Right, figured i'd try playing a republic, but running into one weird snag after another. First i couldn't marry anyone at all, didn't give me any reason, just a greyed out "Send" button, eventually i found someone. Now i can't educate my own heir. What gives? I'm playing as one of the lower rank patricians in Venice if that matters.

I'm playing as one of the lower rank patricians in Venice if that matters. I seem to remember it costs a buttload of money to marry if you're a patrician. Edit: Patricians are considered lower than barons for marriage purposes, and frequently have a hard time getting noble brides without paying a dowry. This bride price increases according to the rank of the lady's relatives. Relatives of kings and emperors are more expensive. Also, ladies of a patrician dynasty cannot marry matrilineally.

So in the mod Lux Invicta I found out a cool thing you can do: Kidnap your family members, enslave and castrate them, then give them titles because when they die it'll just revert back to you!

Conquering Republics based on Titular titles is buggy as gently caress. Even if you manage to take all their holding, they (and their trade posts) will continue to exist for a while, possibly as an independent state, possibly as unlanded vassals. Conquering them can randomly end your game if you press a claim on the Titular Duchy the Republic is based on.

Not allowed to educate. Not allowed to take Venice. Could build trade posts tho.

Now that I'm a quadruple Emperor, my game has started going super slow. Bumping up the process priority to High made it bearable but God knows for how long. Also Carpathia seems really easy for an Emperor title. What determines if I suffer unlanded son penalties? Is it if the primary title is Primogeniture or if any Kingdoms are Primo?

I got a crusade called against me for Sicily, I won it by besieging 3 of the HREs provinces in Italy. A couple of days after the crusade was done I called my own Jihad for Italy. The next Jihad was much more hard to win, it lasted only some 16 months but I lost around 100,000 of the 196,000 troops I raised in that short time.

How the hell do crusades work? I got 70% of the work done for the crusade for the kingdom of Burgundy and the pope gave it to some random woman and I didn't get any land at all! What a jerk. Fortunately I have a claimant so I'm just going to reconquer it, but it's the principle of the thing. I'm playing a woman ruler. Maybe that has something to do with it? Sucks that women can't lead troops and only get 25 piety/prestige when your troops conquer crusade target counties. Should have started as a Basque...

I control the British Isles, as well as parts of western France. My current problem is that my heir is a dude who was forced out and hosed off to go live in India. He's too far away for me to interact with, which is pretty inconvenient, as I would like to have him killed. Is there any way to get him within interaction range by strategically taking land, or must I resign myself to hoping he dies before me? I'm not sure I can manage to take the province he's actually in.

So I'm having my most successful Muslim game so far with the Saffarids, got myself Persia, Baluchistan and Afghanistan kingdoms and just lucked in to Khiva due to a relative with no children holding it and then winding up dead, got all my duchies neatly within their own dejure territory and things are going swimmingly, problem is I really want that Persian empire title but I'm still only holding 70% of the territory required and the remaining land is all held by the Sunni Caliph who is my religious head, basically I'm hoping for some tips in taking this from him in the most painless way possible, I'm running an ironman save so I'm hesitating on just up and declaring war on him as it could go real bad for me and I'm doing so well Not to mention my war options are currently only the standard muslim single county claims so ideas or tips welcome.

Due to a series of weird events, I've got a four-man multiplayer session at work coming up. It'll be maybe two hours tops with with. Since I've never played multiplayer (or a game lasting two hours) and have no idea how to introduce people in a safe way, does anyone have a suggestion for start dates/locations? I was thinking Britain at 1066 in order to ease people into the game and end with a lot of backstabbing.

If somebody hold a title to the target they get it. Otherwise, whoever contributes the most to the war gets it. Pretty sure the Pope's opinion is irrelevant. However, it is possible to get forced to hand Jerusalem in particular over to the Knights Templar. That might have been what is happening but I think that can only happen if the Kingdom of Jerusalem is specifically crusaded and won.

They need a claim on the Kingdom title. If you hover your mouse over the crusade banner to the left of the main map, you should get a tooltip saying who gets all the spoils. It might change occasionally, however. And even if there's a claimant, it's still worth it to crusade just for the Crusader trait and loads of free Piety.

Tevery Best posted:They need a claim on the Kingdom title. Neither of which are available to women who aren't leading troops. In my experience, I get 25 prestige and piety for the first county conquered and none after that. The crusader trait is only available if you're leading troops in the target area (and maybe capture something?) Good call on the banner thing though - I'll check that next time us good Catholics go to war.

Possibly not if you're a woman: in vanilla the event assigning the Crusader trait only fires for men even if you somehow have a woman commanding troops along for the ride. You'll probably get a decent amount of piety (since it mostly comes from sieges and, I think, increased piety income while crusading and so on and so forth) but you won't get the trait. If there's no claimant there's nothing stopping a female ruler from getting the land, but for recapturing European kingdoms there will usually be a claimant and then, as you've seen, things get complicated. I'm pretty sure it distinguishes between claimants based on how much they contribute to the Crusade, but I don't know if it counts their contribution score personally as rulers or the score of whichever court they are hanging out at, or if it weighs different claims differently, or...yeah.

Is there a good way to reorder my vassals' land without stacking a million tyrant points? As Hispania I have vassal kings of Navarra, Castille, Andalusia, Portugal, and Aragon. Portugal lost a 4-county duchy to Aragon, Andalusia lost 2 or 3 counties to duchies in northern Africa (who are my vassals) and Aragon, Aragon lost that de jure island duchy to Portugal after Portugal had it for 100 years without me noticing, and Castille lost one of its 3 counties to Andulasia. It's a drat mess. Is there a way to redistribute poo poo so that everyone is within their de jure borders?

Kingdom claim. Rather than things like Andalusia or Jerusalem, it mostly comes into play for Catholic territory that was conquered by Muslims and restoring it to the dynasty that previously held it. For example, if the Kingdom of Burgundy is conquered by a Muslim ruler, there's a chance that the Pope may call a Crusade for Burgundy, and regardless of who contributes what to the crusade, the kingdom will be returned to the Catholic ex-King of Burgundy or their descendant.

I know that if you tumble someone then make them a concubine then they get the "Child of a Concubine" rather than the bastard trait. I'd presume that marriage would work the same way.

Whenever my daughter is up for a marraige she was betrothed into, the event window for choosing a dowry pops up. However, the only choice is "TARG", and it randomly marries her to some random vassal's kid, usually someone far too young to be married. I'm looking in the game files for the wedding dowry event, but I can't make heads or tails of it, my modding days were all with CK1 and VR1 This is what the event I THINK might have something to do with it looks like. quote:#Family of Bride select dowry
