Heh, was trying out crisis of the confederation last nite, and for some reason the game glitched and declared my pirate king of hades to be the pirate QUEEN of hades
This happened during my game in Scotland, my queen became a king suddenly.

Talk about LUCK...
Since I've come to these forums, I've heard all the moaning and snide remarks about the Karlings. In my game, I honestly didn't understand why...and now, I think that this will brighten many peoples' days. I was curious, between watching the Bzyantines get absolutely sundered by the Mongol invasion and gobbling up Alba, what had happened to the Karlings in my world.

I give to you, one and all, the LAST OF THE KARLINGS:
...
This was in no way facilitated by my hand. Indeed, I'd married a few Karling women in my day. This is 100% AI random number generator facilitation. The Karlings, scions of entire Kingdoms...reduced to a mere widow of the Knights Hospitallier, the only surviving daughter of a mere Baron within the county of Leon. Her siblings - eldest and youngest - died as sickly infants. Her middle brother, foul play was suspected but never proven.
Thus does a dynasty fade into history. Not with a bang, but the faintest whimper...and the sounds of a elderly woman pulling weeds from her garden.

Anyone remember the times before TOG came out? When people actually liked the Karlings?
I don't ever recall that.
Yeah, that's what I meant. Everyone cheers for the undedog. I mean, I liked Byzantium in EU3 and V2 - but I hate them in CK2 because they either blob or get crushed and make the map ugly in either way.Restoring the Frankish Empire as the last landed Karling, the Count of Vermandois, in 1066 was a pretty popular playthrough back then. Now though...

I like to play in Sicily - so naturally, I'd develop a deep hatred for Byzantium. I can't stand them anymore, not even in other Paradox games.I'd root for the byzantines in my game if they still existed. but theyve been eaten by those lovely karlings. Heck... i'd root for anyone who could knocnk france down a peg right now... its messing with MY world domination ambitions!
Paradox has hereby confirmed that Karlings are, in fact, OP.View attachment 116510
When you thought that the Karlings couldn't get any worse.
They hated the Salians, back then...Anyone remember the times before TOG came out? When people actually liked the Karlings?
Still do. Salians and Doukas are both vermin.They hated the Salians, back then...
