I'm going to do a dumb religion thing I've been thinking about for a few months. I'll probably need to start over a few times. Christian heresy with St. Peter's cross symbol gnosticism even though it's mechanically bad witchcraft yes gay unions yes lady priests only women-first succession maybe mend the Schism

Lawman 0 posted:What are muslim mechanics like? Their big thing is that most of them have the clan government type. The main distinction from feudalism is that vassal contributions are based more (or entirely?) on opinion. They also get a once-in-a-lifetime kingdom invasion casus belli when a ruler achieves the highest level of fame. From what I've seen, they don't get to skip over partition succession types in this game.

I did early start Bohemia after repeatedly getting destroyed as early start Cornwall, and it's really hard if you want to stay pagan. I'm at year 950 and finally got enough levies that I don't have to hide under the Bavarian king to keep my utterly relentless neighbors at bay. I was planning on reforming the Slavic faith, but all the holy sites are really far away, and I just noticed a shiny new Dismantle the Papacy decision that's giving me ideas for other playthroughs.

Antifa Spacemarine posted:Does literally every realm have the stupid partition poo poo as the succession law? Czech (edit: and Slovien) culture is unique in that it has a tribal innovation that gives you access to seniority inheritance in any era and at any level of crown authority.

Broken Cog posted:Ok, I got it again, so I have to ask, again: Has anyone seen the end of the "White Stag/Wolf/random woodland creature" event chain? Looking at the hunting event file, what you're seeing seems normal. You're just increasing your odds of catching it next time in really small increments. If the actual odds are anything like the CK2 version of the event chain, actually completing the event chain will be really rare.

I'm not super sure how the event scripting works, but it looks like you end up with a maximum 7% chance to catch it after you've had 5 encounters with the white beast. So after that point, you'll only need to encounter the beast an expected 14 or 15 more times to catch it!

I decided to try forming a Bactrian empire starting with the last landed Zunbil, and I finally have everything! Except the decision requires a feudal government, and you can't switch from clan even if you change your religion. I think I'm annoyed enough to put the game away for a while.

Charlz Guybon posted:Partition splits things with your grandsons even if you have a living son? WTF Yes, French-style inheritance treats your children as if they were alive for splitting the realm. I think the game only gives land to the dead child’s primary heir, so it could be worse. Something else to watch out for is that if you have only daughters, a daughter with a son will have priority over daughters with none.

At war with a superior foe, I sneak by his armies and siege down his capitol, taking his heir hostage while my murder plot against him ticks down. After I kill him, his heir is freed! That's infuriating.

Synnr posted:It's very frustrating, especially since it's just not consistent afaict. My income tripled once I got it running correctly, but I'm assuming it'll randomly flip like it did before and stop. Having no control over whether you or your vassals are clan or feudal and no clear rules about how that's determined is the most frustrating thing about playing anywhere near Persia for me.

strong bird posted:muslim = clan No, those are only the rules if you're handing out titles. There are some Hindu and Buddhist clan rulers around Bactria in 867, revolts against clan rulers will create clan governments even if the separatists are Christian, and some other weird poo poo happens when you mix feudal and clan governments under the same liege. If it's supposed to change on succession, it's not reliably triggering. In my current game, I've also got a tribal Khazaria with clan vassal castle-holders, all Jewish.

Reveilled posted:The hardest thing about dealing with huge peasant revolts is finding the stack that has the leader of the rebellion in it. If you destroy that stack you've got very good odds of capturing the leader which insta-ends the revolt. The hardest part for me when I have a huge kingdom is finding a peasant army that decided to leave the country for a few months or a year, usually on a fleet of ships. Moving the leader to another army if you defeat their stack would help a lot imo.

