Fists Up posted:What exactly is the impact of clicking the "grant to low noble" button with a castle holding? As it picks from random does this just end up finding me some more potential vassals who I can eventually elevate? I think it just flat out creates a vassal. One that never seems to have kids because I keep getting the drat castle back every 30 years.

What's the best way to spin off a dynasty member with an empire title? I'm in a position to form the empire of Francia and I'd like to hand it off to one of the other cadet branches of the line, but the Kingdom of France is a vassal, not a direct title I hold. I can't give the king I want to make an Emperor the vassal beforehand because they're the same rank, and I can't seem to send my own vassals to other empires (I tried to pawn off a de jure vassal to the HRE and couldn't see an option) Is tyranny to revoke the france kingdom title my only option?

I break my army down as much as possible when there's a crusade and put every eligible male in charge of their own 10 person army to get that trait across as many people as possible for the opinion boost. Sadly making my Muslim dukes siege Jerusalem doesn't give them a trait

Chewbot posted:Anybody notice their spymaster actually stopping plots when set to defensive? I've had some very high skill/high opinion spymasters but I don't think I've ever seen them discover murder plots to my family. Or are they stopping all kinds of stuff that I never get informed of? Is it better to just have them always on hostile schemes or secrets? Mine discovers stuff pretty regularly, I think it's a skill vs skill check+ whatever modifiers they/you have. Me scheming with 35 intrigue and the scheme tree filled in results in 95s everywhere usually cause nobody has a good enough spymaster. Make sure it's the highest skill guy you have, ideally that isn't vengeful or something or else you'll find him murdering you because you refused to be his friend when you were both 2.

Reveilled posted:Goddamn, my latest Emperor just died, and his 18 year old youngest son just took the throne with his 23 intrigue score. Was looking forward to a lifetime of murders and executions to secure my throne...missed that my boy was Just. Stress for every exectuion, stress for every hostile scheme. Goddamn it. My current guy is paranoid, just, and gregarious. Stress for talking to people, stress for not talking to people. I forget what the event was but my options were +63 stress, +63 stress, or +126 stress. Thanks game.

Find a claimant, fabricate a hook to force them into your court, assassinate the king, press the claim and presto, new king/queen vassal

Ms Adequate posted:I wish I knew why my eldest daughter, who had been my heir, suddenly is not? (Female preference as we're Daura) It's gone to the next daughter and after I disinherited her and the other two girls, to my sons. As far as I can see she doesn't have any bastard trait and her dad is still the man believed to be her father since birth. I also tried disinheriting and restoring her own inheritance to no effect. She doesn't stand to inherit anything like any other titles or anything and I have absolutely no idea why. Did she take the vows all on her own? I feel there's a popup when that happens, but maybe not

Jeza posted:If you have a nice stable kingdom/empire as a Catholic, don't ever bother trying to find secrets in your court. All it does is give you non-stop choices between losing a level of devotion or pissing off entire swathes of families/vassals as you compulsively throw them in prison for constantly boning their siblings/grandparents/peasants. Speaking as someone that owns half the world, this happens endlessly anyway I find it funny that not arresting them gives a level of devotion drop, but instantly releasing them has no penalties at all "sorry ma'am, had to pretend I cared" The only upside to all the adultery is I can force them to convert to Catholicism upon release
