In my new mod, i wanted more than the 8 Viking ones. So i decided to use the normal startpos as a base. But i have a problem with the pope. I want to either to remove him from the mod all together or to get rid of his excom and re-appearence tricks. I came up with two plans:

1) Change his behaviour from pope

- does not work. he just acts different.

2) delete everything to do with the pope

- seems like the information is programmed into faction 18

So i think i've got to some how make the computer relize that the faction 18 exists but doesnt put him in the game or make him re-appear

Has any one got any plans?

cheers
