    A late 1099 start date is needed!

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 10:04 AM PDT

    1099 is way better than 1066 as a start date, and if I wasn't playing in 867 it was usually my go-to in CK2. Why?

    • Crusader states! In 1066 Antioch, Jerusalem and Edessa exist as crusader states. In CK2 playing as Bohemond of Antioch was one of my favorite starts, and non-Jerusalem crusader states still can't emerge from a 1st crusade scenario with CK3 mechanics...

    • Turkish situation. 1066 Seljuks tend to remain a massive, stable blob centered around mesopotamia/Persia. They might expand into Byzantium sometimes but usually they just reach a balance of power and leave each other alone. In 1099 the Seljuks are broken up and the Sultanate of Rum exists, making Anatolia much more interesting. Turkish beys rule independently in Syria too, which was the historical origin for most of the Crusader opponents such as Nur ad-Din and Saladin.

    • Byzantium is weaker. Every possible date before Manzikert will probably result in the Byzantines being super OP compared to how they were historically, and a game about the middle ages probably shouldn't be a tale about how the Roman Empire was inevitably gonna restore itself with no major setbacks.

    So in 1099 you have a gripping near eastern scenario with Crusader States, a bevy of Turkish rulers, and a weakened Byzantium ripe to be conquered by Crusaders or Turks. I like this a lot more than 1066, which is mostly just "who will rule england??", and I miss being able to use this date!

    Independence war "war goal" is so dumb

    Posted: 05 Oct 2020 11:01 PM PDT

    So I got really strong as Matilda of Tuscany and decided to start an independence war against HRE. I had an army of 7000 and powerful allies.

    However when I declared war, I didn't realize that the war goal was going to be the capital of the HRE in the middle of Germany, surrounded by dozens of hostile armies

    Invading that wasn't an option so I tried to just raid Lombardy. I won several battles but the emperor just printed new armies and eventually took me down.

    I seriously don't understand why an independence war goal isn't your own capital. Shouldn't it be on the leige to try to invade me? Instead he could literally just sit with 10000 men on his capital and wait

    AI Seduction in this game is absolutely stupid.

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 04:28 AM PDT

    My wife:

    - Is my Friend

    - Is my Soulmate

    - Has +100 opinion of me

    - Has Compassionate Trait

    - Has Temperate Trait

    - Has bonus attraction and opinion of me due to Patriarch lifestyle tree perks

    AI:

    - Is my Friend

    - Has +100 opinion of me

    - Does *not* have Lustful

    - Has 7 Diplo stat

    - Has 7 Intrigue stat

    - Is my vassal and knight

    - *Has Lover's Pox*

    And yet SOMEHOW he managed to seduce and sleep with my wife? What kind of bonkers ass logic is this? In what universe would my wife with this situation ever willingly agree to sleep with this guy?

    Paradox needs to make it so that the AI *must* have the Lustful trait before even being able to use the scheme because this is just ridiculous...

    Holy Orders are currently heartbreakingly impotent

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 12:45 PM PDT

    Right now, in my opinion, Holy Orders are super lame, especially when founded by the player.

    There's no way to directly grant them land to help them grow, you have to wait for them to ask. In my experience since the patch, they dont even actually take the land you lease them, just pay you for it and never move in. Also, when founded by the player, they never seem to reach outside of your realm for land grants, which doesnt make sense to me.

    Additionally, they never seem to accumulate money or members. Most of them stay around 2 character knights, and I havent seen any grandmasters have more than 50 ducats at a time. AI founded holy orders are slightly better in that they tend to gain more land, meaning they can found more regiments of order knights, but that's it.

    I made one of my sons join the Templars, and he accepted, but he ended up coming back home in about a year with no change other than that be couldnt marry or inherit.

    This is bumming me out because historically the Knights Templar and Knights Hospitaller had a huge influence on the political climate of medieval Europe and the Levant. The Templars had locations all over Europe, and was comprised of hundreds of knights, and thousands of non-knight Order members. They were fabulously wealthy, and were forerunners of the modern banking system.

    As they are currently they're super flaccid and disappointing in my opinion, also seemingly buggy. I'm curious what others think

    A *THIRD* crusade for England? Please, I just want to chill on my island...

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 07:57 AM PDT

    Isn't it a bit excessive to be hit with three crusades within the reign of my 57 year old Asatru ruler of England? I mean, praise be to Odin for all of the captives, but it took me like 10 years to defend against each of the first two crusades, and now there's a third? There's been only a few years of non-crusading for a 40 year period!

    It is such a slog at this point... for some reason, I'm generally not receiving any Objective war score even without having lost any sieges. So although I can beat the Catholic armies again and again for years until they're a tenth of my armies' strength, my war score takes around ten years to climb to 100% from that alone. I cannot siege anything down, because I have no siege weapons, so they can siege three of my holdings in the time I can siege one of theirs (which is mostly across the sea anyway). I wish the game would acknowledge the futility of their efforts faster.

    Well, not fully futile I guess, as somehow each crusade is not weaker than the last, despite Catholicism disintegrating slowly. Somehow their fervor climbs back up. Somehow they can stay together well enough despite all of their counts and mayors being sacrificed to the Norse gods. I was a Living Legend and Religious Idol before 50.

    Please, I just want peace to reform my religion :(((
