Slowly realizing this DLC is more war based than I had originally thought. As someone who hate hate HATES the war mechanics in these games, how the gently caress do I do anything war related? I'm tired of reading the Relm screen for the opponent's levy size only to have a loving large as doom stack conquer me. I was playing as a Zoroastrian before I rage-quit.

The Moon Monster posted:How interesting is playing as a Zoroastrian? I've always liked saying Zoroastrian. I wouldn't know, I keep getting swarmed by all the Muslims around me. I'm really starting to regret this purchase. I usually have fun with this game but somehow... I'm getting really angry at this game now, even just Alt-F4ing in the middle of it.

Demiurge4 posted:So Wiz's CK2+ thread on the Paradox forum says its compatible with all DLC, I take it it's not actually compatible with Old Gods and he just hasn't gotten around to updating it yet? The DLC literally came out yesterday. And considering that he now works for PDX give it a week or two.

Okay, so the Pagan religion in Ruler Designer isn't set for holy sites, making it CTD if you check the religion tab. There goes another Irish pagan ruler.

Darkrenown posted:"Prepared Invasion" via diplomacy with a non-pagan. Is that playing as a non-pagan or are the West African pagans not counted as pagans for the Prepared Invasion? I'm trying to prepare an invasion on the Muslims in the North, starts with a U. I can't even siege their places with my own men and no mercenaries to help either.

Are the West African Pagans incapable of doing planned invasions? Because I can't seem to find the button on the diplomacy screen. All I can do is one county conquests that I can't even fathom to win with the doomstacks these Muslims are throwing at me.

With 2 years of DLC hopefully well see something that expands on your court and their abilities (maybe some events for them too).

If I hadn't started a new game with the Girl Power mod. Also, I'm pretty sure I'm just going to kill off my super-viking's sons right now since my first-born daughter inherited both his genius and naturally high martial skill. Is it possible to add a secret choice to an event message? I kinda want to add one to the "Your child asks where babies come from." event so you can answer "The battlefield." if you have the "Born on the Battlefield" trait.

What are you talking about, Ireland is always perfect for every type of game. I've won as a Christian, a Muslim, a merchant and once I beat this game, a pagan.

Playing as an unlanded character would be great for a Romani DLC. You could travel across Europe with your caravan and tribesmen and battle counts and dukes who want you out of their land. Maybe you could even take the land from them and start your own Romani empire.

Cease to Hope posted:None of these grand unlanded character things sound very much like CK2. Don't pull the "It's called Europa Universalis" card here. We can already play as Muslims and Pagans (and pretty soon, Jews as well) so I think Crusader Kings has already strayed from it's original intent.

So I just got a new computer today (yay Christmas) and I'm slowly reinstalling my Steam games. However, for some reason CKII won't show any of my DLC anymore. It says I bought them but the launcher comes up blank. It's a new computer and a fresh install of CKII (twice even because I tried to follow someone else's solution to no avail) but I can't figure out why I can't use any of my DLC.

AdjectiveNoun posted:This happened to me, and though I have a mac, so the situation might be different, I solved it by checking CK II's Properties in Steam (Right-Click it in your library and a menu will show up, Properties is at the bottom), and de-selecting 'Enable Steam Community In-Game'. Hope that works for you. Nah, I got Windows 8 (). People keep saying to download old DirectX updates (which I can't do since my version is already better) or do a complete reinstall of Steam and CKII but that doesn't help either. Hell, most of the time people seem to just have the problem magically correct itself. I'm starting to suspect it might be the Norton Internet Security trial that's blocking it somehow but I can't figure out where the hell to go to exempt Steam from being blocked.

Oh what do you know, I can't even run the game. I hit "Start Game" and it never starts up. EDIT: I had to manually update DirectX with patches from 2009 in order to get it to work. gently caress Windows 8. GenderSelectScreen fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Dec 25, 2013 |

Eimi posted:After playing around with Ck2+ I wish a mod like Ancient Religions was updated to have the religions, as that's the only thing I like about Ck2+. Well that and the ability to plan feasts/hunts/fairs. I guess back to just playing with VIET or something. Ancient Religions is a mod on the Paradox forums, I think they're about to release their latest patch.

Eimi posted:What I mean is AR is just Hellenism and like parts of celtic. CK2+ has a lot more, like Egyptian. If Ancient Religions is updating I'll check and see what they added. I just know I like that part of CK2+ and hate...like everything else. Well some of the titles are cool, like being able to actually be Pharaoh. Clearly the answer is to just play more vikings til then. Try and start as norse and take over Perm for the best flag. (Bears rock.) Ancient Religions is made by the same guy but I think he also works with the CKII+ team and puts some of his work there first.

If anything, there should be a lot more deaths in landed merc/knight lands. These guys should be constantly fighting with one another for control since they don't have to deal with feudal concepts all that much. I hope the next minor DLC gives republics and landed mercs an overhaul. I would really like to play as a non-merchant republic someday.
