I've had Glitterhoof on consecutive rulers. Try going mad more often.

Glitterhoof is actually pretty boring if you're not RPing, to be honest. Everyone hates him because he's a different culture and he has 0 Intrigue, so you can get him assassinated almost instantly with no effort.

Mine has never even lasted long enough to be assassinated. Every time that event fires for me, Glitterhoof dies of old age like a month later because of the big health penalty from the horse trait.

Elder Kings, too, with the Mythic Dawn and other Daedric cults. Some of them aren't so bad or frowned upon, some are. Those will be very cool.

It keeps on showing up as forbidden when I follow the wiki link (yes, I registered an account) and searching the forums proper doesn't give a link. Following hotlinks I've found lead to "forbidden".

I live in the US, so I'm assuming it's not a Great Firewall type situation.

Add your ck2 key to your paradox forums account (or link it with your steam account). Most of the subforums under the main game forum are locked down unless you actually own the game.

Go to your game library, right click on Crusader Kings 2, go to View CD Key. It should be near the top.

edit: at least the view CD key option should be near the top, the key in the list is probably at the bottom

Picks wives with little to no intrigue and assassinate them after they give you a decent son or two. You might be able to divorce them, but you might need a reason? I just assassinate them and get it over with.

Isn't there another major expansion yet? I know the map is finalized, but I thought they said something about reapers due and monks and mystics being minor with another major one on the agenda.

I'm pretty sure they said we're getting M&M, another big one, and another smaller one, and that's it. From there, we enjoy the endgame: getting to play whatever save you want without having to worry about it getting broken by the next patch.

You should have claims on their titles, and it's not fractricide if you just kill each other's peasantry for titles and put them in house arrest for the rest of their lives.

Speaking of murdering your family, is there a reliable way to get rid of the kinslayer trait? I thought if you bought absolution from the pope it'd disappear, but it seems like that's no longer the case?

quote:

On Valentine’s Day 2012, Paradox Development Studio and Paradox Interactive released Crusader Kings II, a game about Medieval conquest, intrigue, diplomacy, and faith. Over the last five years, Paradox has updated, supported and expanded Crusader Kings II and it continues to challenge the development team’s imagination. Over the last five years, the game has sold over a million copies, not counting the many hundreds of thousands of sales for the many expansions and cosmetic DLC.

Crusader Kings II launched Paradox Development Studio into a new era of popular success, demonstrating that broad and complex games about serious subjects could find a large audience. For half a decade, the game’s community has shared stories of world conquest, daring Crusades, accidental empires and soul-compromising sins.

Let’s be honest; there has been a lot of murder.

To mark this milestone, Paradox will dedicate much of 2017 to celebrating Crusader Kings II and its community. The first step in this year of modern medieval pageantry is to give away a free portrait pack to everyone that owns Crusader Kings II. This South Indian portrait pack will add more color and personality for those who fight for control of the great subcontinent.

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.
Um, didn't they already give that away?

Oh yeah right, apparently they stopped giving it for people registering their Paradox account on 12/12/16, so everyone here probably had it already.

Not sure why the release date is 14 Feb, 2017.

I even like that portrait pack and have set out to play a Dravidian several times only to remember that the subjugation casus belli is culture-group restricted and Indo-Aryan covers a much larger portion of India.

It just auto-downloaded for me just then. I hadn't been logged into my account for a while, perhaps that's it.
