Hi
I have gone from vanilla CK2 and vanilla EU4 to major-expansion-packed-up (and patched) versions of both in a couple of days. I also picked up the CK2 to EU4 converter. For purely selfish indulgence and to get the most £££'s worth out of these awesome games, I have the following planned:
I am proper excited!
Pick 4 starts in CK2 (starting year doesn't matter)
Play each character for 50 years +/-5 then move onto the next.
Rotate through all until end CK2
Using the CK2/EU4 converter carry my dynasty across from CK2 to EU4.
Then see what happens!
I would like the starts I roll in CK2 to make the most use of my DLC/expansions for both games as well as being as unique an experience as possible e.g. a Doge for one character because that should make use of CK2's Republic and EU4's Res Publica; another game might start as a king of Wessex which makes use of Old God's start date and many mechanics in EU4. (Also I would like to play England for familiarity for one character!)
My DLC:
CK2: Sword of Islam, Legacy of Rome, Republic and Old Gods
EU4: All four!
tl;dr?
Using CK2 EU4 converter
create 4 very different stories (starting weak, powerful or anywhere in between)
which make best use of the abovementioned DLC
across both games
Many thanks in advance!

FYI
I started as an Irish count in my pre patch/DLC CK2 game and recently a Japanese Daimyo using VeF modded but sans DLC EU4.
