How Do I Wipe Out These Filth?!

[Arokel]

I was willing to tolerate the assassin order up until now.

So what if they took out a courtier or two? But now they have gone too far! They have murdered the best marshal in the history of the Sultanate of Rum!

I cannot find a way to declare war on them. How do I do it?!

I will not rest until they are wiped from the face of the earth!!!

 

[Darkgamma]

Conquer the counties in which their baronies are based, then declare county war on them for the baronies.

 

[Arokel]

YES! Soon they will be but a memory!

Muhahahahahahahaha... *cough*

Crazy over now.

 

[Arokel]

Success Masyaf has fallen!

Only Alamut remains!

 

[Darkgamma]

As you've declared war on them, expect them to be a bit more active in dealing with you.

Already had a couple of courtier die. I'm guessing I should expect assassination attempts on my sultan?

 

[Darkgamma]

Those are rarer as they fail more often than those on the courtiers. Appoint a cupbearer and a food taster.

 

[Arokel]

Thanks for the advice.

We at Abstergo have been trying to do that centuries.

- Tovarishch, our CK2 comrades require our help against the Assassins!

- Deploy the nuke through our glorious proletarian time-space portal!

You're welcome. Please dig the "Thank you" note in a Mongol-proof container near Moscow so that we could evaluate the functioning of our portal XD

 

[Veetor]

Ah, the event when you kill them all is very satisfying.

If I wasn't a Muslim I would be using the Templars to do it.

I tend to go out of my way to wipe them out every time I play as Andalusia. Dear God are they annoying, why are you killing my people I'm in Iberia! What I don't understand is why the AI doesn't attempt to off them.

 

[arothuris]

The AI doesn't know how to press a county claim I think
I have never seen them press a county claim while one or more of their minor holdings are being held by a foreign power, strong or not.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

I have had the occasional "Hashashim kill one of your councillors while strolling through the park with you" as Basileus, but nothing serious. Are they really such a pain in the ass for muslim rulers? Also, I hesitated way to long before attacking them, because I always thought this might trigger some murdering spree - but no, you just have to press county claims, siege them down, and basta, it's over.... or was I lucky?

 

[Pinstar]

I've lost a few courtiers to they as the Byz Empire. What is their real purpose? I mean... its not like they ask me for money to keep their knives away from my court.

 

[Darkgamma]

Their real purpose is to assassinate people.

I think it is to reduce the number of characters in the game, muslims reproduce too much. Also they help against the mongols by killing their leaders.

Does appointing a cupbearer or a food taster make any effect really? I always thought they were just ceremonial titles, ie honorary titles in the game, that the only effect they had was giving a relations boost (which can be crucial at times, admittedly). Do they effect your state intirgue or whatever?

 

[Uncommon-Pony]

For some reason they've never been nothing more then a mere nuisance (Except where they for some random reason decide to assassinate my wife and daughters) might just try to crush them in my current Jerusalem playthrough, Templars all the way!
