Was Arumba the guy who was competent and had to spend a few hours revoking every title to fix that ck2 succession game from a few months ago, or was he the one that was really awful? The name sounds familiar, but I can't remember which was which.

I'm surprised those bugs even slipped through testing. I mean no-one at paradox noticed the infinite tournaments? Still there will be a hot fix sooner or later, hopefully sooner.

The name sounds familiar, but I can't remember which was which. He's a really skilled player, I've learnt a lot from watching his videos. There's a reasonable chance he'll be able to come back from the 70k invasion event. His plan is to expand in all directions as fast as he can and abuse the fact that they have to wait out the 5 year truce each time they attack him. If he can expand faster than they invade, perhaps he can wear down their event troops (which don't regenerate when they take losses). Will be interesting to watch.

Quill was the rubbish one probably. Arumba was in that game but neither of those was him; he's really really really good, although he misses a few dumb things but they're not really important unless that kind of thing annoys you (like me  )

So as a Norse, if I convert my culture to Swedish, will I still be able to raid and travel rivers? Is that just dependant on religion?

Yeah, its only religion Which reminds me; can i control the AI tendency to raid based on culture, stats and traits? I would like to enable to enable coastal raiding for muslims, but only if i can tweak so the AI is only actually likely to do it if they have Berber culture. This would reflect reality as much of the western mediterranean coast was basically depopulated as muslim pirates could strike them with impunity until around the 12th century when southern european states got strong enough to defend themselves and strike back. It would make it hell to play as mediterranean states though, especially if i can give the north african coastal counties decent ship building tech at the 867 start.

I added on to a mod Xiroth from the paradox forums released, it should give you an intrigue option to deal with religious unrest, death cults and temple corruption. The group I play with tested it for the past few hours and had no problem. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ew79ral9t9wczr9/cure%20unrest.7z

I was watching an AI game and they managed to reform the Norse religion with a gigantic Scandinavian Empire (England Scotland Norway Denmark Sweden and bits of Pomerania) but the norse culture still shattered into Swedish Danish and Norwegian. But the rulers were still Norse so it is slowly converting back. IT is funny however as half of russia is norse now. More outside of Scandinavia than in it.

Higsian posted:I just started up my first ironman after ROI and I'm not noticing a difference: it feels like 1-2 second save times still. It's quite possibly a pc config specific bug. I'm running on a 5 year old laptop so I'm not just powering through it either. Turns out this is wrong. I thought I was playing ironman but I somehow wasn't, and the small slowdown I was getting was probably just all the background poo poo I had running (I was all set up for Empressive too with a basque-run hispania empire almost made). Playing an actual ironman game got me unplayably long save times like other people were saying, much longer than ironman games before ROI.

So uh, how can I get a marriage out of arranging betrothals now? Is there a bug currently regarding this, or am I just missing something? Since it never used to be this difficult to do - I'm trying to get my sister hooked up with some quick guy matrilineally, and arranged the marriage some years ago, but clicking on the button takes me to his liege, and there's no option for it there, or on either or the betrothed in question. I just want smart family members, is that too much to ask?  EDIT: Oh, and I'm not getting any messages from his liege asking for the marriage to go ahead, either.

Are you at war with the liege? I had a similar thing happen when that was the case for me. Otherwise betrothals are working fine as far as I can tell.

Nope, I've been at peace the whole game. Us being Buddhist and them being Hindu plus a different caste (I believe?) won't have any effect on whether it'll be able to go ahead, right?

Where in the Wiki does it tell you what culture give you what unique troops and which troops are the best? Also, how do I make sure I don't build a poo poo retinue?

Jenner posted:Where in the Wiki does it tell you what culture give you what unique troops and which troops are the best? http://www.ckiiwiki.com/Retinues#Cultural_Retinues I usually stack my retinues with the cultural retinue if it's good or calvary/shock if it's bad. Later on when I get big I start making it half cultural/half skirmish to cut down siege times. Someone probably has the optimal setup, but this works for me.

Horse Archers/Cataphracts/Housecarls are traditionally best, though War Elephants may beat them out now. Avoid defensive light cavalry or light infantry, otherwise, use your cultural retinue or shock retinues.

English and Welsh longbow man are also very strong, and having a lot of them helps speed up sieges as well. Unlike the other "best" retinues, it's not a great idea to have your armies be 100% longbow man.

Scottish Schilltron pikemen are also strong. Have fun hurting them in skirmish and God help you if they enter melee. At least you can escape them in pursue phase easily.

Actually no, that does come up - it's just that whenever a character in my family other than myself is able to marry and gets the "betrothed can marry" notification, I can't actually do anything about it, other than breaking the betrothal.

50 years is too long of a wait before you can put up a new antipope since the last one was deposed. Also, how is it that NPC's seem to have no problem marrying people of the opposite religion, but every time I try it, they just say "must not marry an infidel!". I had an adventurer show up when I was on an early crusade. I ignored it until the crusade was over, when I realized he had 40 thousand troops. I just decided to let him have the duchy. X years later, there was another crusade in Andalusia, and his doomstack won him the highest contribution so he became the ruler of that place. His successor ended up marrying a Yazidi woman, since that heresy had triumphed over Sunni Islam.

In other news, I've found a bug that's crashed the game for me twice - whenever I click on the red skull on my murdered brother's profile(?) - since that takes me to his killer, right? - it just crashes out. It can't be an issue where it's trying to bring up the killer but they're unknown to me or anything, since it was made public and I murdered the lowly mayor who did the deed as retribution, but now whenever I click on the skull it just crashes the game then and there. Has this happened for anyone else? (sorry if this has already been reported)

Just flip has_coa_on_barony_only = yes to no in common/religions And with some other ui fiddling you can use the Muslim coa's. It's not accurate but it looks a big sight better than the Christian ones. Eimi fucked around with this message at 04:43 on Mar 29, 2014 |

If you're super low and taking a big hit while your vassals hate you it could mean a couple of points of opinion lost, but unless you're in dire straights it rarely makes much of a difference. If you're really concerned about it, most of the time the prestige you can get from the wedding counteracts what you would have lost.

I don't even know if this is a bug or not, but it seems like I'm perma-hostile to all of my neighbors. All of their armies show up as red no matter what they are doing. I'm definitely not at war with them. I just converted from Jain to Hindu, but everyone was hostile both before and after that so I don't think it's a religion thing. Also I figured out how to change my caste. You just pay like 700 gold in the intrigue menu. I didn't have the option before I converted from Jain to Hindu, though.

Hmm, can Buddhists change caste, if they drop to the artisan caste? Since both my sons are in the third tier, and I don't want to have to kill them so neither inherits and ruins things in that department..
