I guess they did have weird animal abusing stalkers 1000 years ago. There is an event when walking your dog if you have a rival, and it's something like a 40% chance to kill your dog. Always choose the option to chase, since it makes it a little less likely for the dog to die.

Just had an empire fall apart thanks to mucking around with elective. Amusingly, ended up accidentally getting Dynasty of Many Crowns from the fallout (kind of fun watching everything shatter, and since I retain my retinues, can be pretty powerful for the few years before I run out of money). That said, am curious as to the proper pre-Primogeniture kingdom and empire inheritance management strategy. Is it possible to hold _two_ duchies before Primogeniture? My original plan: Only one "top tier title" (e.g. one kingdom or one empire). Make sure to be on Partition, not Confederate Partition -- don't want the new titles to be created. This worked well but would result in some of the counties within my demense being given away unless I managed to conquer sufficient additional land to give to kids. And I could never hold more than one duchy through succession. This got harder as I went up to emperor as now I needed to conquer _additional kingdoms_ to give away to kids to avoid getting my demense split. And having to conquer again each generation. Kingdoms aren't that easy to come by. I am aware that elective succession is weird in that if you have at least two elective succession titles, you inherit _everything_ underneath your primary title -- it's somehow protected from partition. I don't really understand what's going on here or why it's protected though. In any case, I fatefully created an additional empire title (Francia) and set it and my original empire title (Valois, a custom empire -- speaking of which, are custom empires a trap choice? you basically can't diplovassalize into them, right? since they have no de jure land outside what you create the empire with) to elective. But, with my Empress at 79 and fighting a crusade and a peasant rebellion, I got the dreaded "Primary Heir not of your Dynasty" message. It's hard to manage elective across two pretty big empires -- and since I had been on one empire (Valois) for most of the game, there were 8 electors on my primary title that I could not get to agree. I hadn't done any groundwork in getting hooks on them beforehand either. It feels like juggling multiple empires on elective is ... a challenge. Long story short, I tried changing my primary empire (to Francia), destroying my original empire (Valois), creating another empire title (Germania), and then realizing, to my horror, that you can't add Elective to an empire title if you're war. Furiously put down the peasant rebellion (finding where the peasant rebellion leader is and trying to capture him by stack wiping him seems to work really well) and had the defensive crusade at 99% only to have the Empress die with one empire on elective and the other on partition and ... myself getting the smaller empire:  Francia and Germania were all one empire once I did end up losing my entire building-upgraded duchy (Duchy of Valois, which I guess went to Germania since it was de jure part of the Valois custom empire 'cept I had destoryed that... I thought it would have gone to Francia not sure why it went to Germania instead) but kept my retinue and had a small pile of gold. I quickly reconquered my duchy before running out of money and am now attempting to stabilize, but I'm down to one empire title that's set to elective, and am down to one duchy with all my counties. If my current 8 yo girl survives and has more than one kid, I'm going to run into partition issues again. I love how Ironman CK3 just generates these amazing stories and how losing is fun  (Note to self: swapping to Equal succession via religion before Primogeniture just makes Partition so much worse) (Also learned that founding a second religion to slightly change some tenets [and try out no head of faith for extra temple $$, as outlined in this reddit post (not sure if still current, since it's a year old, but it did seem like it boosted my income significantly)] after founding one originally and having mended the great schism with the first religion... means that your new religion is now crusade-able by your old religion) (Another fun thing I learned was when you conquer Iberia and hybridize with Andalusian to become Iberian... you get an option to form Portugal which swaps you to Portugese culture, but it only has 3 traditions :-/ had to slowly hybridize back -- am now Greco-Portugese and waiting for the 50 year hybrid cooldown to hybridize with my Andalusian-Norse-Frankish culture. Feels like the powergamey play is to hybridize, and while waiting for the 50 years to hybridize again, reform once or twice, replacing or adding in a tenet or changing the Martial custom to Equal) What am I missing in terms of how to hold together a core set of counties in a primary duchy (and maybe a second duchy) when dealing with the Kingdom / Empire level before Primogeniture is available? Here's the current state of the world (I control the duchy of Valois in Francia, which is just southeast of the Valois in France, which I think is the old custom kingdom I originally created long ago that I guess split off from Germania as things shattered), bordergore content warning:  alcaras fucked around with this message at 08:10 on Feb 18, 2022 |

Yeah, take your first duchy, own all the counties in it, and slap some sort of elective on it. Since that now has a seperate succession law, your Primary heir should pick up the second duchy as their first allotted duchy level title. Putting elective on the second one also works.

