Question: I am a mongol nomad. Is there some reason that "grant title and eveything under it" or whatever isn't functioning AT ALL? It's really goddamn hard handing out larger amounts of land when you have to do it one county at a time.

Nomads don't give a gently caress about dutchies etc.

Huh, have sky burials for Zoroastrian characters always been in the game, or is that new with Horse Lords? It's a neat addition either way.

Its for Tengri as well.

Anyone have a good startup guide for playing as nomads?

Snipe Nomad provinces from weaker neighbours while growing your horde and manpower then take and pillage tribals and move onto Persian, Tarim and Caucasian developed areas, always grow your horde.

What's a good Islamic start? I don't usually start my games with an emperor level title but is it possible to get the caliph title without doing that or doing an extraordinary amount of hunting down of an entire dynasty?

Abbasids in 1066 are duke level and still caliphs

I reformed the Tengri faith after finally doing well as a nomad. Upon doing so, I became nogovernment. I updated to the beta patch and it interpreted nogovernment as theocracy. So now I can't play my ironman save? Is there anyway to fix this or am I boned?

I'm guessing you didn't pass out the temples when I reformed Tengri as the Turks I had passed out all three of the temples I had built.

I pillaged a province, which resulted in me somehow usurping a kingdom, forcing me feudal, and losing the khaganate in the process.

The Charlie era Yagulibid Turks are fun, not too big at game start but with small realms to nibble at plus when the Abassid dies you can attack Kiva.

To be fair a player controlled horde should be a existential level threat since steppe hordes are always the most threatening when led by a strong leader with no thought of luxury or peace.

I like the caps on the title. It really sells the mod. It couldn't just be "Forcibly Enter Female Prisoner", it had to be "FORCIBLY ENTER FEMALE PRISONER".

Actually, what really slays me is the second screenshot. "30% chance of Kaiser Heinrich III of Holy Roman Empire gains Game Master". That's so out of place it's hilarious.

What causes the council power laws to reset back to council?

I was slowly progressing setting them to "Ruler" and had just one or two left and then they all reset to Council. Was it because I surrendered in a war to lower (Tribal) Organization?

Yeah you need to be at Max tribal organisation to even be able to change council laws.

God drat, this game sometimes; started a game as Offa of Mercia, went well initially, he died a bit early but his son was set up fine to rule- oh wait no he just got headcrushed into incapable at 27. Cue a decade of scheming vassals until finally I'm overthown in favour of an 8 year old, 3 days before I die and am succeeded by a 6 year old. Fast forward to when I come of age and check on my 'liege'; he's involved in 4 defensive wars including a planned invasion from sviðjod. Christ.

That's pretty much accurate to history.

I haven't played CK2 in a while but I'm getting the itch again. How's Conclave? I like the idea behind it but Steam reviews are mixed.

The steam reviews are mostly reviewing the patch with the few half baked features which can be switched off on the next patch.
And unless your playing just to paint the map a fast as possible the DLC is good.

So i was just wondering what the gently caress happened with Conclave and its use reviews? I get that people didn't like the coalition and shattered retreat mechanics but there seemed to be something else upsetting people? Like I heard the expansion utterly botched up the education system or something.

People are idiots and democracy no longer works.
