You can rename titles at will, there's a little feather pen icon thing in the top left if you click on the title itself. No idea how that collides with the Islamic dynasty naming stuff though.

Specifically it happens if you are (a) a clan government and (b) the head of your dynasty. In this case your primary title gets your dynasty name. At least, that's according to the wiki.

How do I avoid the situation where my current heir isn’t part of my dynasty? This seems to happen every time I convert to a custom religion with equal gender laws/norms. It’s pretty frustrating and I can’t really tell where along the line I made the “mistake” of proposing a marriage which would result in a non dynasty heir.

It happened to me when I made my faith equal gender laws, and my first daughter was normal married. If you want your faith to be equal then you really have to be on top of your kids. This has to be the best attempt at painting a realm in this game so far.

Dareon posted:So one thing I like to do regarding historical games is learn interesting trivia about the times and places. That, coupled with the ineffable youtube algorithms, gave me the recommendation for the channel Tasting History, where a dude makes a recipe from an old cookbook and tells you a bit about the history around the recipe. Some of them seem pretty tasty, others... less so. This was from a few pages back but I started watching this guy's videos and they're pretty cool. Thanks!

Having messed around with equal and female dominated I would have to say that at the moment they just aren't worth it. Even if you stay completely on top of your own heirs, your AI vassals will continue to make terrible marriages potentially losing lands to other kingdoms. Luckily the AI is terrible at making marriages in general. Marriage AI is one of the things I hope they fix with the first patch, that way there will be more sexy sterile grandmas for me.

I do hope one of the future patches does something about the music situation. I do like it, and the context sensitive feature is cool, but I do miss some of the tracks that really grab out at you from CK2, and looking at the soundtrack playlist on youtube, there's a lot of good content I don't even hear, which is a shame. The tracks that turn up as a result of an event could hang around longer too, so I can listen to them for more than a few seconds.

I somehow am only now encountering my first truly infuriating partition succession issue. For some reason the game has decided it must allocate all-except-one county to my son, who I have gone so far as to make an independent king. He doesn't need more titles god drat it. e: oh god, and now that it's happened, he apparently has a strong hook on me because I am a witch. Witchcraft is allowed under our religion so I don't know what that's all about, but I can't even declare war on him! e2: The Swedes have the Elephantry institution somehow...

Was just a sterile six year old. Survived a civil war by choicely marrying off my bastard brother to the princess of Sweden. My heir was in another dynasty though, so I wound up studying intrigue just to pull off the murders needed to get my inheritance back in my name. Stated at a calendar waiting for my 16th birthday before I could I kick off the murder scheme. I turn 16. I hit the murder button and have a 30% chance. And the next day my two non dynasty heirs are killed in a siege. My little sterile boy king is blessed by god

Seriously is there any way to clear someone having a strong hook on you? I would be happy to expose my own secret he's apparently used to blackmail me if I could, but that does seem to be an option? Because there seems to be absolutely nothing I can do to retake the counties he got thanks to that, and that's dumb as hell. I'll even give him his Kingdom title back that he lost due to his own incompetency!

I've also seen Krete go nuts a couple of times. Once when I wasn't paying attention it grabbed half of anatolia and drat near all of egypt. It must be because it has a Kingdom title, right? OTOH I don't usually see Cyprus get so crazy as often. Maybe Cyprus is big enough to have internal politics while Krete is small enough that whoever holds it can expand at their leisure? One of the two or three times the Mighty Minoans Revival happened I had turned Krete into a kingdom-level merchant republic and so a shocking huge section of the map was suddenly republican, that was fun. Anyway I don't mind it actually because I lived for half a year near Chania so Krete inexplicably blobbing always makes me smile. Good on you, Krete!

The more I play the 867 scenario the more I'm convinced the rules for the tribal era are completely broken. Even if you manage to play a line of geniuses from start to finish, it is literally impossible to start as a tribe, feudalize, and reach parity with the 1066 starting position before 1100. Meanwhile the border gore is absolutely out of control. Here we see West Francia having figured out the One Weird Trick of giving all it's kingdom titles their own succession laws so they never get partitioned, meanwhile I don't even want to know what happened to England.

Playing the tutorial. My idiot son Brian went to a dueling spree because he wanted to be a blademaster. He went dueling while wounded. Well then some dude beat him and he went to severely wounded, then dead. RIP. At least he had two very young children and I have one child too so things could be worse.

It's not the worst, because usually when I play the tutorial I try to skip over Brian and make a new heir with better qualities. My ideal succession is King to Grandson, with them hopefully already of age.

Witchcraft is allowed under our religion so I don't know what that's all about, but I can't even declare war on him! I think this happens if you are a witch before it becomes legal (either because you converted to a religion where it is allowed or the religion was reformed). Logically you'd think that once it's legal you would automatically stop keeping it a secret and get the witch trait, but that doesn't seem to happen, it only happens if you become a witch after it is considered allowed. So the game just keeps considering it a secret that gives people a strong hook on you. I'm assuming it's a bug, because I can't see that working as intended. If you participate in a feast you can also get the event where you accidentally reveal your witchcraft practicing ways and give them a hook on you that way, even though both follow a religion that allows witchcraft. I hope it gets fixed in the next patch.

Great. I actually don't know how to play this game though. I granted Athlone and Dublin to Brian's daughter (so my granddaughter) for some reason. I made duchy of Meath but seems I can't grant it to my granddaughter because I need to be the king of Ireland first.. and I need 500 gold for that. Maybe it is not a good idea to give land and titles to a daughter but whatever this is a tutorial. It will take 4½ years to save money to form Ireland. Man I want to make money faster.. but improvements are also super expensive. Ihmemies fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Sep 26, 2020 |

Can you go fight some scrubs without breaking your bank paying troops? Ransoms from prisoners are ok. Better is the Wealth focus lifestyle, which is a straight +10% income bonus. The first perk in the tree let's you demand (large amounts of) money for hooks, which can be obtained by using your spymaster to search for secrets and blackmailing people. Also in that tree is Extort Subjects which is very good if you need cash.

Keep an eye on the top right number, that’s your domain limit. If you’re at 1/6 or 2/5, you might want to consider solidifying your position and holding them all directly. The knock on benefit is that you get more levies, gold, and prestige. Once you are High King, you can hand out dukedoms no problem, but before then if any of your vassals get enough money or army they will come after independence so they can create their title, should they own the de jure territory for the title.
