TravelLog posted:Is there a way to raise a specific number of troops? It is driving me mad "raising all levies" then splitting repeatedly and disbanding if I only need like 3K guys (out of 30K) to take an OPM. Ctrl click will move whatever is there rather than continue waiting for more to show up. I just raise local, get the instant maa pop, then ctrl click to the capital

Sankis posted:The amount of mercs the Pope can hire is prettttty loving ridiculous. I'm in a great holy war against the pope's kingdom (its about half of italy, granted) and they have 20k levies but 40k in mercenaries. This is on top of the HRE also being involved with their own mercs and levies. It has been going on for almost 20 years now. I cannot make much of a dent in them, battles-wise, because they have a blob of anywhere between 90k - 150k sitting in italy waiting for someone to land. AI doesn't seem nearly as affected by starvation, either. Half of their armies have skulls. Get an elite squad of siege units that can take down the capital super fast and have them waiting in boats. Meanwhile have another army someplace else to lure away the doomstack. Sack Rome, retreat to boats (or stand down your maa if the enemy army is far enough away since you can re-summon them instantly and refresh their supplies) If you capture the Pope, congrats you've won the war. If not they'll retake Rome soon enough. Rinse and repeat. Granted, I don't know if the game actually lets you keep rolling the dice on king captures that way.

Weasling Weasel posted:I bounced off CK2 pretty hard as I don't really enjoy sandbox games where it gives you no instruction or overall goal other than one's you set yourself. Does the game with anything that can be reasonably considered a campaign at all, or is it all entirely sandboxy? The only "Campaigns" in ck2 or ck3 are basically just achievement hunting, which is also just a goal you set yourself. But there's lots of things that you're unlikely to do by accident. So it's up to you if deciding that you're going to form Portugal as Nuno II Vimaranes is a campaign or not. But if you didn't like ck2, ck3 is just ck2 with fewer satan worshippers.

Ice Fist posted:So some of the vassal mechanics boggle my mind. Why don't vassals defend their own lands when they are in danger of losing them to someone else? I mean, I get that their liege is supposed to defend them. That's kind of the point of the feudal system. It just doesn't make any sense to me that they wouldn't raise their personal armies and defend their stuff when the alternative is losing them. I mean, when I'm a vassal although I'm not officially in my liege's wars I'm still able to participate in the conflict because the invading armies are considered hostile and if the outcome of one of my liege's wars is going to negatively impact me I'm sending in the troops. Yeah, it's just weird. I was attacking Sweden and they decided to take their army, go to sea, sail around the planet, and attack Mali. My vassal king of Mali owned basically the whole of the dejure Mali empire lands with like 8k levies but just let this 2k stack siege his capital and capture his whole family. Great work dude

If the pope is unlanded and you own Rome, there's a decision to restore the papacy, and he'll show up as your vassal, which is nice

Daktar posted:Does the Pope just disappear if Catholicism collapses too much? There's a handful of Catholic counties in my game and no rulers following it as far as I know, and in the religions menu it doesn't have a head of faith any more. He disappears if he has no land, so unless one of those countries is Rome, he'll vanish

Venice became rich as gently caress after the expansion which let you hire approximately all of the mercs, so it wasa decent swing even before the huge retinues the family palaces let you get

I don't think any do, he predates crusader kings, his kids didn't do a hell of a lot, and there's no real genealogy to speak of to trace him. He's also later than the timeline of imperium universalis so I don't think there's a modded version either

Best strategy for raiding is making sure you've got a siege commander. Even if their other stats are not great. Being able to swoop in and finish a raid before the armies can get properly raised is a huge bonus no matter where you go. That said, definitely start by raiding the poo poo out of Ireland before they start consolidating, they tend to be weak with lots of churches.
