Quick check: if you don't have Rajas of India, does all RoI content (except for UI graphics) still apply to NPCs? I.e. if I march my Western army all the way to conquer India, I might still fight war elephants in a jungle?

Make sure you aren't tutoring someone elses kids. If your liege sets you as a tutor then it doesn't show a prompt.

Toplowtech posted:If you monopolize the trade posts inside your republic territory they are trying extremely hard not to drop one outside of it (out of fear of getting an embargo?). If it's inside a postless coast in your republic they will built one in it but once your republic territory is filled the AI will rarely invest in one if it's not a same religion/same culture ruler next to you. This isn't true. See above.

Is there any way to at least vaguely control who gets grabbed and tossed in the dungeons when you go raiding? I'm probably going to be setting aside my Norse ironman game soon, since ~200 years in I've hit the point where anything less than Byzantium is barely a speedbump and it's a given that the world will be painted Megabritannian red at my leisure unless I intentionally do a bunch of stupid things to cripple and splinter the empire. I'd like to get Holy Smoke before I stop, though. Thinking I might try diplostabbing everyone in the Ecumenical Patriarch's court mid-assault, since I've got a gigantic pile of money on hand. Would that work, or is there a better way/no real way to influence it beyond praying the RNG god feels generous? Also, I'm looking at more difficult starts to try next so I hopefully don't end up steamrolling the world so trivially again. I'm particularly looking at the Old Gods Nestorian island, because their heresy sounds fun. Have some questions about that start, though. Is there any standard early-game gameplan for them to keep in mind? From a quick look at their position, it seems like the way to go would be to prioritize piety accumulation and shipbuilding tech, spam the Order of St. Addai on whatever nearby coastal minor powers are still independent by the time I have enough of a fleet to send them places, and then probably try and marry/claim forge my way into Abyssinia and Nubia so I've got some room to grow without triggering Jihads/otherwise provoking the Caliph until I'm big enough to maybe put up an actual fight. Am I on the right track, or am I off/missing major stuff? And re: the heresy, is there any vaguely reliable way to get it, or do I just have to hope my chaplain procs the ~2% heretic find fairly quickly or that Nestorian provinces start turning from its iffy starting MA so I can get it via swapping to my capital's religion? And once I'm there, I know divine blood can start giving me a bunch of inbred lunatics if I don't marry outside to freshen up the gene pool now and then, but I also recall someone mentioning a fertility malus for divine marriages in here a while back. If there really is one, how bad is it? Is it a tiny penalty that I can more or less ignore if I'm diligent about getting my heirs and their spouses diplo/steward educations and try to find Lustful tutors when possible, or is it big enough that periodic outbreeding is also necessary to keep a decent stock of emergency spare kids and cadet branches around?

I just watched a timelapse video of HIP with SWMH, and Jesus that is an ugly map. There are bits of territory in wasteland zones! And did the make most of Sinai wasteland too? And didn't they remove most of India? I thought I heard that but the video didn't show the far east of the map.

Are the Caliphs any more vulnerable to capture if I could catch one in peacetime, or is there no other way but taking a swing at Byzantium and hoping I get lucky? I'd try the Pope if he was vulnerable, but I kicked him out of Rome decades ago, no one bothered to kick a spare church his way, and the odds of that changing are slim since Catholicism is barely clinging to life at this point.

So IS there currently a way to vassalize the Jomsvikings? I've heard things about inviting the heir apparent to your court, landing him, and then killing the current title holder. But that doesn't seem to work at all, even when I do all those steps while still paused. It just promotes someone completely different.

Give them a county or barony within your territory if they don't already have one, be same culture/religion, and hold an emperor level title. Offer them vassalization, and if the head of the order likes you, he should accept.

Rumda posted:Is it ironman? It is not, but I figured it out: There is a "Compress Game Data" checkbox now. Would anyone mind looking at this game for me? my Liege recently pressed my de jure claim on Amalfi (I am duke of Salerno) and succeeded; I now have Amalfi. I'd like to capture Neapolis and tidy up the whole region, but I can't actually declare war on Neapolis, because their Liege is the former Doge of the Amalfi republic (who doesn't get to live in Amalfi because I own it now). How do I fix this? Also, and ideas as to why I still can't Educate Children would be fantastic. The game seems to think I'm living in Pavia (because I've been training troops there as Marshall) so maybe that's why? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28675812/Benevento914_03_26.zip Here's a picture of the problem with the doge:  There's not even an option to declare war -- it's just not there.

The trick to getting that chieve, I heard, is to start as a pagan near Byzantium (I think Kiev is the main fav) and reloading until you get an EC that's Byz's court chaplain and then imprisoning him when he inevitably tries to convert you.

I actually went and joined the new continuation team (because it seemed like the only way I'd ever see an update and HIP is Not My Thing) and, while we're still bughunting, the dev version is playable and feedback is always welcome. (no they are not going back to the vanilla map)

Whenever I choose to raise levies two of my vassals aren't producing troops. They both have them stocked up, and I'm on good terms with them, but I can never raise levies. Why is that? In the military menu the levies appear depleted but they appear full (but still inaccessible) in the holdings section.
