It's been a while since the last time I've played a full 3rd odyssey campaign, so some of my suggestions might not work with this version, but I'm loving this so far. I've always felt that the reconquest of the old world was a little unsatisfying. I mean you leave as an orthodox Greek and come back to liberate Greece as a heretic foreigner. My idea would be for two new events or crisises, like the religious wars early game. One cultural and one religious one. They could end with either the assimilation of the other, a full out civil war, or an attempt of unifying the two sites. If you go of the unification route (by trying to smooth the relationships of the two) then for the culture all cultures of the other cultural group will exist to the other too, by existing to the other like a dead culture. I don't know which cultural group would be best. Probably the Elysian? As for religion there could be a new ecumenical council through an event, between Elysia, Russia and Spartakon, and if you have good relations with the other two, then all Eastern and Elysian Orthodox countries and provinces will become a generic Orthodoxy with that is a unification of the two and their mechanics, else you get minor religious acceptance, and can try again in the future. I know that it might be a lot, but it would be amazing if you could add these things!

Idea for the Knights and Venetians, possibly if you convert them to Orthodoxy you get the option to send the Knights out west past the Appalachians once you secure the Elysian Coast to serve as a series of Subjects out west to help civilize the natives quicker, though hamper YOUR development personally as these nations end up like integratable colonial subjects, possibly an option with the Venetians and South America/Arcadia too?

Or a military reform from the Knights focusing on Army Tradition and Discipline, at the cost of Infantry Fire?

Here's a few more ideas for wanders. You could turn the Mikri Galata and to a monument, as well as the column of Odyssey to a forum monument. Additionally you could add a Greek fire related one, as well as a Varangian one, as they seem somewhat lackluster from the main mod. Additionally, I think New Constantinople deserves a Great Palace wonder, and maybe a University too. Or maybe the university could be to New Alexandria, together with the Library. Also, while your focus is at Elysia, the church that Sparta gets for completing its initial mission tree, should be a monument too

A few more ideas would be to add a varangian and a knights estates, that could fight each other based on their influence and loyalty, and maybe their privileges.

Maybe you could also add an option to buy ships from the Genoes of galata, at the flight event tree, for a hefty price, for additional supplies. Maybe even try and take some of them with you, like Giovanni Giustiniani's company maybe. Also you could add the option to visit the Komninian Trapezus and Georgia, or even the crusading state of Cyprus. Though I don't know what exactly they would give you yet, as I'm just throwing ideas seeing if something catches your interest.

Anyway, keep up the good work! I can't wait to see what more you add!

Siberian Frontiers for Elysia?

Since the Orthodox patriarch was in Constantinople at the time of the Odyssey, it would make sense to have the option to bring him with you (greatly strenghtening the church estate, and undermining the Plethonists) or not.

You Should add a Reaction from christian Europe if you Elysia is Pagan, Mostly From Spain

A third syncratic religious path trying to reconcile both Hellenic Paganism, and Elysian Orthodoxy, very dangerous, many ways to go bad very easily, but very intresting options and rewards also.

The Byzantines should be able to become Catholic if they plead for help to the pope, which historically aids country's that convert. This could introduce more disasters, flavor, etc. I just think it would be cool.

Unique new option for the reformation of Hellenism event that allows you to choose a list of personal deities that includes Christ as a personal deity (if you manage to stay neutral during the Hellenic-Orthodox split), this option applies a conversion boost towards Christian provinces and applies a -100% Local Religious Unity Contribution, when converted former Christian provinces will have a local modifier that indicates this is a former Christian province, and so you have a lot of people whom have Christ as their personal deity.

Christ when chosen as a personal deity would apply buffs to Christian provinces AND former Christian provinces (the ones with the local modifier mentioned above upon conversion)

can we make a flight decision for when we are fleeing to Elysium to take other people other than the turks or albanians with us? For example: Germans,Goths etc or a really wild one; Persian Zoroastrians that want to flee the Islamic threat
Firstly it would be an idea to expand the Orhan/Skander decision to possibly include a couple of other characters. 1) Giovanni Giustiniani (who could lead a modest Genoese retinue from Galata, this could confer additional bonuses if the player chooses Genoese help rather than Venice at the beginning of the event chain) 2) Kallikratos (leader of the Cretan mercenaries who defended the Blacharne in the siege of 1453, could join the expedition). The choices would allow the player to take any 3 of the 4 people in question across the entire chain (the one option who remains, stays in the old city).

Secondly, assuming Orhan is taken on the expedition (and the city isn't left to him), there ought to be a supplementary decision to hand over Constantinople to the Komnenoi in Trebizond (which would then be allied / guaranteed by Hungary). Assuming Orhan is left to defend the city and bid for the throne, maybe an event chain could fire to draw together an alliance of the Turkic Beyliks against the Ottoman threat. Also, a small black sea flotilla (from Trebizond & Theodoro, upon hearing of the handover of the city) could join and add a small amount of supplies and combat power to the fleet (possibly adding an extra barque or two upon landing in America).

Lastly, maybe add an option to only take on half the supplies in Sicily? Maybe the FULL allotment of resupply would grant 2 levels of supply to the expedition, and the half option could grant just one?
