Claims as non-Christian or non-Feudal states

[Tommy4ever]

I've noticed than when playing either a heaven, Republic or Knightly Order (I assume this also applies for Bishoprics) that you can't claim the lands of those of your religion as is possible with Christian Feudal nations.

I assume the only way to get claims (outside random events) would be to edit them in.

How would I go about doing this?

You must find the tag you want, it will display something like this:

title = {
    tag = XXXX
    tier = county/duchy/kingdom
    holder = { character = { type = xx id = xxxxxx } startdate = { year = xxxx month = xxxxxx day = xx } }	
}

You have to change it to something like this:

title = {
    tag = XXXX
    tier = county/duchy/kingdom
    holder = { character = { type = xx id = xxxxxx } startdate = { year = xxxx month = xxxxxx day = xx } }	
    [B]claim = { id = { type = xxxx id = xxxxxx } character = { type = xx id = xxxxxx } }[/B]
}

For the id, you can copy from another claim and change the number to have an unused one. Then you have to paste your character's type and id.
