Dynamic Regency

Updated for 1.13.*.*


This mod dynamically changes the power of a regent based on both parties' military strength, title rank, relations, claims, etc.
providing more ways to tip the balance of power to both regents and lieges.

By making the struggle between liege and regent depend on more than just a few buttons, you now have more options to take power away from your regent/liege.

It's now possible to advance your position in a diarchy by:

-Improving your/your liege's vassals' opinions of you
-Gaining a higher tier title
-Making new alliances
-Increasing prestige/piety levels
-Changing crown authority
-Ending or Starting friendships/romantic relationships/marriages
-Dismissing the regent from the council / Getting a council position as a regent
-Getting yourself out of prison
-Manipulating the line of succession of your/your liege's primary title
-Increasing military strength
-Hiring mercenaries
-etc.

However, keep in mind that these tricks also work for your regent.



A Regency/Vizierate's Scale of Power no longer starts from 0. Now, the "Initial Swing" will be added to the Scale of Power at the beginning of a regency.

As time passes, the relative power of regent and liege will undoubtedly change. To reflect this, the once static "Balance Swing" now adjusts in real time.

Both "Initial Swing" and "Balance Swing" can be influenced by various other mechanics like those mentioned in the first section.



Instead of approaching the "Balance Swing" at a constant rate like in vanilla, the monthly swing change is affected by the distance to "Balance Swing" and "Swing Momentum".

The farther away the current swing is from the "Balance Swing", the faster the monthly swing approaches this balance point.

"Swing Momentum", which also modifies the monthly swing, is derived from changes in the two parties' relative power since the start of the regency.

So, it could be handy to have some cards up your sleeve (e.g., gold for mercenaries, decision to create a higher-tier title, option to increase crown authority), so that you can accelerate/hinder the monthly swing change in case you find yourself in a pickle during a regency.




It doesn't make much sense that the slate is wiped clean the moment their liege's direct rule is resumed.

Regents can now cling to their power beyond the end of their appointment in the form of "Residual Swing". Even though this remnant of authority fades over time, it makes those regents who serve consecutively much more dangerous.

Characters with high learning will also be able to gain extensive experience as regents, which permanently increases their "Balance Swing".



For those who also use SRE, levels in the "Popularity Among Peers" trait track could further boost your "Balance Swing".

XP for the "Popularity Among Peers" track can be gained by becoming friends/lovers with your fellow vassals or your liege's peers (Vassals under the same top liege).



The system applies to all three types of diarchy in vanilla (Regency, Entrenched Regency, and Vizierate).

In Entrenched Regency and Vizierate, it is harder for the diarch to accrue power due to the nature of the power-sharing arrangement.

For Viziers, the competence of their liege's civil service led by them (average aptitude of tax collectors) also contributes towards their power as regent.

A player could choose to appoint talented tax collectors to gain bonuses from the vizier faster and replace some of them with less competent ones to prevent the vizier's power from getting out of hand.
