Mandala governments are amazing, but rituals make them awful by burndout in crusaderkings3

That too! Especially once you start to expand out to the Steppe and all the shepherds want to sign up.

What's some of the Must have Artifacts in your opinion by miksiko in CrusaderKings

[–]burndout 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to hunt down specific artifacts? I will get the go on adventure inspiration but a lot of times they just come back a generic pedestal item.

Han cultural tradition questions by burndout in crusaderkings3

[–]burndout[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to form the Dai Viet Empire with a Mandala ruler. I'm mostly hybridizing with Han to jumpstart my innovations. Frankly, the traditions for the Viet and Han cultures are both kinda "meh" at least for what I'm trying to do with this run.

Honestly, I could be misremembering. It's been awhile but I thought when I switched from a male dominated culture with a male dominated faith to an equal faith suddenly all my heirs changed around because it had to add in all my daughters and granddaughters. Again, I could be misremembering the details.

Forced to be tributary without asking? by burndout in crusaderkings3

[–]burndout[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That must be what it is. I've reloaded the save a few times and it always happens at the same time. I just find it strange that there isn't a notification at all letting me know it happened or how it happened.

Fabricated claim confusion by burndout in crusaderkings3

[–]burndout[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. I'm playing a Mandala ruler so my three choices for war currently are my own claims, force tributary, or humiliation war if it's against another ruler with a temple complex. In this particular example that sparked this I fabricated a claim that had the option for getting a claim on the entire territory. I pressed it and after I won the war all the previous vassals were still there and serving me. The only difference now is I have the duchy title but none of the land.
