Major Isoor posted:Hey, by the way - sorry if this has been asked a hundred times already, (currently at work so I can't buy the expack and see for myself...and I haven't kept up to date on all the dev diaries, so I must've missed one mentioning this game mode) but are animal kingdom games ironman compatible? No big deal if not, though. But also, do the various races live as long as they should in reality, or do they have human lifespans? (i.e. hedgehogs living to around 5yrs. I hope they don't get 'short reign' penalties in their culture! ) They're ironman compatible and have human lifespans.

cheesetriangles posted:Decided after a long life and with a full treasury it was time to search for a smith to get some crown jewels made. He wants 1300 ducats which is basically every ducat I have... then I get the event where he can make quality 4 instead of 3. Going 1000 ducats into debt won't be so bad I guess. How do I get rid of all these highway robbers and thieves guilds. Getting back into positive cash is the only way I've found.

If you play as a horse character, there's a rare event you can get where you can take a unicorn's horn for yourself. It's a crown that when worn makes you a unicorn. Also, apparently if you're a horse and have the Conqueror bloodline, then your descendants can randomly become unicorns too.

Communist Walrus posted:Why are my commanders constantly being reassigned? Seems like I need to check my armies after every single battle to make sure one of them didn't up and decide he's done soldiering. I'm aware of all the various things that might cause someone to stop commanding, but none of them appear to be the case here since the same commanders who deserted are available in the commander pool when I go to fill the now-empty spots Were they landed vassals? I think landed vassals will sometimes either reassign themselves to their own armies, especially if they're at war/raiding.

Communist Walrus posted:In this case I'm playing as the Byzantines, so yeah, they're all landed vassals of various types. If what you described is what's happening, there should really be an option for the player to lock in commanders and prevent this from happening (since the Byzantines can't use anyone except landed vassals as commanders) or at least an option to have the game auto-assign your commanders with the highest martial to lead your armies. You could just use baron-level vassals, then. They (typically) don't have any raised armies so they'd always be available.

Major Isoor posted:Hey, just a quick question (bit of a newbie question, but I haven't used gavelkind in forever) but if -for example- I have three duchies and three sons under gavelkind, if I give two sons the secondary duchies prior to my death, will the last son inherit my remaining duchy upon my death, without my other sons getting additional slices of the pie? You cannot land your primary heir under gavelkind.

super fart shooter posted:I just noticed that exclave independence rule. Does anyone play with that? Which setting is best? It seems like a good rule, to break up some of the more absurd, far reaching exclaves, like the landlocked parts of the HRE in Abyssinia and the Levant that have existed for centuries in my current game I almost always have it on at the highest setting. It just helps prevent border gore.

super fart shooter posted:I'm gonna try it next game. One question though: The way I understand it, it affects independent rulers, so if I'm king of France and I have a vassal duke in Hungary, they'll go independent, or if I rule the lands directly, a local leader will rise up and become independent, right? But what if that duchy is owned by my vassal, the duke of Burdgundy? He's not independent, does it still break away from him? Yes, if the top tier title holder has no connection to the province(s) they will become independent, no matter who owns the land. If its all the land a person owns, they become independent, but if it's just random land someone else owns a random local rises up.

If you click on the county shield that brings up the info screen for the title. That has a 'History' button that gets you the current and past owners of the title and how they got it. Also check that the counties in question were in your de jure territory and not somebody else's (crown laws only affect the title's de jure territory)
