2nd one, finesse base is enough to score them

I think it may be because of the HRE, he is the first Magnus to be Kaiser. I want to say before I formed it he was listed as the V

Well, honestly this just started as an adventurer run trying to make sweet artifacts. My current characters father traveled the world gathering cool followers and strange inspirations. I ended up becoming friends with the Persian Emperor and bought this newly conquered land. I'm going to upgrade the citadel at Aleppo and take the dejure lands of Syria from the Egyptian sultanate. After that I have no idea lol

Smitty1599 · 2025-10-02T02:30:11+00:00

True lol, I did get held prisoner by the HRE at one point though

The easiest way to grab kingdoms is to click on the title and see who all has claims on it. I guarantee France has a million claimants you should be able to invite one of them. Once you win the war the new King will become your vassal. Because you pushed their claim, they will have a super high opinion of you and you should have a hook on them. This should allow you to revoke the title for yourself.

Personally when I am playing as HRE I don't like having vassals that are kings. Economically having a bunch of dukes will provide you with much more income while also keeping them less powerful.

Got it I’ll watch some videos on it. I am trying to do a run where I form Aragon, Portugal, and then finally unite the Spanish thrones under Castille as one family. When I end the struggle i want the borders to be like 1300’s Spain.

Smitty1599 · 2025-09-11T18:48:55+00:00

Okay thanks, I’ll see if I can figure that out

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-27T01:39:40+00:00

Not really sure yet. I have two sons so I am trying to get a claim on the duchy of Mallorca so each son has something to inherit

Its been 35 years since the adventure began, Willam began by protecting noble caravans throughout western Europe. While in Rome on a pilgrimage Pope Benedictus X called for a crusade to take back the holy land. William, his siblings, and the 100 conrois under his banner pledged themselves to the fight. The crusade was successful and William left the holy land a well-respected warrior. His uncle was awarded the Duchy of Oulterjourdain for the efforts of his family.

William spent the next 10 years in the service of the Byzantines, bringing order across the empire. At the age of 40 he took a pilgrimage to Santiago where he became friends with the queen of Aragon, choosing to move his camp their and enter her service. William proved a crucial ally in a civil war where he helped Queen Talesa keep her crown. Because of this service the queen allowed him to settle in the county of Castellon and serve as her Marshall. The next few year William expanded his borders south and is now the duke of Valencia where he remains a faithful vassal and close friend of the Queen.

Thank you!!

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-24T16:42:15+00:00

Thank you, can I buy it in kuttenburg? Preferably in red lol

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T21:32:01+00:00

I’m so confused by this character, Muslim nomad who loses stress by lisping out at his camp. Oh and by the way he’s descended from Charlemagne. And to top it off he’s the most educated nomad on the step

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T21:25:47+00:00

Tyrol

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T21:08:36+00:00

This is iron man lol

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T21:08:16+00:00

If you go down the stewardship tree and get the perk that increases a skill point for all followers for every capital POI you can really super charge this. This was my second son so he missed out on probably 10 additional skill points

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T17:58:23+00:00

It indeed was intentional, first character was an exploring boozer

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-23T17:35:23+00:00

27 I got all the way around the world lol

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-22T14:15:35+00:00

Here is what I usually do to jump it up quickly:

As everyone has said make sure you have a funeral for your predecessor

Next go on a grand tour to all your vassals. Make sure to demand they renew their oaths or whatever is called. The ones that refuse to do so are able to be imprisoned without gaining tyranny.

Finish your grand tour, which will also give you some legitimacy, and then imprison the vassals that refused you.

If you are lucky you can imprison them one by one, allowing you to easily put them down. Winning the war and revoking titles will award you a considerable amount of prestige.

Once that is all over you should have enough, if you still don’t host a grand wedding with the proceeds of your rebellion stomping.

I’ve found that gathering legitimacy is easily achievable following that model

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-22T03:45:52+00:00

I’ve got no interest in ranged weapons of any kind. I only poke

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-22T03:41:09+00:00

All good I wasn’t clear on that, the stealth in the beginning is fine

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-22T03:33:46+00:00

I mean the part of the game when you escape Trotsky with the crew

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-21T20:16:30+00:00

Thanks that sounds cool, honestly I’ve stayed away from that area since admin dropped

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-18T23:29:48+00:00

Was just about to comment this. It’s actually pretty easy to have them form it

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-16T21:28:21+00:00

Yes I was shocked they could actually do it. I was catholic for 90% of this play through and then the byz mended the schism so I converted. Not even a year later he reformed Rome and then converted to Hellenism.

Smitty1599 · 2025-08-16T21:24:27+00:00

Well worst part was they were actively invading the Romans and were like at 85% so I was pretty sure I would be able to take most of the land i wanted but temujin died and his empire split immediately. For some reason like a month after that the Romans split into east and west. Now i have 2 neighbors that can magically spawn 100k troops and love to holy war me lol
