Watch them just be heavy infantry. e: Which is a perfectly cromulent retinue type, it's just most people would probably expect cavalry. But why would the horses want people riding them?

Black Death appeared around 1070 with it set to Random on a 867 start. It managed to make it all the way to Romania in two years after starting in Bengal. I had a hospital with all the fixins but the last hospital level upgrade, so with my prosperity my capital had 30% disease resistance. It held the plague off for almost a year after it reached a neighbouring province. Just long enough for it to reach my wife in Provence and kill her before it even threatened me.  All in all I don't think it was worth the immense amount of money it took to build it up, but I had money to burn. Now that it's here my massive wealth won't do a drat thing.

 Being the highlander is a sad life. You have to watch generation after generation of your children die to different horrible diseases or worse the catastrophic gently caress ups while trying to cure those diseases. I was possessed for a bit and was really hoping to be an immortal devil spawn but it wasn't meant to be.

I hope I get the immortality event again sometime; only saw it once so far but I haven't been playing too much so it makes sense. Can it fire multiple times in one game, or is your first shot your only one, whether for that character or for that save as a whole? Unrelated, what are some good starts for learning to play as a vassal, and are there good guides or important tips for it? I want to try being a 769 Zoroastrian sometime but most are not independent, and it seems like a rather hostile situation for my first time playing a vassal. I have all the major DLC, if that matters. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 11:59 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Hey, DR, would it be possible for us to get a simple terrain mapmode in the game at some point? EUIV's is super useful at this point and I'm really feeling the lack here. (Immortals definitely need some way to desperately search for a way to make their friends and family immortal/go slowly mad over aeons as everyone they ever love ends up dying and leaving them behind )

The actual immortality chain is player only at the moment, although we might add a game rule to go hog wild, but you can meet some immortals to murder as part of it. Simple terrain map, I doubt will happen. I can see the use, but it's unlikely it'll get any code time. Not impossible, mind.

Some more questions. First, how do realm and inheritance laws apply when it comes to your lower titles and those of your vassals? Could, for example, my vassals take away women's rights in their realms even if I've granted them on a kingdom/empire-wide level, or do the laws I pass overrule their own? Also, how is distance measured in the game? Apparently quite a few things care about distance, but I have no idea how far 100 units are and such.

It calculates based on pixels in the data map modified by a conversion value in defines if I remember correctly. So 10 pixels in data map might be 1000km's or some such.

Inheritance laws for all your lower titles follow the same laws as your primary. I think elective is different in that if you lose the election to someone not in your dynasty you'll only lose the primary title rather than all your titles (it might steal one of your counties too if the election winner doesn't have any land). If you have other titles that are equal in rank to your primary, they have their own inheritance laws. Kingdoms will also always have separate inheritance laws, even if you're an emperor. Vassals will always have their own inheritance laws, although Reaper's Due added in the ability to demand that they switch to Gavelkind if they are using something else. If you ever aren't sure how a title will be inherited, just mouse over the coat of arms - it will tell you the inheritance laws for that title and list the top five in line for it. For laws like women's rights or council power, those only apply to your own titles - your vassals have their own realm laws which will overrule your own. If you want to see how far away something is, the county tooltip that appears when you mouse over a county will say how far away it is from your currently selected county.

Count, dukes and kings have full control over the inheritance laws for the titles they hold. Doesn't matter what the laws are for the empire/kingdom they are located in. AI Vassals will frequently change inheritance laws to primogeniture if given a title that currently has elective. But the vassals and council of the AI may also plot and force change inheritance laws, usually from primogeniture/gavelkind into elective.

Okay, thanks. That's useful. Also, semi-related question, what's a good place for noble obligations to be? I know I want money out of my burghers but nobles now provide decent gold apparently, at least according to what I saw being said here, so shifting them towards troops might not be the decision anymore, I guess.

The AI usually do not prioritize changing laws regarding gender in my experience. They usually put all effort in changing the inheritance law to elective or primogeniture and back. For all obligations I would put money first, you will get the most soldiers out of your own demesne anyway. Try to have as many castles in the same counties as possible. For example instead of controlling 4 counties you want to have 1 county with 3 castles and another county so that you get the max out of your raise soldiers and raise taxes thingys.

What's worse, he's my friend, too... And I'm about to attend one of his parties! Sheesh, anything I can do to get out of this? I can't go into hiding, I can't imprison him..

Probably modder fodder, but I would love events in the game to actually recognize you were immortal. How many times is my doge going to get outed for being gay? He's been gay for a hundred years now... Nobody notices your immortal, too. It seems almost like it could be a different playstyle, where you can either try to keep it secret, go in hiding, 'die' then come back 'as your heir' every so often. Or, you could come out an admit being immortal, maybe even try to start your own god-king pagan religion, course, you'd get a lot of outside people hating/envying you and wanting to kill you. Maybe Elective Monarchy/Merchant Republics could revolt if you're immortal and don't hold elections every X years. DMW45 fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Sep 1, 2016 |

You sure accumulate a lot of traits and modifiers as an immortal Started getting tired of the character after 2 centuries, so I started asking my physician to experiment on me every time I got the sniffles and after a couple of years I lost an eye a hand and a face, but I got this sweet golden mask which almost negates the attraction penalty.  My biggest annoyance is I've still got elective gavelkind and I can't change out of it since I changed to ag-cog 150 years ago  (Edit: That solved itself when I created an empire, but it should still be changed to once per ruler or every 50 years.) And whenever I become a berserker it only lasts for a couple of days before I lose it due to age. Chickpea Roar fucked around with this message at 17:24 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Do events that give you "one-eyed" make you "blinded" instead if you already have one eye? It seems like they should. Maybe halve the odds of them triggering because you might get hit in the eye you already lost instead.

It's been nearly a century and Antioch still hasn't culture swapped to Armenian - do I need to be independent for the event to fire? I've got the whole duchy and the county borders an Armenian province...does the crown focus help? On another note I can't wait until mods start updating for this, want to see what HIP is going to do with it. I've been playing with that one so long that vanilla is a bit refreshing, but I do miss the deeper faction system and the expanded ambitions. Only having three or four ambitions to choose from is sad. Oh I have another question if anyone knows, I got elected Emperor of Byzantium as the king of Armenia + leige of Azerbaijan, Cilicia, Tabriz, Kartli, and Trebizond. Why did the latter duchies become direct vassals of the new emperor when my guy died? How could I avoid that? It hadn't been enough time to de jure drift them into my kingdom (and I probably have to be independent? Idk) but it seems illogical that the next emp gets all the duchies I worked so hard to subjugate. I was left with just Armenia proper and the duchy of Antioch, I assume I kept the latter only because it was my capital! It was bullshit and I'm considering consoling them all back into my clutches even tho I've been pretty good about not cheating this run. It's just unacceptable.
