Artifact Acquisition and Overhaul

Description
Ever thought there weren't enough artifacts in the game? Especially for those poor pagans? Have you ever wondered why getting artifacts isn't something you can actively do unless you raid? Well then, this mod solves all those problems.

What started out as just a single decision and event chain has now evolved into this monstrosity. In addition to adding ways to obtain artifacts from other characters, this mod now adds a respectable amount of custom artifacts and their associated events.

What this mod does:
  • Adds new ways to take artifacts from other characters, for both player and AI
  • Rebalances vanilla artifacts
  • Adds a bunch of new artifacts
  • Adds new events and decisions related to new artifacts
  • Completely removes the chance of artifacts being lost on inheritance
  • Check the "Features list" in the discussion tab for a full list

Future plans:
  1. Adding artifacts and events to the following religions:
    • Christian
    • Muslim
    • Jewish
    • Zoroastrian
    • Germanic
    • West African Pagan
    • Finnish/Suomenusko
    • Slavic
    • Baltic/Romuvan
    • Tengri
    • Zunist
    • Indian
    • Hellenic
  2. Adding some misc artifacts
  3. A large in depth mechanic for version 2.0 moved to seperate mod

Art:
Auirus:
  • Raskovnik
  • Pelt of the Nemean Lion
  • Joyeuse, both versions
Hart: Main mod image and EVERY other artifact image. Without this guy I would have probably stopped adding more stuff long ago.

Compatibility:
  • Vanilla: V3.0
  • HIP: HIP Release - 2019-07-23 (Golden2)
  • This is NOT achievement compatible
  • This is NOT savegame compatible
  • Not compatible with CK2+
  • NOT compatible with other full overhauls/total conversions (use the Standalone version at the bottom for thrse)

  • Compatible with other mod added artifacts
  • Not compatible with any mod that alters the following files:
    1. 00_artifacts
    2. 01_artifacts_books
    3. 02_artifacts_wonders
    4. 00_artifact_spawns
    5. mnm_artifacts_events

Note on updates:

Please assume everything in the updates is save game compatible. Except any artifacts that spawn on start and anything i specifically state isn't, check the changelog.

can someone please explain like im 5 on how to restore the Carolingian Empire decision from this mod? what counties of italy do i need to own and what counties can i not own inorder to make this work? it says to own all of northern italy up to spoleto and not latium. i do not own the duchie of latium at all, not even any of the de jure counties, they all belong to the pope. and why does it say up to spoleto? do i NEED to own the whole duchie or do i need to NOT own it? its really confusing and im an idiot

Is joyeuse Supposed to dissapear on inheritance? I started the game as herbert of vermandois in the 1066 start date. Immediatly upon his death the sword vanished from his inventory, and I cant seem to find it, is there something Im missing or is this some kind of bug?

@Wordmerger

Not the author, and semi-late, but I'm still playing with this mod and Joyeuse spawned in for me. If you go to the 'find characters' tab (should be the default shortcut of . on windows) and you type in the name of the artifact it should bring up the character that has it, or a copy of it - depending on the artifact since it works with all of them not just Joyeuse - hopefully that helps you find it <3

Does the Joyeuse stop spawning in. It was last held by a karling who was the king of germany. He died i figured it wold go to his infant son. But it didnt, so where did the sword go/ how can i get it to spawn back in. I spent the whole campaign with the purpose of completed the decision reforming the charlemagneian empire.But without that artifact im at a lost. Not to sure if your still responding to this thread or not.
