To The West! 2.0 - Yuan Bo MOVED and redirected in Immortal Empires + Name Change

This mod is intended for those who want to play Yuan Bo in Cathay, where he is supposed to be, but don't wanna have to run around Lustria to complete your campaign.

Yuan Bo's campaign objectives, constructing the Astromantic Relays, have been redirected away from Lustria and refocused to include Cathay and the majority of lands east of the World's Edge Mountains. This brings Yuan Bo's Immortal Empires campaign more in line with the direction of expansion he is supposed to take in Realms of Chaos. In place of the Lustrian positions, the Astromantic Relays have been redistributed to the following locations:

- North: Wei-Jin, northern Cathay

- East: Li Temple, southeastern Cathay

- West: Uzkulak, northern Dark Lands

- South: Nagashizzar, southwestern Dark Lands

Not only have the Astromantic Relays been moved, but the scripted incursions of Lizardmen Raiders have also been moved to positions near the new locations. The final battle near Wei-Jin has not been touched however. Besides these battles, you are free to now become friends with the Lizardmen across the pond once you abandon your initial settlement in Lustria and head back to Shang-Wu.

Update: I have changed Yuan Bo's faction name to The Central Provinces and revised some flavour text to reflect this change (noteably the short selection screen description text in Immortal Empires). This to further the aim of this mod to bring Yuan Bo more in line with the other major Cathayan factions back home.

The time has finally come to unleash this mod's ultimate form. Yuan Bo has been moved completely back to Cathay, with no presence in Lustria when playing him. However, he does not exactly start back in Shang-Wu. The lore remains the same that he is returning home from an expedition in Lustria, represented by him arriving by river to his easternly domains in the Nongchang Basin. In his absence, the Celestial Riverlands have suffered and quaked under a new seditious vampiric threat, one that has reduced the once proud and glorious central capital to a mere shadow of its former self. Under a brusque command from the Dragon Emperor, Yuan Bo must deal with this threat immediately before turning his attention to his ultimate goal: Empowering the Wuxing Compass by expansion westward...

(Note: This change only applies to when you play as Yuan Bo himself. For an AI version, please use Porkenstein's mod)

Enjoy!
