2020-07-14 v0.46.2 "Kamutef"

Kamutef was an aspect of the minor god Min, himself an aspect of Horus. Kamutef represented the cycle of regeneration of gods and kings. Said to be both the son (as an indirect aspect of Horus) and consort of Isis, Kamutef is born by impregnating Isis who gives birth to Kamutef, who then creates himself again in a never ending cycle.

General:

  • Fixed a bug preventing the Hellenic monastic societies from being joinable.
  • Fixed a bug that caused Kemetic and Reformed Hellenic to use Apostolic succession, even if you chose something other than Hierarchical Leadership.

Celtic:

  • Added a number of minor flavor events related to the minor title of Headsman.
  • You can now collect heads from your enemies in most(?) duels where you kill your opponent. Let me know if I missed any, details are helpful.

2020-01-28 v0.46.1 "Imentet"

Imentet was a minor goddess in Ancient Egyptian religion representing the necropolises west of the Nile. She was the consort of Aqen, a god who guided Ra through parts of the underworld. Although she was never officially worshipped, she was mentioned in various hymns and passages of the Book of the Dead. In many cases she is merged with other, more important, goddesses like Isis or Hathor.

General:

  • Disabled the god list modifications that occur during pagan reformation, as it causes a savegame bug that breaks the god lists.

2020-01-27 v0.46.0 "Isis"

Isis was originally a minor goddess of funerary rites and magical protection; a role mimicking her portrayal in the Osiris myth, where she resurrected her husband Osiris and protected their child Horus. Over the millenia she rose in prominence alongside her husband, eventually eclipsing him in popularity. By the time of the Roman Principate the worship of Isis could be found all over the Mediterranean, with local cults adapting her worship to their own customs.

  • Fixed an issue where a bonus to Celtic Pagan/Druidic opinion wasn't defined.

Hellenic:

  • Fixed an issue where the Skeptic and Epicurean orders were not joinable.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented god names from showing in certain monastic order events.

2019-11-15 v0.45.0 "Nimue"

Nimue, along with several other variant spellings, is given as the name of the Lady of the Lake in several Arthurian legends. Believed to be based on the multitude of goddessses and fairy queens associated with water in Celtic myth, she is the foster mother of Lancelot and his cousins and guides Merlin in his quest to make Arthur a great king of the Britons.

General:

  • Fixed the descriptive text in various immortals events that didn't account for the randomn immortals introduced by this mod.
    • There's like a million of them, I didn't get them all. I'll get back to them periodically when my will to live comes back :/
  • Fixed several missing event pictures.
  • Fixed some interface bugs.
  • Merged changes from latest CK2 version.

Celtic:

  • Removed the Druid requirement from the Chancellor council position for Celtic/Druidic rulers. This was extremely difficult to fulfill for early rulers and was on shakey ground from a lore perspective.

2019-08-24 v0.44.3 "Arianrhod"

Arianrhod is the daughter of Don in Welsh legend. She plays an important role in the Fourth Branch of the Mabinogi when she magically gives birth to two sons while stepping over Math's staff to prove her virginity (and thus her fitness as footholder). The first son was Dylan ail Don, but the second was an amorphous blob of flesh. Eventually this blob would grow up to become "Lleu Llaw Gyffes", "Fair-haired One of the Skillfull Hand", but that's another story...

General:

  • Fixes a bug in the Warrior Lodge hunting events where the new warrior lodges would default to the Norse event description and would not receive the correct rewards when choosing to take the quarry as a trophy.
  • Fixes a bug where Pagan County Conquest was no longer able to be used across one sea zone as intended.
  • Fixes a rare issue with the artifact hunt where the celtic and hellenic subgroup couldn't get their tier 1 artifacts.

2019-07-24 v0.44.1.1 "Goewin"

Goewin was the virgin foot-holder of King Math of Venedotia. Gilfaethwy, nephew to the king, became obsessed with her and convinced Gwydion to help him have his way with her. The trickster stole magic pigs from another king to trigger a war. During the confusion Gilfaethwy rapes the innocent woman. For this transgression Math turns both men into wild animals for three years.

General:

  • Steam botched the upload for the Gwydion update, so this should hopefully fix that.

General:

  • Merges Irish history changes from CK2 3.2.1

2019-06-20 v0.44.0 "Danu"

Danu; variously Dan, Don, Donnu, etc., was the mother goddess of the ancient Celts. Her legend is shared across all Celtic peoples; when the world was barren Danu was desperately lonely. She began to weep and her tears formed the rivers. Where they flowed life was born.

General:

  • Merged in changes from CK2 3.2

Hellenic:

  • Reformed Hellenic will use a Collegium Pontificum if reformed with Theocratic Leadership.

Promethean:

  • Fixes bug with the Neoplatonist societies where no matter what you chose you would end up in the Stoics.
  • Introducing 'Promethean Prosperity'
    • A set of decisions used on individual counties to build up the population and economy, increasing prosperity to prepare for the next Expansion War.
    • Stimulate Growth: Reduce local taxes and redirect some of it to a grain dole for the poor. Effect is a 25% reduction in local taxes. After 25 years a large amount of prosperity is added via event.
    • Sponsor Local Festival: Infuse a small amount of gold (10gp) into the local economy by sponsoring one of the many small festivals that happened in the era for a slight increase in prosperity immediately. There is a six month cooldown on the province for this decision.
    • Invest in Infrastructure: Put down 100gp to improve the infrastructure in the province. A modifier will be applied for 20 years, allowing some events to be triggered to increase prosperity. This is probably the best bang for your buck.
    • Open For Settlement: Open the province to unrestricted settlement. Unlike the Resettlement Mechanic of moving levels of prosperity, Open Settlement is disorganized and slow. Events will fire over time that will increase prosperity.
      • Some of these settlers will come from foreign territories, and will bring their foreign ideas with them.
      • Every group of foreigners that enter the province will increase the Foreign Influence in the province. The higher this is, the more likely you will experience friction between the settlers and the locals, creating revolt risk.
      • These events will continue to fire until one of three things happens:
        1. You manually end open settlement via title decision.
        2. The province reaches Prosperity 2.
        3. The province is no longer controlled by a Promethean.

Kemetic:

  • Kemetic head of religion name is back to being Paragon, as the dynamic thing doesn't work.
  • Disabled the old "Build Pyramid" decision, as the new Great Works is a better feature.
    • The old buildings will remain for the foreseeable future, you just won't be able to make more.
  • You can now form the empire of Aai-Kemet (basically Greater Egypt) if you are of an Egyptian religion, hold the title of Egypt and the dejure lands of Egypt and Nubia, and the duchies of Cyrenaica, Jerusalem, and Oultrajourdain.
    • This empire works much like the Roman Empire does, immediately moving your kingdoms into it's dejure and enabling a special Reconquest CB.
      • This CB targets dejure duchies in Africa, Egypt, Nubia, Abyssinia, Jerusalem, Syria, Antioch, and Cyprus.

2019-05-11 v0.43.3 "Vesontio"

Vesontio was the site of a battle between Gaius Julius Caesar's 6 Roman legions and the armies of Ariovistus in 58 BC. The Roman's nearly lost, if not for a snap judgement by Crassus to send the infantry reserve to support the right flank, the German's may have been able to encircle Caesar's forces. Ariovistus is believed to have escaped, but his exact fate is unknown except that he was dead before 54 BC drew to a close.
