Imperial Stratocracy - Education Foci

Kurthakon the creator of this mod has passed away in real life.
To honor his memory please continue his legacy and please credit him, from his sister.

While the new Imperial government type for the Byzantines/Romans is shiny and all, with it you can only employ landed commanders. This becomes especially frustrating with the Conclave education system, which is mostly pure RNG for the AI on which childhood and education foci it chooses. So you quickly end up with quite martially incompetent vassal commanders.

This rather minor mod fixes this by adding weights/factors for the AI Childhood/Education choices.
About ¾ of all male children with an Imperial government-type top liege will choose the Struggle and Martial Education foci. Keep in mind that these weights will only apply when the top liege is of the Imperial government type.

Female children under the Imperial government will also choose martial educations more frequently if either of the conditions below is true for top liege:

• The final Status of Women law has been enacted.
  
• Religion has a Matriarchal religion feature (for reformed pagan religions)
  
• “Feminist” religion (for example Cathar, Messalian and etc.)
  
• “Feminist” culture (Basque, Zhangzhung and Sumpa)
  
• If succession law of top liege is either 'Absolute Cognatic', 'Enatic-Cognatic' or Enatic succession

Requires Conclave!

I've made another version of this mod called Imperial Stratocracy: Better AI Compatible that's compatible with Better AI: Roleplaying Education Focus. Just click here, if you are interested such a version of my mod. Also don't run both versions of my mod at the same mod as they will conflict with each other.

Should be compatible with most mods, expect for those that alters the childhood and education focus files listed below.

• 00_zeus_childhood_focuses.txt
  
• 00_zeus_education_focuses.txt

There is no need to start a new game for this mod, just load it up and it should start applying when the children reaches their respective age limit for the childhood/education focus.
Also you should ble able turn on and off Imperial Stratocracy at your leisure without it breaking any of your saves.

HIP - EMF compatible version (Frosty3) HERE[1drv.ms].

Imperial Stratocracy unfortunately alters the checksum out of neccesity, so this mod is NOT achievement friendly.

Please leave a post in the discussion forum if you discover a bug, or have any suggestions on any improvements I could make.

If the mod won't download or update properly for you, try to subscribe to the mod while the game launcher is running, or alternatively while the game is already loaded up to the main menu.
