Started playing TOG last night and went on a raiding binge all around Europe. Can't decide which was more fun, raiding the Vatican or sacking Constantinople. Either way I'm positively swimming in gold now, time to go collect holy sites and reform the Norse religion. For Odin!

kingturnip posted:It's actually one of the easiest starts. If you choose the ambition 'Become King', you've got enough manpower on your side to start Subjugating one/two province Counts, and the ambition lets you do that non-stop until you can afford to create the title. You probably don't even need to conquer them all, since I found a few would accept Vassalisation. Speaking of  , after founding the Kingdom of Norway and claiming Iceland for myself, I declared five different pagan invasions of different counties in Ireland simultaneously, shipped ~3k vikings over, and in the span of about a year carved a blood-soaked swath across Ireland. Round two is coming tonight to claim a few more, found the Kingdom of Ireland, and take the entire island. Reclaim the north for the Allfather

SkySteak posted:It might have been sheer luck but getting over 100 free boats and 5000 free men is absolutely fantastic, Planned Invasion wise. This gets even more amazing if you have a large enough warchest (from raiding) to then buy a load of mercs. What do I need to do to get a Planned Invasion CB? I've been wanting one to try to expand further but I don't know how to do it.

Torrannor posted:As Dauntasa said, your realm needs to have fewer than 40 holdings, and you must have 1000 prestige (you get 1 prestige per 1 gold you raid, so this is easy). Wait, there's a 40 holding limit on your holdings + target holdings? Ugh, no wonder I'm having trouble finding an invasion, guess I'll stick to fabricated + de jure claims mainly then.

If it is gone, how do I access that function? It moved from where it used to be, now it's down in the lower right-hand corner underneath the minimap.

Oh what the gently caress. In my current game I'm trying to destabilize Lotharingia in order to take the last holy site the Norse religion is missing, so I figured I'd go and try to kill the king. His name is King Louis II 'the Cruel' of Lotharingia, so I figured this should be easy to find backers for my plot, but no. Despite being a cruel depressed homosexual kinslayer, he is loved by all of his vassals except one, the mayor of a small city no one gives a poo poo about. What the gently caress Crusader Kings

I mean, I know, I should start focusing on forming England and then Brittania, but... it was too easy to collect all the holy sites.

Veryslightlymad posted:In my file, the Holland area went under the crown of Italy, and half of it tried revolting for independence alongside Tuscany and Modena, so I just stomped the hell out of Italy while they were busy trying to hold their south together. Lotharingia used to be a super power, covering roughly the territory of the HRE in 1066 and reaching all the way down to the tip of Italy. I successfully assassinated the king, splitting the country into two: Lotharingia is the north half, Italy is the south half. I declared a conquest of Zeeland, raised the levees of Norway and Ireland, and sailed south. By the time I landed my 7k soldiers, Lotharingia had somehow created a 15k doomstack that marched in. Now I'm trying to kill the new king of Lotharingia seeing as his heir is a 4 year-old girl. I just want this loving county

Ofaloaf posted:Hey guys, the Newab of Bengal, the grandson of a previous king of Norway who's now become a Hindu, inherited Apulia five years ago in my game. I've been waiting for Bengalese Italy to erupt in revolt, but so far everything's been quiet. How do I get the Bengalis out of Italy? Probably a combination of stabbings and JFK references.

Main Paineframe posted:I'm not booting up the game just to check how much territory Khazar holds in 866, but the fact that there's "one last Jewish Khazar duke" in 1066 implies that there's more than one Jewish Khazar character in the Old Gods start. There's one last Khazar duke in 1066 for players who don't have TOG. For those who do, there's also the Turkic Khazar Khaganate, which admittedly problem has more than one ruler. That's still a pretty underwhelming number especially for players who don't have all the DLC.

Rapdawg posted:I like to think of this that, much like in real life, playing Jewish leaders is going to be playing hard mode to the loving max. I wondering if they will have an ambition of restoring the Kingdom of Israel not unlike the one with the Holy Roman Empire. They've already confirmed a restoration of Isreal ambition, as well as a restoration of Judah and rebuilding of the temple.

fool_of_sound posted:They didn't add India and Imperial China or let me ahistorically explore the new world. I'm so disappointed in this DLC. I too don't understand why somebody would want Jewish rulers in a DLC entitled "Sons of Abraham". If the DLC was called "The Silk Road" or something like that and left out China I think people would be understandably disappointed.
