I tried this version as well, but it still crashes. The first savegame I click brings up a completely gray map with the wrong date, and clicking anything else causes the CTD. I don't have any other mods running, and have all the major DLC.

Is there a way to get territories back without going to war? Somehow the county of Ulster ended up part of the Duchy of East Anglia, but the King of England is an ally and my son in law besides, so I'd really rather not fight a war against him, especially given the hit to prestige it gives you for attacking your allies.

Oh were you trying to load a game from vanilla? It's not save-game compatible.

Girl Power hotfixed

Just to be sure, I reinstalled CK2 and poked around in the files a bit more working from a fresh new vanilla.

Remember, according to the latest version, you won't be able to nominate female councillors for positions unless they have the education suited for that position, and you have true cognatic succession. You can only institute True Cognatic Succession if you have Medium crown authority or higher.

Well, not Catholicism, but in my current game Orthodoxy is doing quite well after the Basileus married the Empress of Francia and their son inherited both.

I've seen plenty of West Francia going empire from Old God's start date, usually taking parts of Aquitaine, Burgandy, Italy, and Lotharingia with it. In my most recent game, an independent Aquitaine lost a Shia invasion because a Karling clusterfuck war prevented them from calling in allies to help.

As far as the magyars are concerned, I've seen them reform the kingdom of Hungary within weeks of ingame time, and end up with holdings in Germany and Turkestan by the mid 900's. I've seen them lose the first war to Bulgaria and get wiped off the map, but I've never seen them do anything in between.

I almost never see Orthodoxy do well in most CK2 games, especially post-1066 ones. If the Byzantines suffer at all, soon enough all Orthodox lands convulse in waves upon waves of heresy and weak authority until the Mongols arrive and clobber everyone.

ROME DID NOT HAVE ROBOTS, FUCKWIT
Reveilled, I have my changes here, if you want the generalized missionaries.

I also made a couple of other adjustments in there:

quote:

General
-Can disable and re-enable the taking of captives when a settlement is captured via a decision in the intrigue menu.
-Zeroed out the title usurpation cooldown - now that you need 51% to usurp, a cooldown is no longer necessary
-Increased max leadership traits (the combat ones) from 2 to 4
-Increased inherit chance of most positive heritable traits to 33%, 25% for negative


Religion(ish)
-Any reformed religion can attempt to send missionaries to any independent ruler in an attempt at conversion.
-Norse pagans, both reformed and otherwise, continue to be able to raise runestones after 1150. Those who have access to it merely by being north germanic lose it after that year, as normal.
-When a Zoroastrian character is declared the Saoshyant, all their existing children will be given the appropriate trait.
-saoshyant_descendant changed to be a 100% heritable trait, instead of only being passed on from fathers
-West African pagans get the 'pagan homelands' bonus that they are described as having.

Looting changes
-Loot amounts are halved (as is the amount of loot that forts protect)
-Looting takes twice as long
-Loot regrows only 40% as quickly (that is, takes 2.5 times as long to recover to full)
-Maximum looting rate requires 1000 troops instead of 500
-Prestige gain from looting halved (i.e., you get half as much prestige as you get money)

War
-Warscore from battles increased 33%
-Warscore from captured vassal territory increased 33%
-Warscore from captured private demesne increased 66%
-'Pagan homelands' supply limit effect doubled, from 5% of normal to 10%
-Adventurers will not plan a war for their claim against someone they like better than 60.
-Adventurers cannot gather troops to attack you from inside your own court
-Adventurers cannot gather troops to attack you from inside your realm unless their host dislikes you (opinion < 0)


Gender
-Cognatic succession available to everyone, if succession is already ag-cog. Basques will actually switch to it.
-Female rulers can hold epic tournaments, organize Varangian guard
-'Female liege' and 'female heir' opinion penalties halved.
-Independent female rulers can always lead armies
-Otherwise, female marshals, stewards, chancellors, and spymasters are allowed in true cognatic realms.
-Events for young childhood will now be directed to the child's mother, not the father, if the mother is controlled by the player. Some of these may still have localization referring to the father, though.
-Noteworthy women (genius, quick, strong, or some top-level educations) qualify to adventure for a title

Sadly not. The Aztecs took over a Muslim Nation that held a lot of land in Europe. I called a Grand Crusade and took the Aztecs land while they were revolt whacking. I'd would've loved to fight one of their 80k stacks but I couldn't find it. The AI doesn't have the priorities.

