Although there were arguments that they should have one or another, we think it is a fair change if the merchant republic has access to both systems.

When completed, Lübeck will get an event where they are either forced to grant temporary privileges to their trade league members, which make them basically useless for Lübeck, or let them choose if they want to stick with Lübeck or want to join Riga’s Trade League. The mission “Break the Hansa” can be completed by improving the opinion of all members of Lübeck’s trade league.It also unlocks a new casus belli against all heretic countries, with the only goal is to force convert them to your faith - you can NOT conquer any provinces with this cb though.

This is the first experiment of a peace option which forces the losing country to destroy a building in one of their provinces.
