It gets weird when you're playing in Russia and a Cuman adventurer is too far away for stabbing, but you can still call up the king of France and ask him if he's got prince albert in a can.

WeaponGradeSadness posted:Have they automatically converted for you before? I've been playing since launch and I've never seen it happen. You still have to arrange the marriage through diplomacy, as if you had never betrothed. The betrothal itself is basically just calling dibs, no one else can marry them until you either accept the marriage or break the betrothal. They've always worked before. The younger party would turn 16 and the "cool idea bro, let's hitch our relatives" box from the other noble would appear. This doesn't happen any more. Worse, you can't even complete the marriage through diplomacy because the game won't allow you to marry anyone to a betrothed person - including their betrothed. You have to break the betrothal and incur the malus before you can marry them off.

Nightblade posted:Tell your spymaster to sow discontent and anything in range will be green. I thought sow discontent was a chancellor action. Anyway, is sow discontent a worthwhile action to take, and is there a good way to get the best out of it? Normally my chancellor is either fabricating claims or doing improved diplomatic relations on my most-pissed-off vassal, and my spymaster does little but sit in Constantinople studying technology or scheming to knock people out of factions.

Gort posted:I thought sow discontent was a chancellor action. It's situationally useful. I've used it before when there's an unpopular king and an unhappy vassal on my border, to incite the vassal into some kind of revolt so that I can attack him and take some land. It's hard to tell when it works, though, and in my experience you're much more likely to incite local barons, mayors, and bishops into disliking the vassal you're actually targeting than you are to succeed in the real mission.

Gort posted:I thought sow discontent was a chancellor action. Oh, yeah, probably? I'm may be thinking about some other councillor action. The point is, if you use one of the councillor actions that are valid for all provinces you'll see where your diplomatic range extends. I usually use steal technology, but since provinces that have no technologies higher than your capitol shows up grey it's not 100% accurate.

Yeah you have to target individual vassals and stick your chancellor on their capital. Sticking it on the liege won't do anything at all. The upside of this system is that you get to choose who you're targeting, so your chancellor won't waste his time on content relatives. The downside is you can only sabotage one relationship at a time.

At the start there are 3 de jure empires located in india. If you are indian and own everything inside these 3 empires you can combine them into one big empire of india and become the Samrat Chakravartin. Previously some events only worked for the de jure empires of india but not the combined empire of india. Now they do.

Their land sucks, they have no unique events and their cultural retinue is light infantry. Paradox basicaly says "lol gently caress africa" in some way every single game and here's your "gently caress africa" moment. West Africans are almost entirely featureless and its "working as designed".

Wow, that was the least enjoyable pagan faction I've played and its working as intended  . gently caress that then back to being Norse pagans unless there's some faction from old gods that's basically set up to murder the poo poo out of HRE. My last game I finished HRE managed to stall me out of making the empire of britania because of truces.

Is there any good way to retrieve underage children from a foreign court? I'd handed my heir a county in my demesne so he wouldn't go running off to the court of the Genius woman I married him to, since she had a temple. He popped out a pair of daughters, I offered the eldest the hand of the Norse culture/religion Sayyid kid I'd groomed for her, he refuses because he wants a better alliance. So okay, I plot revoke his county. He runs off to his wife's court, I blow some pocket change murdering her and invite him back. And somehow, in the week or so between revoking, stabbing, and getting him back to Akershus his daughters ended up in the court of some dipshit backwater count in Konugardr. No idea why, it's like half a dozen countries away from the place my heir's wife was from, and she was lowborn so it's not some distant relative getting a hold them somehow. Konugardr's outside my realm, they're Norse too so I can't just march in my ~28K retinue to Great Holy War the place into submission, and I've got no claims on Count Childsnatcher's lands, plus the eldest daughter is 5 so I've got a bit of a time limit before the AI sticks my eventual empress with some useless dumbass as a tutor. And I'm assuming if I ask in a year they're going to just laugh and go "HERP DERP HOSTAGE IN FOREIGN POWER," since that exact same thing happened when one of my older emperors somehow left all his child sons with the Varangian Guard. Not only would they not let me tutor them, but couldn't even be assed to assign their own, so I ended up with a guy coming to the throne with a 3 star stewardship education and no other traits. Plus, as a bonus, there aren't any strong claimants to Konugardr who are willing to jump ship to my court at the moment, so I can't even just steal the kingdom that way. Is there any reliable trick for salvaging this, or am I pretty much stuck throwing a giant pile of money into stabbing the king and praying his oldest unlanded son is willing to accept an invite in the aftermath?

I don't know about retrieving them, I wasn't able to get them out when it happened to me. They would let a parent, and only a parent, tutor the children. Not a grandparent, not a sibling, parent or GTFO. So as long as your son is in your court and survives to their 16th birthday, you can get them at least that education. Should be enough to keep them from turning to some stupid foreign culture.

You used to be able to do it by usurping the kingdom of sicily, changing your primary title to that and then losing the election and then re-winning it. Not sure if that works anymore.
