@KK

Oh cool, so far its a really cool mod, although the Lady of the Lake, Merlin & Arthur keep on getting the Incapable trait, it seems to be really common for them, so you mite wanna add section to their unique traits that they cant get the incapable de-buff etc.

Also another Mod called "Legends of Europe" also has a King Arthur section to their mod, but atm is a bit broken, at least in my exp, but I do recommend checking it out!

@FinnFish
I haven't created any events yet, but I'm planning to add them in future updates.

Oh and also I noticed the Holy Grail start. Idk if there's any events attached to that, but I'm not running any other mods aside from the mod itself and TFE.

@KK

Is there supposed to be events for expanding the round table knights and also events for Arthur falling in love with Elanor.

Also giving Arthur Godlike health can still make him die, and doesn't stop him from ageing so by the time its near 200 he looks thinner than his own skeleton XD.
Have you also thought about adding the Quest for the Holy Grail story, and expanding on general events with other unique characters especially the Lady of the lake?

Any chance of getting events to collect the knights of the round table at the earlier start date?

@Daniel Beuthner
Weird... Are the mods in the correct load order? (this mod has to be after The Fallen Eagle)
Do you have any other mods running that could affect the bookmarks screen?

The start date of 510 is not appearing for me. The rest in 532 is working fine.

Wait a minute... Does that mean I can fight the Romans as King Arthur?

@MeffLab
There's no one true canon when it comes to Arthuriana. I replied to someone else about Excalibur earlier, but Maldautomne gave a much more detailed breakdown of the evolution of Excalibur below.

But anyway, thank you!

Pedantic nitpicks aside, awesome mod! Also, if anyone wants more King Arthur in their life, check out the book The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman, it just came out about a year ago and is an amazing take on the Arthur mythos!

Um, Actually Excalibur wasn't the sword in the stone. Excalibur was the sword given to Arthur by the Lady of the Lake and replaced the sword that he pulled from the stone.

The evolution of Morgane in the legend is very interesting too by the way. In the Borman's movie, Morgane, Mordred's mother and Merlin's love interest are merged into one character. In french tradition, they are three distinct characters. Morgane is never as bad as she is in al lot of modern works. Mordred's mother is the second of the three daughters Igerne has with the duke of Cornwall, slained by Uther (the third being Morgane). And Merlin's love interest is Viviane (the reasons why she imprisons him vary upon the authors).

I hope that was interesting for you to read. Sorry for my poor english.

Well done for your work !

- Then comes the XIIIth century's cycle called "Vulgate'' or ''Lancelot Graal' : the legend told from Merlin's conception to Arthur's death. Kind of an earlier version of La Morte d'Arthur. In this very influencial work, THERE ARE TWO SWORDS : the sword in the stone AND Excalibur; given by the lady of the lake - who is not Viviane (or Nemue, as you call her in the english litterature).

@KK I have read your comment about Excalibur. Since I am fond of Arthurian Legend, I can't resist to bring my little piece of knowledge. I am mostly acquainted with the french versions of the legend, which are much less known than the Malory canon. They are nonetheless interesting because they record earlier stages of the legend. So, to sum up :
- In the latin chronicles ''Historia Regum Britanniae" of Geoffroy de Monmouth, the fabulous sword carried by Arthur is called Caliburn.
- When Wace translates the chronicles in old french, Calinurn becomes Escalibor.
- In the Chrtien de Troyes's novels, Escalibor becomes Excalibur.
- Robert de Boron is the one who imagines the famous episode of the sword in the stone (well, in the enclume...). But the sword has no name in his novel.

Thank you for finally making a mod about me! I've been sleeping on Avalon for so many years and I finally got it!

@Starshine
Sorry, but since Malory's version has been so influential when it comes to the current view of Arthurian legend, I am using it as one of the main sources for this mod, and I am not planning to change that. Having Oberon as the son of Morgan le Fay and Julius Caesar would be cool, but it doesn't fit at all into the established timeline.

If you go to pre-Mallory Morgan, you could add in Oberon, Morgan le Fay's son with Julius Ceasar who is King of the Fairies, cos Fallen Eagle setting makes him more relevant than CK2 setting, and also get rid of the lame mallory dark and edgy incest stuff too.

“Well, you have to know these things when you’re a Crusader King, you know?”

ruined it smh

brilliant

'Who are you, so wise in the way of Swallows?'

"How do you know so much about swallows?"

"Huh? I... I don't know that."

"What do you mean? An African or European swallow?"

"What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?"

"To seek the Holy Grail!"

"What is your quest?"

"Arthur, King of the Britons"

"WHAT is your name?"

"Ask me your questions bridgekeeper, I'm not afraid."

Is there a coomand to spawn the sword? Arthur has lost it somehow

Love your mod, by the way! Would it be possible for you to create a version that can be played in the normal campaign? Most other King Arthur-related mods don't allow the Excalibur sword to be equipped as an artifact by the player.

"Dude.... VERY COOL." -Oversimplified

Wondering if you could get permission to use the event chain for the Grail, Excalibur, Knights of the Round Table etc. from the mod Early Bookmarks, which updated and included all the old King Arthur mods. The quests are pretty amazing.

@KK I add it in my discussion

@DarthSamoyed and @The Impractical Engineer
That depends on which version of the story you're going by. The legend of King Arthur was re-told and re-shaped over centuries. In Malory's "Le Morte d'Arthur", while the sword in the stone and the sword given by the Lady of the Lake were two different swords, they were both called Excalibur. The idea that Caliburn specifically refers to the sword in the stone seems to be relatively modern. Originally, it seems like Caliburn and Excalibur were just different transliterations of Welsh Caledfwlch. Caliburn took a more direct route through Latin Caliburnus, while Excalibur took a detour through Old French Escalibor.

To keep things simple, I'm treating them as the same sword.

This is a great add! What do you have in mind going forward? Some events would be amazing for getting the rest of the knights and marrying Gwen (can't spell her full name)

Got me curious where you will take this and I kinda hope to see events for this to play through. At least for some of the major events/recruiting knights of the round table.

exaclibur was from lady in the lake

Holy Grail! That would be an amazing quest chain

Wasn't the sword in the stone caliburn? Excalibur was given by vivian iirc

@Anomander Not yet, but I'm planning to add an event chain for that in a future update.

@無壹 I'm a little confused. That link lists a bunch of different mods, so I'm not quite sure which one is supposed to be the translation for my mod?

But can I quest for the Holy Grail?

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!

Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government!

Would you be willing to do a mod that gives this Excalibur to the Cerenu dynasty in 869 start?

@KK Such a great mod！I want more Chinese player to use it, so I've translated it into Chinese, could you please add a link in description?

Here's my translation: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3090564070
