I've seen screenshots floating around of spymasters catching themselves plotting against you, which I'm sure is indicative of something.

Can somebody point me in the right direction as to what I should be doing with intrigue/seduction? My heir was all in on it and apart from banging a bunch of people randomly I'm not sure how to make it work to my benefit.

Is war contribution bugged for wars that you are called into by an ally? I've done most of the heavy lifting in a couple of defensive wars to keep my dynasty on a nearby throne, but have gotten 0% contribution both times.

PittTheElder posted:If they hold duchy titles but are also entitled to counties, it will try to give them counties within the duchy they hold. As I have wailed and gnashed my teeth about a couple of times before: it will happily give them all the counties, leaving your primary heir with zero counties. It shares out top level titles first, and any counties within them follow along, never mind what is equitable.

My heir was all in on it and apart from banging a bunch of people randomly I'm not sure how to make it work to my benefit. If you're trying to assassinate someone, you can seduce someone in their court to bring them in as an agent -- their spouse or spymaster, for example. That can be the deciding factor in whether a lot of assassination attempts are even viable so it's pretty helpful if you're trying to kill people. Also, I'm not sure on the details, but I think I read that lovers won't declare war on you or join factions against you so you can seduce some of your vassals to keep your realm stable. Still, you're probably risking getting the fornicator/adulterer trait or people getting hooks on you so I'm not sure how useful it all is. This is kind of a small benefit but it can be useful if you're looking for inheritable traits to seduce someone then invite them to court. I was having fun just seducing random traited people fishing for worthy heirs but all of the secret hooks and eventually the lovers pox put an end to that.

God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title

It's so loving annoying that every time I come to play my heir their heir is off in some other court and is a different religion or different culture. Yea I know you can swap back but I just wish it wouldn't happen quite so often. Especially since you can only disinherit people who're actually in your court.

Is there a way to tell if your allies will join a war before you declare it (it's very clear in the EU4 UI, but don't see it here). Also, re: inheriting claims. I'm an Irish petty king and one of my wives (William's daughter) has pressed claims on England and a bunch of territories therein. But my children with her are not inheriting those claims. My guesses is that England has high crown authority so people outside the realm can't inherit. Is there a way to check another realm's authority/laws? Or perhaps it's a limit on secondary spouses.

Lost my second son because I gave him a county, he immediately got a mild illness, and his Court Physician wounded him, chopped his leg off and disfigured him in a botched treatment. Died at the age of 19. Shame I never got to catch who his physician was.

If Hungarian culture doesn't have House Seniority succession, then yes I think so. At any rate that's how it worked in CK2, if you had Celtic tanistry for example you had to make very sure no Saxons inherited. Mind you in those days cultural transference was a benefit of a Learning education, and that has enough other benefits now I think.

Yes. You only get seniority from a Czech innovation. You can culture convert if your capital is still Czech and change it back to seniority.

It's incredible that there isn't an option somewhere to just forbid heirs from being knights by default. Usually for direct children I remember to forbid them when they come of age but for grandchildren I often don't even know they exist.

If I am the king of England and I have a duchy outside England, can I grant that person independence? I am still salty about my entire family turning on me and I’m focusing in on the duke of Normandy who provides most of the troops. Didn’t even want stupid Normandy. I just wanted to chill in England and raise sheep.

If he has land in your De Jure England it might not let you set him free. Revoke some English counties from him and see if that helps.

Gobblecoque posted:Yeah, although it doesn't really matter because the ally reward is always just a tiny pittance of prestige. I mostly miss the big relationship boost with the ally when you do the heavy lifting, although at least I have not had them call me out for “not participating” after multiple bugged intra-empire wars I was called into. I have 10 kids, conquered a ton of neighbors and landed all the younger children, had the inheritance all lined up and then my daughter in law’s father died and she inherited a single county in the middle of being conquered in Spain, dragging my primary heir and my granddaughter into a castle months away from being captured. So naturally the daughter dies in the fight, my heir is captured and is being tortured by a lovely two county minor while I can’t do anything about it despite outnumbering everyone but the Byzantine empire. Also ran into fun times when a character my second son was betrothed to was in the prison of one of my vassals that was in a stalemate and my only choice is to send gifts to the betrothed family and hope they cared enough to ransom their daughter and that my vassal would accept a ransom? Some jailbreak schemes or the ability to ransom characters not in your court would definitely be appreciated.

So I'm now emperor of Alba, and I just had my daughter marry the 2nd in line to the throne of the Byzantine Empire and the emperor accepted a matrilineal marriage. Then I murdered the first in line to the throne, while somehow mapping out the surrounding area myself. So basically, I personally went to Constantinople, did some surveying, then sailed back home in the span of a month.

The "Elope" scheme understandably makes you divorce your current spouse if you have one, which, yeah. You can only have one spouse. .....but if you're a religion that allows for multiple spouses, it will force you to divorce all of them, even if you have spaces free. I can understand assigning your soulmate to the primary spouse role, but..... Also, you can't elope outside your religious group. BUT.... better than elopement, just invite the romanced character to your court, then you can just marry them for free.

I can't marry you! You're a Christian!" "Come over here and say that" >Walks over< "I said I can't---" "Marry Me." "Oh, my darling! YES. I've never been happier than on this day!" And you even get a pop-up message on finally being wedded to your soulmate. So yeah. You should be able to elope outside of religions. It's stupid.

The ai makes some dumb decisions about marriages. Besides the fact that women basically never marry matrilineally even when it would make sense, a lot of people that are heirs to titles just marry old infertile women which kind of doesn't make sense, even if you get a good alliance it's kinda risky to delay having kids But what would I know, I have like 6 sons from 25 to 0 years of age and a bunch of daughters Also, there should be a warning or something for the fact that you can't embrace celibacy if you're a seducer. I got the perk and later found out it is useless to me
