Trench Crusader Kings (v0.1)

Description
This is a heavily work-in-progress mod with the aim of allowing players to experience the beginnings of the 800 year Trench Crusade. The majority of the mod's content is sourced from the publicly available Trench Crusade rules and artwork, created by Tuomas Pirinen, Mike Franchina, and Factory Fortress Inc., with my own writing added to recontextualize the content for CK3.

v0.1 Features:
- The Act of Ultimate Heresy event which triggers after a Catholic takes Jerusalem, resulting in the destruction of Jerusalem and the death of everyone in the kingdom (all de jure rulers and courtiers/guests)
- New Heretic faith that emerges in the Levant after the Ultimate Heresy
- Custom Hell Knights and Pit Locusts MAA recruitable to Heretic rulers

Future Plans:
- Pre-Crusade event that creates the Knights Templar early so as to properly simulate Trench Crusade history
- Invasion events for Cobar the Betrayer, First Tyrant of the Sixty-Six
- Formable New Orthodox Syncretic faith that gives Faithful rulers access to holy MAA like the Crusader Knights
- Repeated sacrifice events that act as alternative Heretic MAA upkeep (instead of gold/provisions, you'll have to sacrifice prisoners/courtiers to satiate your demonic overlords)

THIS MOD IS HEAVILY WORK-IN-PROGRESS AND IS LARGELY UNTESTED!!!
I don't have a lot of free time and I'm also a pretty amateur mod creator, so progress is slow but steady! The Heresy event is functional enough for some fun 867 or 1066 shenanigans, but has been untested in 1178 as I intend to eventually create a custom War for Creation bookmark in 1178. Play at your own risk!

Perhaps you could create a project team to advance this project; I'd want to join in its production.

Suggestion, do some way to form the Kingdom of Jerusalem, because it can only be formed if it is Catholic. It would be cool if it were behind a decision or something like that, and something that happens is that they change their color and name, they could make any name they paste become hell + name, and keep the color black. bth very good mod, keep the good job

Cannot believe I never considered the idea of Trench Crusade in CK3 till now, literally the perfect game for it to be placed into

This seems super cool man - if you're ever looking for writers I'd love to take part.

@topher yeah that would also be a great implementation

Although raiding wouldn't be too hard to implement, using the low stakes casus belli would also work

in fact a mix of both could work really well too?

At the end of the day both implementations would work at increasing ai hostiliy & agression without the constant/massive swap of titles, which would simulate the feel of the actual table top game

Overall I'm very excited to see what you do with this mod :D
