@Luigi_ it is possible i just don't know how to mod the gui tbh so i didn't do it.

idk if this is possible but "light scorched earth" (vanilla style) and "war crimes mode" (this mod) would be cool to have as seperate buttons. i want to absolutely reign hell in bohemia now that im on the 8th coalition with them, so thanks for that, but itd be nice to do some light scorching in minor wars too

@Bruce Wayne is the province occupied and not razed before by you or someone else?
check if it has the recently razed modifer. Also make sure you have no other mod affecting unit abilites

unable to use on enemies. only shows as able to use on my own provinces

UPDATE: fixed bug where antagonsim was applied to the person who got looted instead of the person doing the looting. Now properly applies antagonism

@Bruce Wayne but pay attention to the antagonism as it can stack quite high

@Bruce Wayne okay i didn't make it clear in the description.
you can only use it on the same province after 3 years. any place that has not been razed by someone can be razed again. (Have fun!)

why limit it so only use every 3 years? can you make it checkable so i can raze multiple cities/towns during a war?

@Blue Division i am also not a modder myself i am just experimenting but i can say that they will 100% add mechanics like the ones you mentioned but with the DLCs.

also afaik units already steal food from provinces they occupy.

Yea its a bit strange what they get squeamish about. In regards to changes to the mod, im not a modder myself but i wounder how much you can actually do with this. Is it possible to make it automatic or potentially even use it to resupply your army by taking food from the locals?

@Blue Division EU4 somewhat had that with events but it did not have pops and only had prosperity and development. it's strange that in EU5 i have not seen any events about sacking or razing even thought that was the norm back then.

on the other hand theres a lot of potential for some of the mechanics of this mod like recreating the devastation that happened during the 30 years war or literally any conflict where a city gets sacked. Having an area be completely depopulated because its constantly being fought over would add alot to the immersion of this game.

@Blue Division i have seen a couple mods like that but i guess you are correct it needs to be subtle

not to rain on your parade dude but im pretty sure this is going to get taken down. There's a reason you dont see these kinds of mods in workshop. You should try to be a bit more subtle about it and make it align more with a realistic approach to what could happen if an enemy army takes a city or something along those lines. Just straight up saying you can commit warcrimes is going to just get mod or even potentially your account banned.
