CK2 GOT Challenges- House Reyne Challenge #2: Reign In Blood

Hey guys, this is a challenge put together by /u/Callywood from https://reddit.com/r/ck2gotchallenges.
I found /u/Callywood 's challenges, and decided to use my Paradox modding experience to work with him to make a mod based on his challenge.

Below is the challenge from /u/Callywood 's original post https://www.reddit.com/r/ck2gotchallenges/comments/6xjmed/house_reyne_challenge_2_reign_in_blood/

Preamble:
You are the bastard son of Sir Rafford Reyne, the only survivor of the Reyne-Tarbeck Revolt which ended in the near extinction of your family and the destruction of your ancestral seat Castamere. Your grandfather Lord Roger Reyne, known as the Red Lion, led a small army alongside his bannermen the Tarbecks against the ruthless butcher Lord Tywin Lannister and his weak father Lord Tytos the Toothless Lion for control over the Westerlands. For too long the Rock had been ruled by unworthy tyrants who deserved neither loyalty nor respect. Though greatly outnumbered your grandfather’s cause was just and your family fought with the kind of valor and bravery that legends are made of. However the combined strength of the Lannister, Westerling, Banefort, Plumm, Marbrand, Prester, and Stackspear forces overwhelmed the Red Lion’s army leading to the deaths of many, including your father, and a desperate retreat into the safety of Castamere.
Badly wounded and out of options, Lord Roger’s brother Ser Reynard sued for peace with the Lannisters to no avail. Determined to make an example of your family, Lord Tywin blocked the entrance to your family’s subterranean seat and had a nearby stream dammed and diverted towards Castamere to drown all those holed up inside. 300 men, women, and children died inside those watery halls while the deserted surface castle was set ablaze. And so ended one of the wealthiest and most powerful families in all of Westeros whose blood dated back all the way to the Age of Heroes. Or at least that’s what the singers say.
The truth is one bastard baby boy survived, smuggled out of the Westerlands by your cousins the Vikarys. Though you were not a trueborn Reyne the Vikarys knew that if Lord Tywin got word that a grandson of the Red Lion still lived he would stop at nothing to have you killed. And so you were raised in secret in the far reaches of Essos where your identity would not be discovered. Eventually when you came of age you were told of your true lineage, and ever since you have waited and prayed for the day when you can at last return home and take vengeance upon the murderers of your family.
Many years later the Gods have answered your prayers in the form of a Great War that threatens to tear apart all 7 kingdoms. With almost all the lands of Westeros waging open war upon each other now is the perfect time for you to strike. You left Westeros a bastard boy in exile but you will return a man grown ready to rain vengeance down upon your enemies. And when the golden lions of the Rock are no more the people will remember your words.
“Fight for justice, kill for vengeance, reign in blood!”

Optional Setup Additions (Easy Mode):
Give yourself claims on the lordship and high lordship of Casterly Rock as well as the lordship of Lannisport (command "claim d_casterly_rock charid", "claim c_casterly_rock charid", and "claim c_lannisport charid").


Rules:
Your character cannot change culture or religion under any circumstances.
The houses Lannister, Westerling, Banefort, Plumm, Marbrand, Prester, and Stackspear are your sworn enemies. These are the houses that marched on Castamere and destroyed your family. You are constantly plotting their downfall at every possible opportunity. Neither you nor your children may marry into these families. You are determined to see their lines extinguished. The Drumms are also enemies for stealing your family’s ancestral sword Red Rain. Sooner or later they will all taste the cold steel of your blade.
Houses Vikary, Jast, Osgrey, and Grandison are your allies and you cannot let these families go extinct under any circumstances. The Vikarys in particular are a cadet branch of the Reynes and the only family you have left. Without them you would have been just another corpse laid at the feet of that monster Tywin Lannister. You will help your allies whenever possible in their offensive and defensive wars unless they are attacking each other.
Keep the blood of the Red Lion going by only marrying redheads into the male line of your house. Also do not degrade your ancient heritage by marrying fat people. The lion must remain red and strong.
Your house descends from a long line of warriors with great martial prowess and you will not permit the breaking of this tradition. All would-be heirs must be trained in combat and prove themselves worthy of their inheritance. Should your heir be weak and unfit you will see them disinherited and sent to the Nights Watch unless you have no better sons to take their place.

Objectives:
Conquer every island in the Stepstones and crown yourself King of the Stepstones. Legitimize yourself as a true Reyne and grant out the titles in the Western, Southern, and Northern Stepstones to your own loyal men. The Stepstones will henceforth be your new naval base and the staging ground from which you will reclaim your family’s sword and your ancestral home.
Declare war on the Iron Islands to reclaim your ancestral sword Red Rain from the Drumms. With a fleet and a crew of loyal men at your side the Ironborn scum will be no match for your might. Kill any Drumms you get your hands on. Once Red Rain is yours the next phase of your plan can begin.
Conquer the Westerlands and reclaim your ancestral home of Castamere at long last. You will finish what your grandfather started and rise up as the new ruler of the Rock. Kill any Lannister, Westerling, Banefort, Plumm, Marbrand, Prester, and Stackspear you get your hands on during the war. Once the war is won you will do to the Lannisters what Lord Tywin did to your family you will do to his by killing every last man, woman, and child of his house (excluding the royal family, you will deal with them later). The blood of the lions will rain down upon them and wash away every trace of their house for all time.
Change your primary title to the Kingdom of the Westerlands and begin the rebuilding process of Castamere and Tarbeck Hall. Change the county capital of Bramhope to Tarbeck Hall and rename the province accordingly. These once great castles will rise again stronger and more glorious than ever before.
Take the Lannisters ancestral lands of Casterly Rock and Lannisport for yourself. Casterly Rock will serve as your new home while you rebuild Castamere and Tarbeck Hall to their former glory. Rename Lannisport to Casterport so that all trace of the Lannisters is destroyed for good
