I seem to be getting an awful lot of rebellions these days. I've had like 5 Old Norse uprisings in the 20 or so years since reformation and recently I had a Dutch Catholic rebellion which almost won despite having a lot fewer soldiers than. I only control like 2 counties of Holland so I don't know they went after me instead of the Scots or the French. e: I´ve also been getting raided by a couple of Old Norse dudes who are my indirect vassals. I'm pretty sure that isn't supposed to happen. FreudianSlippers fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Jun 10, 2013 |

DrPop posted:Goddamn people live way too long in vanilla CK2. As fun as it is playing a superdude into his 80s, it can really play hell with succession. I just had a Viking Berserker God Emperor reign from age 6 to 91 and finally died in battle near the White Cliffs of Dover, after cleaving through innumerable Aztecs and cutting down their general. He outlived two wives, countless concubines, his three eldest children, his brothers and sisters, and most of his neices and nephews, and as far as I know was the last living person born in the 1100's at the time of his death. Under his reign Denmark went from a small Norse kingdom being ridden down by Catholic Norway to encompassing all of Scandinavia, Holland, most of Germany, and all of the British Isles.

Is the opinion penalty for having a heir educated by someone of another culture new? I've never noticied it before.

Did something go wrong?

Wow, my kingdom is purring like a kitten now that I'm paying attention to Duchal title sharing and breaks between wars. Found an odd thing though. I'm running absolute cognatic primogeniture, but Ireland is going to my older daughter, and Scotland is going to my younger son. Any idea what's causing it?

Yeah, uprisings are really frequent - but it seems like the frequency and size of the problem is related to religious differences in your counties. Ever since I started using my seer to target clusters of heretic counties, rebellions have been much fewer and smaller in size. Most of the trouble is on the front lines of the ongoing conquest into europe and my retinues live there anyway so rebellions are put down rapidly. Also, the beta patch reduces rebellion frequency so if you're not running it you should give it a go.

Kalos posted:Out of curiosity, is there a mod that makes the big fuckoff empires a little less stable in computer control? Sure they have their succession crises and civil wars, but I've never seen a large state really balkanize or get any sort of independence movement off the ground without player intervention. The only time I see significant changes in borders is when two massive states breed with each other enough that some lucky sap inherits both France and the HRE or something equally horrifying. On that note... CK2+ 2.00 Beta for Old Gods is out.

And I hate the color change for Orthodox religion.

I started playing this again after Old Kinds game out and I'm having a bit of an odd issue with my succession. I'm playing as the King of Scotland and after a few years I've picked up the Kingdom of Ireland. Both Kingdoms were under Tanistry succession, but I switched both to Seniority to make it easier to keep the two titles unified until I can create the Britannia Empire. The weird thing is, when my current ruler dies, my vassals do not pass to my heir and instead they are granted independence, which didn't happen under Tanistry succession. Am I missing something?

DrSunshine posted:What happens when someone in the Warhammer universe plays Warhammer? Do they call it Battlemace instead? It ain't Warhammer. They're playing a equivalent to a World War 2 game or some such. Or to take it another way: the event needs re-writing, because such 'training' and 'game wars' would be important to think about a real war.

If anyone looking some of the DLC, the GameStop webstore has a lot of them on sale at the minute for £0.64-£1.60 each. Not Old Gods though. Crusader Kings II is on sale there today too for £12, just noticed, so if anyone knows someone who was looking to pick it up...  They all appear to be redeemable steam codes once you copy the code out of the Gamestop App and paste it into Steam, at least the ones I picked up were. Edit: Does that Girl Power mod above work with the CKII+ 1.10 Beta? Tindahbawx fucked around with this message at 14:39 on Jun 10, 2013 |

I just realized that I've had this game since it came out and I still have never once played long enough to form an empire. I have such a bad habit of restarting new games over and over and over.

Is there a mod that introduces a "fear" mechanic? Say I wanted to play a mad king with a penchant for lopping off the heads of anyone under me who displeases me, e.g., at the Banquet event and he loudly complains about my food. That means he's going to be lined up for a date with the headsmans block in the future. Problem being that if you keep doing this everyone gets mad at you. So like is there a mod that switches the negative modifier after so many beheddings, to a "positive" one as your vassals are too drat scared for their lives to rebel...and at which point you need to keep doing a fair few beheadings each year in order to keep your vassals in line. Say by giving the "fear" mechanic a lesser effect over time (like the way levies work in regards to opinion) and if you don't keep an eye on it you vassals stop being afraid of you, think you've gone weak, and seek to overthrow you? It would make for an interesting game, as you could have anyone outside your kingdom unnaffected by the fear mechanic, meaning that with you having to keep up with the beheadings, you're going possibly run out of targets, and your fear rating drops. Of course you can just invite random foreigners to your court to feed the axeman if you're a psychopath, give it a heafty negative modifier if you do this sort of action. There probably isn't, it would just make for an amusing game is there was. Tindahbawx fucked around with this message at 14:49 on Jun 10, 2013 |

It appears not to work with v1.101, for the record. CTD on trying to start a new game. Maybe that's obvious but just in case someone didn't know  rolled back to 1.10 and it's fine.

In vanilla, reformed pagan are undeniably the best religion in the game though. I'm also not sure I'd agree that a lack of "levies raised too long" penalties is such an awesome feature it makes up for perma gravelkind - especially when the beta patch removes your ability to use seers to prevent sons from inheriting. I can't imagine ever wanting to continue as unreformed pagan given the option.

You have to change the laws for every additional kingdom you own. Just go into the "Laws" tab and click on the flag of the Kingdom. This has caused some nervous hand-wringing for me before, when I managed to take control of England as Norway, or Ireland. I'd already made my Kingdom Agnatic-Cognatic Elective, but England was on Agnatic Primogeniture, so the realm was about to split up on succession.

So, I had a courtier with a claim on a duchy and married her to one of my sons. I successfully pressed her claim in a war a year later, but my stupid son won't leave my court to go be with his wife and get to making babies. Am I screwed or will couples still make babies despite being in separate courts?
