poo poo poo poo, early in my reign a faction wanted to repeal low tribal obligation back to minimal, and the really powerful leader dodged all my assassinations so I caved. Now I can't change any laws in several years, and am unable to revoke titles  upgunned shitpost posted:you can also build up a tribal holding as the top level building on a feudal county. really good source for heavy infantry while you're still taking advantage of tribal mechanics, like settling. you can always upgrade later. What good is settling? Upping loyalty or something?

So if you take a province with Nenets culture in Bjarmia for example, send your steward there to settle it and convert it to Norse.

Speaking of dueling, I kind of hope that for the more 'civilized' folks they add in duels for honor/til first blood, so that you can still get the duelist lifestyle and not have to make 20 rivals or whatever it takes now. I want to be some dandy fencer without having to murder my way to the top. (And then for sneaky characters they can add in ways for you to have accidents in these duels that kill your enemy with massive penalties if you're discovered.)

Charlz Guybon posted:I am the Emperor of the Romans. It works for empires too! If you only have one kingdom title, all the duchies directly under you will de jure drift into that kingdom (even if your top level title is an empire). If you have kingdoms under you, you can give them duchies that you want to drift into them (although managing this can be a pain since they often find ways of losing parts of the duchies which halts de jure drift).

I wouldn't be surprised if Old Gods, Way of Life and Holy Fury never become free to keep, either. I got Old Gods for free for signing up for Crusader Kings 3 email list or whatever.

Is Reaper's Due actually fun/interesting or does it just add more bullshit ways for my genius heirs to die? I've got the itch for some CK2 again so I picked up Holy Fury and I was thinking about grabbing one more DLC while they are on sale. In addition to that I have Conclave, Old Gods, Legacy of Rome, Way of Life, and Sons of Abraham. Any other must-haves?

The extra diseases can be tougher to deal with, but the black plague without Reaper's Due was extremely more deadly and could kill off an entire dynasty. I think it kinda evens out in the end.

The big epidemics are also great for creating opportunities for a player to exploit. Lots of realms with weak rulers that can be dethroned with weak claims after the plague rolls through.

The thing about Reaper's Due is that it turns disease into a system that you can engage with rather than just random poo poo that happens. It also gives you something to dump excess money into, which is great for catholics and/or merchant republics.

yeah reapers due rules and is extremely underrated. prosperity allows you to make any province into constantinople, it makes getting sick or hurt much more interesting and granular, and you need the dlc to get the immortality chain which is fun.

She's smart enough that you can tech up and unlock agnatic-cognatic inheritance in a generation or two to snag the Fatimid bloodline while you steal the Shia Caliph title.

The bad side effects are almost non existent too unless you are picking experimental treatments. At worst it just doesn't work as far as I know.

At worst it just doesn't work as far as I know. the bad effects for normal treatments can hurt your health badly and make it more likely that you will die to whatever is ailing you. you make this less likely by having a physician with high learning and making him like you. at +100 opinion he has functionally +5 learning for the purpose of the result.

i've found value in sending my character into hiding exactly once, and that's when i had a really brilliant character that i really did not want to lose and i didn't figure out who was behind the threat a few weeks after the first proc on the plot fired (which i survived, because i was paranoid). i deduced from this sequence of events that my spymaster was in on it despite being at +30 with me so i went into hiding for a few weeks until i could import his replacement. weirdly, i didn't get a second proc on the plot.

I went into hiding a couple of times when I couldn't stop the plot because I was on elective and two of my electors were foreign and didn't like me so I'd lose a title cause they wouldn't vote for my kid.

There are traits that make spymasters more deceitful regardless of opinion. I’ll let you guess one of them.
