Shiny777 posted: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. Oh.  I guess I can forget about that for my current game, then. I'm the Norse German King of Pomerania, so no emperor title or 'same culture' for me.

JerikTelorian posted:There's not even an option to declare war -- it's just not there. This looks like the same problem as capturing Rome sometimes has, where the Pope is displaced and unlanded, and war can't be declared to mop up the last of his territory. Rulers need to own an actual piece of land to have war declared on them, so you need to assassinate one of that Duke's vassals so that the Duke inherits, at which point you can declare war on him to finish clearing out his land. Sometimes it can be a long line of assassinations before the title makes it back up to the ruler. Make sure you kill all heirs until you see the heir is the Duke himself, once you see that go ahead and kill the vassal to have the Duke inherit. You should probably pause the game during this last part, and do the assassination and declaration of war immediately before resuming. I guess you need an mailing address to have declarations of war sent to you  .

Knuc U Kinte posted:I've never conquered all of Byzantium, but aren't there restrictions on it for other religions forming it? Seems like more hassle than it's worth. To create the empire title you need to be orthodox, but if you're lucky enough to usurp it (byz emperor can have no de jure Byzantine territory) then any religion can have it...though not sure if that gives you the ecumenical patriarch or not.

So, Kingdom of Jerusalem start. I held onto the kingdom and beat off enough Jihads that they have left me relatively alone now. I have most of the de jure country. While I was fighting, I got an event where you can choose to be merciful and an infidel soldier is impressed and asks to work for you. (I don't know if this is a HIP/VIET thing or Vanilla, I haven't played an actual Catholic crusading king in quite a while.) So this guy's a pretty cool Kurdish fellow, nice stats. I convert him to Catholicism and set him up with the land I conquered and married him to a spare sister I had lying around. Fast forward years later. King dies, young son inherits. I have that same sister (who had a great education trait and otherwise some good traits I wanted) tutor him. ... APPARENTLY my sister converted cultures at some point when I was not looking. All hail King Francois, the French-Kurdish king of Jerusalem?

snoremac posted: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. I've had this problem recently too, as the HRE. Couldn't get any troops from Bavaria and some others. For me they even showed up as full in the military menu, and the raise all vassal levies button was clickable but didn't do anything. No idea if this is a bug or something else though. I lost the election fairly soon after and ended up back as duke, so I wasn't able to do any more testing with it.

JerikTelorian posted:It is not, but I figured it out: There is a "Compress Game Data" checkbox now. It's because he's unlanded. Did you play this game in the beta version? Quick way to fix it, use console - "charinfo", check the id of the problem doge, console "kill <HisID>". Use console - "charinfo" again to turn it off. You don't seem to have a CB on Neapolis though, so you'll need to forge a claim or something.

A saved game is no different from a historical bookmark, unless it's an ironman save (obviously). So, if you've run out of things to do in a game, but still want to see how things turn out in that world, you can swap over to another realm.

Allyn posted:Liberation revolts are noticeably stronger than regular revolts, in my experience. So you'll at least tone down how many men you've gotta squash. Yeah, but liberation revolts are independent. The religious revolters all merge together, so you can't stop one without stopping them all. This is particularly bad because all revolters will accept a white peace (which will imprison the leader) at 50%, so it takes a lot longer when a new religious revolt joins the old one. Further I swear I always get the double-religious revolt (revolt followed by second revolt) on the same day.

Wouldn't be a merchant republic if I didn't hold territory all over the place. I won the crusade only using mercenaries because my retinue had been wiped out in a moment of stupidity. I was still making money with 10k mercs running around Jerusalem though. It also helps when you can ask the pope for 2000 gold at a time, and multiple times because he likes you very much when you're crusading. Can I form the empire of Hispania as Genoa? Because I figure that's my best bet of vassalising the pope.

So, I bought this and finished the tutorial yesterday. Could you please reccommend me a good 867 start to have the easiest and possibly least traumatic experience of the game? In EU4 I play as France which is considered by many the easiest country to play with, especially because it is so powerful that you can't gently caress it too badly  What is the equivalent of France in CK2?

Ivar is a viking, which isn't really the base way to play, and he starts immediately at war. King of Italy I'd say. You're part of the Karling blob, so some with lots of powerful allies, the merchant republics take a while to become anything like a threat, there's potential for expansion by wars to the south and expansion by inheritance in the north, and there's only a dozen or so duchies in Italy so vassal management isn't too much of a chore.

(well, fine, West Francia) But Italy or Germany or Bavaria works too. Basically any Karling king is easy mode at 867 (which is why people who play anything else in Western Europe end up wanting to obsessively murder the entire family).

What is the most powerful culture/religion for a new character? Welsh/Norse seems very good because of good retinues, Tanist succession and a good mix of available CBS. I've heard that Tengri can wage unlimited kingdom sized invasions, at will? Is this true? Does it require a certain culture?

I've heard that Tengri can wage unlimited kingdom sized invasions, at will? Is this true? Does it require a certain culture? If you're doing ruler creator, take the Aztec or Mongol cultures, this gives you unlimited access to the tribal invasion CB unless you're also Christian. Specifically, one of the conditions is horde culture (Aztec or Mongol) and not christian. So you can be a Jain Mongol and benefit from both the Tribal Invasion and the vassal opinion bonus, so you have a rapidly expanding, stable realm. The only down-side is that your succession is locked to Agnatic, so you won't ever have a woman on the throne. Alternatively you can be any pagan religion, not just Tengri, and Magyar or Altaic culture group for the Tribal Invasion. The reason why people think the tribal invasion is part of being Tengri is that you're generally both at once, but Norse still get access to the tribal invasion. One of the record breaking world conquest runs was a Cuman Norseman, on the grounds that it's faster to move troops around the steppe with boats. If it's picking from the map, either take the Magyars, since you get access to a lot of event troops in the 867 start, or one of the starts in Tartaria, so you have horse archers. If you have any preferred starts, you could invade your way there until you can change culture, but early access to the tribal invasion is the best way to go.

Question for Westeros-mod players: Is it possible to elevate your standing from Ser/Landed Knight to Lordling status? Also was there a distinction between the class of nobility that knights belonged to vs the rest of the nobility (Baron/Count/Duke) as it's portrayed in ASOIAF? E.g., a landed knight wealthier and holding more titles than a technical baron or count was still lower on the social hierarchy. Or did owning a landed title such as the barony of such-and-such automatically make you a Baron? theDOWmustflow fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Jun 5, 2014 |

I'm going to shill for Haesteinn - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hastein - again. This works with RoI, and it's a fun start: 1. Load your event army up on the boats. 2. Conquer Sardinia (for the diplomatic range). 3. Swear fealty to the Khazars. 4. Culture change to liege's Khazar culture, giving you the tribal invasion CB. 5. Form independence faction and immediately break loose (the Khazars have no boats to get to you even if they DoW). 6. Go nuts with the tribal invasion CB.

Pretty basic question, but is it possible to fight a war over two de jure claims at the same time? Someone is holding two counties of a country of which i'm the king of allready, but it seems I have to declare war for the first county, win the war, sign a peace treaty, then declare war over the second county (and take the prestige hit from breaking the treaty).

The only time you can press multiple claims against the same person is if they're strong claims of your own (ie. usually fabricated county claims) rather than de-jure claims or claims of courtiers/vassals.
