The Kings set the Inquisition to unify the Kingdom with just one religion. They have jusz conquered Granada and they need this to complete the Reconquista but now in a spiritual way. The Spanish Inquisition in 4 centuries maybe kill 100 mire or less in Spain. In England the protestants killed more than 10.000 catholics (also Thomas Moore) in few years.

You know well the history about the religion I guess. You can use this map for your campaing. Don't fall in english propaganda to describe the Spanish Inquisition. Good luck.

I'm fascinated and shocked by the long history of the Inquisition (it lastet more than 700 years!). It had many different faces and places where people were persecuted, but the general approach was the same.
And I also don't intend to make the Spanish Inquisition, the Pope or the Apostolic Brethren to look like the bad guys.

I have never heard of the English Inquisition, but I'm intrigued to learn more and maybe do you scenario as well.
Other parts I have planned: Japan arount 1640 (same approach of methodic prosecution, against the Protestant in Japan) / Bernard Gui (a French inquisitor of the Dominican Medieval Inquisition) / and more..
So you see, the Spanish Inquisition would only be a small part in a bigger narrative :steamhappy:

I want to tell the story of the beginning of the Spanish Inquisition, that was established in 1478 by Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. It replaced the Medieval Inquisition, which was under Papal control. I find it interesting that it was the monarchs starting it in Spain, and not the Catholic Church.
In the scenario you would take contol over the Spanish Inquisiton and fight against the Jewish converso and morisco conversos (people who had converted from Islam).
The scenario ist just one part in my campaign about the inquisition in general. I already did a scenario about the Apostolic Brethren (a Christian sect founded in northern Italy around 1300), where you fight against the pontifex.

All about Spanish Inquisition was lies about the enemies of Spain. The english inquisition killed more people in less time, but the Propaganda from England and Nethermands worked properly. It depends what do you want to do. Tell me your plan about your scenario.

I really like your map design, well done!
I'm thinking about doing a historical scenario about the Spanish Inquisition and wanted to ask,
if I may use your map as a groundwork for it. If I would release it, obviously your name would appear in the credits. xD Let me know what you think.
