Hey Org...my last question after firing up M2 for the first time in a long while:

I have edited my preference.cfg file to unlock all factions in the grand campaign. I can now choose from 17 total factions when I load up a campaign.

Is this accurate? 17 is the maximum amount of playable factions when they're all unlocked?

thanks

The Papal States work perfectly normal when I play as them and all I did was the usual moving them under playable.

The Papal States have some awesome unique units, although it just doesn't feel right when playing as them, it feels exactly like taking control of SPQR in Rome, plus you don't get to send missions.

Yeah your right there, the SPQR and the Papacy don't feel complete. I tried playing as the Mongols to see what would happen and it started on the HRE's turn and stayed there.:no:

I heard it's possible to install a script where an adviser would appear and if you clicked on the show me how button it would give your faction to the AI and let the AI take turns until for example the Mongols emerge and then it would let you play them, anyone know how to do that?

You can start a HotSeat game and then give your faction to the AI and take control over Mongols or Timurids but it would take a LONG time before they arrive!

How about a mod?

I'm sure FactionHeir has your answer to that. :yes:
