Mongols

== What are the Mongols? ==

The two Mongol factions in Crusader Kings, the Golden Horde (Tag: GOLD) and Il-Khanate (Tag: ILKH), are used by the developers of CK to represent the Mongol invasions of the Middle East, Russia and Europe during the Middle Ages.

== The Mongols are not on the map, when will they arrive? ==

The Golden Horde can (re-)appear between 1212 and 1252

The Ilkhanate can (re-)appear between 1227 and 1266

They appear using province-based events in which tens of thousands of Mongol forces can appear in a province and begin waging war on Europe.

== Are the Mongols to be feared? ==

Yes! There are a whole host of events which give the Mongols a lot of troops to give them a foothold in Europe, detailed in the mongol_invasion_events.txt file in Crusader Kings/db/events/ folder. Also, any ruler that holds either the title of GOLD or ILKH gets a hardcoded +1000 demesne bonus.

== This sounds silly, are the Mongols going to destroy me and my game completely? ==

The Mongols do sometimes greatly change the face of Europe, but Paradox has put in some measures to make gameplay balanced. The "Dynastic succession in the Horde" series of events in mongol_invasion_events.txt ensures that eventually, the Hordes will be forced to adopt Gavelkind (their vassals not getting the +1000 demesne bonus) and break apart. However, be prepared to fight some hard wars especially if you are situated anywhere in Eastern Europe.

Bishopric

== What is a Bishopric? ==

Bishoprics are counties that are ruled by a bishop.

== How do Bishoprics differ from Counties? ==

#Only males with a finished ecclestial education can be made a bishop
#Creating a bishopric doesn't reduce your badboy-points, it gives you a one-time piety-bonus of between 150 and 300 piety. If you give an existing bishop another county or make him an archbishop (= give him a duketitle) then you will get a BB-reduction.
#Bishops have no demesne-limits, so they won't create sub-vassals
#Bishops get a loyalty bonus if you have positive piety, which means that bishops are less likely to revolt
#You can't lose a bishopric through inheritance, a normal vassal can be inherited by someone from outside your realm, a bishopric can't be inherited
#If a bishop becomes Pope and he is your direct vassal then you will get all his titles back

== Inheritance in a Bishopric ==

When a bishop dies, the game will automatically will appoint a new bishop. That new bishop can come from:

a) The Papal court

b) The court of the Papal Controller

c) The court of the bishopric

d) The game creates a randomly new character to fill the see

Regardless of where the new Bishop comes from, the Bishopric will always remain part of your realm. See Point 5 above.

=== Note on Inheritance ===

It is worth noting however that you can lose a Bishop and his lands if '''he''' inherits lands elsewhere e.g. if you are King of England and you end up with the King of Scotland's first son in your court and you appoint him Bishop of Oxford, when the King of Scotland dies his son will inherit and take the County of Oxford with him. In other words, the Bishopric cannot be inherited, but the Bishop can inherit other lands and take the Bishopric lands with him. This is a very rare occurrence but worth knowing about.

Cheat Codes

Admin — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 18:27:49 GMT

Admin:

Yes Yes I know... this is the dirty underside of gaming and why would any respectable player stoop to the low level of using a cheat code... Well for those of us familiar with Paradox games... sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. We all know the frustration of a carefully laid and executed plan that was totally ruined at the last minute by a game bug that the designers have just not gotten around to fixing yet… You know those bugs… Some vassal not following your wishes for peace, the crappy stat king that lives to the ripe old age of 103 despite having every illness known to mankind, the Stupid count that obstinately refuses to allow his very beautiful and talented daughter marry your equally talented and heir to the throne son, the stupid courtier blackmailing you for thousands of gold coin when he can’t even add 2 and 2, or that eternal call from the pope to crusade draining your piety even though you haven’t a penny to your name and you’ve just spent the last 5 years fighting off the Mongols.

Lets face it in every paradox game there’s always the wrong that needs righting and there will always be a situation or two in a game were your perfectly justified in popping open the F12 window and just tweaking the game play a little bit.

