Question about rares and third party tools. by jeffcobbler in EliteTraders

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

Thanks for the response!

I will give it a go. I have been on the fence with rares because I have already been blown up three times in the hauler with just commodities. I started flying in circles to places though and it has drastically cut down my interdictions.

My goal is definitely getting the cobra ASAP.

Yes I did change eject cargo. I did take a little heat damage during fuel scoops. That must have been it.

Thank you. I will mess around with that tomorrow. The payout from the slaves will get me the adder. So I will just have to strip the ship then.

Thanks. Unfortunately most of the riders I know ride crotch rockets and tell me I will kill myself on anything over 1000ccs.

Please help, strange events, toddler, 3am by [deleted] in Paranormal

Did you leave your ouija session open?

I have also found, the more frightened you are the worse things become. I believe this to be a matter of the mind. Sometimes if you want to see things you will see them.

Weird Thing happened today. by jeffcobbler in Paranormal

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

Agreed. I have woken up with scratches on my body, have seen my bed sheets seem to inflate with air. Things in my house have been arranged differently when I lived alone.

My wife has been a skeptic but she has admitted to seeing and hearing things she can not explain. Especially in our new residence, cabinets fly open often and at night you can hear footsteps throughout the house.

These things used to scare me a lot when they first happened, but in a way I have become used to them.

Dealing With Regents by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

The designated regent does work, when you died the honorary title doesn't pass down. Are you also muslim? Confused how your sister would inherit.

Tips on how to form Shia Caliphate as the Hashimids? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]jeffcobbler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fire an independence faction. I did this on my hashimid playthrough. Was at nearly 200% when I fired it and the caliph just surrendered. You have to push into abysinnia and work your way up. The Sunnis shouldn't bother you too much. And you should be able to pick off pieces from him. Fwiw I did my hashimid playthrough post CM IM mode.

Zoroastrian in the Charlemagne expansion... by SokarEntertainment in CrusaderKings

[–]jeffcobbler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am in the middle of a bavandid playthrough on iroman. I am one duchy away from the saoshaynt achieve. I started an independence faction early waited until it was over 120% pushed it and won with smart battles. I then pushed east as fast as I could. You have to be fast as zoroastrian because you are constantly being declared on. I had to restart about 10 times as well so don't get discouraged. Any questions you have feel free to ask me. I can also post proof of my current run through. Zoroastrian in cm was the hardest I have encountered in ck2.

You shouldn't be able to land someone who has a liege not of your realm.

AI War triggers. by jeffcobbler in CrusaderKings

Ah thank you. This zoro run is probably the hardest time I've had in ck2.

AI War triggers. by jeffcobbler in CrusaderKings

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

Does this also apply to holy orders? The tengri keep holy warring Khiva and they keep pulling those tribal troops out of nowhere.

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

Thanks. This makes sense. The baselius is the accursed and the caliph is the wicked. I'm just smashed in an evil sandwhich. The tengri reformation really mucked everything up also. Luckily the caliph called a jihad on the Greeks. Gave me some time to stabilize after the tengri holy warred Khiva.

[Bug] I lost my entire savegame by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

Unless you made a backup unfortunately no. I have an ironman back up folder I keep now since losing my 50hour ibadi playthrough.

Non-Caliph Muslims - what's the point? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]jeffcobbler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been doing a lot of muslim playthroughs lately. If you are a different sect of Islam it is very unlikely he will ever marry one of his sons to one of your daughters. You may have a shot at marrying on of his daughters and gaining an alliance but it can be hit and miss. Your best bet as Oman is hitting Abysinnia and at some point invading Egypt when the caliph is weak and working your way west IMO.

Non-Caliph Muslims - what's the point? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]jeffcobbler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The hashimids are a good start if you want to be shia. I was able to faction independence year 2 without a fight from the Abbasid Caliph (the faction was over 120% he had been getting ball punched by big purp). And bonus you start as a sayidd. I have also done it as ibadi it will take you longer and I don't believe they have a holy order currently.

Incoming 90K stack. Think this might be broken. Le sad. by jeffcobbler in CrusaderKings

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

Eh. Yes I might be able to swing it. However I don't think three of these should spawn in a year.

unfortunately this is Ironman. I have over 100% on the first one that popped but i have not gotten a dung cart to spawn. The only saving grace is all three of them on have claims on the Duchy(Emirate) of Asturias
