I'm annoyed by my vassals seemingly complete incapability to handle peasant rebellions. Is there any way for me to help out as a ruler other than keeping an eye on them at all times and offer to join war?

 Ya this is broken. This crusade will never be over unless I just give it to them. Either occupying counties should have a higher cap, troops replenish a lot slower, or battles won and lost score should decay over time. Theres no way in hell I can overcome a 250% score with the friendly AI just throwing tiny 5k stacks into the fray every 3 months to get slaughtered by enemy 60k stacks wandering the country side.

Enjoying the perk system, it adds cool layers to doing stuff, but honestly I also find it frustratingly slow. Experience gain could probably stand to be even twice as fast. As it is, you're only likely to max out two trees in a life. Or I wouldn't be opposed to being able to pass on a few perk points in your specced trees to your heir instead, maybe tied to your learning stat.

As far as I can tell there is no objective other than "England" which i control most of. Or at least I did until a new 60k stack showed up a year or 2 after I wiped the last one off the island. I control the land of guy who is proclaimed the king of england and its still saying 0% of the objectives controlled. Hell I even own Toledo which is the ruler home duchy.

Partition seems weird with vassals. They still stick all their poo poo together it just partitions the counties instead of the duchies. Even if I grant 2 kingdoms to a vassal, each kid doesn't get one. That seems to go against the point of Partitioning...

For ticking warscore, control needs to be absolute, which means either the attacker needs to occupy every holding in the target, or they need to be controlling no holdings in the target. The former will give ticking warscore to the attacker, the latter to the defender. "Most" isn't good enough to count for ticking warscore.

Wish Tanistry was a bit more... I dunno, clear? Less janky? Firstly everybody else votes for anything but your choice it seems. Second is if you hook somebody into voting your way the hook will eventually expire so it hardly matters unless you are on death's doorstep Also it feels a little glitchy in that sometimes the vote switches for a split second and goes back before you have time to see what changed. Happens so often I stopped paying attention to it, confident of my chosen heir's chances Minutes after reuniting Britiannia and forming an empire my guy dies, I become my lovely grandson who was just about the worst choice. Owns one dutchy and only inherits the empire title. Meanwhile he has an uncle with an amazing seat of powerful irish holdings, 2 kingdom titles and 66 vassals while I have like 12 vassals in north Scotland. Why on earth would a tanistry think the 19 year old was their guy? Ah well guess I cant have my way all the time. Keeps things interesting I suppose.

My second game, starting as Bohemia, is off to a much rougher start. Probably because I keep doing dumb poo poo like raiding immediately and getting my whole army killed. Converting to Catholicism at the first whiff of a holy war is good, though. I didn't have much uses for piety in my last game, and now I can use it to beg the pope for money.

I dont think thats completely true, and if it is thats also why this will never end as its an impossible task and needs to be changed. This war will never go beyond 50% for the Pope's side when the enemy can just replenish 60,000 troops in a year or less.

The trees are so strong that they can basically define the playstyle of the character you're playing as, so I think keeping them somewhat sparse spices things up a bit.

If you get a good education you start with perk points filled in. There are also mechanics that directly or indirectly increase the number of points you'll get as the game continues: realm building buffs, holy sites, splendor buffs, education buffs, health buffs, etc. Most of those are pretty limited -- excepting education, anyhow -- which I'm pretty sure is a very intentional choice to force you to distinguish your characters. My current Maximum Chivalry italian boy king plays differently from my Maximum Strategy african warrior queen, but if they perked up significantly faster they'd just end up sort of the same type of Maximum Military character and wouldn't feel as distinct. As is the pace is such that you only rarely get to finish a tree and when you do you know you have a character that's legendarily good at that lifestyle, which seems a reasonable if rough balance goal. It's always hard in this sort of free talent tree system to manage each character being distinct vs each point being distinct vs a feeling of progression happening. I'm not saying the current state is perfect or anything, but I don't think you could speed up (or slow down) the lifestyle experience gain significantly without losing a lot of distinction given the current breadth of choices.

DurosKlav posted:I am thinking there needs to be a bit more penalty for being in debt. I'm in a Crusade against a dude with 60k troops. Before he died he was at like 20k in debt but still had a giant army roaming around that was near unbeatable with the new AI. Eventually I managed to wipe two of his smaller stacks and start a chain of wins against him, but my fellow crusaders AI eventually hosed me over as even after multiple battles of 10k losses the enemy still has a fresh new stack of 30k roaming around. I just dont see this crusade ever ending. I noticed when hiring mercenaries it was on a three year contract which seemed crazy to me, game play wise and historically. They should be a monthly drain on finances like in CK2.

