(DEPRECATED) Normans Can Raid

Description
Due to a bug in Steam Workshop, I am unable to update this item (for bugfixes etc). Please use the re-uploaded version, here.

Summary:
This micro-mod gives Normans the ability to raid. This is not particularly historically-accurate; it's just a bit of fun.

Compatibility/Impact:
  • Required CK2 version: 3.3.5.1
  • Achievement compatible: No
  • Safe to add to existing game: Yes
  • Safe to remove from existing game: Yes
  • Changes to vanilla files: None
  • Mod compatibility: Should be compatible with all other mods
  • Changes to AI behaviour: AI Normans can raid too!
  • Decrease in game difficulty: Minor
  • Localisation: English only
  • Mod development status: Feature-complete with no known bugs

Other Versions / Alternate Download / Reuse:
  • All of my CK2 mods are version-controlled via a Github repository[github.com] (eg. if you want earlier/beta versions of any of my mods).
  • I also publish a zip version[github.com] of this mod on Github.
  • All of my mods are published on Github under the MIT license, and I'm following the same logic here on the workshop. Essentially, you're welcome to reuse my mods in any way you wish as long as you provide attribution (eg. credit and/or a link).

Peace is also necessary to raid. :))

But did they actually raid? They were certainly daring conquerors and adventurers, but I'm not aware of any significant Viking-like raiding by Normans. Or, indeed, anything like the frequent tribal/nomadic raids (modelled by the fact that both those government forms can raid in-game). Also note that there were independent Normans in Italy, North Africa, Cyprus, etc - so it's not simply that their overlords prevented them.

Still, I won't deny that it's fun for Normans to be able to raid, and it kinda makes sense given their Viking origin - hence this mod :-)

This is actually accurate: You need your liege to be also able to be raid to you to be able to raid. And Normans were descended from Vikings.
