Upon a Crimson Horse

Description


Introduction
I had a vision in the night, and behold, a man riding on a crimson horse...

The situation of the Timurid Empire in the first few decades of EU4's timeframe is woefully underrated and misunderstood by most, leaving a period of great intrigue mostly cast aside.

Well, no more. This mod seeks to represent the Succession Crises that shook Iran to it's very core, crafting a disaster not for the faint of heart, and a new opportunity for outsiders to get involved in new ways...

Will you attempt to reunify the Timurid Empire as a Prince, attempt to forge a new Persian state from within as a Governor, or burn it all down for your own personal glory as an Interloper? It is all up to you in this Iranian game of thrones.

Features
  • A new unique disaster, and a repeating variant of it, involving a long, brutal, and drawn out multi-way war.
  • Up to 150 new events.
  • Incredible art work by Xorme.
  • A new subject type.
  • 4 new Casus Bellis.
  • An entire Timurid Empire system of mechanics.
  • Entirely overhauled starting setup of the Iran region to be more accurate.
  • 70+ new tags for each province in Iran!

Special Thanks
  • LordVarangian - Their Timurids content for EE originally inspired the seeds of this mod years back, and them playing it for 9 hours straight during playtesting helped, LOL
  • Kyhler - Originally was part of team, but had to go off on his own due to team size limit. Made Winds of Silk as a result (I recommend using it whilst playing this mod!)
  • Lia - Pioneer for the modern era of Scripted GUI, inspiration for the technique used for the UI.

There's a vicious bug in your update, TIM and its subject country mission book is missing, and the source file I checked was only a "UaCH_OPM" file, and the contents inside were also mutilated

well, entirety of the pretender nations are occupied with 3 other pretender factions. 100% autonomy gameplay, 9/10

one thing i *think* happened was when my regent stepped down for my heir, it counted as a ruler death and made me go into another crisis :(

@TerranR Former has just been fixed on the repo side (and will be uploaded with a bigger bugfix patch), and we planned on the latter.

Mod is cool, but need some polishing. Because when I try escpae to India, disaster doesnt vanish and starts again, so I can declare wars in India. And sussgest making Shakruh death more scripted, because if he died in ffirst month, Juki decided who will be heir and that strange.
Sorry for my bad english

@ReconUHD Hi. White peace with Ajam was probably because it got made a subject of someone at one point, then spit out later. We're going to disable the "cancel subject" peace treaty in the next update, as it causes a few issues and the AI loves doing it.

As for there never being a war with Fars in the first place, could you tell me some more? Haven't encountered that bug before. The save file would be appreciated, if you could send it to me over discord ( sol_invictusxlii )

I hope the cleanup event caught those and put you back to war with them both in a year or so.

Glad you enjoyed the mod, hope you have fun with the rest of that run!

just did a Samarkand into Mongolisation. Good mod.

Once I got white peace with Ajam for unclear reasons (maybe because it attacked by interloper QQ).

I also sat without a truce for two years with Fars, not sure why there was never a war between us in the first place.

@Mike Tven it's just a normal subject that doesn't calculate other subjects' strength for its liberty desire (like HRE revoke vassals). It's there so the Timurids don't instantly die.

Hi, where can I read the explanation of this new subject? Emirate
