NihilVerumNisiMors posted:Starting in Ireland was not the best idea when it comes to reforming the faith, I realized. INor Russia.  I'll just have to be happy with my massive blob that expands like a cancer, feeds rebellious Slavic chiefs to Odin once the subjugation opinion modifier wears off, and implodes every generation because the heir NEVER inherits Rurik's Quick trait and always has at least one sibling, uncle, or niece who can run circles around him. I still hate Gavelkind but at least it gives away coherent duchies most of the time now. Except when it gave the capital duchy (Novgorod/Holmgardr) to Rurik's brilliant granddaughter (who WOULD have been queen if rebels hadn't killed her dad and hosed up my plan) without any actual counties in Novgorod (which all went to the primary heir, Rurik's second son.) Of course, since that plan means she now holds the two richest duchies in Rus worth of actual land, I think that's really just the game telling me to switch to her, overthrow her uncle, and play the murderous hybrid of Catherine the Great and Asha Greyjoy eight hundred years early. Best DLC.

I'm pretty sure there actually are special death/maiming events for berserkers and they're just immune from the original ones (I vaguely recall seeing them in one of the oldgods_* event files during my last file dive) but like you said it would make a certain amount of sense if they were just flat-out invulnerable in battle.

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:A word of warning, though - some of those "aww, how precious" vassal wars can bite you in the rear end, not because they fail, but because they succeed. I just had one of my Dukes grab enough land to become the King of East Francia, and that would have made him independent had I not managed to form an Empire literally six months prior. You can't create titles that would make you independent from your current liege (on the other hand if they can create East Francia they have a semi-decent chance of winning an independence war which would be just as bad for you).

toasterwarrior posted:Does anyone know what to edit so I can assign women as army leaders? My last king had no sons so it defaulted to my badass warrior daughter, but gender bias during the Medieval Ages or not, I can't see a warrior queen not being allowed to lead her own drat army. Edit the requirements for the Marshal job in common/job_titles.txt - they also govern who can be appointed as an army leader. You can just remove the is_female = no to be simple about it. edit: beaten, but no, you can stick in whatever insane requirements you like if you understand the scripting properly. For example, my edits basically say "be male, or be a woman with 15 martial if your liege doesn't have Agnatic gender law, or be a woman with 12 martial if you're a ruler, have the brave trait, or are a member of one of these cultures, or be a woman who's had a Joan of Arc event I borrowed from Strudel Man happen to her".

Strudel Man posted:If you're not gay yourself, you get a relatively minor opinion malus with them. I did wonder what the effects were if you are. This loving game. They seem to think of everything. Strudel Man posted:On a related note, does anyone else feel that the delay between blots is too long? Nine years is a while when the nearest christian equivalent seems to be to the feast, which you can do every year, and especially when the effects of the blot (opinion bonus with vassals, increased morale) only lasts a single year. Yeah, I'd honestly wondered if there was some sort of MY VERSIMILITUDE explanation for that, or some weird conception of game balance. Blots are basically Feast++ and Norse are overpowered already, but on the other hand you have to be at peace to call one (which being Norse disincentivizes) and Norse are overpowered in the "taking territory" sense, not necessarily the "keeping vassals happy" sense, so I think nine years is probably a bit overkill. (or maybe I'm just creeped out by keeping my random neighbours in jail for eight years just in order to sacrifice the ones that survive.)

True, but the cool little touches in this DLC keep piling up (the runestone traits are a particular favourite) and I'm feeling effusive today. quote:It probably wouldn't be that hard to put in an alternate version that skips right to the post-blot feast part, really. Yeah, this is probably the best answer since Norse can't do ordinary feasts.

Any vassal or courtier with a low opinion is a potential plotter, but the more powerful a vassal they are the more plot power they potentially are to your enemies. This means that you need to keep powerful vassals, officeholders, and PARTICULARLY your spymaster happy if you don't want to end up dead in a manure explosion.

CK2+ seemed to save which modules I had turned on, but Girl Power doesn't seem to do this. I haven't downloaded Girl Power yet (shockingly), but the "save mods/DLC choices in the launcher" behaviour is controlled by a file in the main settings directory. If it has its own settings/save games directory (like, for example, Game of Thrones) then it won't stick like CK2+ does.

For people using the new CK2+: I think I've figured out why, for example, Byzantium is using the HRE flag. The flag for the duchy of Podlasia is apparently missing from the package, so everything that comes after it is off-by-one. To fix it you just need to put in a flag for d_podlasie: I used vanilla's c_podlasie.tga, renamed it, and stuck it in the CK2+ flag directory as d_podlasie.tga, and all is now right with the world.

Is anyone using CK2+ and Better Armies running into some weirdness with the Seljuk invasion around 1000? The event fires, but the Seljuks don't declare war for some reason and the doomstacks just sit there. I'm playing Zoroastrian Persia so I'm semi-thankful for the reprieve but I don't think this is supposed to happen. (also the event spawns two more of the Seljuk stacks and gives them to Cumania, which makes a certain bizarre sense but which I also don't believe is intended.)

(re invader tags not actually invading in CK2+)Flippycunt posted:I know there was a vanilla bug that made this happen in the 1.10 patch with certain hordes (happened to me with the Aztecs). I couldn't figure out how to fix it, and I assumed Paradox took care of it. I dunno man. I actually fixed this (well, the Paradox forums gave me the idea) - the problem is that the CK2+ Tribal Invasion CB requires you to neighbour the target or have a province in the same de jure kingdom, so when event invaders who don't have any land try to use it, it sputters and fails. Answer here is to either a) auto-give the event invaders a territory (which the forums suggested to that guy doing CK2+ bugfixes while Wiz is on vacation) or stick an exception in the tribal invasion CB (similar to the exception for landless mercenaries) allowing landless invader tags to use it. I did the latter on my copy since I kinda hate the auto-gifting land mechanic, and now the Seljuks arrive and attack as normal. ...oh god what have I done.

jpmeyer posted:2) Because Persia is so landlocked, the levy grouping aspect is more important. I frequently would frequently start at a disadvantage against the caliph and the Seljuks in wars for example. Huge bulks of my troops are months away so their doomstacks would pick off my small stacks before they could regroup, etc. This is the big reason. Until you've played in Persia you have no goddamn idea how infuriating it is to take literal months to gather your forces (especially since the Ilkhanate, Timurids and now Seljuks start up right in your grill and actually seem to move their horse-archer doomstacks faster than you can move levies.). Being able to liege-levy Khwarazim (the worst offender by far because the Caspian ports don't work) is a godsend, and I actually refused to play in that part of the world until they introduced it.

If the war has already started, you can still kill one of your target, King Harald, or (possibly) either of the couple whose marriage is allying them, and the alliance will cease to be a problem. Another alternative: mercenaries. Bloodly posted:Tech system's changed. Councillors don't improve the capital anymore since you spend tech points in the capital to improve it there(At Duke level or above). Councillors improve tech spread.

Maybe only for de-jure vassals under high crown authority, or something like that. I normally save-edit to do this (at least for vassal titles I create and hand out) but it would be awesome if AIs were a little more likely to adapt inheritance laws that matched their liege. It probably wouldn't take much more than editing the AI likelihood sections of the decisions.
