drat, now I want to make a mythology/occult mod with new events and traits like witches, warlocks, druids in celtic areas, vampires in slavic areas, werewolves, djinn, dwarves...

Not that they dominate the game, but every once it awhile a random character will dabble in the black arts and start hexing people. Or some random Wallachian duke will turn out to be a vampire.

Fixed for you.

On culture, how does province culture change over time? My own provinces will occasionally change culture to match mine, but it seems like my vassal's provinces never will. What are the factors that influence changing province culture/how can I get a bunch of newly conquered/wrong-culture land to change quickly?

Give newly conquered provinces to men with 15+ stewardship and you will see much better results. I also think culture flips are more likely if the province is also of a different religion than your own, but not too sure on that.

I always loved that option/result. You can be a fearsome king, ruler of a vast realm, and what do you book for the grand opening of your inn? A wild rear end.

I just wish there were carnivals chain of events in most Catholic countries. I would actually buy an events DLC, specially if there are many of them and it included multi-generational events chains (turns out that the evil ghost who was haunting your family for 3 generations was just that other family who wanted to "avenge" some old feud! And they I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for those meddling gypsy kids and their dog!)

-Witch Hunts? Witch Hunts

-Charlatans selling spooky magic geegaws, which the character may or may not believe it works depending on traits

-Oh no! A Hex! What do? Turn to Jesus/Allah/YVWH? or desperation run to a witch.

That Halloween-monster mod also needs Frankensteins, Trolls, Fairies, and Ghosts (bed sheet type).

EDIT: From September-November you can celebrate Halloween. It's just like a feast, but instead it has event text showing that you dress up like kings, knights, princesses, merchants, and peasants.

Word of warning for anyone who's thinking of trying CK2+ again or for the first time: use the dev build and not the main one. Siege attrition rates are hilariously broken and I ended up going from a 2500 man siege on Nicaea to a non siege-capable force of 750 in the space of a month due to constantly pinging "Raiders hit your camp events."

You have to destroy all their event troops in addition to ridding their holdings (if they get any). If you get to 100% in the initial invasion but they still have some scattered armies and you make peace you're screwed, in my experience.

Man. I'm doing my first Norse game since SoA came out, and it's easy to see why those holy orders keep getting territory for themselves. A crusade happens, and suddenly you're facing multiple 10,000 man stacks containing 2,000 heavy cavalry. Even if you can get equivalent numbers together (no easy task), they punch way above their numbers. It's rough.

No break betrothal under your heir's diplomacy menu?

I had one happen to me today where the original liege died and the new one refused the betrothal but had no problem accepting a marriage under the same terms after I broke it :downs:

I switched from the current release to dev build mid-game and did not have issues. I only played it for about another 20 or so years, however.

Anything to be rid of that awful bug. I hope to god they don't keep it around for the sake of "immersion."

It's not specifically what you're looking for, but if you want to add some more fantasy into CK2 get the mythos mod. :) It's a mod that adds vampires & werewolves.

Apparently I can't even get CK2 to run with all those mods. Not sure if I should go back to the stable ck2+ for this to work. It just crashes at database load.

Edit: Apparently it's cultural titles that don't work.

Roman is treated no differently than any other culture, so you just have to wait for the events that convert the county culture.
