs if Charles X stays in place:
Henri V (1836-1883)
Jean III (1883-1887)
Charles IX (1887-1909)
Jacques I (1909-1931)

Sadly, at the moment, I haven't found more precise dates of death etc...

Orléans Kings: Louis-Philippe II (8/16/1850 - 9/8/1894)
Philippe VII (9/8/1894 - 3/28/1926)


I've other suggestions, especially regarding the beginning of the third republic...
An other day!

bug: trying to load a game with Venice in 1337

What about an option for an ahistorical England that has conquered France to move the capital to Paris?
# London or Paris?
event = {
id = # Hive will choose an id no.
random = no
country = ENG
name = "London or Paris?"
desc = "With the complete destruction of all French resistance on the continent, no French pretender exists to challenge English might in France. Should our Empire be ruled from London or Paris?"
style = 3

trigger = {
NOT = {
event = 3004 # End of the Hundred Years war
exists = FRA
}
owned = { province = 385 data = ENG }
control = { province = 385 data = ENG }
}

date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1453 }
offset = 300
deathdate = { day = 1 month = january year = 1520 }

action_a ={#Stay in London#
name = "Stay in London"
command = { type = stability value = 1 }
command = { type = domestic which = LAND value = -2 } # simulates greater focus on naval expansion
}
action_b ={#Move to Paris#
name = "Move to Paris!"
command = { type = treasury value = -100 } # cost of moving things over the Channel
command = { type = domestic which = LAND value = 2 } # simulates greater focus on Continental Europe
command = { type = stability value = -2 }
command = { type = capital which = 385 }
}
}

Not if they still have French culture - this trans-Channel enterprise wouldn't really be "English", it would be "English and French". That's why the Mongol Empire scenario has England's capital in Maine at some point, since the Plantaganet Kings were more worried about France than Britain.....

Basically, from a gameplay point of view it would help the player who wants to make the continent his focal point - no land connection to capital penalty is removed if the English capital is on the Continent.

Yes... well I guess it wouldn't hurt to have such an event. But instead of -100 d, I think some RR would be better...

But one problem that will occur: what about religion, then? If their capital is in France, AI will stay catholic... I fear that the religious setup will be a huge mess.

Also, an England that controls all of France could be given some French events, liek French Wars of Religion and stuff... but what would they have done with religion if they had owned France? Hard to say...
 
Good point about religion - you could just lift the fantasy "French England" events straight out of the AGCEEP - they've got an entire set of events entertaining that possibility.

When the reformation kicks in, should England decide to go Protestant, French provinces should get RR - whether France remaining catholic has to do more with the characteristics of French Kings or French culture, I really don't know, but I would suspect that had a French King decided that Protestantism were the way to go, that it could have been done over the course of a few centuries (modelled by missionaries in the game I suppose).

If England stays Catholic, I'd imagine most of England to remain happy with that - a lot of Englishmen were firmly opposed to Henry VIII's decision anyway (Thomas More for one) and the anti Catholic craze only really kicked in because of Bloody Mary and the fact that Protestantism became "state religion" - if that never happened in the first place, a Catholic England shouldn't be too surprising?
 
You're right Wilhelm, I've not the betas...
How is their stability? No bugs? Shall I download them without concern?

And my suggestions? :D
 
I'm not familiar with those AGCEEP events you mention, can you describe them briefly?

Whether or not England would go protestant, I think they should experience the same sort of events that France gets in their wars of religion. Also, it would make more sense for England to go reformed if they have France...

Well if you want to experience my mod from it's best side, then yes... ;)

There are no bugs in them per se.

Well it would be a great deal of work to code all that... so it's not my first priority. Fantasy events never really are, the same goes for the English ones mentioned.

But if I get some help... ;)

But isnt the English capital on the continent anyways with the new Calais straight? If you own all French provinces there should be no penalty?
