Third for best ck2 mod steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=773182774

Hit vassal limit and demesne limit. What the fuck do I do now?

Are there any mods for Victoria 2 that simulates the Warlord Era of China?

more stewardship
hand out duchies
more vassals are more important than more desmesne when you are large, so lower centralization

I may have, undervalued the cost of war... I am under large sums of debt and those blasted loaners are harassing me about payments. I am afraid the queen of Aragon must do without my personal levies. But that means we shall fight smarter, not harder. If I can capture the King's heirs or better yet, the fool himself then perhaps the war will be over faster. I may be brave but I am not stupid. And I know when a battle is illfight. I will not throw the lives of my men away after we got back from the holy lands.

huh?

Anything ever come out that makes an interesting Cold War experience? I tried playing East vs. West, but too much doesn't seem to work right.

HPM, but you would need to play up (or as) China until it's westernized.

vanilla Darkest Hour lasts into the 60s and it has mods with full cold war scenarios

Yeah, but because you were so rude I'm not going to give it to you.

They were filthy collaborators, serves them right

Th-that is no way to talk to a Crusader King 2 subject.

My Steward thinks it be best if I give some lands away as well as make a merchant republic. Its all the rage throughout Europe no adays. The profit, I am told will be worth it. We shall see. But unto what I am good at.

It seems as my Warlike behivor has cought up to me. The king himself is leading this Army. I am told he is a fearless warrior like my self. In fact, I have a letter from him:

To the fearless Iberian king, Rey Fruela, I have studied and heard much about you. Your wars against the other Iberian lords is truly great and I have no doubt you and I were cut from the cloth. But while you place your skill to God I place it in myself. And that is ultamitly what will decide the fight. Not to mention our overwhelming numbers. If you would surrendor now I will promise on my crown that none of you or your soldiers, not matter rank or birth status will be harmed. But, we both no that will not happen, for I know what kind of man you are for I am that very same man myself. I am looking forward to our dual Rey Fruala the fearless.

He has one thing right, I will not be backing down.

Shit I croped out how much gold I owned ((them)) I was under -300 or so.

Perhaps we can come to a certain arrangement.

Does the Ming -> Horde Haixi in first 10 years of the game exploit still work in 1.25?

Attached: ming to haixi.jpg (1219x574, 99K)

do you get more taxes and levies if you own all the holdings in your capital duchy or if you try to spread your demesne over as many counties as possible?

Capital duchies give straight up bonuses

can't keep my finger away from the ` key

If you do the former when you raise your own levies they will appear all near one location and the later will be spread apart. goodluck crushing revolts. Plus it makes more sense if you concentrate your power. as well as what he said And here is the King's states. I really fucking hope the Duel event fires and works.

Attached: AAR 64.png (1544x838, 2.1M)

Perhaps.... *slowly wraps arm around u*

i know but i will have less baron-tier vassals directly under me
i want to know if anyone has measured the levies and income under both scenarios so i can know for sure.

Crisis in the Kremlin

Attached: screenshot1.jpg (600x336, 82K)

I have been humbled. Despite them holding the overwealming numbers I somehow thought we could still win with the rivers and more importantly me. Maybe that is why we lost? My pride? God has left me humbled before him and still breathing and for that I am gragteful. But right before the battle we finished sieging the capital and took most of the royal family. And that is when I found out. The kingdom of Aquatine inherit by seniority. Very odd.

It has visual novel tier gameplay, so anyone who likes darkest hour kaiserreich will love it.

of fucking course
Show the hussars decision effect

YES

I'd show you but becoming the Union removes it

All it does is reduce troop costs and buff morale for 20 years

Pic related is very problematic. Paradox should fire the DH dev team.

Quite frankly having a shadow in place of Hitler like im the German censored version would be more appropriate.

I'm already downloading from cs.rin. You lost the opportunity to see some prime OC cunny that i was willing to share

I have decided to let my men and levies rest for a while until we go into the frey once more. If the Queen of Aragon can not reclaim her lands without me then she does not deserve those lands.

Anyways I have decided to take more of a hand own approach to our finances, and I must say I think I have a thing or to for gold. At least I think I do. I ask my advisers if it would be wise if I spent a... sum of ducats on some jewelry for me and my house and they of course said yes! I mean I do deserve to indulge myself at times right? Right?

should have taken it before you switched

I have all the porno I could want at Yahoo. Roleplaying goes beyond that.

when your done come back here and we can chat *admires your breasts and winks*

would you rather have 10 more vassals who give you ~3k men each or a single county?

Devils breath why must ill news arrive in pairs? some duke in Leon thinks he can take on me and the might of Castile and now I have to may almost twice for my jewlary. It better be worth it dam it. Luckily the pope and I became friends during the Crusade so he surely aught to lend me some money.

