How fares your empire, /ck3g/?

West Slavic Attire pack is out.
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/west-slavic-attire-content-creator-pack-now-available.1718037/

Previous thread >>1888908

Question of the thread: What do you think of CK3's religion system? How do you think it could be improved? I saw this video on the topic and I thought there were some good ideas.

I was thinking of picking up some DLC if the prices were right, but these deals are just insulting.

Because the one cultural tradition or innovation grants both the ability to go a viking and all the men at arms from the Norse.
The Estonians and other Baltic and even Finnic tribes did raid overseas, but like most things in CK3, it was poorly implemented.
>>
>>1904514
You get the ability to go viking from the long ships innovation. I think I did hear about Baltic peoples serving in the Varangain guard, so maybe it's a reference to that. But by that logic Anglo-Saxons should get Vargangian veterans, so who knows.
>>
Mubarizun worth it y/n

>>1904587
Depends on what you're doing but I'd say yes. They're better than regular heavy infantry and the tradition helps you with fighting in the desert. What are you doing?
>>
>>1904588
Are they better than varangians though
>>
>>1904596
They counter other heavy infantry so it really depends
>>
>>1904596
I'd say Varangians are better just because they get terrain bonuses. But it might not matter if you're in the desert. You can look at the stats and decide for yourself here.

I took Thomas Aquinas out on a journey of self discovery and made him into a pagan cannibal warlord.

There are only 3 game mechanic DLCs and one of them is pure shit and can be skipped (Legends of the Dead).
Rest is cosmetics or flavor packs which you buy only if you want to play in that region.

>>
>vaulter infantry
these guys make me think of endless legend
>>
>>1904967
The game is literally made for this. It's for mal-adjusted autists, not history enthusiasts.
>>
>>1904833
Most historical goals you could have in the game are easily accomplished in the lifetimes of 1-2 characters. Unless you're doing something outlandish, or at least expanding way beyond historical limits, you're going to hit your win condition way before your campaign has had much of a chance to breathe.

And to boot, no one's going to post screenshots of their modest historically-plausible accomplishments. "Oh, you kept Scotland independent from an English AI that never attacks? Good for you."
>>
>>1904973

Why is the AI so anal about holding de jure capital? Even if the capital itself is a shithole with no buildings
>>

wow this sucks

Oh wow really? I think I'll... I'll...

Yeah, that plus them even assigning duchies capitals is retarded.

duchy de jure capitals are needed for the duchy buildings
kingdom capitals dont need anything in particular but are USUALLY somewhat better than other counties and are often also duchy capitals, same with empire capitals

duchy buildings are dumb

Is the human sacrifice religious tenant worth it so I can go to war and not get bored playing tall?

CK3 is really bad for that because you can't really develop your province and add more holdings so you're limited to those few provinces that has 7 holdings
>>
>>1905647
You actually can if you play Metropolitan legacy with admin government
>>
>>1905703
>Metropolitan legacy
I'm pretty sure that just adds 1 building slot to a city, not a new holding.
>>
>>1905633
Mods have been achievement compatible since 1.9

>>1905730
I confused holding with building slots sorry

it's dumb that my character doesn't get a kill count in battles. like I'm some sort of nerd that stands on the sidelines watching the real men work.

Just read up on that guy because of your post.

People like that were exactly why monarchies became so loathed. Thankfully his "reign" was so short lived and he was tortured and killed, old bastard.

After four years is the base game itself good?
Or any of the DLC at 50% off?
Or just cream.api it..

I got kind of stagnant in my landless run because I wasn't sure at what point I sure I should get land and how exactly I wanted to go about it. If I built up piety on a guy I could buy a claim on a large area but that feels a bit too "cheap" almost? The kind of armies you can build if you really start focusing on that style is insane.
>>
>>1904430
court, roads to power, tours and tournaments are all you need. Wandering nobles and wards and wardens are nice to haves.

I just Merced up and conquered a kingdom with horse archers
>>
>>1906845
Yeah the problem isn't winning, thats easy. Too easy. I just never felt like it was "the time"
Landless is basically god mode if you at all are paying attention. Some of the camp upgrades are absurd.

I can't wait for a return of the nonaggression/defensive/full alliance system from CK2
he ended up hiring every single holy order that was now free from the crusade and using all of the cash rewards for mercs, but it's kinda lazy
>>
>liege has holy war declared on him for the kingdom
>he loses and everyone loses all their land
>don't get event to become adventurer or even a game over
>instead I'm just a wandering landless courtier and can't do anything or take any decisions
Is there a console command to force my ruler into becoming an adventurer?
>>
>>1906991
You may have to "die" or switch heirs or something to get the option. If I "skipped" an heir as a landless it would make a new group name and camp with new levels and everything (but keep some MAAs etc weirdly)
>>
>>1906994
Damn. You'd think they could put a simple check every month for a does_player_have_land flag or something to cover this kind of thing.
>>
>>1906997
I think its supposed to happen automagically like you expected I don't think its intended behavior just stating a possible solution where you might be able to force it.
>>
>>1907013
Appreciate the advice but it didn't work unfortunately. Despite having children, the game concluded I didn't have any heirs and gave me a game over after I died. Didn't feel like playing another dynasty so abandoned that game. Might look for a mod that allows me to go adventurer anytime in case this kind of thing happens again.
>>
>>1907017
stupid. LIke you said it should just have a flag or give the choice.
>>
Is there any mod that caps domain limit to 1 for everyone?
>>
I'm not having fun.
>>
what should I name this beautiful gift from God?

Plague rarity setting doesn't decrease spawn rate.
It just decreases their duration on the map.
