# Balance
###################
- AI's will now leave factions more quickly when they are pleased with you as their liege
- AI's will no longer press factions for Claimants they like if they also like their current liege a lot, with a decreasing chance at higher opinions (the AI will be less likely to press a claimant they have 80 opinion of if they have 60 opinion of their liege, for example)
- The AI now considers Faith Hostility when selecting claimants
- AI vassals are now more likely to offer a gift when paying homage
- Added a Game Rule (Empire Obscurity) that makes empires that control below 20% of their De Jure counties be destroyed. This should solve empires sticking around forever as micro-realms.

- Corrected the modifiers of the Cup of Jamshid
- Forcing same vote by using a hook on an elector will now last 100 years instead of 5

- Strategy Lifestyle bonus to Skirmishers has been moved to the Hit and Run Perk
- The AI now has a 5 year cooldown towards asking to educate the players children if the player refuses
- The AI will no longer demand artifacts from players they like a lot, and will no longer keep asking after you've refused once

- Sacred Childbirth now grants piety each time a child is born and considers Pregnant a virtuous trait
- Rebalanced artifact gift opinion gain
- Tribal Kings and Emperors can now access the Royal Court, but it plays differently:
- The 'Expected Grandeur' is always the same as their current Grandeur level. It cannot be above or below.
- All Amenity Levels except the first two are blocked if playing Tribal
- Amenity Costs are greatly increased if tribal (it was trivially cheap)
- They only have access to one Court Type: Tribal. This one can be kept if feudalizing, but it doesn't give many benefits, and the AI will switch out of it fairly quickly.
- All Tutorials and Game Concepts now mention Tribals and the differences they have
- Several events that were ill-fitting for tribals will not appear for them (i.e. founding new City holdings)

# AI
###################
- A unit stack wanting to resupply will spread out its subunit stacks into neighboring provinces even though said provinces might not allow resupplying, in order to try and avoid attrition.

- Added missing check for if a unit is moving or not when calculating troop strength for supply.

- If the main subunit stack is already moving, then don't deny being available for order because some units are still technically sieging.
- Desperate AI will be more bold when selecting targets near enemy units, or when engaging enemy units.
- Ignore non-castle provinces when giving extra score to province targets near the war goal area.
- In Great Holy Wars the AI will be more focused on fighting about the war goal and less likely to shy away from confrontation due to numerical weakness.
- Instructed the AI to adjust its court amenity spending in a more responsive manner
- AI will no longer go to war for artifacts that are below masterwork, cursed or that it cannot use (like toys).
