Effects

For an owner who can't benefit from it

The template gives these instead of the effects above when its “can benefit” check fails:

Who can benefit (can_benefit) (3 lines of game script)
unreformed_or_syncretic_with_unreformed_trigger = {
	CHARACTER = root
}

As written in game/common/artifacts/templates (attila_template).

History and who has it

  • Made before recorded history.
  • At game start: the holder of Bavaria (starts from 1064.1.1) — needs The Royal Court.

How it is made

The game creates it with the scripted effect create_artifact_wall_sword_attila_effect. In the console (how to open it), this gives it to the character you play:

effect create_artifact_wall_sword_attila_effect = { OWNER = root }

Built from the effect's file; not run in the game by us.
