Gotta say I love all of the interface improvements and streamlining compared to CK2. The characters feel much closer to the surface of the action. Adding 3D models for everyone is huge - now I actually remember people.

Achievements with named characters are bugged currently. Once you quit the game and load it up again, they disappear unless you're still playing the character. I just found out when almost getting the Mother Of Us All cheevo which took ages. gently caress. Hope it gets fixed soon without invalidating saves.

im glad i got this game but i definitely am the kind of person who likes eu and not ck. tribal poo poo especially is just too annoying for the way i like to play (blobbing, basically). My first ruler lasted 50 years and created three kingdoms and was amazing, and then she died and everything exploded and I'm back to square one, and it just doesnt spark joy. BUT its much much better than ck2 in terms of general design - there's a lot of bullshit ui stuff that needs to be fixed but it all seems easily patchable. It's really pretty, the models are cool and add quite a lot to the game (my large adult son and his dwarf nephew looked very embarrassed when i discovered their secret), the events are good, etc. I'm glad they made it and it makes me excited about eu5!

I finally got Alexios Komnenos to the throne (almost) in a ridiculously roundabout way. I began with murdering his brother so Alexios becomes the heir to their father, it went splendidly if by splendidly we mean that the deed was discovered and the whole empire knows that I am a murderer and kinslayer. Than, it turned out that creating claim to Constantinople was mistake, I can only create a faction to get that, not the imperial title. Than, I figured why not make father the emperor since I am the heir anyway. So now he sits on the throne seething with hatred. Also, I am excommunicated and loving Alp Aslan decided to kick our asses again, so I hope I still have some empire to rule when the time comes. Oh and meanwhile someone discovered and exposed a secret that Alexios isn't even his father's son lol

Yeah I'm an EU player tbh but you can blob easily as a tribal if you make sure you only have one Kingdom so when Partition happens everyone else is stuck with Duchies under your player. Once you get to Kingdom you only deal with Dukes and Duchesses which are much larger domains so you don't have to worry about the little stuff like counties breaking your domain cap since they tend to be de jure part of your Duchies and if not then a Count is so low on the food chain you can make a ton of them and it affects nothing. Haven't gotten to the point where I hold the titles to multiple Kingdoms yet but I'll worry about that when I get there.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:So being Asatru has its benefits - notably, you practice human sacrifice so not only does executing prisoners give you Piety, you lose big chunks of stress doing it. So here I am, working on gathering the thousands of piety necessary to reform the faith by raiding and chucking heathens into the meat grinder, and my king dies. Bit of a setback, but oh well. New heir has got Compassionate trait. Executions are now a 35 Stress penalty. What's more, I somehow managed to screw up succession so while I hold the title for the Scandinavian Empire, the constituent kingdoms all went to my uncle for some reason? I'm not even close to the succession either, and it's elective now so I don't even have any say. At least they're still in my dynasty, so it's not too bad. Thats funny, my second or third king in my Scandinavia run had the same problem with compassionate. But he had such high learning that he earned piety very quickly, and I actually reformed with enough spare faith that I could afford some nice changes. I actually like having all Kingdoms except Norway controlled by others. They keep expanding nicely into all directions.

I'm not sure if this is a repost, but here's how you get the Debug Mode on Gamepass Open Xbox app (the game pass app). Right click on the CK3 icon in the left hand bar. Select "create desktop shortcut". On your desktop: create a shortcut to that shortcut and append -debug_mode. Your target should look like this (USER=your win user) C:\Users\USER\Desktop\Crusader Kings III.lnk" -debug_mode Now you can start taking over the world with your nudist divine path cannibals.

Zeron posted:It does feel kind of weird that there is no real fatigue mechanic for fighting offensive wars over and over. Your men replenish incredibly fast and infinitely and your own lands don't really suffer much either. Honestly might help to bring back regencies? Your home lands should be noticably worse off/fragile when you drag literally the entire court off to fight a war halfway across the world. Or even something like giving negative opinion modifiers to families when a character dies while fighting for you. You do get an “offensive war” penalty similar to the “vassal levies raised too long” in CKII. In African thunder dome most wars last less than 6 months, the moment when it triggers, so so far it’s not a problem.

Which is better for keeping my vassals in line if I don't particularly trust them, directly giving them all the counties in the duchy, or giving each individual county a different count and putting them under a duke? My ruler has an unfortunate cough and I don't like my young heir's chances.

