That actually genius, I might try it.
I forced thousands of serfs to do back breaking work on my demesne.
While I applaud the deviousness of the action, I don't agree with the actual action. As time goes by the general pool of quality spouses declines, more than enough without me actually helping that along. It is bad enough that I grab all the Genius, Strong and Attractive wonder children.It's a great way to purge physically challenged members of your court and weakening another kingdoms progeny. Incidentally the grandson of that particular union became a duke before the king of England decided he had enough of his lisping ways and reduced him down to a count again.
I think there is little chance of CK2 being nominated for the Nobel peace prize.
Me, being annoyed at the civil wars going on once every 20 years, I decided to purge my realm.
My King was old, had piety, and a little gold for mercenaries in case anything happened.
I began by imprisoning the heir of every single duchy and county. Roughly 4 people escaped.
Then, I began imprisoning Dukes, and banishing. Luckily for me, my overall intrigue was pretty high, and about 6 of my dukes rebelle. I got them, imprisoned, and banished. I am now at a point, 3 years later as my son, controlling every title in Britannia, with 30k gold, and 15 rebelling bishops/mayors left.
Time to sit back, upgrade some of my expanded demense, and redistribute lands to loyal, freshly invited to court Englishmen, and give them only 1 county each.

Conquer Oslo and give it to yourself. Done. And if killing all pretenders doesn't create peace I don't know.I think there is little chance of CK2 being nominated for the Nobel peace prize.
