So I found something useful for once.

I would think it's the other way around: Bactrians, Parthians etc rebell against Seleukid rule thus they fight until the last Rebel City/FM whereas the Successors would be united if all cities/FMs yield to one Faction leader. if all Ptolemaoi FMs/Cities find the AS Faction leader more suited than the own and would not value loyality too much they would probably join the cause of the AS.

Pan Hellenic League :D that's exactly what I'm playing in my KH campaign tho it is a bit annoying to FD Macedonia and Epeiros over and over again after they backstabbed me and I took them one provine and a lot of soldiers. and it would be cool if Hellenic cities would join my cause if under severde destress and not afterwords :/ - Syracus down to 5 men garrison (on huge) does not want to be bribed by me :(((((

So with no heirs, they could join your faction as well :)

Yup



I was actually a bit wrong on that, if you meant true, born as baby, children. If he hasn't got children who haven't come of age yet coded for him in descr_strat, and faction expands so game starts wanting to give it more generals, he's likely to end up with adopted generals filling the slots, especially if its an AI controlled faction.


the other thing to look at would be to use an ancillary derived from the inherited traits, which is passed to real son and heirs.... you can quite easily code monitors to use

and not FactionwideAncillaryExists Im_a_heir_anc true

checking for faction not having a trait is messier as there isn't a FactionwideTraitExists command, though you could probably get round it with counters

Yeah, given the true nature about Koinon Hellenon, I predict they will present them with league membership if some of the Hellenic factions are down. Quite realistic if the condition wasn't the elimination of their leader, but giving a big sums of money and in the announcement box, it will be written as "commitment to join the cause, and rebuild the ruins of war"...

Maybe KH could absorb Makedonia, Syrakousai, Pergamon, and Epeiros to made their Pan Hellenic league bigger....

According to the scripting codes, yes... this was one way reunification, so we couldn't hope the EB team will include them on their official relases, but maybe some of us will made simple submod for KH about it (because unification is largely pointless if you have much unit difference and untrainable units, they will be disbanded and leave you with several empty cities, so the EDB and EDU must be altered significantly - giving KH all the unit that Epeiros, Makedon, Syrakousai, and Pergamon has, as well as their training grounds)

Now about the celts, it will be simpler if the condition are Marriage alliance (has seen it proposed on some Kingdom's mod that still on progress), means if an Aedui Princess can marry Avernii Faction leader / heir, and that guy die childless.... Another faction will become theirs... Well, emulating the old MTW mechanics eh? Well, women are always men's biggest weakness.....
