So as Fylkir, how do I call for a Great Holy War? The only CBs I find are for Holy Wars, not Great ones. Maybe I need to check the ledger. Also, as simultaneously Fylkir and ruler, am I eligible for Prepared Invasions? If so, how do I go about that? Sorry to ask here, but I have looked everywhere for docs and can't find the answers I'm looking for. Thanks.
 
Thanks you two. Any word on prepared invasions as Fylkir and emperor? How did you learn about the 1100 date requirement and do you know where I can find a manual on the new stuff in Old Gods? Thanks.

As others have said, it is at the very beginning of the year in 1100.

On 2. Janaury 1100 I called my first great holy war. (http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/633033939595550575/96B9ACB3AFD208FB4599738047FD41A2208185BF/)
The other thing to be aware of is the cool-down. Some say it is a "once in a life time", but that is not completly true as I have had rulers that only lived 10-20 years and during those years, I was not able to call a GHW. I think, (but I am not sure) that the CD is somewhere around 75 years. If someone with more knowledge on the CD of the GHW, please correct me if I am wrong.

The reason I believe it is 75, is due to the interval that I was able to use it during my last playthough.
As you can see here, I called the GHW in 1100 and the next one shows when I won the last GHW, which was ca. 75 years later. and trust me, I was checking very frequently to check if I could call it :p
