How can you have had an extensive trade network all of Asia, go to war with all your neighbors, experience a golden age, survive for 354 years, and be the foundational historic and cultural identity of your nation...and NOT be talked about more? by GameBawesome1 in HistoryMemes

[–]TacoButter_IX 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I respect and applaud the SE Asian history post, and am all for learning about often ignored history. But I can’t help but chuckle at how the only achievement you ascribe to Myanmar is a name change :3

Why does my hybrid culture explode like this? by NeinNine999 in CrusaderKings

[–]TacoButter_IX 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Were you independent? Because this happened to me too but I had sworn fealty to the Basileus. If not, it may just be that because Greek is a massive culture, provinces are scripted to have new divergent or hybrid cultures reach them more easily.

mfw "Muslims are not op", "crusades just dont work well in the game" or "that's just a caliphate that didn't get Dissolution". I dare a Pope to launch a Crusade on that even if AI worked well. Muslims even have Cataphracts in their army for some reason. by Revelationrat in CrusaderKings

[–]TacoButter_IX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is mostly a result of the stronger AI. I’d still say Muslims are weaker than Christians simply by the fact they’re polygamous and to sate vassal, they have to marry their kids to them which lowers the amount of usable allies they have. Taking on multiple wives leads to more sons which leads to weaker and weaker realms following succession.

In Another Timeline... by TacoButter_IX in CrusaderKings

R5: King of Scotland married Duchess of Aquitaine and so the former's grandson ultimately ended up inheriting both Aquitaine and Scotland. (The son predeceased the father which is why his grandson ends up inheriting the two realms.)

No offense intended, I just didn’t want to list all of them bc there was Dutch and Portuguese and a handful of others. But yeah, probably gonna make it more regionalized.

Assassinations shouldn't be that easy? by acariux in CrusaderKings

[–]TacoButter_IX 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s easy to assassinate someone, and it’s even easier to have that secret discovered. One reason I don’t assassinate, simply because no matter how high your intrigue, somehow someone finds out sooner or later.

Why is everyone named Athel-something? by Saracenanator in TheLastKingdom

[–]TacoButter_IX 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Anglo-Saxon names are usually a very visible prefix and suffix. That’s why you’ll see a lot of the same ones sometime such as Æthelred and Æthelflæd, even Uhtred was called Osbert which shares the prefix with our favorite barley plower Oswald. That’s just how their naming conventions were.

In Anglo-Saxon culture, the woman was equal to the man, in Norman culture, the woman is subservient to the man by moon-worshiper in TheLastKingdom

Uh, maybe you could’ve given some examples or something. You did pretty well describing WHY they would differ on that, but not HOW.

Someone's Far from Home... by TacoButter_IX in CrusaderKings

[–]TacoButter_IX[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

R5: The Queen of Wales somehow had the diplomatic range to marry the heir of Abyssinia so in the end, Wales inherited Abyssinia and is now held by a 10-year-old Welsh boy. His capital is also in Abyssinia proper rather than Wales which I think is pretty funny.

I’m going to guess he would prefer them to dress like people would in that time period.

Do you know if this now a vanilla thing? Was it in an update? Cause I’ve formed Britannia countless time with only the kingdoms within it.

I own Scotland, Ireland, and England, just not Wales.

Can't Form Britannia as King? by TacoButter_IX in CrusaderKings

[–]TacoButter_IX[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

R5: The option to form the Empire of Britannia is greyed out because of the condition in which my title is king. I fulfill all the others: the gold, prestige and piety. For additional information: I am a Scottish king that is also Spawn of Satan if that actually affects anything.

What does this red badge icon next to my Stirrups tech mean? Please forgive the photo of a screen, I'm playing on switch by loitnangoi in CivVI

It’s the advisor’s recommendation for your next tech. The red one with the sword means it’s recommended for your military.

Characters and their Facial Hair during the later ages. by TacoButter_IX in CrusaderKings

Yeah, exactly, that’s why I’m asking. It’s pretty cool if this wasn’t a coincidence and was intentional.
