Low martial stats but high intrigue. And such "workarounds" are the product. This must be the dirtiest trick in CK land.

This is Archa.
It doesn't take long.
This is the province of Argyll. As you can see it is extremely poor, technologically backwards, and completely undeveloped to the point where looting it literally LOSES YOU MONEY. In other words, it's Scottish.
Here is the excommunicated chap who rules Argyll who I grabbed a claim from some time ago.
And here I give Archa to my most disloyal vassal. O how I miss the Hagiopropikteses being my nemesi! At least they didn't have stupid hair.
Jorge von Saarbrueucken isn't exactly the paragon of loyalty, either.
And it's off to war I go!
I choose this not for the prestige, of which I have more than I know what to do with, but for the chance of a +Diplomacy trait.
Oh yeah and there was a battle and I won and took the siege before some of my planned regiments even set ashore.
Not quite Atholl, so John's sons will have to wait a bit longer.
Seriously you LOSE MONEY FROM PILLAGING you cannot make these kinds of things up. Tune in next time as Johann once again employs the best weapon in his arsenal to get what he wants in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

This is the province of Armagnac, all Frenchy and hanging out with the other three southwestern French A-provinces.
This is the Persian dude who runs Armagnac. Despite being Rebellious he still has something like +7 loyalty growth because the Seljuks just refuse to break apart!
And of course the traditional giving-away-provinces-the-Seljuks-might-want.
Oh yeah we're going to war with the Seljuks. Remember when such an event was so significant that I had to keep yearly tabs on the state of the Seljuk empire? Good times.
Oh yeah I'm still at war with the Scots.
I do feel real silly paying for boat trips to my regiments there because the point of the boat trips were to get them back to France, which could have been done quicker just demobilizing them because they are from northwestern France in the first place.
And that's Armagnac.
I give it to this German with an Arab last name just because he rules the province adjacent to it.
Neil's getting a bit stressed that his sickness might make him not live to see Atholl. It'll be ironic if it's the stress that kills him!
And so the Third or Fourth or whatever this is Seljuk War ends with a whimper in less than two months.
Is all the challenge gone? Wilted, in the face of my superior Crusader Kings knowledge? Don't miss the final chapter in the adventures of Johann von Habsburg, coming up in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

This is the province of Arques. It's really quite rich!
It's in the Duchy of Normandy, which presents something of an opportunity.
First I excommunicate
Because otherwise this costs near 500 prestige.
And to knock the badboy down a bit.
And in January 7, 1184, the King of Germany finally requests mobilization enough times for Johann to break free.
To the English, of course, which is by now undoubtedly the strongest Christian power.
I do this to move my capital back to Abydos from Aargau even though it should have been back there when I got Abydos back from Andreas?
And I do this just in case an opportunity presents itself.
Yeah Johann's second-eldest daughter is now the Queen of Bohemia. What of it? Of course his third to fifth-eldest daughters aren't in a position to become Queens of anything being sacrificed in an occult ceremony to appease the vassal counts and all.
Ah, good old child-sacrificing occult rites. Are there any problems that you can't solve? Watch in horror as the House of Habsburg falls prey to Gallic perversion in a slinky dress in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

Johann daughter a queen? Better hope your sons and their children are all healthy, or you might have a decedent who are a king!

Real Men do not allow inheritance to be traced through women.
edit: of course if this all goes as planned one of Johann's descendants will definitely be a king.On that note, if the opportunity comes up to take a King title that brings with it no additional vassals (e.g. King of Burgundy), will you take it?

I don't know why I started reading this AAR, but now I'm hooked. You will however not be hearing from me in the immediate future because I'll be busy catching up
The King of Burgundy actually has several count vassals and at least one duchess vassal, and king titles cost a lot of prestige to claim.Real Men do not allow inheritance to be traced through women.

Chapter 57: Arques
As told with many pictures. And a moderate amount of words.
(All formats, fonts, layouts, and even this little disclaimer signed controversially from phargle's
Knud Knýtling, Prince of Denmark (and other assorted tales))
1184
And now, to war, splitting off the Duchy of Normandy from the rest of Englande greene.
Oh who will those crazy vassals of mine provoke next?
I am legend.
I suppose I could find a use even for those who don barbers' basins.
And Arques is won expectedly.
Meanwhile those knight-errants surprisingly fend off a surprise Medinan attack on Abydos!
It's tempting considering how much I would like to be so flush in cash so that I could build Grand Palaces right now, but no.
I wish them well.
I reverse the decisions of my foolish vassal while the Arquesians throw themselves desperately in vain.
And that's another one.
So many rich provinces, so little base intrigue... Watch in horror as the House of Habsburg falls prey to Gallic perversion in a slinky dress in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!
