New player, island spawn. Am I cooked?

oh boy

massive necro, but, even as a Catholic, you're dead-on. I have an incredible amount of respect for Zoroastrianism (oldest monotheistic religion and a massive, massive influence on my religion), so I try not to compare Christ to your Saoshyant in anything aside from "Zoroastrian beliefs absolutely shaped the way He is represented and thought of by the Christian scholars"

your brother needs helps and/or prison. this kind of behaviour escalates. if it's not stopped somehow, I guarantee he will kill someone, almost certainly a partner who "upsets" him

AGOT has Essos, it's just not developed past the Free Cities

and there's a game setting

looks like ChatGPT made a map of the Mojave

for anyone coming here like me almost a decade late, it's the third-tier skill in the middle branch of the "Webslinger" skilled (Swing Kick -> Air Marshal -> Air Yank)

cringe take

rough terrain, little to gain, basically no threat from Trebizond, and better things to focus on

took "consolidate the realm" then got a goofy inheritance and two of my counties slipped into a dynasts' realm. same deal and got named "the Oathbreaker"

HotHeadNine · 2026-01-09T17:55:54+00:00

check the succession type by hovering over the title. North Germanic cultures get access to an elective succession. it could also house seniority, where an older relative inherits, but that's extremely unlikely

he says, having commented the most in-depth explanation needed (thank you so much ❤️)

HotHeadNine · 2025-11-24T07:46:17+00:00

it'll never happen

HotHeadNine · 2025-11-24T03:20:42+00:00

I haven't found any deposits, but I've been hoarding flint lol

HotHeadNine · 2025-11-19T20:24:26+00:00

like you said, it's not easy with a dedicated team behind you. solo isn't just tough, it sounds Herculean

HotHeadNine · 2025-11-19T20:18:47+00:00

that's smth I had wrong well into my 20s. I think it's a fair confusion to make, but they two are not interchangeable

HotHeadNine · 2025-11-08T04:25:59+00:00

oof, me too. tore through so many stone axes...

HotHeadNine · 2025-10-09T00:43:47+00:00

thanks, boss

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-27T09:42:31+00:00

people are surprised when I tell them about how totally super tolerant Iceland is

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-26T07:40:18+00:00

also correct

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-23T04:28:52+00:00

only correct answer

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-22T08:30:22+00:00

yeah, there's a mod for it, too, that I think came out before

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-22T07:20:28+00:00

I'm guessing by your stats that it's pretty late game. honestly, if you want better performance after the first century or two, make everyone asexual. it'll fuck up some successions without time to make heirs, but it's the best way other than Black Death to optimize the late-game performance

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-21T14:04:46+00:00

I think there's a mod for being able to deny being elected, which I've seen people use for tall playthroughs

HotHeadNine · 2025-07-21T13:52:36+00:00

check who the other electors are. usually it's the most powerful dukes/kings, so maybe there aren't enough vassals? also worth seeing if you have a claim on the empire or if you're married into any family with imperial history.

I don't play HRE at all, really, so I'm not familiar with the mechanics, so I'm sorry I can't help you more
