So, I'm leaning toward Greek gods for the first draft of this thing. I know, it's cliche, but it's the one pantheon I already know well. If it's well received I will probably do a version with original gods.

The limiting mechanic is basically going to be about how in addition to each god having certain requirements of behavior, they also require a certain amount of worship. And, as they are jealous and petty gods, if you worship more than one the time commitment will become geometric to appease them. I'm thinking something like if you only have one, you are going to be spending an hour a day in various propitiations. If two, then three hours a day. Three, six hours a day... That's a very rough number at this point, though.

"waifuing" will depend on the actual mythology of the god. Each will have a text for "Romance:". For example, for Artemis it may say something like "If you are a man, Artemis will turn you into a deer and have wild dogs maul you to death if you get fresh with her. If you're a woman, she's down for a casual affair as long as you like hunting." For Aphrodite, "She's down for a fling, but is likely to forget about you pretty quickly", or Zeus "If you're a woman, he'll knock you up and then get gone if you seem the least bit open to sex. If a man, he'll probably blast you with lightning for even suggesting it." Apollo will sleep with either gender if you're pretty enough, Hephaistos is one of the few decent ones and will turn you down because he's married, etc.

Do anons generally get triggered by CYOAs where you "worship" gods for power? I mean, it's implied in the Disciples of the Gods CYOAs, but I haven't seen it show up elsewhere.

I can't post part three because of an embedded file which I can't remove. Here is a imgur link instead

I guess it's better to post this here instead of the previous thread.

The Arthurian Confession
Elective Monarchy

Capital - Praskow
Freeholding - Red Chapel
Frontier Holdings
Khlynov
Kotonop
Long Shore
Vassal Nikita Popov - Scola
Vassal Aleksandr Severny - Saray
Crown Holdings
Volynov
White Pass

Wife - Agnes
Concubines Sarnay, Diadochia

Laws
Zemskiy Sobor
Concubine
His Majesty Great City
Ostrogs
Treaty in Black
Thrice Ninth Tsardom

Tugarin Horde - Strained
Theodosian Empire - Hostile

Yevpatiy
Hero of Might and Magic

2 Glory
0 Honor
1 Will

I'm not gonna be calculating the army and all the costs, but having every steppe holding doubled by Sarnay, then having this doubled value doubled again by the laws, and then added AGAIN thanks to Agnes doubling the effect of the laws, will mean it's quite a lot.
The capital also gets quadrupled thanks to Agnes, and whatever money is left from the laws can be turned into more troops with Diadochia.
Maybe having the crown holdings also be steppes would allow me to double their final value? That would be too ridiculous.
Revolt Chance becomes 0 with all the soldiers.

Low stats mean the starting position would be nothing special, but still stable.
With all the skills Ivan has developed, a large army and supernatural support, he should be able to seize the throne and then maybe even take it south to the Empire.
Or just rule in peace his hot wives and trustworthy inner circle.

I want to think the Author did that so that the two CYOAs seem to happen in the same universe. Depending on the circumstances, the cyoadventurer might end up with a bio or a mech titan.

It depends on how "loyal" the gods are to their prophets. A dynamic like the one between Kid Icarus and Palutena is best.