Fun fact; the victory screen took a full 2-3 minutes to process.

I had something similar where I joined the Holy War vs the Aztecs and just got all of France. I thought I'd be there for hours assigning counties to kinsmen and couriers, but I ended up just creating a bunch of duchies, and handing them over (counties, baronies and all) to whoever. I don't know if that's bad but I don't give a gently caress anymore because I'm Emperor of Britannia and I have bigger things to worry about.

Like my 1 year old daughter dying of Syphilis. What? Was that ever a thing?

We won both wars and from there he went psycho on the rest of sweden, maybe because of the berserker trait, and is now the king of a 99% united sweden. My husband conquered sweden for me, what a catch!

No, you aren't allowed to plot against your own children. You have to diploassassinate them(which has a low chance of success and costs assloads of money) or imprison and then execute them(which makes all your other vassals hate you and gives you Kinslayer).

Alternatively if you're a Christian you can just make them a bishop which basically removes them from succession. Downside being that you can't do it to your firstborn so if your number 1 son is a hunchback retard and number 2 is a tall genius you'll have to have the first one murdered.

Not Muslim, but my first wife was a 'safe' nobody and I want her kids out of the way so my second wife's (Queen Skuld I of Scotland's) kids can inherit two kingdoms.

^Ah, okay. So I have two sons and three daughters ahead of the lucky lotto winner baby girl. If I take out the two sons with diplosassins and ship off the unlucky daughters in normal marriages, then the target daughter will inherit once she is married matrilinealy, right?

The game was a 1091 start, so Norway was already Christianized and the Ynglings were all Catholics.

Amusingly, I checked out England and found out it's ruled by the FitzRichard dynasty, founded by Richard 'the Bastard' and illegitimate grandson of William the Bastard. I'm hoping that future English ruling dynasties have similar origins, leading to a period of English history that could be called "Bastardized England".

And then I get this note from my sister in law, the Queen of Castille. "Please help us against the Sultanate." ... huh. Okay, sure, Ive got 70,000 troops in France, I get on the boats and do a landing. And I see two stacks of 20-30k. Okay, I can handle that. I make doom stacks and stomp them both. I spread out my teams in groups of 5k to each province in southern Spain, and I see some more doomstacks forming. My guys are scattered, and the heat is killing my doomstacks, and suddenly I'm down 30,000 men. I think I lost another 20,000 in the retreat to the boats, the Hammadids can have the place.

In one of my games, one of the most powerful Byzantine dukes is the head of a merchant republic. How this hasn't led to their destruction, usurpation of Byzantium, or massive civil wars, I have no idea, but I do know they love to start poo poo with the Italian republics, and I exploit this by crushing the lot of them every once in a while when they get distracted.

I've made a real breakthrough in events and laws modding!

I've figured out a way so that characters in realms running elective can be made to abdicate in favor of their successor. When a character takes to the throne, the game sets a kind of countdown timer that ticks after a set number of years. When it ticks down, the character receives an event where they abdicate to the next successor. Also, I've created a series of custom crown laws that allow the ruler to change the term limits of their rule, from four years to a maximum of life-appointments.

I still need to do testing on this to make sure it works nicely, but look forward to seeing it implemented in the next iteration of Sonendar!

No, it has them. You need to have 1000+ prestige and still the 40 holdings limit (or something, I didn't look at the exact prereqs and just clicked it when I saw it available). It's a diplomatic option, not a CB.
