It kind of bugs me that there aren't more mechanics for Judaism and Sikhism. Norse has more mechanics, and they start out with zero provinces. Sikhism has a series of events, but it doesn't have its own mechanics or become as influential in Indian history as it historically was.
So here's my brainstorm for Sikhism: First, Sikhism gets a center of reformation, which converts Hindu and Muslim provinces. It has a shorter range than the Christian ones in Europe or the Muslim ones from Propagate Religion via Trade.
Sikhism considers both Hindusim and Islam to be heretics, despite being a Dharmic religion, and +1 tolerence of heretics. Sikhism also grants defensive bonuses when fighting on Sikh provinces, regardless of ownership. Sikhism has a "militarization of the Faith" meter. Militarization is acquired by events and by having war declared on you. Higher militarization gives a bonus to morale and increases the bonuses given to Khalsa regiments, but hurts Improve Relations with heretics and heathens. Khalsa regiments are mobilized from True Faith provinces by development, similarly to Manchu banners. Khalsa have better discipline, scaling with Militarization of Faith.
Judaism hasn't had enough direct political influence to have state religion mechanics, but it would be interesting to have province and/or state mechanics for areas which historically had large Jewish populations, such as Poland, Russia, and (initially) southern Spain. Perhaps even an estate? Also, maybe some mechanics representing the banking services of Court Jews, similar to the "Borrow Money from Jewish Merchants" in CK2?
Jainism is big in CK2, but is a much smaller religion today. I can't find numbers for how prominent Jainism was as of 1444, but it would be interesting to have a similar set of province and/or state mechanics for Jainism if there was still a substantial Jain population at that time.
Thoughts? Feedback?
