The Fallen Eagle BetterBlobs Submod

This mod is the second mod in my 'BetterBlobs' series (Imperator Rome: "TE : Crisis of the Third Century BetterBlobs Submod", CKIII: "The Fallen Eagle BetterBlobs Submod", EU4: "BetterBlobs: Natives & Institution Spread"), which is meant to enhance a megacampaign playthrough to increase historicity and realism dynamically, in contrast to normal megacampaigns which 'diverge' in their plausibility very quickly. Instead of 'railroading', this is done through clever dynamic re-balancing.

Requires 'The Fallen Eagle' mod. You can find it here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2243307127


There is also a Chinese Translation mod by: @牛奶大魔王

Tribes cannot directly 'create' or 'usurp' kingdom or empire titles, and must acquire them by other means. This is different for nomads, or any nation that has 70% of classical technologies researched.

It is much more expensive to convert tribal holdings if they are in a taiga or mountain holding without the 'Urbanization' innovation. Deserts, Jungles, and Desert mountains are always much more expensive.

Additionally, more checks are added for tribal nations, as well as some mild conversions on day 1 of a megacampaign converted save-

Also, tribes cannot directly form confederations into united states, they must become feudal (or nomadic) first.

Several tweaks to nomads, including preventing an AI Great Khan from instantly settling the entire steppe, instead the AI goes with the enhanced horde option.

For every powerful vassal or elector that is disloyal or in a faction (without a strong hook) the cost to pass a law is generally increased by 100% (after all other modifiers, so it is very important to get loyal powerful vassals and any electors before passing reform)
(This on average keeps the HRE decentralized, rather than them always getting to absolute crown authority by EU4 time)



Changlong:
1.1:

Stopped unreformed faiths from converting too easily through the yearly AI conversion pulse event, now conversion is dynamically based on a religion's tenets. (Missionaries heavily accepted gives a large boost, while 'Cultural only' pillar makes the dynamic conversion almost never happen, similarly the pluralism doctrine (of the unreformed character's faith) increases the chances an unreformed ai character being converted, while the inverse doctrine significantly lowers the chances, ect.)
ect.

RECOMMENDATION FOR MEGACAMPAIGNS:

I recommend when converting to EU4, in the shatter.txt file for releasing powerful vassals, setting the sensitivity to a very high number, at least 300 if not 1,000. The balancing of this Fallen Eagle BetterBlobs Submod is such that there will likely be a mix of bur/imperial and feudal/clan (and tribal) realms in 1444. This will make it so 'bureaucratic' realms akin to (Spain, English Crown, ect.) will be imported with 'directly owning' their entire country, while nations such as France, HRE, Timmurids, will be expanded with many vassals as they start the game in EU4.
