The political map of Post Finem in 1444, with Carthage a shell of its former glory.Without the rise of the Romans, there is a very large cascading effect on history. Without Rome, Christianity fails to take off and encompass much of the Western world. The Hellenic pantheon remains dominant in the east, while the Punic pantheon becomes the de facto faith in the west, even pushing into the Italian peninsula via trade relations and political pressures. The Carthaginian Empire continues to grow, incorporating all of Mauretania, Iberia, and southern Gaul into the fold. This is fairly evident when you look at the religious map of the mod.
The religious mapmode in 1444, with a diverse array of faiths throughout the entire scope region. Keep an eye on the Romana in northern Italia, as well as the Evangelos and Jewish provinces in northern Arabia.For the sake of brevity, we will explain that the so-called “barbarians” of Gaul, Germania, Slavia, and Scandinavia were mostly unaffected by the Punic and Hellenic worlds, as external forces were often viewed as “untouchable” and thus there was ever interest in pursuing conquest in the lands to their north. That allowed these faiths, although evolving internally over the centuries, to remain relevant in their homelands.
Though the Gaelic peoples of Gaul and the Celtic Isles have embraced the feudal government system, the vast woods and highlands of northern Europe remain primarily in a tribal structure, with the Feudalism institution yet to be present.And while on the topic of government structure, the Zoroastrian Empire of Persia must be brought up, having recently (within the last 300 years) pushed the Selecuid Greeks from the Persian heartland and established a regional governance system known as the Satrapies.
The Satrapy system demands specific conquests and freedoms granted to the special subjects in exchange for more efficient governance of the borderlands of the Persian Empire. This lends itself to a VERY unique gameplay experience for anyone looking to utilize a vassal swarm game.There are currently over 60 unique mission trees in the mod, and I can’t show off all of them, but I will happily show off a few of my personal favorites that I feel showcase the talent of the contributors and developers that work(ed) on the mod since it started last August.
Carthage, the shadow of the once great Carthaginian Empire, exists in its heartland, governing a few loosely incorporated vassal nations in the region. The Qahal, the parliamentary system utilized by Carthage, rules the nation and dictates a lot of the internal politics of Carthage.
Their mission tree will push them to reconquer their lost territory and beyond, all the while industrializing their nation and reclaiming the glory of their once great name.
Starting in a precarious circumstance, Macedonia must be careful not to get involved in costly wars early as their low Organization will lead to low military quality. If Organization were to hit 0, the War Cabinet may just coup the Basileus!
The Macedonian mission tree, as you would expect, pushes them to reconquer the lost lands of the once-great empire of Alexander, complete with flavorful events, and the opportunity to rule southern Italy (Magna Graecia) and Aegyptos as personal unions.
The new interface for the Italian Federation coming to Post Finem in the 1.2 update, complete with 24 possible reforms and the “Religious Tension” mechanic that acts as an engine to drive the Religious Leagues toward their inevitable conclusions. More on REDACTED at a later date. Of course, centralization will allow the Adirim to unite the Federation under the Roman banner, reclaiming that long-dead name.
Italia is poised to challenge the Punics, especially following their persecution at the hands of the Scarlet Delegation, instituted by the Adirim in the year prior to game start.
The Seleucid mission tree pushes for massive conquests, uniting the Hellenic world, all the while buffing their already powerful military, becoming the undisputed militaristic hegemon of the world. The branching missions open up upon the initialization of the Paradosi reformation of the Hellenic pantheon, allowing Seleucia to reform and lead the reformation, or reject it and defend the Archon’s Diktat!
The Evangelos faith is focused around spreading the faith, either by diplomacy or by the sword, and will lead to powerful buffs along the way, ultimately pushing for the unification of the Evangelos world into a united tag, the Theodokos.
The Jain faith focuses on enlightenment, and each of the 3 colored hands can be clicked to reveal various “paths” that enlightenment can be spent on, granting various bonuses that stack nicely.
The top portion of this tree is available in 1444 to Heliopolis, the leader of the Sacred Empire of Christ, with the bottom portion being unlocked upon unification of the Theodokos via the Christian Zeal mechanic shown previously.
The Munifara mission tree, with the shared portion being built upon by the yellow portion (East African vs Semetic tech groups vs coastal Somalian nations) and the red portion upon uniting the Horn and forming Munifara.
The Indo-Greek nation of Simylla, a one province minor in western India, has the ability for grow far beyond their 1444 borders and unite India as Yavana, unlocking this BEEFY mission tree to aid them in their conquests.
And the last mission tree to show for 1.2 will be Zulfaar, the theocratic center of the Islamic world, based in Yemen. The holy city of Taiz, the spiritual center of Islam, where the prophet Mohammed (PBUH) established the faith.
Here, you can determine things such as which Mission Trees AI will pick, whether you want to remove certain nations for the sake of performance, or whether you want to increase the chance of a Dutch nation spawning, or perhaps the chance for a Iberian Union of Castile and Portugal to occur!
And finally, the best part - you get Steam Achievement popups! And while they may not be actual Steam achievements, just faux popups, they still do feel pretty dang good to look at!