Der Kyhe posted:EDIT: Also I find the Ukonusko "Praise Perkele" to be funny, it literally means "Praise the Satan" whereas "Praise Ukko" would be "Praise our God". Swedish developers should know the difference. If you hear someone saying PERKELE its basically "for fucks sake", or literally "by the devil". The devs probably leaned on modern scholarship and some guesses for that one. The word comes from the name of the Indo-European thunder deity (cf. Perun and Perkunas), and it might have been the original name of Ukko.

Veryslightlymad posted:As someone who started as Norse and wound up converting culture to Andalusian in my ongoing file, I gotta say, merging cultures sounds pretty good to me. I feel like my characters would have been just a little different from most Andalusians. I played a few times after the patch that enabled Norse adventuring, and that's kind of my biggest problem with the game right now. I had to decide between staying Norse and switching to a culture that usually had absolutely nothing interesting going on.

Raskolnikov38 posted:i'd say torturer or whole of body but the latter is just because my player style is to switch rulers/lifestyles constantly. seducer can be useful if you're going to farm prestige from empire tier romances/giant familes and schemer will let you harvest more hooks to raise contracts Anything that boosts seduction and attractiveness is especially nice starting small in Europe if you're a man-loving woman or man. I go for non-stop seduction of landless himbos in diplomatic range to fill out a stable of 20+ prowess knights and know I'm on the ball when the "too many lovers" event can't keep up with me.

Bayonnefrog posted:Also, what is the consensus on managing vassals that are in prison that have revolted against you? Is it best to revoke titles? leave in jail? or release for ransom. thanks. I'll revoke if the family has too many titles, alliances, and claims to be manageable, banish if I feel attached to the family, and it's just that ruler's traits being incompatible with my rule, and ransom if I don't really care or need the favor. I used to leave them in jail if they were young-ish and had an heir, but it only takes one jailbreak for me to wish I'd done anything else.

I'm thinking I'll wait for a faction to rise and then take the option provided it's Italian or Sicilian. If it helps, you can always move your realm capital to your primary title's capital. You're probably out of luck if you're an emperor already, though.

Freudian slippers posted:I'm playing as England, and have implemented Saxon elective in the kingdoms of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. So far, so good, most electors will vote for my choice of heir, and he'll inherit all kingdoms as well as all my three duchies and all my 8 counties, the whole lot. YMMV if they've patched it since I last played with these laws, but the way elective works in CK3, your partition laws start to take effect if you have only one top-level title with an elective succession law. Removing the elective law from your empire will/should give you the inheritance behavior you had before.

I dunno then! I just tested it with multiple sons in a partition-succession empire and feudal elective kingdoms, and the only leaks were duchies/counties outside my kingdom titles' de jure territory. You just have to make sure you're electing the primary heir to the empire title.

They’re definitely up and leaving for no apparent reason more often after the expansion patch. I usually find them in their fathers’ courts after I notice that I can’t educate my grandchildren. Edit: My half-assed theory is that they're accepting a court invitation from their dads and then wandering like usual if they aren't given something to do. There isn't a hard restriction on someone else inviting your son's wife if your son doesn't have a job, even if he's your heir. No Pants fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Feb 19, 2022 |

Like, after 50 or so battles, your purple armor gets a Diablo-esque prefix-suffix that adds another modifier? I had it happen during my first run of Royal Court but I'm not seeing it happen in subsequent playthroughs. I had some absurd purple armor that had like 2 prefixes and suffixes before I quit that game. https://ck3.paradoxwikis.com/Artifacts#Improving_artifacts My first playthrough, I had a dynasty that did so much battling that their first lovely set of armor ended up better than any fresh purple.

Moonshine Rhyme posted:I feel like the artifact claim wars should only be possible for the two highest tiers of artifact. Or maybe gated by highest title so a county holder could go to war over the lower level ones but a king could not. I was unloading my trash artifacts on a relative in the ERE, and the emperor has been getting rocked by non-stop wars from my realm's incestuous alliance of dukes. I switched to giving them to the king of Sweden thinking that his giant tribal troop count would deter them, but now he's getting attacked, too.