My liege died and his heir is an infant. I am on his council as Marshal, despite having a martial skill of 5, presumably because my Diplo skill of 29 meant my liege knew I should be on the council, but the existing Chancellor has a hook stopping him being replaced and my liege was too stupid to get a better Marshal than me instead. Anyway, my point is that my liege died and I am now being warned that raiders are in my territory every time they attack his realm, even though they're 200 miles away from me. Not that I don't like my liege, he's the only thing stopping my neighbours swallowing me whole, but I have one county and a martial skill of 5, mate, there's nothing I can do.

That way the top guy will only get a fraction of the money and levies from his vassals.

Been playing since launch and still not sure of the best way to just seize titles for myself with minimal fuss. I either incur tyranny, or have to spend a tonne of time and effort finding dirt on someone, or wipe out their entire succession line. I just wanna set myself up with a few counties and baronies so I can get lots of gold, and then be able to hand newly conquered lands to people I choose, rather than having shitheads constantly demanding to be on the council that do gently caress-all in terms of helping.

After going ham to form Britannia, I currently have -30 which isn't so bad with my vassals because they otherwise love me but it also affects Popular Opinion which leads to lots of peasant revolts. I've certainly had a lot, a couple of which made my war with Norway a lot hairier than it needed to be. Playing a humble, compassionate character for the first time instead of a complete psycho and it really makes the Stress system shine. My vassals like me and I get lots of piety but, I after a couple of murders, my guy got really stressed and now wanders the castle muttering about his guilt. Real 'is this a knife I see before me?' hours.

Easy way: - Be Zealous - Take the two pips in Torturer to make executions not cost piety - Holy war someone, siege down everything to take as many prisoners as possible - Burn those heathens at the stake Now that you have 100 Dread, you can just revoke stuff without giving a poo poo about Tyranny, everyone will be too frightened to fight back. But you'll soon find that having lots of lovely baronys is not actually the way to make a lot of money, you want to go big and tall with as many holdings as possible in your capital county (where your steward is permanently parked increasing development), pawn off all the other extraneous poo poo to vassals to let them build it up for you.

Never played a CK before, did the tutorial then hopped in as Scotland. My Marshal is -100 opinion of me and immediately raised a faction to erode my power of the crown. I feel like this is 100% the intended experience and I kind of love it even if I have little idea what I’m doing?

oddium posted:in ~890 bohemia is it better to build holdings in my baronies without them (and which can only be castles at the moment) or to build improvements in my existing baronies For Bohemia you probably want to eventually be building temples and cities everywhere since you (should) never have a lack of county capitols from landed relatives succeeding under seniority, once you're able to implement it. Since you can't build either of those holding types as a tribal, probably best to just max out the existing baronies. Hyper Crab Tank posted:So here I am, working on gathering the thousands of piety necessary to reform the faith Just be aware that it does not appear that any reformed pagan faith is able to raid no matter what doctrine or tenets you select, so no more raiding or viking traits if you press that button. Honestly not much point to reforming aside from letting everyone adopt feudalism and faster conversion time.

It's not ideal to have any of your council hate you but it's not the end of the world unless they're your spymaster. Never let someone who hates you be the person whose job it is to stop assassination plots against you.

Frida Call Me posted:How? Don't you need the appropriate innovation before you can add that law? You add "Male preference" or whatever, and that kingdom (et. al) will inherit along the same partition lines - but it does so separately from your other kingdoms. So you're have say 2 kingdoms, each with their 'own' partition lines of succession. Example: Two Empire level titles, both with gender-equal High Partition laws, both going to my heir.

The more places you have that you can improve, the more improvement you can get out of any given section of time, but it will take a while before you have that breadth of options… and of course, it will cost a crapton to do all that consecutive building so you might not end up being able to do it anyway.

Man, going into stewardship trees gives you mad money. In was getting 50 gold a month and upgraded all my castles to the max. Ransoming prisoners routinely bankrupted my rivals. Kinda annoying that my vassals aren't investing in their holdings. Also rough that I freshly conquered the Lollard half of Scotland, die, then my paste-eating son takes the reigns it all immediately grenades as Scots and Wales war for independence Guess my arbitrary lazy wrothful son is going to rule by dread

When going to war for a claim, how is it determined whether your ruler takes ownership of a county title, or if it just vassalizes the current owner? Is it based on the type of claim, like a de Jure claim vassalizes while a manufactured claim conquers?

If they're someone else's claims you're pressing, it goes to them. If they're de-jure, then the person will become the vassal of their de-jure lord. If you're a king, then you'd get the duke as a vassal, but not the counties, etc.