Of course, even that isn’t nearly everything we’re up to regarding UI, but a lot of the things we’ve started work on (such as further custom macrobuilder tabs, colonization changes, siege changes, and fully new gameplay related UIs) are so early in progress that there isn’t much to show off yet (1.37 is new after all), so keep in touch with everything new through our teasers! But for now, just have this! Can you guess what it is for? ;)
First things first, you will notice that Sardinia and Sicily are now on the map! Whilst both were de-jure part of Aragon at the time, however, considering their position between the kingdoms of Naples and Aragon, plus the fact that we like seeing more nations on the map, they are now junior partners of Aragon.
In order to represent a few other vassals and allies of Aragon, there are now new events for the subjugation of Stephan of Herzegovina, as well as Skanderbeg joining your court should Albania be wiped out from the map. This will make Aragon’s starting position quite opportunistic but also hard to maintain.
Lastly, Aragon starts with a new disaster, the War of the Remences, which some of you may know from the vanilla tree, however we’ll get on that later 👀
Whilst this tree is not as big as Castile, it will get expanded later when you form Spain, allowing you to gain the Castilian colonial missions. Now, besides that? What differentiates Aragon from Castile? Considering their position in the Mediterranean, their several conflicts with the Italian merchants, as well as their conflicts with both the Mamluks and the Ottomans, they would be even more mercantile and naval focused than their Castilian counterparts, with most of their missions revolving around securing trade in the Mediterranean. Some territories as well were a part of Aragon, like Athens, Corsica, and even parts of Provence, so we’ve tried to be as accurate to these ambitions as possible. In addition, like other nations wishing to control Egypt and potentially the trade in Asia, Aragon can also construct an early Suez Canal, although it will be costly to do so.
Whilst some are focused on the Mediterranean, there are also missions for the situation in Iberia, as well as some interaction with your vassals, such as Navarra and Castile, who you will be able to get through existing vanilla content, although Iberian Wedding has been reworked in 1.13 to require the Castilian Civil War.
Before we get onto the branching missions though, let’s speak about Aragonese flavour. Considering the Catalan dominance not only in Eastern Iberia, but also the entire Mediterranean, we’ve decided to focus more on that part of their content. There were a few underutilised effects as well as designs we wanted to try out, and Aragon fit in perfectly for them, such as further customization for your flagship, with modifications that offer drawbacks in exchange for a more specialised fleet, allowing you to pick your loan sizes, as well as encouraging the player to maintain trade power in both Genoa and Venice nodes. Some parts of the tree focuses on Alfonso V’s being a patron of the arts, which we may or may not expand later.
Now, let’s look at the spiciest part of the tree.I said before that the War of the Remences is a new disaster for Aragon. The reason being is because we wanted to look more in-depth to the opportunities this conflict caused, as well as showcase the difference between the Catalan nobility and the peasantry
Now, when the Disaster fires, if you want to prevent the worst outcome, you must get rid of the privilege. The reason being is that Catalonia will slowly start gathering supporters to create their own independent nation, autonomous from the laws of Aragon enforced to them. What’s worse is, Good King Renes of Provence still remembers his defeats in Italy and would most likely try to convince the Catalan people to declare him their king. The French as well would be able to intervene on the side of Catalonia, although Aragon can grant them the fort of Rousellon for support.
When you’re finally done with the disaster you will unlock the branching missions. Depending on how you complete or how you avoid the disaster, the missions will branch to either dealing with the numerous kingdoms in Iberia, or creating a peasant republic that will liberate every peasant in Iberia!
Here’s the mission tree that gets unlocked:
Now, the mission tree for Angevins is a heavy Work in Progress, so I’ll focus on the general gist of it!
Here’s the colors of England & France two-thirds into the integration process.
To briefly tackle the question of the mission tree, the mission tree is split into 3 subtrees, the latter two being of rather familiar scheme, representing the outward and inward ambitions of the two states, while the first one is dedicated entirely towards the unification of the two states.
And to make it easier to manage your realm across islands and continents alike, we’ve made it possible to create a brand new artificial strait crossing - The Channel Tunnel! With it first being proposed in 1802 and attempted in 1880, only failing due to political reasons and not practical ones, we’ve determined it to be no less fitting for the era than the Suez Canal!
Since it is a tunnel, it obviously cannot be blockaded, but for that, we came up with a rather elegant solution to allow you to still keep the island safe from crossings, if the need arises:
This also means that the artificial strait has 3 possible states: 
Additionally, The Channel Tunnel has a counterpart monument in Calais, which always matches the development of the main unit in Kent - so it’s just for show and for applying the modifiers.

Romagnoli is one of the most important cultures in what is modern Italy today, while in the past the Duchy of Ferrara was involved in the infighting with their neighboring states in the region. One of our main inspirations was the Gala armor of the Italian General Alessandro Farnese, Duke of the Parma and Piacenza, which is very clear in the design of the early age armor set, and the heavy armor is also visible on the second unit, before going into a more modern and light uniform for the later ages, with more focus on agility and utility.
