DStecks posted:I'm almost positive that nothing can affect succession laws like they'd need to for this to work. It's really easy actually, the all gavelkind mod I posted a month or so back does just that. You are correct in that removing an existing succession law is tricky. You basically mark it as invalid, use the command to remove it from the list entirely, and then after succession is recalculated (a couple times a year usually), it'll get removed. Sometimes it requires an actual succession to happen. In the end, for the allgavel mod I decided it was easier to just have the game start with all succession types disabled, and then make enabling them a 1-time option. Disabling of succession types is just too flaky.

Shadeoses posted:Are you making every province roughly the same size? I don't know much about America, but I assume places like the Midwest and other noted wastelands would be much less developed or inhabited, like how Scandinavia, Arabia and the steppe are generally bigger. I've been barely increasing provinces as I've been heading westwards so far, but mostly it's just been holding sizes that've been declining so far. I suppose that provinces ought to be bigger once on the Great Plains proper, and then the Rockies are going to be a hell of a mess. Munin posted:How many provinces are you going to end up with btw? How is that going to stack up with Vanilla. Rumda posted:Are you going to make the misisipppi a regular sea zone so republics can pop up on the banks and allow transit to the interior or just a river.

Ofaloaf posted:I really don't know, still. All religions have been set to be able to traverse rivers already, but I fear that if the Lower Mississippi was made into proper sea zones then things could get finicky and weird real fast. Just make them sea zones, and put straits in between the sides. It should probably be sea zones up to St. Louis or so, so you can have a St. Louis Merchant Republic. edit: You could even have the Missouri be a few sea zones over to KC, so you can then have a competing Merchant Republic there too. binge crotching fucked around with this message at 14:21 on May 16, 2014 |

Ofaloaf posted:Thus far there's 346 counties in-game, as of the map posted above. Covering the rest of the land east of the Mississippi, including Canada, might add, I dunno, no more than a hundred there? The Pacific coastline proper ought to be pretty detailed and then rapidly get larger provinces the further inland it goes, so the US and Canada all told might end up being... what, 700-900 provinces? Then account for Mexico, which'll probably have the most detail along some stretches of the coast as well as around Mexico City proper, and then the rest of the Caribbean. 1200-1400 provinces all told? Just making a wild guess here. So about 400 more than the pre-Rajas map then. I don't know the Rajas province count but I think it is likely in the 1200-1400 ballpark as well.

There are 1,210 files in history/provinces/, and they all have a max_settlements line, so I'm guessing that's the number of non-wasteland land provinces. Oh, and there're 5,086 holding slots spread around those provinces. I wouldn't push too far beyond either of those figures, because Rajas is already slow as poo poo.

Can we please get a prisoner torture DLC please? I have 78 prisoners and haven't had a single event to rack or oubliette them and some of them have been in prison for over 50 years (since they were infants  ).Speaking of which in my most recent game as the Emperor of Carpathia I had a prisoner that was 46, had been in prison since 2, she hates me. So I took her as my concubine and got the 'abductor' modifier and proceeded to have her family imprisoned and executed. God it feels good to be Emperor!

Then he went to her room and gave her a tumble and they fell in love, while she was still in the dungeons. This actually kind of disturbed me, though of course not enough to not watch it happen with morbid curiosity. ... then I forgot all about this and when I loaded the game the next time I went through my list of prisoners and executed a bunch of the unimportant ones because they were taking up too much space. My Doge accidentally executed his own prison lover/victim. This game makes monsters of us all.

Is there something I'm missing from Norse Holy Wars? I'm Norway, Leader of the Reformed Norse faith, and I called a holy war for the Kingdom of Sweden. I won the war and took his surrender, but I didn't get any of his land. Why didn't I get his Kingdom title? If it matters, he's got the Kingdom titles for Denmark and England as well as a slew of lower level titles.

What would be a good retinue composition when you got no cultural retinues (I dont, for some reason)? Mine was mostly in cavalry and heavy infrantry and archers, and it was working fine. But that seems poorly effective againsnt the mongols.

In case anyone's wondering, the new Nubian cultural retinues are 500x +60% Offensive archers (just like English/Welsh though they don't get the longbow tactic) and the building gives a split of heavy and light infantry and archers.

Yeah, it was pretty cool when that fired. You find a dirty, sticky knife, then get out into the light and find that the knife sticky because it is covered in blood. Urg. Then your guardian birches you (or whatever) without giving you a chance to explain.

Oh, Aztecs. How did you manage to immediately find the one fight this side of the Atlantic you couldn't win?  100K doomstack and the Aztec military dominance just gone in a single battle. For the sake of one duchy. Admittedly a pretty good, defensible duchy. Probably not worth challenging the second largest military might though.

I've had this with the Timurids before when I'd conquered most of the Holy Land as Brittania. They took over Persia easily and then tried to invade British Mesopotamia immediately afterwards, and I ended up fighting like a decade-long war against them where they would destroy my armies but lose one or two doomstacks doing it, my armies would reform in Britain while I held them off with replenishing retinues, mercenaries, and holy orders, and then my guys would get shipped back to the Middle East and we would do it all over again, until they ran out of doomstacks and I made them surrender. It was glorious, one of the most epic wars I've fought in Crusader Kings.

Something that could make intrigue even more interesting would be if you could plot to influence somebody to take a particular action. Like, say, you're a duke who owes 350 gold to the Jews, you could plot to influence your king to kick them out so he eats the penalty and you lose your debt. You could maybe even plot to influence people to make specific diplomatic decisions with certain people, so you could even engineer a war, but that would be another level of difficulty yet. It would be supremely cool, though.

Eh. 'Difficulty' for plots is too binary for that, I think. Either enough people will join the plot for you to pull it off, or not, with just a little bit of wiggle room from those who are close enough to the edge to be bribed over.
