I don't know how uncommon this is or what the requirements for it are, but its definitely the coolest title I've gotten so far:

[Cagliostro]

nick_the_ironside = {
allow = {
ruled_years = 15
prestige = 50
OR = {
trait = brave
trait = strong
}
NOT = {

}
}
chance = {
factor = 2
modifier = {
factor = 2.0
NOT = { age = 20 }
}
}
}

I stared at this notice for about 30 seconds, because I was sure I read it wrong.

So now there's a massive Catholic Empire spanning all the way to the Easternmost edge of the map.

Back when I was playing the Count of Cremona in the hacked demo, the HRE fought constant civil wars for decades and earned himself that nickname. I almost felt sorry when the crown was finally wrested from him, well into his fifties or sixties.

Well, with 25 martial and a pretty damn good disguise, I'd say he's ready to take on the Holy Land!

Stuffing a horse down his pants must've been quite a feat!

This guy has to be the worst mayor ever. Cant remember the 3rd one. But lunatic, combined with possessed, combined with ambitious.

Still, not Rome level of insane. The horror I spotted in a forum next door - http://www.gog.com/en/forum/general/...kings_ii/post9

Easiest conquest of England ever. My cathar Queen of Wales had a claim...and by some freak chance, imprisoned the crown prince during a minor skirmish. So...declared war on England, gave the old king a quick stab and won without any battles.

Harelip, Stutter, Attractive, Strong. Twin boys, both have same traits of course.

I should have made a screenshot of my 50 year old duke, who, after he fathered only one daughter, started to practice celibacy. After his first wife died of boredom, the only other woman I found, that wanted to marry him, also practiced celibacy.

But guess what: Although BOTH of them hat the celibacy feat, they actually got an other daughter after a few years.

They clearly need to practice more, they don't seem to be very good at it

13-year old Baron Bo wants some of the ladies!


Some things just don't change in Paradox Interactive games.

Bogomilist Byzantine Empire

Did the AI do that?

Surprisingly yeah, I'm playing as King of Sweden haven't been south of the Baltic. Would be interesting if someone with insight into bogolism would explain how it would have looked in the Byzantine Empire

Bogomilism has completely taken over from Orthodoxy in my current game as well. There isn't a single Orthodox province left on the map. Shiite is well on its way to being entirely replaced by Druze as well. Have to love a primarily non-Shiite Shiite Caliphate.

Another one from my current game: what is wrong with this picture?



It's the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Southern Ireland!

(While I'm the one playing England, this configuration was entirely accidental. I pounced on Ireland as soon as I got a claim on them, and the majority of Ulster was independent at the time.)

13-year old Baron Bo wants some of the ladies!

This isn't at all strange. It describes what EVERY 13-YEAR OLD BOY EVER would do if it were allowed

Nobody knows her real name. Folks 'round here just call her....Mayor.

Bogomilism was a Gnostic religiopolitical sect founded in the First Bulgarian Empire by the priest Bogomil during the reign of Tsar Petar I in the 10th century.[1][2][3] It most probably arose in what is today the region of Macedonia[4][5] as a response to the social stratification that occurred as a result of the introduction of feudalism and as a form of political movement and opposition to the Bulgarian state and the church.

The Bogomils called for a return to early Christianity, rejecting the ecclesiastical hierarchy, and their primary political tendencies were resistance to the state and church authorities. This helped the movement spread quickly in the Balkans, gradually expanding throughout the Byzantine Empire and later reaching Kievan Rus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dalmatia, Italy, France, and England.

The Bogomils were dualists in that they believed the world was created not by the Abrahamic God, but by an evil demiurge — the Devil. They did not use the cross nor build churches, preferring to perform rituals outdoors.

Love Wikipedia. Looks like its would have done well since the Iconoclastic movement did.

That gave me a good chuckle.

[Sunfighter]

Oh come on now! Not only are the Knights Templar Muslim, they are now anti-crusading against my crusader holds in Acre!? I gave you guys that fort! now you use it to try to attack me?!

He's the chancellor, not the Grandmaster. What religion is the Grandmaster? From the event his name sounds Occitan...
