Amazing. Too bad that such events sequence are actually random - it would be great if AI-characters could calculate their lines of succession and act accordingly (maybe in CK2?).
They're random? That is too bad. Still, it made for a great narrative. I'll chalk it up to the "Enough monkeys to write Shakespeare" approach.Amazing.

I guess when you turn your back on narrative it seems that narrative just writes itself.
That's pretty deep. But it certainly seems applicable here.
I must say that this is the most impressive thing I’ve ever witnessed in one of my CK games: Eudokia the über-Spy Master coldheartedly murdering her own little brother so that she could put her own infant son on the throne. Pretty much as soon as she gave birth to the little bundle of joy. Talk about motherly love trumping sisterly affection…

Thanks for all the new comments! I didn't expect this to resurface.

Just read it and it was bloody awesome!
Good that I yesterday decided to install CK again after a year's absence as this made me desperately want to play it again .
Awesome little story, it's so nice when CK actually provides you with logical consequences for your dubious choices
Clearly Stuyvesant got a copy of Crusader Kings that is infected with CK2 for added awesomeness Amazing sequence of events there, it's almost difficult to believe it was truly random.
