Ms Adequate posted:I was going to say much what Gamerofthegame said; CK3 has a great deal of CK2 to build on, curating ideas that were good, ditching things that were bad, refining things that were clumsy. Imperator didn't really ever figure out what it actually wanted to be. CK3 knows exactly what it wants to be, which one presumes helps focus development choices. I do think there is an issue of what fans wanted and what game Johan wanted to make. I think a lot of people wanted was an EU4-CK2 mix set in Rome times, and instead what they got was the very gamey game that Johan is a big fan of. Personally I'm on the fan's side on this one, just glad I didn't pre-order that one.

Do all tribals get Conquer County/Duchy CBs on their neighbors or is that just Norse with Asatru? I figure it's time to go native with my Rurikids, but I'm worried about losing that. Also if I switch to Russian culture I lose longboats right?

Re: inheritance with partition, I've actually had complete success holding only a King level title, Duchy level title, and the complete six counties in that duchy (one of them being my realm capital). The whole duchy seems to count as my primary title, and it'll only distribute titles outside of that.

It would always pass on my Kingdom, the Duchy, and then one province from the entire duchy. The rest would go to my sons even if I only had one. The only way I could make sure my heir would get all the provinces of the duchy was to conquer another duchy for each heir that wasnt disinherited. Oh interesting. I have not yet tried it where my heir has not been one of my sons. Though even with multiple sons it all went to one of them

They (I? Maybe it's in the rules already) but they really need to crank up Exclave Independence. I'm playing as Ruthenia trying to make as many Rurikids as possible, and my vassals have managed to conquer Naples and Porto of all places, and there's no sign of them getting distributed or made independent. I mean I'd love it if they managed to get a local kingdom going over there...

If I'm a king, and want to grant King level titles to one of my dukes and split them off to be independent, is there some way to give them the de-jure vassals of that kingdom at the same time? In CK2 this was the "include lower titles" button I think, but now I can't seem to figure out how to do that.

Yeah as a tribal it's vastly easier to steal your development from more develot places. It's +40 development progress in your capital every time it fires. But your leader must be leading the raiding army for it to fire.

Man the transition from Tribal to Feudal is intense. Playing as a Rurikid king of Ruthenia owning most of Russia (the border gore between my various relatives is insane and I kinda hate it kinda love it) I went from 30k levies and the biggest swinging dick around to 7k. The Empire is coming for the Rurikid kingdom of Sicily now oh boy. e: Also despite coming into this with 5k gold I'm now broke as gently caress lol e2: It's weird not having a way to proactively get gold now. e3: loving hell a lot of these building upgrades take 100 years to pay for themselves?

Captain Oblivious posted:Do the Seljuks ever actually show up if you start at 867 or is Genghis the only scripted nomad invasion atm? I've played from 867 to 1100 now, there has been no sign of Seljuks, or really any movement of borders in Persia and Central Asia. The Roman-Islamic frontier has been 100% static for the entire game from what I can tell. That said I did just see Mongolia conquer it's way across the steppe, but it's not Temujin it's just some guy. Too early for Genghis so I assume just a fun coincidence. Dwesa posted:I wanted to make me 6th or 7th child my primary heir. I set all my previous children as knights/champions and sent them into a battle. Most of them died in one battle or were imprisoned and quickly died in prison. That instantly gave me a lot of stress. Firstborn remained, I was really old and really loved by my vassals, so I just imprisoned and executed her (I had some reason for imprisonment, but I was also forgiving... oops, level 3 stress). Then I realized that my current heir is my grand-grandson and firstborn's grandson and of different dynasty. I killed that child, then her parent or maybe her cousin, who knows and then I gave up. I just wish I understood succession more before I did all of this, lol. Gaining an Elective title is super good for this. My duchies and counties are all under normal rules, but my Kingdom is Scandinavian Elective, and I have more than 50% of the votes, so you just pick your favorite child and they instantly become your primary and player heir.

Weirdly I only just ran into succession weirdness. Have been running a Scandinavian Elective kingdom title as my primary title, which always allowed me to pick who my primary heir was going to be, and then said heir would inherit my primary duchy along with all the counties in it, so long as I had landed the rest of my sons (and sometimes even without doing that). But now that I want to pass the realm onto the son I had with my second wife and it won't work at all, and it's insisting on dividing all my counties up. It's also saying my various sons are going to inherit a bunch of kingdom titles that don't exist (I do not have confederate partition).  Also Herculean is a great trait but it'd be fun to play as someone who wasn't pushing 60 again.

I periodically send my spymaster to Constantinople and have him dig up dirt on everybody, and use the perk that lets you trade hooks for gold to pull thousands out of the empire. Maybe it'll be less of a cash grab if they ever reduce the rates at which the AI tries to sleep with and/or murder everyone they can see, but for now it's free money. Super useful for my conversion to feudalism, apparently I'm going to have to build up all these towns and temples myself. Broken Cog posted:Feudalizing doesn't give you a free city and temple in open slots here? It did in CK2. It does not. Literally all it does is take away all the tribal buildings, and replace each converting tribal holding with an non-upgraded castle. As far as I can tell my vassals aren't upgrading them either; not sure if they're too broke, or if they're trying to hoard money to hire mercs and kill each other.

Aside from that you can look at the battle itself and see the various bonuses you and your opponent have. Those indicators frequently nonsense though.

So what's the deal with fervor?

Actually after looking at fervor slightly more closely, it's actually ping-ponging wildly. When I started the session it was at 10%, a few years later it had shot up 100%, and a few years after that it was back down to 43%. Nothing particularly major happened during those years Also I really think the game would be better off if your religion would only call Great Holy Wars for Kingdoms containing Holy Sites of that Religion. There were too many Slovenskan Wars for Sicily this game.