The Umbrian countries (Urbino, Spoleto, and Perugia) fell under the control of the Papal States in the Middle Ages. They used a great variety of armor pieces, but in general, they wore padded clothing, chainmail, breastplates, and helmets. We see that especially between the 15th and 17th centuries, one of our inspirations for them was the Infantry of House Frederico da Montefeltro. For the later ages, the uniforms were also more based on mobility and utility, with the use of belts and pouches for ammunition and occasionally swords or bayonets as well.
The Rhenish units came from one of the most important regions in Germany during the period, and had great recognition for their military force and discipline, playing an important role in European military history during the 16th and 17th centuries. For the units in the earlier ages, we got inspiration from the typical Rhenish Palatinate Landsknecht outfit, with its intricate designs and very unique use of colors and style. For the later ages, the main inspiration was the Regiment Von Nassau and also the 2nd battalion of the 6th Infantry of the Confederation of the Rhine.
The Westphalian units (like Munster, Dortmund, or Oldenburg) had a very significant military history in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. For our early-age units, our main inspiration was the Maximilian armor, a typical 16th-century German plate armor made in steel and decorated in a very specific way that helped to deflect blades during melee combat.
Most of Dalmatia, in the eastern coast of the Adriatic sea, was part of the Venetian Republic for most of the period, their inhabitants having served in the armies, while the most relevant independent state in 1444 was the Republic of Ragusa. The Dalmatians' impact and expertise in maritime warfare are clearly apparent in the design of the units, crafted to maintain the essence of a military force seamlessly integrated with a naval fleet.
As Croatia was part of the Habsburg Monarchy during most of the period, they were quite important for the military forces of the Habsburg and were involved in many conflicts and campaigns across Europe, including the Thirty Years War. One notable feature of the units is the influence of this Croatian military style, showcased in one of the outfit designs featuring their distinctive cravat. This design also served as inspiration for the formation of the Cravat Regiment in contemporary Croatia. Additionally, countries with Slovenian culture will use these Croation unit models as well.
Moldavia starts in EUIV as an independent principality, but soon after fell under the control of Lithuania, then passed into the hands of the Ottomans for about 200 years, and finally was annexed by Russia at the end of the 18th century, which would make their units to be part of different army forces of the Eastern European region. Nevertheless, they managed to maintain some independence during all these years. We have tried to portray their culture while showing some influence of their rulers. For the late-age uniform we decided to use a tall shako with leather details, decorative lace on the pants and utility belt, and sashes for the sword and sharp-looking jacket.
The Slovakian units are based upon the region of Nitra, situated in present-day Slovakia, a region mostly that was controlled first by Hungary, and then by the Habsburg monarchy. Our design inspiration drew heavily from early Habsburg military attire. We decided for a more distinctive approach by crafting lighter variations of these uniforms, avoiding bulky breastplates and armor in favor of a more agile appearance.

Secondly, we have updated some of the rewards, making stuff such as Prestige, Army Tradition, or Mercantilism be converted into monarch points should you go over the limit of these resources. For example, the effect add_prestige was replaced by add_prestige_or_monarch_power.

Note: The AI will not declare war through this event on Ajam in order to keep Ajam alive so they can most reliably form Persia.
The highlights of the conquest missions are the following rewards:
Note: The additional missions from “Timurid Empire” will be showcased later.
The mission “Rightful Protector” and its follow-up missions refer to the aforementioned privileges you start with. These would be the following:
You also start with the “Patronage of the Arts” privilege. In order to remove the 2 inconvenient privileges, you have to enact special decisions, which triggers are the following:
As for the Timurid Diwan reform you unlock, it has the following mechanic attached to it:
With that out of the way, let us continue with the branching missions for the Timurids which can be unlocked with the “Timurid Empire”. You have the choice between the “Nomad” branch and the “Persian” branch.
Note: All the new missions are colored in orange for the sake of presentation.
The Persian path, on the other hand, is more focused on internal and cultural development:
Here are the highlights of this mission path:
One special mention goes to the “Reform the Soyurghals” which enables a very unique mechanic for the Timurids here, with a new type of Subject:
That would be the end for the Timurid-focused content, leaving only the Mughals for us to explore. But before that, let me explain why we decided that the Mughals should get a rework. With 1.26 and the accompanying Dharma DLC, the Mughals received their unique content as well as their own set of missions. As time has gone, the quality of the Mughal missions could no longer hold up compared to the ones of the other two Gunpowder Empires. This is the reason we have decided to revisit the Mughals to make them somewhat on par with Persia and the Ottomans.
The spirit of the original mission tree prevails as the new Mughal tree also has a heavy focus on unifying all of India under the Mughal banner. Still, the mission tree also provides some other aspects such as religious tolerance, economy, architecture, military, taxation, and a little bit of diplomacy.
Next are the non-conquest-focused missions, with a wide variety of missions to play with:
Note: the mission icons in these screenshots are from an earlier build. The up-to-date icons can be seen in the overview image of all the missions.
