Does promoting Christian settlements prevents Hungary from taking the convert back to taltoism decision?

kiss me Pikachu posted:Basically is there anything worth building province wise before settling down or should I build a big war chest to build up after I change over? The tribal economy building pays for itself in 25ish years, so if you're unlikely to get a feudal liege and you've got a lot of tribal tech left then they're a very good investment. The army buildings are a bit harder to gauge, but they're very good for the price. Tribal buildings mostly cost prestige, which seems very intentional to encourage you to spend on them. In general, don't underestimate the long-term value of being strong now rather than in 50 years. Having 10 extra knights at +100% power plus 1500 extra levies because you built Warrior Lodges gives you the ability to win a lot of civil wars and beat up a lot of rival kings before you go feudal.

First time player here, my only experience is playing the tutorial both here and in CK2, any opening tips for the recommended emirate start in 1066 Iberia?

well some dickhead jarl took over Connacht and now I'm left pondering if I can just invade, siege, and enforce demands before reinforcements arrive from across the North Sea. It's just some kid with a whopping 229 in levies. It would also give me the 7th county I need to create the title for Kingdom of Ireland (although I'll have to wait a while for the necessary gold).

What are people's strategies for handing out new territories? In CK2 my go to strat was usually splitty up a duchy, so the duke gets 1 country + the duke title, with each county going to a different person who doesn't have any titles. This made sure the vassals were individually small and prevented them lumping up to challenge me in civil wars. I notice that when I do this in CK3, the duke is pissed off at me because he desires the county of x, y and z. Is it better to just give the entire duchy to one guy?

I love it when a plan comes together. After winning independence from the King of Alba, I can then form an independent kingdom and use the subjugate CB to take Alba from him. He's at war with Sweden for some reason, so I take advantage of the situation and take the entire Kingdom from him. Now I'm in great position to take the rest of Britannia. Of course, during this time, I find out my soulmate wife has been sleeping with my son. Well, can't have it all, I guess. I might destroy my created kingdom title so there's not a bunch of fighting when my two sons get overlapping kingdoms.

It's because you're still holding the vassals that have the county titles. If you give the new duke the vassals he'll stop being upset about that. (And the county holders stop having the "You're not their de jure liege" penalty.) Hyper Crab Tank fucked around with this message at 17:45 on Sep 6, 2020 |

Azuren posted:So I'm working my way through Tutorial Island, and I'm wondering how to best organize my titles and family. Everything inside my capital's duchy I own personally, and everything outside of it I've been granting a single county each to a new vassal. So far, all of my new vassals have been close family members, and often my council members. My goal is to have nice pretty stable clean de jure borders: I want to end up a king who personally owns all of a duchy, and my direct vassals are dukes of a single duchy with their capital in the de jure capital, who have under them counts of a single county, so that power isn't centralized enough for anyone to become a threat. I'm imagining that I'm just being a noob and this is all going to explode horribly as soon as I die and succession happens Is this the gist of what I want to do? Do I want my vassals to be my family members, or does that make them more of a threat, and I should be using non-family members? So far I've made sure all my new vassals that I hand titles out to don't have any land or claims. this is all a pretty good idea. making sure your vassals themselves have a lot of vassals absolutely dilutes their power base and makes them less capable of rising against you it's ok to use dynasts as vassals, but it's better to put dynasts in charge of other independent realms if you can spin those off. in game terms you get scored by having the largest dynasty possible and so if your third cousin is a king next door, doing his own thing, that still helps you (as long as you are the dynasty head). if you need to land some good courtiers though to have good vassals then dynasts are fine

Someone in the thread earlier mentioned that the 'Station Besiegers' button loving leaves behind men-at-arms instead of levy forces. I checked and yeah. That is pretty loving bad, the group of besiegers it left behind was -purely- Man-at-arms. So if you use it a lot your army's spearhead is just going to be garbage levy units, while the actually skilled units will be doing gently caress all. If there's a chance of combat you're probably way better off just splitting the army instead, that way you won't be commanding a peasant army after 2-3 siege dropoffs. It makes me wish there was a 'split off Levy / man at arms' forces button, so that I could atleast manage that better. e: It makes me wonder if they did it just to make it so that the siege man-at-arms units would be left at sieges, and didn't care/notice that it just dropped off Men-at-arms in general. (Or maybe it was a 'good enough for launch' situation, where they'll be going over things with a finer brush after launch.) SubNat fucked around with this message at 18:16 on Sep 6, 2020 |

ilitarist posted:So how does technological exposure works? You only get one exposure at a time, yeah. Whether you should be fascinated with the same thing depends on your goal and your ruler’s learning. Each tech has a 5% chance or advancing each month. Exposure gives a 40% bonus to chance if making progress each month. Fascination gives a bonus based on your ruler’s learning. If your learning is high enough you can get to 100% chance of advancing just from your fascination. In that case you’re wasting the bonus from exposure, but sometimes you really want a certain tech ASAP.

Ok I managed to declare myself the King of Ireland. I control most of the counties in the center but I haven't made the Duchy titles yet for Connacht or Leinster. I vassalized the 3 Ulster counties, but there's one ruler each, and no Ulster Duchy. How should I prioritize the order that I create the duchies? I'm a little concerned since I'm getting up there in age and trying to figure out how not to leave a huge mess behind for the, err, [i]three/i] heirs I have. For duchies I don't intend on holding, what's the best way to grant vassal titles? 1 vassal for all three counties? 3 vassals, one for each county, and one of them gets the duchy title?

Does anybody have any suggestions for rulers with extremely high intrigue to start that are like 40 or younger? I was doing the Ivar start in 867 and between him (low 20s intrigue), his wife (+12) and a halfway decent spymaster I was pulling 95%/95%/11 month assassinations. But he starts off too old, before I could finish a single tree (even after getting a few extras via events) he kicks the bucket. I suppose alternatively I could just carefully engineer to have an intrigue-based heir and knock off a few less useful sons.

He's also loving his sister and if he dies without an heir you get to play as Castille and inherit all of Leon. It's basically failproof!

I had a pretty good intrigue run with Holland. You can't actually do any intrigue because blackmail stresses the gently caress out of your starting ruler, but you have a sister with 11 or something and with a little luck it's pretty easy to build a heir with high intrigue. Once they're in power you can stab your way through the entire continent. I took out so many rulers of the holy roman empire that the crusades never started because once someone inherited the throne their shelf life was approximately 11 months. No one ever called me out on it either, which is good because my army size was pitiful and I was being a prick to some really powerful alliances.
