[OUTDATED] The Fourth Crusade

Description
NOTE:-

This mod is now outdated due to the release of Holy Fury which has its own Fourth Crusade. That one is far better than mine and is the one I ultimately envisioned but thank you to all who played this mod :). I'll leave it up for all those wanting to play with it for the patches from before Holy Fury's release.

_____________________

Have you wanted a bit more historical immersion? Did you want an event besides the Mongols that shapes Europe's political future so profoundly that isn't influenced by you? Well, in 1204, that's exactly what happened.

Adds an event chain surrounding the events of the Fourth Crusade. (Note - Not an adventurer chain).

Trigger conditions:-

Game Rules:-
Historical, Random and Off.

Historical Game Rule:-
- Venice gets the initial event (player or not), Venezia itself must be Catholic.
- Constantinople must not be in the same realm as Venezia and must be Orthodox.
- The Pope must have called a Crusade.
- The year is between 1190 and 1250.
- Cannot have happened already.

Random Game Rule:-
- Must be Republic with a capital in Italy (player or not), capital must be Catholic.
- Constantinople must not be in the same realm as republic and must be Orthodox.
- The Pope must have called a Crusade.
- The year is after 1090.
- Cannot have happened already.

There are several opportunities along the way to get rid of the Crusaders (albeit at a high cost). If you are able to pay 2000 gold to the Crusaders as the Byzantine Emperor, they will go on their way and the Pope will gain the Crusader army.

If not, history will repeat itself. Constantinople will be sacked, much of the Empire will be thrown into disarray and the Emperor will have his hands full.

Hope you enjoy!

PS. Any bugs, questions and/or suggestions, feel free to comment!

Yes I'm long time fan of your historical events pack mod. Sadly Holy Fury made some of them obsolete as you said. I just wish it was guaranteed to happen it every run. That might be HIP change. I will ask them if I can edit the files to make 4th crusade event trigger %100. Thanks for the fast reply, much love.

I think the only real way to get a Fourth Crusade is to either hope or manually look at the event and do it for an appropriate character and then the event itself will fire off normally after that. But that last part might not be appealing if you want to just get on with the game. Sometimes it might not happen, sometimes it might. I can have a look at the game files and see what makes it tick, but I'm not really planning to update this mod, so any changes will likely go in my Historical Events Pack mods.

Espritviril`` Unfortunately not because I actually preferred the way they did it (even if I originally put it in the game via the mod) but I kept this mod in for those who wanted the old version before Holy Fury, which as it turns out might not be that many. For HIP, I have my "Historical Events Pack HIP" version which adds in a couple of events originally from this mod but I've mainly left it to the Holy Fury one because it's done in a much better and much clearer way (in my opinion).

Hello, I play with HIP and there 4th crusade is not guaranteed to happen. Does this mod still work ? I wanna have guaranteed 4th crusade. I used to love this mod before pdx stole your mod and made it a DLC. Will it work with latest patch ?

Ah okay, that'd be nice!
Ooiue  [author] 13 Sep, 2019 @ 4:33am 
Eternantium Possibly, but no guarantee. I only know it works for before Holy Fury, and because it's outdated I was never inclined to update it. I might have a look into it actually

Does this mod still work with the patch? I can't afford HF yet, I'm not sure if the crusade happens in the patch or if you need the DLC. This mod could be valueable to users without the DLC if the crusade is not a patch feature.

el xabeo de la cova As expected really, but the new HF is way better. The only reason I left this mod up is for people who want to play pre-HF and that. Still, thanks for having a look

I have deactivated the HF Fourth Crusade and your mod does not work,
