Discord and Conquest - The Story of the Ruling House of Salerno
I am starting another AAR after my last one ended prematurely due to stupidity (I erased the save file). This time I intend to take the AAR through to the end, or pretty far at least. It will mainly be a Gameplay style AAR with a bit of misguided attempts at comedy thrown in for good measure. I am playing vanilla CK2 with the Republic, Legacy of Rome, and The Old Gods DLC on Hard. I am using the Stamford Bridge starting date (September 1066)
For this AAR I am returning to vanilla CK2 after spending a long time playing only the Game of Thrones Mod (which I highly recommend). I will be playing as the ruling House of the Duchy of Salerno, the di Salerno family (which is a pretty lame name). I will be trying to update this AAR frequently, but there may be extended breaks because I am busy with work, school, or family stuff. Anyways, thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy it!

*The title is a reference to the book Kinship and Conquest: Family Strategies in the Principality of Salerno During the Norman Period, 1077-1194 by Joanna H. Drell. I haven't read the book, I just thought the title was nifty. I am starting another AAR after my last one ended prematurely due to stupidity (I erased the save file).
