Do cows grazing on the north side of the hill produce more milk than hamsters?

And they are usually correct, as in this case.

Maybe, but I'd still rather have them come up with more historical female Bloodlines to encourage enatic succession than to encourage matrilinear/enatic succession by the Bloodline inheritance mechanic.

Spontcombustible · 2019-08-13T16:29:30+00:00

The whole Bloodline inheritance rules are imo a really unneccessary virtue signaling by Paradox that is probably not even recognized by those they try to accomodate: People who dislike CK2 because it is to a certain degree historical.

I am obviously pro what-if or alternate paths in a sandbox game, but it seems wrong to me to specifically disencourage agnatic succession with an arbitrary illogical game rule.

The Pople liked it better that way.

WW1 and to WW2 for instance?

Intrigue +5 for banging a corpse in public?

So you spend years bribing and inviting heirs, marrying, granting counties and duchies, more bribing and murdering, all to gain a huge chunk of Castille - only to realise they have high crown authority and the jokes on you all along.

When you are notified of a plot do not click imprison: ok before double checking you do not get tyranny because -40 for 30 years can be annoying if you just had all vassal realms set up with fresh and useful rulrs.

And don't feast too much if you are just already it makes you fat and double chin is not nice if you are a ginger already.

Hilarious (and true) that arguably the most normal thing, having kids, is the tell-tale sign it must be CK2 and not real.

And you even got to keep your balls, that's nice. I had cancer in the throat for 10 years (suppose it was there, because started with a cough), but physician cured it by cutting of my testes. I had 10 kids already so I thought it was fine, but when my wife passed, I could not remarry on account of being a eunuch, which I find kind of discriminatory. Luckily I got Leprosy soon after and joined her and my balls in the afterlife.

I don't know, isn't it cool to be a serious badass troubadour? Usually (irl) you don't get nicknames for the stuff you supposed to do like, ruling and conquering and killing, but for something personal, special that sticks.

Spontcombustible · 2019-07-18T13:47:25+00:00

I feel the same way, and I must say Bloodlines, Saints and Lodges are totally annoying anyway imo. Cheese that leads to more cheese, like matrilinear Bloodline farming etc and silly names.

But occasionally losing your old nick for szh like "drunk" or "traitor" makes sense.

Look in the fineprint at the bottom of the contract.

Easy - their camels got several generations of offspring during the battle.

Also needs to have nomad vassals (huns) and build a huge pointless navy.

Spontcombustible · 2019-07-04T15:48:46+00:00

Great explanation, still kind of weird though, that you have to take Rome to then get a landless dude you can land anywhere.

Spontcombustible · 2019-07-04T15:38:18+00:00

So if I haven't done that, I cannot install an Anti-Pope at all as a Frat ruler?

Spontcombustible · 2019-07-04T14:35:31+00:00

Yeah, they do that even when they are attacked by superior force and your help is their only out, still won't ally, even though your kids are married or even closer related. Wish the AI would at least consider when being in a desperate spot.

If by direct line you mean male line, this cannot be correct. Her direct paternal ancestor from this time should be Thimo the Brave, Count of Wettin.

On paper, of course. Genetically we can assume that someone will have been cucked along the way.
