quote:Convince De Jure Territory (Steward): Convince other rulers to relinquish to you what is yours by De Jure right, or face diplomatic consequences. I'm not seeing any evidence of this in game. Do you need to be independent?

Louis the Stammerer died in my Barcelona run and his grandson inherited K of Aquitaine. I started an independence faction so I could take the kingdom of Aragon decision and even though I was the only member and my military difference wasn’t that much over 100%, he gave in without a fight, so that was pretty nice and unexpected. It was cool going through the first 45 years slowly introducing myself to the court mechanics as a vassal, and then finally holding court for myself after becoming an independent kingdom.

i have made PROFOUNDLY bad choices for my first post-expac campaign attempts: - 1066 minor muslim duchy in spain: holy lol thunderdome of competing alliances as catholicismtide creeps up your rear end. that said, it is a good tutorial in marrying diplomatically rather than optimizing congenital traits - 1066 georgia: much less of a struggle to gain territory than the minor muslim duchy! however, after conquering your immediate weak-rear end neighbors, your other neighbors are: the giant-rear end khanate of cumania, the seljuk turk empire, and the byzantine empire. sitting on your hands and upgrading defensive structures is, perhaps, a realistic historical experience of the georgian nation, but still. i should either just go do 860 vikings instead and deal with the long wait/painful feudalism transition before getting a court or just gently caress it and try india

Started as that Portugal guy to get the Portugal achievement. But then the dumbass had all daughters, and even though my daughter was matrinlinearly married all her kids weren't the same dynasty somehow? So she died and game over lol Got the achievement though.

The language/cultural tolerance system is now really nice because it allow you to institutionalize aspects of a multi ethnic/multi religious empire instead of just leaving it up to your failkids. Keeping the rubes overawed by your bling filled palace is also nice. Being at the borderlands of large multicultural groups now lets you pick and choose cultural aspects of each one. Making Baktria is gonna be so much fun.

I started a new game as Robert the Fox but I can't quite grasp the diverge culture/hybrid culture thing. I got a popup that says I can make a hybrid culture but it won't let me diverge it because I have no actual Norman counties, only a bunch of Sicilian and Lombard ones. Can I do a norman-sicilian hybrid even if I don't have a Norman county? Or do I have to first somehow convert one county to Norman? I'm working on saving the money to make the Kingdom of Sicily but it'll take a while yet, not even sure I'll manage before Robert croaks...

I mentioned it last night that I had an issue with vassals forming factions despite high relationship and today when I check the steam forums there are several people complaining about the same thing so there is obviously some kind of issue here. I saw someone here mentioning that they had someone constantly form a faction and then disbanding it, I have not seen that myself but several others on the steam forums mentioned it happening to them too. There is also an exploit that allows you to get out of being called into your ally's wars without taking a prestige hit but I will let Paradox figure that one out themselves because I am abusing the gently caress out of it

having never done a proper catholic playthrough of ck3 it's actually surprisingly fun. i managed to consolidate southern italy and malta, participated in a crusade that got my cousin on the throne of jerusalem, and now just kinda eyeing everyone up to see who i can start biting chunks out of with swords and wedding bands.

Depending on game settings it might also require both cultures to be old enough. The hybrid culture can choose cultural pillars, traditions and aesthetics from either parent culture, will gain all innovations known by either culture and will start with 100% Cultural Acceptance with both parents cultures. The cost of creating a hybrid culture decreases based on the current Cultural Acceptance between the two parent cultures. The size of the hybrid culture will depend on how much Cultural Acceptance has been built when creating the hybrid culture. The Promote Culture steward task will have its efficiency increased for a few years in counties belonging to either parent culture. By default hybrid cultures will be given the name of their parent cultures connected by a hyphen, though some hybrids have custom names by default. this second one seems like the Robert situation: his culture isn't the culture of the realm capital so he can't manually take the decision? In that case it'd just have a random chance to happen and would take random pillars from each culture? That doesn't sound ideal .. Anyway the plan is to consolidate southern Italy, become King and enjoy court shenanigans and trying to hoard artifacts like a dragon, while transitioning my culture to a peaceful diplomatic/courtly one so I can be a shining beacon of civility. And incest.

are you opening up the sicilian culture window to go hybrid? that might be the issue. the norman culture window will just let you diverge, you need to open the window of the other culture.

What's a fun start these days? I've done the larger viking factions, and 1066's Apulia (which seems much harder now?) and Ireland to death at this point. What's something that's not too hard to start but also allows for a fun bit of growth and decisions to pursue.

Eimi posted:Is the matrilineal ai fixed finally? My memory of trying to do any kind of enatic playthrough is just a nightmare of none of my vassals or heirs marrying matrilineally. It mostly works, it's certainly playable, you still may get people far down the line of succession marrying normally, or normal marriages between two members of the same dynasty (but different houses, which can cause your preferred house to not propagate).

Speaking of marriages, I wish they'd add a "not related" filter when looking for a spouse for your kid. It was getting really hard in my last game to find spouses that weren't a bit too cousin for comfort. I mean I guess that's on my own head, for having a faith with consorts and concubines so that everyone has a ton of kids. But like, when 90% of the marriage options are from your own dynasty, it'd be cool to have a filter to show only the not-too-closely related ones.

There is a filter to exclude your own dynasty. As for being related, if they don't share any parents or grandparents I wouldn't worry about it. Nuclear option: turn on the "no nobles" filter and bring in some fresh commoner blood.

pidan posted:There is a filter to exclude your own dynasty. Yes, I know, but part of the problem was that there were precious few if any candidates that weren't of my own dynasty (I think the 90% was probably an understatement). It was a very, very big dynasty, you see. So it would be nice to have an option to only see the dynasty members that aren't that closely related, in addition to the handful of petty nobles and lowborn. I did just end up marrying some second cousins a few times and it turned out okay, but, again, the option would be nice for when I just want to be sure.

Started my Mother of Us All run. OG Daurama died in her 40s, very unfortunately as she had 2 positive traits + Possessed so she was printing mad Piety and could possibly have reformed the faith if I'd managed to capture the other 2 holy sites. She did conquer enough to form a Queendom and become a Queen, so now I'm playing as the first daughter and she's set up to do well. I should be able to capture one of the other holy sites very shortly, and then I'll have to find a way to break my alliance with my half-brother, son of wasshisname the ruler that OG Daurama was married to at game start, whose father did very well and also formed a big kingdom of Kanem. I need to be Feudal to hold Court, so it'll be a minute before I get to interact with those mechanics. I did get a locket of my father's hair as a trinket, tho, and that's pretty fun.

I started as a Saxon lord in the 800 start. Ended up getting into an unwanted hell-war with the Norse and a few decades later I'm now King of Denmark. I figure I'll do a hybrid Saxon-Norse culture. What would be a good name for: 1) The culture 2) The Kingdom of Denmark, because it won't really be Denmark anymore at that point.
