Description:

Small scale mod, mainly trying to add new religious content and map updates since Paradox will stop doing it for EU4, even though the game isn’t close to a satisfying state in those fronts.

#Version history (currently 0.2 + half of 0.3):

– 390 new provinces (including the wastelands)
primarily in:
West Africa, Horn of Africa, Sudan/Nubia, East Africa, the Zambezi basin Japan, China, Korea, Tibet, France, the British Isles, Ukraine, European Russia, Hungary, Scandinavia, the Baltics, The Alps, Eastern Anatolia, The Levant, the Caucasus, Polynesia, Micronesia and Siberia
– but also smaller additions with:
-3 new provinces: Brazil, Caucasus
-2 new provinces: Greece, Castile, Canada
-1 new province: Turkey, Morocco, Kabylia, Libya, Egypt, Portugal, Mozambique, Serbia
– new wastelands in: Europe (Alps, Iberia, Carpathians, Balkans), Africa (Horn of Africa, Togo and smaller bits of Sahara), North America (the Great Basin has been carved out) and South America (the Andes + Patagonia) among others…
– new cultures: more than 100 but not all are used or even have tags
– dozens of new culture groups
– new tags, mainly in Oceania, France, the British Isles, Eastern Europe, Siberia, the Caucasus, West Africa, Sudan, Horn of Africa, East Africa, the Zambezi and Tibet
– 4 pagan religions from Crusader Kings (code and graphical files taken from Ante Bellum, but I will remove them if the creator (Parmelion) isn’t ok with this)
– an original Celtic Religion (base concept, descriptions and most icons for the Celtic Patron Deities by Maddie and their friend, coding by me)
– As, for the bonuses for Celtic, numbers are still subject to later change. Furthermore, there are 3 Gallo-Roman Gods (the last ones of the list) that I made unavalaible normally as their "celticity" is controversial. If you want to play with them (as they exist in the code) I made an event titled "celtic_xav.1" that you will have to enter in the game console.
– Polynesian and Hellenic religions (for now they have no mechanics)
– 2 meme religions as well for my close circle of friends (only one has mechanics)
– decisions for celtic cultures, and decisions for other paganist revivals

Future ambitions (for 0.3 and beyond):

The remaining of 0.3 content:
– more local religions to replace Animism in some parts of the world, at least for role-play purposes
– national ideas for the new tags
– Yaqui update
– any major bugfix that i somehow missed

Other stuff that will come later:
– Polynesian and Hellenic mechanics (respectively reskins of Karma (i dont even know if this is mechanically possible) and Personal Deities), and restrictions for Celtic Patron Deities (I want to implement this as late as possible because I am afraid of killing the fun, but it will have to be done)
– add new cults for Fetishist nations (as they are more them now, they deserve better representation)
– future possible map updates (new provinces and/or tags):
the Americas (Mexico, Florida, Aridoamerica, PNW, and pretty much all of South America), South Africa, Central Africa, Central Asia and the Sahara, all by order of priority (but ofc some of them will receive a lot more effort than others)
– future improvements on already visited parts of the map:
none for now, but Siberia isn’t out the question
– more formables (I will try to keep them secret)

Notes:
– the mod only supports English language
– despite all the provinces I added, it is unlikely that areas will rebablanced for now, as it would break a lot of mission trees and I’m not ready for this type of work at the moment. (some areas have been rebalanced, but the vast majority of them are not, mainly in Africa)
– I will not touch the regions that received map updates and content in Leviathan for now, for obvious reasons.
