Play as Pope
Update for 1.19
A mod that turns the Papacy and Kingdom of Romagna into an administrative government. Will need Roads to Power DLC
Papacy will start as a sort of weird theocracy/feudal hybrid before you take the decision.
Steps
-chose a Pope from 867,1066 or 1178
-Take the decision, your children will now be known as legitimized bastards and form the admin government.
(This is a play on some popes not being married and having children during that time period). You will get the monk trait.
-Create a Duchy to access title heir and estate.
-Give heirs land to secure succession( You can give them the papacy title if it isn’t your primary if you wish to play different heirs)
-Pope succession still theocracy even though heirs both men and women can press claims on the pope title.
-Make Admin Family interaction where you can make your heirs into cadet branches and also non lowborn courtiers into your admin vassal.
Bugs
estate mechanism is weird sometimes on succession. Will look into this more later on. Added make Admin character interaction if succession gets wonky in later generations
I wanted to take some elements from the dead Popes and Doges mod but it rewrites a ton of vanilla files that would be a pain to fix. Would love to see it come back.
Just a middle ground solution for people wanting to be the pope in their playthrough as alot of older ones havent been updated or broke after AUH.
Required DLC:
These DLC should be installed in order to use this item.
