Great holy war weights
Great Holy Wars have a multiplier for AI targeting of
- 100 for a key religious holding (Jerusalem for Catholics and Jews, Mecca and Medina for Muslims),
- 75 for the kingdom where someone who made a Human Sacrifice of the Head of Faith came from,
- 50 for kingdoms with a holy site,
- 40 for kingdoms in heartland regions,
- 30 for frontier regions,
- 20 for fringe regions, and
- 10 for stretch goal regions.
Note this means all other kingdoms would have a multiplier of 1. If the Head of Faith is landed, this is divided by the distance from the Head of Faith. If not, it is divided by the distance from the primary religious site (i.e., Rome). There is also a multiplier of 20 if someone of the same faith holds the kingdom title, but does not possess enough of the kingdom. Great Holy War Weights can be found in game\common\script_values\02_religion_values.txt. Great Holy War regions are unique and can be found in game\map_data\geographical_region.txt.
