That's one of the few ways you can destroy titles without actually doing so yourself. She should have inherited the counties of her father though? It's really strange. Farquar posted:I'm pretty new to this game. My grandson and heir is the king of Castille and he declares war on his brother, the king of Leon. I'd like to have a bigger kingdom when I die, so I join him as an ally. Suddenly, he dies of leprosy and his brother becomes my heir. Now I'm allied with a kid at war with my own heir. Is there anything I can do to get out of this war or switch sides? The "Offer to join King Julian the Fat" button is greyed out. What kind of war is it? If your grandson had pressed a personal claim on his brother, it should have ended with his death. And who is the new guy on whose side you are fighting on? He must somehow be allied to you as well, or you would have left he war. It's unlikely that you can get out of the war, simply stop fighting for them and hope they lose.

TheBlackRoija posted:Yeah it's exploity, I was just pointing it out because your post kind of implied it wasn't possible. There was definitely a Nantes start that did it in 25 years or less, and that's a single county count start that was entirely conquest based, plenty of exploits but none to just inherit half the map. Doesn't bother me either, I just was just sayin'.

The duchy that comprised most of the kingdom ended up inherited by my wife's younger sister, with my wife as the heir now.  I'm at work so can't check anything atm, but I remember looking and the Kingdom was Ag-Cog Gavelkind.

I was planning to matrilineally marry him to a relative so I could get his claim without giving him a title. I may have invited his wife to my court, but I think I know that wouldn't work. (Not 100% sure how inheriting claims works yet...)

Is HIP still a solid CK2+-style mod that makes stuff a little more difficult without completely changing poo poo? HIP changes a lot of poo poo. I like it, but it does have a completely new map that's missing India but has like 200 extra provinces. It also slows the game down quite a bit by introducing cool downs on just about every CB. I'd recommend it, but probably check the paradox plaza thread and be judicious with which modules you use.

And the actual reason they took India out was... actually, they didn't, the map was made before India ever happened and they just never updated it. Plenty of xenophones in Paradox forums, I know, but this one's just a case of "can't be arsed to update it for another subcontinent."

Are vikings coded to prioritize raiding the player, or is just confirmation bias because I can't see them raiding everyone else. It just seems that Iget like a million popups a minute about raiders, no matter where in the world I am at the moment. Like, seriously? India is a more valuable target than ALL the rest of europe that is right by your door?

Vikings are raiding pretty much all the time and there are a lot of them. It's retarded and pretty bullshit that even after your empire has slaughtered 139 Viking raiding parties in a row they just keep right on sending 'em. THAT part is by design and just there to annoy the player.

They must just be there to nerf merchant republics, they always destroy the trade posts when they siege them, so you have to constantly be on the lookout for the little fuckers. It's actually one of the reasons Norse republics are so good, you never have to worry about them and they kill competition.

I'm a relatively new player and I would like some advice on a situation I have. I'm the King of Wales and Ireland and I also have some territory in Scotland. The Pope called a Crusade against Finland and I wasn't in a war and wasn't planning on being in one for several years, so I decided to summon all 18k of my dudes and go crusading. I showed up before the Pope and aside from him, no one else showed up. I split my army into 3 parts and started sieging and battling armies. Most of the counties were single holding counties so this went quickly. I got my warscore up to 100% and all of a sudden I am the King of Finland with a demesne of 18/7 after the Pope calls victory. I got everything in the Kingdom of Finland aside from 2 counties in Karelia. I have 11 counties and 2 duchies to give away. How should I give away all this land? Do I need a Finnish county in my demesne to keep the King of Finland title?

Shaman Ooglaboogla posted:They're tenacious fuckers, I've gotten them in Taurica before. Vikings in India are very strange, since you can't sail there at all if you don't own land around the Arabian Sea. Vikings in Taurica are normal, since you can just sail down the big rivers in the Eastern European steppe. In fact, when I'm playing Norse in that time frame, I often alternate between raiding Byzantine and Italian lands.

How might one switch from being a Merchant Republic to being Feudal? I succeeded in my Viking Merchanty plans, but I am missing being a KING. Do I designate an heir and give him a castle title?

Yes because I am so incredibly interested in my Character's every day life... like brushing his teeth.... But more content directly correlates to fun right? Even if that content would boil down to a detailed event chain of how your king copes with his violent diarrhea.

You can turn off the things you don't want, you know  Edit: I can understand not using mods if they're pure poo poo, but basic HIP without all the extra crap just improves on things. If you don't like that, why do you buy DLCs and install patches? Wiz's CK2+ was the best mod when he still ran it, and it had no extra dumb stuff.

All i got out of the 5000 words description is "less random event adding removing traits, more choices impacting your traits". "Overhaul mod with a focus upon quality, coherency, plausibility, and dynamism" is so descriptive, how about some example of the changes in the mod so i can know if i want it. Then i realized the changelog was hidden in the fourth post. Yeah, that's kind of an issue. I personally found the Wiki page to be a good source of "what does this mod actually do".
