Before the great merchant republics of Venice and Genoa, there was Amalfi. In Crusader Kings 2, it is a republic sandwiched between the receding Byzantine Empire to the south and the ambitious Lombard and Italian principalities to the north. This Immersion Pack will hopefully add some flavor if you're planning to rule Amalfi, whether as a Republic or not. I’ve even fixed the history files so you can play Amalfi from the 1066-1076 start dates - however, in these later years, it won’t be as easy a start, as the Republic is in decline, a shadow of its former glory, and it has a difficult starting position.

In this Immersion Pack, travel to the Amalfi Coast, which was considered a perfect resort location, even in Roman times. Take control of the fledgling republic, and defend it against oppressors, be they Byzantines, Saracen pirates, Lombard and Norman warlords, and even your fellow Italian Republics. Figure out ways to increase Amalfi’s strength and prosperity through a whole slew of new decisions and events. Will you rise above your rivals, and see to it that Amalfi remains a vibrant and powerful independent center of trade, emerging as the greatest of the merchant republics?

The Republic DLC is highly recommended - you will be able to access some, but not all of the features without it.



For a full explanation of features, tips and tricks, see the Amalfi Immersion Pack Guide[cybrxkhansmods.godaddysites.com].

• Independent, playable Republic of Amalfi from 1066 to 1076
  
• Enact and reform the Amalfian Laws, one of the oldest maritime codes in the world
  
• Support, tolerate, or ban the usage of Bambagina paper on official documents
  
• As a patrician, choose to focus on different Amalfian industries (represented by modifiers) such as Amalfi’s famous lemon groves
  
• Restore and worship at the Temple of the Sirens in Sorrento/Surrentum as a pagan
  
• Establish the Amalfion, a monastery on Mount Athos famously housed by Latin priests
  
• Build a watchtower on the island of Gallo Lungo and appoint a Warden to protect Amalfi from pirates and invaders
  
• Unique provincial modifier to represent the vacation villas of the Amalfi Coast - even in ancient Roman times, it was a renowned resort region
  
• And other miscellany such as 4 Italian themed soundtracks, 28 new Italian dynasty names related to Amalfi, 24 flavor events about topics ranging from the Blue Grotto of Capri to the famous chestnuts of Scala, and more!

Please note that unlike my other Immersion Packs, I have edited a few vanilla files in order to make Amalfi playable from 1066-1076. Thus, there might be incompatibilities with any mod that edits the following files (they might be able to run together, but one mod will override the other):

• history\titles\b_konstantios.txt
  
• history\titles\b_mauro.txt
  
• history\titles\b_musco.txt
  
• history\titles\b_polkarios.txt
  
• history\titles\b_urso.txt
  
• history\titles\d_amalfi.txt

Cybrxkhan’s Immersion Packs are a collection of small, modular mini-mods designed to add some fun to various, often neglected cultures and regions. These Immersion Packs were loosely inspired by EUIV's, and generally include some flavor events and simple mechanics. While I strive for as much historical authenticity as I can, I will make many compromises as needed to increase flavor and fun.

For those who don’t know me, I was the creator of CPR and VIET, part of the HIP collection of mods, though I no longer work on hat since my retirement a few years ago. Some of stuff here I’ve done for my own personal pleasure over the years after retirement. Consider them a spiritual successor to my VIET Immersion mod, on a smaller scale.

I won’t be making a lot of stuff like I used to; I don’t have time nor energy. Thus, THESE MODS ARE OFFERED AS IS AND I WILL NOT COMBINE THEM INTO ONE MOD. I am only sharing them now as a resource for modders and for those who want a bit of flavor in their games and/or are old VIETerans who miss the good old days. I’ll only go back or add stuff to these packs when I feel like it or if there are bugs.

Please see the PI forum page for more, or the Steam workshop collection to download all of them.

Please feel free to use my mods in your work, all I ask is that I am credited.
