Hello!
Not only am I a total beginner at CKII, but the game also happens to be the first Paradox installment I've played. Anyway, I am trying to wrap my head around one of the basic - and seemingly most important - mechanics of the game: marriage.
I'm wondering of someone could please elucidate a bit on how marriage can and should be used strategically. Beyond the obvious fact that it is important to make sure that I've got an heir, the uses of marriage are obscure to me. For example, is it important to make sure my siblings and members of court and council marry? How can I use marriage as a way of gaining new territories?
As you can see, I don't even grasp the subject well enough to know what kind of questions I should be asking