Is this mod broken or am I stupid

Not balanced and not for multiplayer
try raiding elven shits as norscans and not being killed in a duel by cheating cunts

I hate how expensive those crowns and jewels are. Worst part is when the black smith runs away with your artifacts to another kingdom. I had to make the same armor 3 times because the smiths kept runny away.

The pope was willing to fund me but that was not enough and I had to get the help of those dam bankers. Going to give him one of the books I have written to see if I can get another donation.

So long as you don't care about bordergore, yeah

if only the banks accepted a donation in books. After all isn't wisdom the greatest treasure of all?

eu4 is superior in every way

you made a straight bee line to africa. why?

I use a mod called fixed smith prices because I hate how inflated they became. In a achievement run I was going in Tibet, a full set of armor costed like 10k or something or 30k it was insane and you better believe that the materials I needed were in but fuck so thats another 5-10k. fuck that.

This user knows.


Odd, I have been busy planning with the war meetings and the like. I don't remeber being any where near the capital. I know we talked about having a girl and we have been trying but, its unlucky at my old age. Something is off here...

Attached: AAR 68.png (1650x1080, 3.14M)

A developed barony in my capital county with a good marshal can too give 3k men

Is there a mod to make it so CK2 isn't so random-chance dependent? It makes it feel like you spend half the game just waiting/hoping for something to happen.

Meanwhile in EU4 you KNOW when things will happen and can actually strategize.

During the siege I captured and have been raising the King of Aquatine's grandson as my own. Lad is a wimp but under me he will be strong like his grandad. I need good rivals not weak ones.

uninstall.exe for eu4 is a great mod that will solve your problem

Luckily it turns out to be mine. What a relief thought I would have to kill my wife. Hahahaha. *cough* *cough *cough* I am getting to old for this. Hopefully my son is doing well I have not heard from him in a while. I know my grandson is being tutored by the Queen of Aragon. Might end up a theologian. Our family have been known to be great Christians so this is great news.

Attached: AAR 70.png (1670x1086, 2.85M)

That's the thing, I want to like CK2 but it feels so shitty to actually play because of how chance-based it is.

>10 vassals

Maybe you could try to play CK2 differently than you play EU4. They're very different games.

>vassals
>3k each
lol how deluded. try 500 each and that's if they like you.

>-2

Rey Fruala the Third. A great warrior and a great father. And a greater King. He freed us from the tyranny of Henrique the Evil and expanded his lands. Defender of Christdom and a man of many virtues and few sins, he is an example on how all Christian kings aught to be.

With the passing and buriel of my father I have come now to Rule the Lands of Castile. My Goal? To finish what my father started. The queen of Aragon is drunkard and cruel women. What my father thought of as an honrabole women was nothing but a facade. She has harried me and my wife long enough. I think its time some things changed in Castilian politics. She even ruined my own son's educationt! I am not such a great Chrsitian as my father was so my son being better at reading then he is at sword play is disappointing. Sadly my wife has brought me no more male heirs other then him and... Diego, our still born. Something I would like to forget...

>playing 867

What a good christian you are.

your fathers newest son looks different then the rest of your family

>He wasn't here when an user posted his Long Korea game

It was hilarious. He wanted to go from Seoul to Lisbon at first and then just kept on going. Took a regiment two years to cross.

now rape him

Yes, he truly was. Sadly my devoation lies elsewere. I am not a monster but its clear raising an forign child in this manner is no good. I am of Three minds. Let the child rot, ransom him or follow my dad's footsteps and raise him like if he was one of your own? My own son is in my wife's court, so I dont see him that often. I do miss the little bugger.

Manrique? Nah he just takes after his English mother a bit more that is all. Him and the King of Misr are real brothers from his second wife, the rest of the litter is from his first wife. But if I can find evidence that english whore is indead a whore then I can reclaim his lands and distribute amongst his real kin.

I am not the king of Leon though. So it should not matter right?

Attached: Bug2.png (1696x1078, 3.06M)

1254 I cropped it out by mistake. Could it be because Leon is effecting it?

Why do you have Leon laws? Are you his vassal? If yes then you must follow his laws.

No I have lands that are in De Jure leon. How can I, a king be his vassal?

So, did Talex got kicked out and the mod development got handed over to a local /gsg/ noble?

How could the King of England be a vassal of the King of France?

Yea. We got bored of him and he got bored of us.

How do I reform the HRE in divergences of darkness

FYI, if there are any shitposters here, I am going to kill you entire family if you do that to me even once. If you are in any way affiliated with a company that makes lifelike robots used for the purposes of shitposting then I will kill everyone in your family. If the network of shitposters is so large that I have to depopulate the entire Earth, then I am totally fine with that. What you planted will not grow. Only what I plant will grow.
Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.
