I'm just thinking now how it would be great if in CK3 there was a religious option to enable concubines for your spouse. Just build a stable of strong/genius/attractive men to bang your wife and then have the children be of your dynasty.

while it's cool that there's a build your own heresy feature coming in, i wouldn't mind if there were a way to participate in some good old fashioned church controversies where there's a small window when a new sect appears, but before it gets the official church banhammer, where theologians gather, discuss, debate and decide whether the sect belongs within the mainline religion or not the best known church controversies, at least within christianity, take place either before the game begins or after but there's a couple other ones like orthodox bishops deciding whether or not they'd be better off just recognizing the pope that could pop up as a event in game where you can spend money to send your court theologian to argue your preferred case, the game could even invent a couple novel controversies to arise it'd make the heresy/orthodox system feel a little more organic to me

quote:These studies have shown that median EPP rates are only between 1 and 3% in most Western European populations [11,21,23], although rates can be higher in low socioeconomic settings Huh, I'd guess that it would be lower in poorer non-urban places cause people live in big families and also have relative freedom of marriage. But I guess here we talk about legitimate children. I guess the male lord's bastards do not count.

That would be interesting, especially if there were bonuses to incentivize it. Since at least under CK2 systems you'd be losing your bloodlines. So if you traded that for a more stable realm or a ruler with better stats, would be interesting. Of course I'd hope it also comes with a better Byzantine system. Where is the Emperor has a direct heir or appoints someone it goes to them, but there are strong claims given out and if the chosen ruler is bad, ie too young/bad stats, etc. it triggers a civil war. Rather than it being directly elective.

I was just thinking this the other day when my character died and had only had a daughter. So now I’m ruling a reformed Pagan Scandinavia as a women which feels pretty rough.

It’s bizarre looking at the history and seeing dynasties lasting for decades and then as soon as the game starts The Byzantine throne becomes musical chairs.

Yeah like there should be more chances for civil war than in a normal realm, but who the Emperor names as an heir should be the heir and get the chance to defend their title. The real life problems were more emperors not bothering to name an heir at all or just not having kids. Or being murdered.

Even without the high failure chance, I'm honestly not of fan of getting immortality. Changing from an old ruler to a new one is always eventful and interesting. And trying to adjust your realm after a leader with great stats is replaced by someone not as good is one of the few challenges after you hit late game that aren't self-imposed.

half of the benefit in immortality is the bloodline you get out of it so i'd go for it even if you intend to force your current ruler to abdicate soon

You can also crank out kids for 500 years, landing all of them, and create the biggest succession crisis ever when you finally commit suicide.

This game is such a punch in the dick sometimes. Doing the defender of the holy sepulchre and spent 40 years painstakingly conquering my home duchy and using pope invasions on Scotland and England and cleaning up my duchy. About 12 years before crusades fire I get the loving Satan spawn event and the little poo poo wipes out all of my sons who were gonna be my beneficiaries and now for some reason my only beneficiary is an old rear end female cousin. I was planning to make demon spawn my beneficiary but she’s now my only viable heir and thus unavailable to be my benificiary.

The good thing about Reaper Due is that with a good court physicist you (and your close family) actually seems to have a better chance against diseases in general Apart from that is really the least interesting of the DLCs
