Rolled back the update to finish my game. The portraits seemed to still be updated, but nothing else has changed as far as I can tell.

1st son dies from the plague. My second son, who I gave Syria to after winning a crusade, inherits Castile via his mother's father dying from the plague. He gets assassinated by the Duke of Navarra. I can tell from the red skull that says so. How is there no option to arrest this guy with eating -40 points of Tyranny!? This is ridiculous.

Tercio posted:If it succeeds then it creates a Crusader State with a massive number of event troops. 80k in my case. It made them the strongest state in the world and they immediately went about conquering their neighbors, and even some far flung places like Abyssinia. Does it ever succeed without the player aiding them?

Continuing my HRE game with the previous patch, I've hit a snag. Eloi the Great was bashed in the head and made incapable. Reigned at least ten years with a regent and had like 3 or 4 heirs murdered out from under me. Just inherited with an Emeperess who was previously Queen of Castile and Syria. Was lucky in that since I paused immediately I had one day without a regent and was able to give out a ton of titles to different folks without objection.

I married him to the Queen of Italy once. They had one kid and then an epidemic killed her and then kid, so I inherited Italy. Loved that old dude since then.

Yashichi posted:You can change the HRE succession if you abolish council power and have max crown authority, but Byzantium is stuck with their unique succession. Byzantium being stuck with Imperial succession, I get. HRE being stuck with princely election, that doesn't make sense in my opinion. I think a strong enough dynasty could have shifted it to primogeniture in the mod of western Europe.

Fuligin posted:In general I think India is way overtuned in terms of province wealth and its holdings. Followers of Arjuna used to be available from any start date and would also just clown on any muslims trying to break into the subcontinent, but I think they fixed that. India should absolutely be that powerful and rich, it's just that like Europe and unlike China, it was rare that the subcontinent would be unified to any extent.

My old laptop died, so once I got a new one, finally started my first Holy Fury game. Playing as Barcelona. How does the Reconquista thing work? It seems like they're adventurer style holy wars, the two wars I've witnessed had leaders with no titles aside from the reconquista title leading them. I thought Iberian dukes and kings could wage these wars? Haven't seen any pop ups saying it's a new option on the intrigue screen? Am I just blind? Is it because I swore fealty to the French king?

I see...guess I'll just have to plot for independence earlier than I expected. Swearing to France as Barcelona is just a no brainer early on. You're basically untouchable and can wage holy wars at will. I've gained 4 counties in 10-15 years.

Played about 25 more years of my Barcelona game. Fought an independence war against the French when their king was suspiciouly murdered (by who I'm not sure, not by me though) leaving my 12 year old nephew in charge. Won and declared myself King of Aragon immediately afterward. Had a local bishop do the honor. Then I helped a reconquista liberate northern Portugal. Then I conquered the duchy of Valencia and was able to crown myself king of Valencia since I had already conquered the Baleric islands. Then I put a distant kinsman of mine on the throne of Navarra. Then I was helping Leon defend from a Holy War when the Pope started preparing for the 1st Crusade. You'd think that since I was involved in an active defense holy war he'd give me a pass, but no, he hassaled me so I said yes since we were winning. Anyways, the crusade launched and I sent over half my guys to defend Rome from a muslim counter attack, and then the war in Leon having been wrapped up, sent all my guys to the Holy Land, where I captured the holdings in the county of Acre. This was enough to get my 2nd legitimate son awarded the Duchy of Galilee, while I was given 8,000 gold! Holy crap. Immediately set to building nine castles and a city (need a city in Barcelona before I can build another castle). After that, one more castle and I'll have my first blood line.

Veryslightlymad posted:She's not a vassal of yours, she's just a courtier. If she owned actual territory with you as her liege, you'd be in control of Bulgaria, but since she didn't, she's independent now. I thought that didn't matter if the title they were claiming was a dejure vassal. I.e. any title pressed for a dejure vassal should end up your defacto vassal, even if they are an unlanded courtier not of your bloodline.

In my current Barcelona game, Christians have overrun Iberia in around 80 years. Reconquista's have made it too easy. I control 48% of Iberia and am married to the Queen of Leon and Navarra who controls another 12 counties. The next generation will almost surely crown themselves Emperor.

Neat. Especially since I got stack wiped in this crusade.   Not neat, I won't be inheriting Leon after all.  The road to Hispania will be more difficult than anticipated. I only had three legitimate girls and I foolishly didn't matrilineally marry the second. She had a son and the elder didn't. She just inherited Leon. So, I'm going to have choose one of my legion of bastards son's to inherit me instead, or I'll end up losing the game. <_< Map pre-crusade

Orcs and Ostriches posted:It should end with CK2 - Judgement Day where when the game times out, or during a random chain of events that can trigger, signs of your religion's biblical apocalypse start happening. It all culminates with world ending battle against evil supernatural hordes with Jesus himself returning, or armies of dead Norse faithful characters returning as free retinues for Norse characters, etc. That sounds amazing!

Weird happening. Just conquered most of Tunis via Holy War. Gave two counties to my 2nd son, two counties to a good commander. The pope then announces a crusade for Africa. I join and put forth a beneficiary, then realize I can demand the lands myself, which I do, since my lands already border the target on both sides. I win easily, since I'm so close to the target and can land my full armies on the coast and get all the captured counties. I am awarded the Kingdom, and my beneficiary is awarded a dukedom, but somehow my two Tunisian vassals are granted independence. Very weird, any idea why that happened? Not a big problem though, they were both Catalan and had 100 opinions of me and agreed to vassalize again.

Arbite posted:Should naming someone viceroy of a kingdom and including all the duchies below that make the duchies feudal? It's a pain having to make them viceroy of every individual duchy when the option to speed that up seems to exist. I haven't played with viceroys in HF, but I played alot of Byzantium games before that, and that never happened.

First time making a custom empire. I just use a balanced retinue, with equal numbers of pike battalion and heavy cavalry battalions since that seems more realistic to me.

Torrannor posted:Whelp, things are looking grim for Poland. And the Byzantine Empire, of course. That is a reborn Byzantine state from nomads settling, not the real thing. My mother is the Queen of Jerusalem, so I will inherit that. The Queen of Granada owns Ascalon and since conquered the Sinai. I have conquered the Canaries and Cyrenaica. Yes, the Fatamids are still Shites. Anatolia is Catholic. An ancestor of mine won a crusade against the Seljuks to liberate it a hundred years ago, maybe more. Currently ruled by the Rurikids.

Anyone tried 1.3 version of Warhammer: Geheimnisnach? Does it work well? Supposedly Holy Fury compatible and undergoing a series of major overhauls. I remember this mod being awesome, with the sole exception being that like Games Workshop the mod team is a big fan of Chaos overwhelms everything in the end. Also, was a bit buggy at times. https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/official-happy-holidays-heretics.1141282/ EDIT: Never mind, misread the announcement. 1.3 isn't out yet. Just an unreleased beta at the moment. <_< Charlz Guybon fucked around with this message at 13:33 on Jan 24, 2019 |

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Chaos overwhelming everything is a key part of the ham setting. I swear to you, neither the modders nor the original gw writers are Chaos Fans skewing the ~~lore~~ for their faction gently caress that bullshit. In Storm of Chaos the forces of Chaos got their asses absolutely stomped and only ludicrous blatant cheating on the part of Games Workshop even made it close. We're talking 1927 rigged Liberian election level cheating.