867 start in Leinster as my first ironman game to learn the differences from CK2 better. Invaded and de-landed in the first five years by a viking invasion. Start over and realize my character has different stats, learning, etc. That's kinda fun. I take a gamble about 10 years in and roll the 20% chance to die. His 16 year old son inherits the two counties I have and has rolled Grey Eminence so I decide to see how strong the Diplomacy - Family tree is, four wives and a lifetime of friends means I should have pretty good stats once I get a few of the perks. The man dies in his mid 70's with no stats below 14 and diplomacy & learning almost at 30. He's the king of Ireland and all his vassals love him. I had his sons be champions and die off so that his grandson can inherit. We'll see how it goes. I will note that befriending people, and the perk below it, is incredibly powerful. With even a modicum of diplomacy you're able to keep all your direct vassals in line and -5% stress gain per friend doesn't go away when the friend dies so as long as you befriend 20 people total you won't ever gain stress. As a note having lots of kids means you can befriend each of them as well. It was actually a touching thing when I got the popup saying that my primary wife died and the confirmation button said I gained 0 stress. I could easily picture this old man comforted by his many lifelong friends and large family at the wake. Hipster Occultist posted:As if one of my sons wouldn't be a warrior like his father, and his father before him, and so on. For shame! There are several perks that are almost necessary for doing certain larger things. The middle learning tree gives a trait that increases development growth by 15% and one of the learning focuses does the same, so if you've got a learning ruler you can make massive gains to development in your demense in relatively short time, not to mention that learning increases the benefit to your fascination innovation gain.

As a duke I'm trying to get in good with my liege. He keeps starting holy wars but when I try to offer to join I can't accept because he's "not defending my faith in this holy war", even though we're both Russian Orthodox. My wife and parents are also Orthodox. What gives?

I think that's mostly a balance thing. Holy war is a very strong cassus belli that doesn't require any diplomatic shenanigans and lets you to grab entire duchies and counties at low tech levels, so to compensate they are dangerous and you usually can't be sure how much opposition there will be. There are great holy wars (crusades and jihads) where anyone of the right religion can join in the pile-on. They give the spoils to whoever contributes the most, which would be a very annoying mechanic if it was ported to less-great holy wars and the Byzantines began "helping" by snatching every little Tengri county out from under your nose.

I like the dynasty perks that gives you better guests, at least in the earlygame or for smaller realms, but I kinda think it would be better if it gave you a decision like with the champion invites to put out a call for experts. It's too easy to forget when you have guests.

stewardship tree is the one true tree. Right side stabilizes your vassals & councilors who actually matter. The rest gives you loving $$$$$$$$ Money wins all wars. Max all holdings. Buy all men at arms. really is a kick in the dick though when when your next ruler doesn't get all those mad stats, have to dial back the men at arms until you can build your heir up again.

A feature I wish they'd add is if you're trying to make a match and you get the "they are related and might have inbred kids!" you could click the warning and have it show you who their nearest common ancestor is. 90% of the time it's a total mystery to me how they're related when I get that warning.

I really like the perk tree balance in general, almost all of them feel distinct, flavorful and useful for something. Chivalry makes my bravely naive boy king with 40 advantage not die when commanding, and ups my Knightly Power from about 1500 levies worth of murder to 4000 levies worth of murder, which is a big deal when my actual levy count hovers around 2000 without mercs. Likewise, my 31 intrigue all-Scheme king basically won a war at 5:1 odds by stabbing two sultans/year until Iberia mostly ran out of sultans. I think he died with a little over a dozen murder secrets, and I only stayed that low because I was a little hesitant to stab Orthodox people since someone important might care. Could I have survived those situations in other ways? Sure. Will Chivalry be as big a deal when it's 1200, the age of knights is over and I'm the emperor of rome? Probably not. That's all fine though.

What do you guys invest in first when building up the realm? Walls for your castles, definitely the first pick, but what comes after that? Cash? Troops? Cash and troops?

So this looks pretty bad: In this election, my vassals are voting for this Donal guy. Now if I were to die tomorrow and this guy was to become King, then I would lose six titles because they will go to my current son. That's bad right? Like I shouldn't let that happen and I should do everything I can to make sure my Prince is my heir, right? In retrospect, I'm not sure why that Issue told me to change how the heir is decided. Seems like this is doing more harm than good.....

Walls don't matter if you can screen enemies away from your city with troops. I usually build gold production buildings then troops, although you can give your empire a boost by building gold production buildings in your vassal's lands too, as long as you have a good relationship with them.
