Crusader Kings II ~ Quick Answers

[Saphire]

I granted the kingdom of Jerusalem to an unlanded dynastic member, however somehow he turned to a merchant Republic and every other title within Jerusalem with it. How does this happen?
I dont know how the MR mechanics work, but will his titles stay in my dynasty, e.g. will his son inherit it (he has no son yet, and no heir is listed) or will some random Dude get it?

Merchant republics are obtained when someone is given a coastal city title as their capital and given a title duke level or above. Perhaps you somehow ended up doing that? Fortunately, you shouldn't worry because MRs will not stay in the dynasty forever, but the MR is made up of 5 patrician families, one of which is guaranteed to belong to your dynasty member. Elections are held periodically and the best patrician family will win. So it won't be permanently part of your dynasty but they will probably be king once every couple generations.

oh an can ckuckolded children inherit traits from their suposed "father", for instance if a genius women and a strong man are married, but then I make the wife a baby, can that child only inherit the genuis trait of the mother or can it also get strong from the "father"?

Genetics are real. The bastard child will obtain your traits if you have any. If you cheat with your cousin, then the child will be inbred despite your cousin's husband not being related to them.

what happens if you have a vassal educating your heir that then wages a war against you? Does that add to warscore? Conversely If i war against someone after using a favor to allow me to educare their child....will I be able to imprison to get an instant 50% lead?

When you educate a child they don't actually go to your court, so you can't imprison. It wold be the same if your vassal waged war against you - educating won't add to war score unless the child is imprisoned and you can't imprison the child if they aren't in your court

If you cheat with your cousin, then the child will be inbred.

Oh, come on. Cousins only have a 4.67% chance of inbred offspring, assuming nothing else is going on.

Why can I, as emperor, not transfer vassalage of a duke to a vassal king? (note, duchy is not de jure part of the kingdom)

The de jure kingdom of the duke exists.

 

[Leyrann]

The de jure kingdom of the duke exists.

Ah, thank you.

Guess I gotta get rid of Saxony then...

(interesting though, I could earlier on transfer a count in Saxony to the Kingdom of Frisia... I assume it only applies to duchies?)

thanks for the answere, will only the decendants of this relativ be eligeble or all of my dynasty?

further more I would like to know if its normal that my courtiers barely have any children, some dont have any dispise being married since they are 16. this is not only the case for courtiers but also for my dynasty members, after 400 years there were only 400 of my dynasty and around 40 are alife right now, this is so Strange, others Player have 1000 members after few decades.

Worth noting that Dogmatic AI will only try to convert other pagans while Proselytizing will target organized religions as well. Also, some of the other natures (all but Peaceful and Cosmopolitan) do try to convert provinces if zealous.

Good thing I went with Prosletyzing then. Since I went Enatic Clans I didn't want to lose out on the potential to get a few bloodlines into my dynasty.

Is there a console command to play a specific song?

 

[Caeserion]

Is there a console command to play a specific song?

No. There is nextsong, which just goes to the next song. You could just disable certain music DLCs or make a mod that overwrites the music folder with music of your choice.

I was in the middle of my game playing as an anglo saxon dynasty that had the vanilla portraits and when it got to around 950AD suddenly all the portraits/clothes of anglo saxon characters switched to the Norman portrait pack. Is there a reason for this?

 

[Aardvark Bellay]

.. anglo saxon dynasty that had the vanilla portraits...

That's a bug. Fixed in the 3.0.1.1 open beta.

You should land your family members if you want to expand your family, otherwise they will have few children as a result of the game trying to reduce lag. Some people hate this feature, but it is the main reason why it doesn't crash and burn in a couple centuries. Also, the eldest unlanded male of your dynasty will inherit the MR

Do AI Merchant Republics never use the "Designated Heir" feature?

Hi,

Am I the only one who doesn't see the Kingdom of Afghanistan (Kabulistan) on the de jure map in a vanilla 769 start?

I find this really odd...

 

[Silver Wizard]

No, I didn't see it either.

 

[Maphibo]

No, I didn't see it either.

Iy must be a bug... the kingdom and its associate duchies is still in landed_titles.txt

 

[Aardvark Bellay]

Iy must be a bug... the kingdom and its associate duchies is still in landed_titles.txt

Why does it have to be a bug ??

It exists from the 1066 game start onwards.
In the history file for Afghanistan actualy 977.
Same situation as in the 2.8.3.4. patch.
