Change to a Celtic, Greek, or Iberian/Italian culture, all of which have Imperial crowns that own. The generic Western European one sucks.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

I'd kill for a QOL feature that lets you automate assigning guardians to children. Something like being able to say that anyone whose relation to you is "kinsman" automatically gets assigned to the courtier with the highest stat of your choosing. As it is, if I'm trying to have a particularly large dynasty (say, as a merchant republic) I end up spending what feels like half my time dealing with the popups about assigning guardians to kids who just turned 6, or finding new guardians for kids whose previous guardian died.

In a similar vein, I'm also hoping they rework that mechanic (bug?) where all of your guardianship arrangements end when your ruler dies. "You have 27 children who need guardians" uuuuggghhhhh

An interesting thing hinted at by the government tooltip:
  • Cannot build Tribal Holdings
This implies that Tribal Government types can build tribal holdings now, rather than them being the default for lands that have not feualised or republicised.
Possibly this is a solution for Tribals taking over feudal lands now, you can build a tribal holding in an empty slot, or possibly even burn feudal holdings down.

EDIT:

Also, look at the tooltips view, there's a new one that looks like a temple, turns out that shows government type.

When I've played as the Mongols I always get my share of missionaries from the Indian religions. Which is good because, unless they've changed it, being a Jain Mongol makes you basically unstoppable. But I think AI Mongols are programmed to be very unlikely to convert to anything other than Sunni/Shia with Nestorianism and Orthodox being slightly less likely than Islam but slightly more likely than Catholicism or Hindu/Jain/Buddhism.

AI rulers sending their chaplains to convert? I know I get spammed with that in my pagan games, and I figure that's why the Horde kept converting early in my current game - but do Buddhists do it and can it fire on underage rulers?

Oh, I didn't realize Indian religions did that too, I guess that must have been it. (Also, in the pic I posted he's Hindu, not Buddhist, I don't know if that makes any difference)

Well the entire government thing has made a lot more things dynamic and allowed us to move a lot of hard coded stuff to the scripts instead. The tooltip is automatically generated I believe so don't draw to much from it. Most important thing is no more sudden game over because of government changes.

I dunno how I feel about the Commander title, seeing as I lead a bunch of armies at once usually. How generous are you gonna be with them? I have like, 9 armies running around as Byzantium and if I didn't have Siege Leaders in a bunch of them it would be hell waging war.

Generous enough I think, and even if that is enough you can always recruit mercenaries to get access to like 6 more commanders I guess.

So you only going to have six possible commanders? So if you are moving 3 armies, you wont have commanders for all of then?

Well my 88 years old Sigurdr died of being an old possessed man. Never had any events pop for it other than the first that applies it to you. Let me sit on a nice natural 34 martial. Dueled at least 7 people from a family that were all my rivals killed 3 of em. Held the kingdoms of Norge Sweden and Denmark in territory but just Sweden in title. So when he croaked one son got everything that I didn't as I was a grandson who was strong and I'm keeping this gene in my family.

Anyways Ake the new king gets back from looting with his dads corpse and before he's even taken off the boat I'm yelling to war all claims and take my poo poo back immediately. I do thanks to my 8k personal levies (100% Reform Norse MA is nice) and smash his teeth in. A month later I've stabbed anyone who looks at my stuff funny and even maimed a rival in a spear throwing contest right after a faction puts him up to try and take my throne.

Gonna raid till year 900 then go feudal I think.

Thought I had a nice game going as Sigurdr then Ragnarr going, except I didn't know the intricacies of Elective Gavelkind succession. For those who don't know your heirs who don't inherit your primary title can freely split off and start their own kingdoms. Silly me created the Empire of Scandinavia and held all four kingdom titles thinking it worked the same as regular old Gavelkind. Ragnarr dies his heir dies in a duel a week later and suddenly I'm playing the Emperor of Scandinavia who only controls half of Sweden. And they all hate me. I try to start a war to reclaim some land and it turns out that all my relatives like the other guy better and join the war as his ally.

Somehow the warriors are able to raise 26,000 men, and thus Slavic is now the dominant religion of Europe. RIP Catholicism.

I'm tempted to turn on Sunset Invasion to see if the Slavs/Ummayads can beat the Aztecs. I mean, it's not like the history of this particular world could be any MORE hosed.

Use councillor actions to narrow down your range, or just use religious groups since it pretty much works out

It'd still be handy to have that in a filter. Religious Groups doesn't work quite that well, particularly for Pagans stretched from Ghana to Russia.

Apparently there's going to be one more update to VIET, and after that, the future of the mod is up to the other people who worked on it.

Both of those mods are part of HIP - Historical Immersion Project, which I tend to play with, so it'll be interesting to see what happens next.

Most of Fraticelli Lombardy went to one of the Catholic holy orders, then was given to a member of my dynasty who kept it as personally-held count-level titles for some unfathomable reason (I even gifted him enough money to form a duchy, he immediately spent it on holding upgrades, I think). Once I noticed he had me as his heir, it was remarkably easy to stab him thanks to the -200 oversized demesne penalty he was taking from his burghers and bishops.

His Liege was a Duke-level character, so he couldn't form a Duchy without being independent.

After spending at least a century nibbling away at the Persian blob in holy war after holy war I found out that I had a dude with a claim on all of Persia in my court. So I pressed his claim and voila, slightly prettier borders.

I really hate the tribal gavelkind system.

What will also happen is if you have the ability to create a same level title (like say Kingdom of Norway if you're already King of Sweden) but you don't want to since it'll gavelkind off and be independent, it doesn't matter because upon succession the game creates the title and gives it away anyway. Plus you can't just give the 2nd in line a temple or whatever since religious figures are still eligible to inherit.

I started a game as Sigurdr last night and quickly snapped up some nearby provinces (your personal levy is like 2x bigger than the surrounding 1 or 2 province dudes) enabling me to form the Kingdom of Svipjod, then started vassalizing all the other 1 province dudes around me until I basically had all of Sweden except for the Sumonesko in the north and a duchy that already belonged to Denmark in my realm.

Then Ragnarr's brother gets the Kingdom of Norway and I lose half the realm. Makes it loving impossible to get to a decent size without going feudal unless you do some super game-y poo poo. Gavelkind is fine I just don't know why they had to make the tribal/elective gavelkind so much more punishing. I either have to not marry and seduce it up until I finally legitimize a bastard or murder all my male kids except for one.

Add that to the change in how vassals vote for the heir and it's infuriating. I can't land any of my sons. I don't want to land my direct heir so he doesn't marry some idiot with poo poo stats, but I can't land anyone else because the nobles will all go 'oh well let's vote for him then!' and my first born gets hosed.

It wouldn't be as bad if I could just concentrate on raiding in the beginning instead but you don't start with any ships so it's not really easy to raid anyone worth a poo poo until 100-200 years after the start date.

Just marry him before you land him.

But yeah, elective gavelkind is awful.