100%. Tier doesn't matter, works with King or Emperor. The only thing I'm not certain about is whether it matters if the top level is elective, but I don't think it matters.

Thanks -- so basically put elective on the two duchies you want to keep. e.g. Is this right? I own Duchy A and Duchy B. Both are elective. I also own Empire A and Kingdom A. Both of those are Partition. At inheritance, so long as my primary heir (or designatedheir , under absolute crown authority) is the winning candidate for Duchy A and Duchy B, my heir get Duchy A, with all its counties, Duchy B, also with all its counties, and Empire A, and Kingdom A. Everything apart from that will be partitioned out to everyone else. I think my mistake then was trying elective at the Kingdom or Empire level, where it's way harder to control, unlike duchies where you can simply own every county.

 First of all, this guy is an absolute monster. He's researched 4 cultural techs from scratch, and doesn't seem to be stopping. Secondly, having a tier 10 court is both stupidly easy to maintain, and is ridiculously overpowered. +48 opinion with everyone as a king? Even people I invade or imprison still have 80-100 opinion with me. I also seem to remember them showing us, that you could rebuild or modify your court, or at least rooms connected to it, ending up with a maze people could get lost in or whatever. So far it's been nothing but extremely minor court events, and I've sort of stopped paying attention to them for mostly wasting my time.

The thing to do to keep everything (2 duchies + all counties inside of them) with High Partition is to create lots of "useless" titles for your non-primary heirs to inherit. As an emperor create all the kingdoms that you can and keep them. With High Partition your primary heir will get your 2 duchies + everything in them and your other heirs get a kingdom each. That is how I have managed to keep my empire together this whole time. If I were to switch to elective I can keep the duchies but I lose the counties inside of them. Edit: Make your own religion and chose "Lay Clergy", it makes you able to hold temples/churches yourself. It is incredibly powerful since you can now make a single very powerful county if you have the slots for it. That way you don't have to worry about who gets what during early successions as you will always keep that one. TjyvTompa fucked around with this message at 12:05 on Feb 18, 2022 |

Yeah, would love "artifact sets" to be able to swap around to -Short Reign when there's a new ruler or +appropriate Lifestyle XP based on whatever Lifestyle I'm pursuing. And +1 to deleting, selling, etc. some way to get them out of inventory. Gift works but is pretty slow and just has them in a giant list and you have to go to the person you want to Gift and can't gift off the context menu for the Artifact, because weirdly, Artifacts have no context menu. (Practically this means remembering "It's the Blue Magnificent Tapestry that I want to get rid of"). Moral of the story I guess is gift away useless artifacts as soon as you get them! More UI weirdness, going to the Artifact details page, seeing who has a claim, opening the context menu on the claimant and choosing Gift Artifact... picks some random other artifact to gift, which I have to manually change, rather than the artifact I'm looking at! Why? You can't even see which artifacts are equipped or not in the gift menu   Despite right clicking on Markos here and choosing Gift Artifact, the Warbanner was the default selection, not the Brooch I want to get rid of! I then have to painfully scroll the list and find the brooch As did this I realize I selected the WRONG de Couchy Brooch and gave away the one I was using because the name and icon were identical but the tooltips were different and I didn't even realize I had two identically named ones so I didn't check the tooltip argh. And you have to do this one at a time with unpauses since if you gift to the same person they have to consider the request. There's also no item compare tooltip so you have to swap between both items and remember what their properties were Also a weird bug: You can gift the same artifact to different people and get the opinion bonus from all of them, though only the last person gets the actual artifact. alcaras fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Feb 18, 2022 |

Alternatively, die; this wipes your debt. Well the problem is that they’re big rebellions, usually 100%-150% faction strength, 2-3 at a time. Allies help, but I can’t really afford to raise small armies like I would for a simple peasant revolt. By the time I get through one of these I’m usually 5-10 years in debt, and I can’t ransom vassals since I’m going for white peace. Dying helps, but then you get the requisite massive factions springing up on succession and it starts all over again. I’m thinking next run I’ll wait longer to go feudal and reform the faith (I was playing Rurik) so I can raid my way out of some of these until I get stable. Or maybe I won’t subjugate Khazaria at the first opportunity lol.

Well if there's two to three just let them fight each other  But yeah you might have just expanded farther than your resources allow. Liberty Revolts can generally be surrendered too because boosting it back up later is trivial, but if you're just completely underwater let Partition separate the realm and have some of those guys be your brother's problems.
