DStecks posted:I just took the King of Abyssinia on a pilgrimmage to Jerusalem, and got an event giving me the trait "Sympathy for Muslims" (I could have also picked Sympathy for Jews). What does this do, since the tooltip is just flavour? It makes you get along better with Muslims; think it reduces the normal penalty to -5. There are similar ones for all the religions. Converted Norse kings seem particularly likely to pick up "Sympathy for Pagans." It also might lower your conversion chances?

All of my DLC has stopped showing up in game. It's all there and checked in the launcher window, but is all disabled once I actually start it up. Google suggested that I verify the cache in Steam, which I did twice to no effect. I had this happen once before, I just don't remember how I fixed it. This is on a Mac, if that makes a difference.

I think that converting will also often give you sympathy to your old religion. In my Zoroastrian game I demand a lot of my courtiers/vassals who are Muslim or Jewish convert and most (but not all) of the time they get the Sympathy for Islam or Sympathy for Judaism traits.

Doesnt having retinues reduce the manpower you get from your personal holdings or something? I could swear there was a drawback on the number of men you got from another source for having retinue.

As far as I know, (a) it wasn't retinues per se that reduced levies, but Military Organization tech, and (b) since the tech revamp in TOG, this hasn't been the case.

So it turns out I had the army one space too far down which made it stop working till I moved it to where it was apparently meant to go. Do the tutorials just stop working if even the slightest thing changes? Oh well, least they're informative. And now it wants me to disembark my troops but isn't doing anything when I try to follow the instructions. Is this going to be a normal thing?

Is there any way I can control who becomes the Partriach for the Byzantines? I've had a string of crappy ones that hurt my moral authority, and I just got all 5 Pentarchs, so I would like to mend the schism ASAP. e: Looked at the patch notes for 2.0.2 beta again, and I saw something about being able to give out theocracy titles. I haven't been able to give bishopric titles to anyone, so maybe if I use this patch it will let me at least appoint a bishop who could become Patriarch? If that's not the case, can someone explain what this means quote:- Waived the non-neighboring rule for theocracy title grants, but made it moddable Baxate fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Dec 12, 2013 |

Average Bear posted:Any reason I shouldn't tax and levy my cities to oblivion as a monarch? It's not like they have enough power to rebel on their own, being barony level.

Anyone know if the Gallowglass training grounds were bugged? I swear I built the same one in the same county at least four times

hellsjudge posted:I tried this with my Jewish head and it looks like you can grant counties or temples, but not a dukedom since the title is a duchy Since I just took Rome, I still have that bishopric I could give to someone, so if I don't have any control over the who becomes Patriarch I could just give it to the current Patriarch. I could probably get an extra 20% moral authority if I give him direct control of all the Orthodox holy sites. I'd have to revoke the titles for most of them though (and probably retract vassalage from my dukes), so I'm not so sure about it.

I thought you meant the first post, which is pretty standard video game sperg but kind of funny if that's your thing. But oh god, the replies quote:The Jews shouldn't be in the game in the first place, be happy that developers made this happen because of extensive Jewish lobbying from the US and Israel. quote:The question is, why do people keep starting new threads/whining and almost insinuating Paradox has something against Jews? Jews got way more attention in CK2 than they deserve, in my opinion. Face it, outside of loaning money (Pope banned Christians from practicing "usury") what did Jews really do in CK2 timeframe (I know the Khazars were "Jews")? The answer to this question is because seven centuries of Spanish history was shaped, in large part, by ethnic and class-based pogroms. The consequences of purging Muslims, Jews, and rebellious peasants of all sorts reached all the way to the goddamned Spanish Civil War in the 20th century. It's kind of a big deal. quote:Replace the Jew is Aztec. quote:They definitely need an 'Establish the Murdochracy' event chain

The Moon Monster posted:Is there a tutorial on retinues somewhere? I've been playing this game for awhile while being completely oblivious to them apparently. Is your cultural retinue mostly light cavalry with a defense bonus or light infantry? If yes, make Shock retinues. If no, make your cultural retinue exclusively. Always max out your retinue as soon as possible - the AI will include your retinue size in its comparison for strength.

Disco Infiva posted:To be fair, you probably won't even get to melee phase. That skirmish phase with +60% bows are devastating to all but mongols and cataphracts. Cataphracts are the strongest as they have no weakness, but for me skirmish are most cost effective. Skirmishers are ridiculous effective, especially in the early game. And since I can pump out more of them than any other basic retinue, they also help me build up an army capable of assaulting castles. I'm in Lancaster right now, I'm thinking about switching over the Welsh culture so I can get that sweet sweet longbow retinue. Caufman fucked around with this message at 14:00 on Dec 12, 2013 |

That's what the "Grant lower titles" checkmark is for.  Just click it and you can just hand out the whole thing -- county and all -- to someone and let them handle the rest. It'll also make them really happy!

I'm trying to set up theocracies though and it's actually working, gonna make some Jewish theocracies aww yeah Also I REALLY wanted to make my Republic vassal a Kingdom, and I kept thinking about how to do it, and then I thought of this: will the AI make the kingdom title if it is available? I figured out how to get around the limit of counties I can give him by just destroying the rest of the duchies in Ireland and transferring vassalage of the counties to my doge vassal so he can have control of at least 51% of Ireland. I'm thinking in my next game I'll give them the cities of places I conquer so they always have a CB to war for the county (even better if they're Jews though, my republic vassal waged at least 10 holy wars and won a lot of land throughout my whole game) hellsjudge fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Dec 12, 2013 |

Mailer posted:Vassal levies have a large blanket nerf to what they provide. Also, you get less for each tier (count/duke/king/emperor) lower than your primary title. Also also, anything outside your de jure territory provides virtually nothing. Destroying titles angers people within the de jure realm that title covers. Missed this, sorry. I'm not sure what you mean with the second sentence. Do vassal kings now provide more troops than dukes? And I suppose the question with de jure kingdoms/empires is where your capital is? So as Scandinavia/Britannia for example I could gain significantly more levies by moving my capital to England from Denmark? I know about the one time hit, yet given the severe penalties for holding electoral titles under elective and the annoying "desires duchy" penalty this seems like a very minor thing.
