Mercenaries may be made a vassal if:

  • You have 2 or more duchy titles.
  • The mercenary is independent.
  • The mercenary either likes you a little (25 rep) or you control their "capital" (i.e. home) province.
  • You have 500 gold and 500 prestige.

The act of vassalization costs the gold and prestige (it is, after all, rather...common, to raise common mercenaries to the nobility!) and grants the selected ducal title, any demesne provinces within it, and any de-jure vassals of it to the mercenary, who then becomes your vassal.

Note that only ducal titles where you directly control one of their de jure counties are eligible for this; though the decision might be visible and takable; it will inform you that you have no eligible titles.

The duchy containing your capital is also not eligible for this.

Hi there! Would you mind providing a copy of your mod for NMIH 0.1.3? I really enjoy it, and would like to use in my campaign for NMIH, if at all possible.

Hi, are there special conditions to see vassalize menu? Because I click open and there are no mercs to vasslize. I saw it only once but I had a war and decided to chceck it later then it was gone. And I should be able to vassilize(prestige, de jure territory, gold is ok).

There are several requirements, namely:
You need to be higher than the merc (generally King or Emp)
You need to have 2 duchies.
You need to be in the right religion groups for the mercenary [generally, if you can hire them, you should qualify for this.]
The mercenary in question needs to be independent

If you satisfy all those requirements, you should be able to see the decision. I will probably eventually re-wicker this mod around the Way of Life targeted decisions and simplify things a bit, but there's no ETA on that.

Added a file for Lux Incita, its awaiting authorization. There's was an oddly named mercenary company that borked my parser, d_ukko's_thunder. So as a semi-temporary thing, I just temporarily omitted that mercenary company.

I updated the file similarly to the way I updated my other mod; dist.zip no longer contains another zip file, so it should be easier to install.