Anyway, Here is a list of the known Cheat codes and what they do. I’ve filtered through my own gaming experience and the forums to find all this. To access these codes merely hit F12 and type in the code. Then hit F12 and another key to remove the screen. …. Updated Sept 20th 2004 game version 1.4b.

== Economic cheats ==

Simple… adds stuff to your resource counts

"'''gold'''" – adds 1000 gold to your stockpile

"'''prestige'''" – adds 1000 prestige to your score

"'''piety'''" – adds 1000 piety to your score

== Gameplay Cheats ==

Cheats that affect the way the actual gameplay directly and how you interact with the AI. These cheats are like toggle switches Typing the cheat again turns it off

"'''die'''" – kills the currently selected character. Careful with this one… if you don’t have a character selected properly you’ll end up killing someone else unintentionally… Like YOU!. Make sure the characters window is open and selected before typing in Die.

"'''byzantine'''" – forces AI to accept all diplomatic suggestions, (peace offers, marriage offers, vassalization offers, revoke title) and assassinations always succeed. However the negative BB effects and such from the actions are still in effect. Works like Victoria’s "neville" cheat

"'''norevolts'''" – as reported makes it so revolts of armed forces end and then don’t happen.. However it likely does NOT prevent the Revolt tag from triggering in a province prevent unhappy Vassals from declaring independence. Two effects much more serious than any actual revolt I’ve ever encountered.

== Global Cheats ==

These are cheats that affect the way the game appears and affect the game screen and options… things like that. These cheats are like toggle switches; typing the cheat again turns it off.

"'''handsoff'''"- theoretically turns your dynasty over to AI control. However it appears it mostly just keeps your game running through popup events instead of pausing like many events do.

"'''nofog'''" – removes the fog of war on the game.. Type it again to turn the fog back on. This is not permanent. You'll have to turn the fog back off every time you start up the game again.

"'''difrules'''" – reportedly gives godlike powers… not sure exactly what that means though.

"'''showid'''" – shows provinces ID information on the screen. Similar to the Victoria event.

== Event Cheats ==

These are a little different in CK due to the two types of events. Character events affect your character, and province events affect a province. However use these with caution and it sounds like CTD’s are a common effect of running these events so I’d recommend you save your game before attempting one. To get these events to fire you need to:

Character events:
a. Select the character that is to receive the event
b. Open F12 console
c. Type: charevent ???? (where ????=event ID#)

Province events:
a. Select the province that is to receive the event
b. Open F12 console
c. Type: provevent ???? (where ????=event ID#)

== Miscellaneous Cheats ==

CK for some reason has several cheats that appear to not function but don’t give an error in the console window. Or cheats that I’ve actually never used and am not sure of their effects They are….

"'''nowar'''" – in other Paradox games this disables countries from declaring war. Not sure if it’s effective in CK.. the cheat may prevent DOW’s on you personally but it appears your vassals can still be declared war on.

"'''fullcontrol'''" – in other Paradox games this gives you godlike control of all aspects of the game..

"'''eureka'''" – suppose to give tech advances.. reportedly doesn’t work.

"I can tell you about this one (and it does work). I had this "cheat" custom-scripted for my personal use when I was scripting the advances_discovery and advances_spread event files. The effect is to change the mtth calculations to turn off the event optimisation routines so that every single event is tested every single day, and adjust the results to produce the effect of each day representing an entire year's probability of each event firing. This was coded in late alpha/early beta when I needed to run repeated tests on a full game's worth of tech discovery and spread and then analyse the results to tweak various mtth values, etc. so that the end result met design criteria. I would not recommend using ths cheat unless you deactivate all other event files because it will slow down the game to a crawl (about 3-5 seconds per day as things progress) and is only really useful for that one purpose."

-MrT

"'''paranoia'''" – reported on the forums but no clue what it does or what it’s for.

"'''help'''" – reported to give you a slew of useless information. Hmm… typical!. I guess there’s a little bit of Microsoft in every software design company…
