I'm not entirely certain myself. I parked my spymaster in Abkhazia to smash the factions up, and then sort of forgot about her. My wife has a huge Learning stat, though. That could be part of it.

Update 4: Endings and...! I decided to dabble in some trade research, if only to try and inspire the Manessite Republic to innovate or get beaten out by the Venetians.   Meanwhile, the Tengri dissenters are handled in the proper manner.  Next target is Syrt, a small county that somehow escaped our notice during the last conquest.  ...But not before another Tengri demonstration.  Moving on.  I've decided to lower my vassals martial obligations, if only to try and curry favor with them.  The Mohametans do enjoy dressing up a succession war as a religious disagreement.  So we go to war with the Syrt!   And it's good!   My oldest daughter comes of age, expressing a keen interest in the Tanakh. I have found her a suitable husband so that they may have 'theological debate'. And give me a grandchild.  To celebrate, the Tengris - no, no, wait, it's just the Slavs.   My mother has been out "researching" in Rome. The fruits of her well-appreciated labor are poured into refining the city tax system.  Unfortunately, her poor old heart couldn't take living without my father for much longer, and she passed from this world. Goodbye...mother. ...  Meanwhile, the Tengris showed up to pay their respects to my dearly departed mother.   They and the Slavs were entertained.  My second-oldest, Savilay, has become a fine young woman with a tongue of gold. She also is married off to a man who compliments her talents.  Perhaps to alleviate my grieving, God has seen fit to bless me with my first grandchild - Michal.   Ah, good. The peasants are learning.  Qazan, a Bolghar holdout, is next in line to become one with Zion.  Jews have started to immigrate in droves. Welcome home, brothers!  We take Qazan.   My two oldest daughters blessed my with grandsons within a week of each other. Jacob and Joseph, god bless.  My son has become a man, mazal tov! He would make a fine Rabbi if God did not have greater plans for him.  Another county, taken in Adonai's name!   Ahaha! Yes, yes, good! These wars of God's strength truly are helping!  Ah, and a new daughter! This has been a grand turn of events! Nothing, yea nothing, could make me unhappy now!  ------------------------------ https://www.dropbox.com/s/5maatbbkb197u4l/Let%27s%20Play%202.ck2

 Greetings, I am Khagan Menumarot of the Zion Khaganate.  And this is my lovely wife to be. I have inherited my title from my Father Khagan Manar, the founder of Zionite Empire. I seek to become worthy of his legacy by leading the Jewish people to a brighter future.  First, however let us be done with this minuscule war.  Excellent. Now who to give the county too? Ah!  This Bugha seems like a reliable fellow, in addition a branch dynasty seems like it would have some uses, very well give him the county.  Bughid does not seem the most creative of the names he could have chosen, but it is his choice.   Raising the crown authority should allow to institute Primogeniture succession in a decade or so.  The Khan of Cumania has died and it seems like an excellent time to strike at them....  But it would perhaps be wise to take care of domestic problems first.  Speaking of domestic I have finally wedded my bride.   Ah, excellent news the population is abandoning their heathen ways and accepting the True Faith,  Slowly but surely we are achieving complete religious unity, this is most excellen..... wait a minute.   How and when did THAT happen?! ---------------------------------------------------- Alright so the Byzantine Empire is Catholic, I did not see that coming. Anyway it's 1000, which might be an excellent time for a State of the World, if so you want I should kick the save your way Amnistar?

They usually turn Catholic on me if Hungary takes over, which seems to be what happened this time. Either Catholic Hungary overpowers the Byzantines or Tengri Hungary takes over and then converts to avoid a crusade.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention. The Empress is a Catholic. With a child heir that's not of her dynasty. A child who has an older brother who's a bit miffed at getting passed over for the throne. If I wasn't busy beating the poo poo out of random OPMs, I would've been sending assassins at her like crazy.

Primo is good if you have a lot of family members landed since Elective sticks you with an opinion penalty. Do we have a lot of landed family members?

Almost certainly, but I think we also are getting a boost for them being dynasty members before the elective penalty, right?

The same dynasty boost is only +5. The elective penalty is -20. It's significant. Seniority or Primo are your go to when you are landing piles of dynasty members and have no access Tanistry. Unless you are like me and just enjoy the thunderdome of an Elective Monarchy where all the electors hate you.

The Mighty Biscuit posted:The same dynasty boost is only +5. The elective penalty is -20. No, it's not. This is from fully patched (but non-beta) RoI:  +5 Same dynasty, -5 Elective Monarchy, which cancels out. With the +10 you save from being able to stay at Medium Crown Authority instead of High Crown Authority, you're at +10 to your dynasty vassals and +30 to anyone else by comparison to Primo.

 It varies it seems. Thats from one of my sons, and the penalty is -10. I was unable to find the -20 I distinctly remember, but that might have been from a first son who lost the election or something. And you don't need to stay in High to keep primo up. You can drop it to Med as soon as your ruler croaks.

Do our borders stretch way more north and west than I thought, or is Judaism spreading outside our territory? Either one is good. Also I wouldn't worry about the Catholic Byzantines, just keep them buttered up and wait for the whole thing to completely loving implode because her subjects are still mostly Orthodox, they won't like that.

It usually doesn't take that long. If there's a major civil war we should probably make our move to grab a few duchies. Hopefully before that happens we can ride into Scandinavia and mainland Europe until we border the North Sea, the English Channel, Gibraltar, Morocco and beyond, India; to finish the work of the Hordes and unite the tribes! Normally this would mean repetitive strain injury for any one player, but in a succession game?? We must not stop till this Earth is renamed Zion! Faster! More War!! Constant expansion!!!

Jolan posted:This game sure was fun while it lasted. I think the waiting list approach is causing a lot more problems than the "first come first serve" approach the EUIV succession thread has would have. You put yourself into a waiting list a month and a half ago (or worse as time goes on) and when your turn comes it's "oh hello there real life, how well-timed of you to suddenly drop in and gently caress everything up for the next few weeks". This always happens because that's how whatever turns the wheels of fate gets its jollies. TheMcD fucked around with this message at 10:15 on May 26, 2014 |

I Theory the 2 day timer on picking up the save file was designed to allow it to roll over if people were to busy. The EUIV game had its own share of prolonged updates so I am not too worried about the wait list being the source of the problems. People should be aware enough thay if they are busy when their turn comes up to let it pass them over...and they have.
