Sorry for making GBS threads up the thread, guys, but I have more Norse questions! I conquered Denmark pretty early on, granting me the title of King from the dude who had already created the title, but this has led me to a bit of stalling out... It seems my subjugate CB has disappeared. Is this because I have a title as King, or could the previous king of Denmark have reformed the faith, which transfers to me after my conquest? I'd really like to conquer the poo poo out of Sweden, but the lack of subjugation would make it an incredibly slow and arduous task.

Pretty sure you can only subjugate a kingdom when you yourself are not a king.

Isn't subjugating a kingdom a once per lifetime thing?

You only get to use Subjugate once per character unless your ambition is to become a King(which it can't be, since you are one).

So, I'm trying to make a little mod that makes it so that the Christian holy orders don't just spawn all at once in a big pile the very second the crusades start, and since I know absolutely nothing about modding CKII beyond making new flags I decided to start out simple and simply make it so that their founding events fire when certain counties are under control of Christians after the crusades start(Templar, Hospitallers when Jerusalem is taken, Santiago when Santiago is taken, ect.). So here's the code I've got so far, keep in mind I don't know poo poo about coding so this is just me copy and pasting some code a dude in the Paradox forums suggested, this is the Formation of the Templar event:code:
Keep in mind the only thing I've changed from vanilla is replacing the OR = 'the byzantine empire is falling down' with the two AND =. So what am I doing wrong? Is it my syntax? I feel like I'm trying to put together some crazy ten thousand piece ikea furniture without an instruction manual.

Elias_Maluco posted:I think cognatic should be an option for all religions and I actually mod the game to allow it. I think it kind of makes sense that it's not available as a default option, but I like the ideas some mods have where ambitious female rulers can set it. You still kind of have to work for it, which still feels historically accurate because women COULD achieve power in that era, but cultural forces were generally aligned against them. Actually I don't know if a mod for this exists already but another interesting thing could be to create a new "gender egalitarian" trait. Men with the trait wouldn't get the "female heir" or "female ruler" opinion penalty, and male rulers with the trait could set abs cog inheritance law. They could get the trait as an event if they're educated by a woman, or by a man who has the trait themselves. Plus maybe some other random events could grant it to people if their liege is female and is a generally good ruler (represented by high stats, traits like just or kind, etc.)

Started an Amalfi game in the Charlemagne start, and the Kazars just subjugated the Byzantine Empire, revoked Constantinople, and settled as the new Emperors Edit: He wants to be my buddy Tehan fucked around with this message at 23:34 on Jul 24, 2015 |

You still kind of have to work for it, which still feels historically accurate because women COULD achieve power in that era, but cultural forces were generally aligned against them. Yeah, I once had planned a mod where a number of conditions would allow special decisions which would rise a hidden "egalitarian" law. Something like this: 1- having a female ruler for more than 10 years allows the decision for "low egalitarian", which allows cognatic 2- having at least 30% of your vassals to be woman allows the decision which will raise it to "medium egalitarian, which will allow females to be council members 3- ?

Every time there's a new religion or government expansion, the religion or government featured will be overpowered at release (i.e. Merchant Republics, Muslims, Norse, etc). The Nomads will probably chill after a few patches.

Slight problem when you go all out with the pillaging, the chance for rebels skyrockets. Each rebel insurrection you crush gives you +1% MA for 10 years, I have +45% right now and they just.keep.coming.

Since then successive emperors have invaded Italy, Armenia, Georgia, and Cumania. Nobody can even slow them down. EDIT: Aaaaand it's over. A slow emperor got murdered by his wife after their first daughter, who was assigned her genius Sunni uncle as tutor. Almost instantly she goes Sunni and the empire is an iqta now.

It's like he woke up one day and decided to start the pre-Horse Lords Mongol invasions a few hundred years early. Can the AI take the "recreate the roman empire" decision? Sounds like they're on their way in your game.
