I have no idea how but for some reason Tommen turned out like this after Joffrey was killed via exploding inn. He's not the only one acting horribly out of character though.  Also, awkward couples.

For him to go adventuring however, one of Merv, Dihistan, or Khorasan have to be in a different realm. What about Gengis Khan? Is an early Abbassids blob over Persia able to comfortably sit back as their Bedouin dukes will never get mongol horde invasions?

The Mongol Empire only shows up in one bookmark and the split into the 4 hordes isn't simulated (you start as Genghis Khan and Tolui is your successor via ultimo.) The Mongol bookmark incidentally is perfect for a mindless "conquer IT ALL" playthrough.

This is the only way lieges can affect succession, actually - if the de jure liege has High CA and the title was going to be inherited out of the realm, then it won't be. Otherwise there's no vanilla way to influence any of it.

Red Minjo posted:So anyway this causes me to learn that apparently taking the Slavic Pannonia king's last holding destroys the title, and you need a certain culture to create it. Does that prevent me from forming the empire that it and Wallachia are de jure part of? I was hoping I could hand all of that off so that one of my neighboring family kingdoms would actually be of my new faith. I don't find much use in all of my vassal feudal dudes, because my mansion alone gives more than all the Wendish Empire + the Pannonian lands want to. None of the wikis mention Pannonia at all yet, and everything I've seen about the area otherwise is that the Magyars are supposed to take the land and form Hungary, which obviously isn't going to be happening now. So if I want to form the kingdom and thus be able to form Carpathia, I have to get a ruler with Avar culture, right? Since I'm a merchant republic, that rules out changing my capital to get the culture. Do I keep tossing kids at Avarian people until one is good to be a successor, or is Empire of Carpathia a lost cause for me?

Double posting probably, but unpausing my game for a second after typing that other post made the building project on my erroneous second family mansion finish, and looking at the Republic page shows me with the lowest tier mansion again. Both still show up on my holdings quickbar, including the fully fledged out one I had previously.  I'm hoping both that I don't get to double my rewards and also that I don't lose what I got from the original mansion, but I get the feeling that both can't be true. Playing on Ironman too, so I can't fix it with the console.

Do the Byzantines ever go back to Orthodox if you start on the Charlamagne bookmark? I initially wanted to play as an Ortho ruler in Iconoclast Byzantium but I looked at the map and there aren't any; every single count, baron and duke is an Iconoclast.

Not really answering your question, but as the Emperor of Sicilia I took Hungary in a crusade and then handed it to my designated heir. He immediately changed it to Pannonia and I got an event message about how Hungary is no longer in the hands of the Avars so now it's known as Pannonia as in ancient times. The button said "sic transit gloria." It threw me off because I figured it should be Magyars, not Avars, but I don't confess to a deep understanding of Hungarian history. I just really like their Dobos Torte and their duck liver.

Nobody in here seems to have mentioned it, but the next DLC has been announced: Way of Life. http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?818076-Crusader-Kings-II-Way-of-Life-announced-Patch-2.3-BETA-will-be-open-to-anyone It is going to be an expansion on relationships between you and your vassals, lovers, courtiers, etc. It sounds like many more "It's good to be the King" events. This is basically everything I would want. My favourite event in the game is the Republic rival family ball, because it is all so trivial and silly, exactly as families would have been, picking petty fights. Infact, the silly rivalry bullshit is the main reason I prefer playing republics, if they are adding and expanding on some of that poo poo for feudal life, then this game is about to go up in my mind. Should give players things to do between war.

Actually I just did a couple of tests as the Mongols and uh they or at least their special (?) brand of Gavelkind is completely hosed. First off, this is the situation before succession:  This is the situation after succession:  But wait, where is the land that I, the emperor, holds? Well:  gently caress. Immediately after unpausing, as my brothers are vassals of a character (me) with a titular title and no land, they became independent. RIP Mongol Empire. However, what if we give each of Genghis's non-primary sons a lovely county in the middle of nowhere? Again, before succession:  After:  Much more workable. Of note is the fact that my capital changed in succession - it's now a castle, which means that the Mongols are now feudal. This is good, but also bad, because the laws haven't quite kept up:  Based on the opinion bonus, I still have minimal tribal organisation - that wasn't changed to minimal feudal organisation when I converted, so now I have to spend one ruler's life time just implementing the bare minimum of the feudal contract. In addition, I apparently have no law for Viceroyalties and Administration, which doesn't matter as much because those base laws have no affect anyway but is a bit weird. Also the duchies of Samarkand and Zhetysu have the same coat of arms, thought that was a bit off.

Most paradox games could use more generic events and with the focus on specific areas/regions of the map since CK2 came out we've been getting a lot of country/religion/culture specific events and not many that apply to everyone.
