So i will post list of ideas that i think would be great addition to the game. Some of those ideas are mine, some are things that general public wish for them, or i have read about them on forums/reddit, some are already part of mods etc. I dont know if paradox can use and implament those idea, but i do hope they can. Please comment whatever you think :p (any numbers i used needs balancing and are here only to get a point across)

1. Everyone can navigate major rivers. Vikings would still get this ability (and tehnology and free shipyards) from start/evant, but the rest would have to research and build it. And inland cities/tribas in provinces bordering major rivers would get a new building River docks which would be less powerfull version of shipyard (for exampel 50% of shipyard). If u max out tribal river docks, you would get to build city holding at a discount (this would evan make sanse since cities formed next to the rivers because of defensive adn trade reasons).

2. When searching for people you can filet /or filter/ them if they would join your courth and if needed to be bribed first.

3. Expanded ''bribery. A lot of times there are people and evan relatives outside of your realm and they say they dont have any reason to move. From now on you could give them reason like offer of a bride, title, job if they come.

4. When you become powerful and blob away, there can always be a endless series of small useless wars. Everything from some random uprisings to the some count or duke revolting which becomes very tedious and
unimportant for the head of your awesome faimily and kingdom/empire to deal with. So i propose you could as a liege nominate (under high enough crown autority) one of your vassal to deal with this war in your name. (This could have evan be done in a way that this vassal becomes warleader and yourself gets a status of ally or even complety removed and get hostile status.) What that means is: Vassel you desigante would be honoured for your trust (imporved relations boost) and they would get the majority of prestige and war reparations/loot/ransoms (if won ofc). (Crown could take 10%). While i as a liege woundt need to micromanage small wars, save my manpower/income and i could evan still use diplomatic actions/decisions and evants that gets disabled during wars. But if vassal loses this war the liege would get 200% penalties like prestige lose, relatins penalty etc. Ofc as a liege you could intervene in the war if you see the vassal is losing and this could bring some other modifers with opinions and presitge, cassus bellies against imcompetent vassal etc.

5. A bunch of things from ck2+ and hip and some other mods like give manor titles, long truces after crusads, trais and genetics that have pros and cons, faction system, cultures and many many more...

6. One Slavic culture at Charlemagne start the would brake up similar to Norse and Visigothic.

7. A faction/decion (or something that would give you iniciative to stay a (grand)duke and vassel to your liege) and that you would support liege. You could for example support your liege during civil war and would get rewarded for it with rewoked titles of rebellios dukes. (your liege could evan bribe you out of a faction with a pledge of giving you(and/or to your dinasty) titles if you support him during a war.

8. Givign you a reason to land as many members of your dinasty as possible and that would be tied with a dynastic prestige (need to find and update who and where somedoy posted this idea, it was a great one!)

9. Nerf elective monarcy since it makes too stable realms. yes the dynaste might change, but the blob persist, which is annoying if you are part of them or border them... for example if the dynastie changes (or evan one branch of the dynastie with some other cadet branch), there would be opinion malues with all vassals and increase of independence factions etc...

10. Expand Friends and rivalies to dynasties, with kind of similar warring, evants etc that patricans have

11. More dimplatic options with your kin, so you can influence them (spand gold and presitge) aka no more will your cusin that you just landed marry this lowborn ugly slow bitch

11. i will continue and update this post as nacessery

I can see how or why but not sure. Well. Maybe when Vikings are no more on the map the ability shouldn't go away with them?

2. When searching for people you can filet /or filter/ them if they would join your courth and if needed to be bribed first.

That would make my life much easier... but perhaps too easy.

3. Expanded ''bribery. A lot of times there are people and evan relatives outside of your realm and they say they dont have any reason to move. From now on you could give them reason like offer of a bride, title, job if they come.

Yeah, it kinda 'hurts', you want to scream: 'But I have a reason I could give you! Arrrggh!' because the game won't let you make an offer. I'd like to see tradeoffs, give-and-takes etc.

4. When you become powerful and blob away, there can always be a endless series of small useless wars. Everything from some random uprisings to the some count or duke revolting which becomes very tedious and
unimportant for the head of your awesome faimily and kingdom/empire to deal with.

Or just task the marshal with it?

6. One Slavic culture at Charlemagne start the would brake up similar to norse.

Not sure.

7. A faction/decion (or something that would give you iniciative to stay a (grand)duke and vassel to your liege) and that you would support liege. You could for example support your liege during civil war and would get rewarded for it with rewoked titles of rebellios dukes. (your liege could evan bribe you out of a faction with a pledge of giving you(and/or to your dinasty) titles if you support him during a war.

It's kinda sad to watch sometimes how loyalty gains no rewards. On the other hand, your lands and titles already are the upfront 'payment' from your liege for your services.

8. Givign you a reason to land as many members of your dinasty as possible and that would be tied with a dynastic prestige (need to find and update who and where somedoy posted this idea, it was a great one!)

Nah, no such scripts. Do it manually if you want. :)

9. Nerf elective monarcy since it makes too stable realms. yes the dynaste might change, but the blob persist, which is annoying if you are part of them or border them... for example if the dynastie changes (or evan one branch of the dynastie with some other cadet branch), there would be opinion malues with all vassals and increase of independence factions etc...

There should be some ramifications when long-term dynasties lose elections in Elective.

-No it shouldnt. Its a shame only vikings can use major rivers. The difference would be that Norse (and reformed germanic) can navigate Rivers by defaut (and evan get free tech and building) while the rest should still have to research and build to get the ability. Furthermore if needed, there would be 2 types of ships (river and sea, each only able to navigate only on river or sea and build in respective buildings). But only vikings could use sea ships to navigate rivers.

- marshal could work, but would he lead your troops? AI leading your armies and thats it? while this option would defentily be an improvment, my idea give you more dymaics and option how to interact with others

- Not too easy, the point should be knowing how to filter out and then decide out of those options what is the best for your purpuse, not mindlesslly clicking x amounts of charaters to try out if they are willing to come

- ok, maybe 1 Slaivc culture at that time fram wouldnt be best, be certainly 3 (west, south and east) would be very more historycal

- not if you are the one who tiped the scales of power in or out of favor for your liege's head and crown :p

ps: wow man, just saw your list and you have some great suggesstions there

I'd rather see the longboat as a river ship that can navigate seas, from a tech point of view, but functionally maybe they were small-sized sea ships. Hmmm.

But yeah, river barges are no arcane science.

- marshal could work, but would he lead your troops? AI leading your armies and thats it?

Yeah, same as if a vassal did, really. You'd just delegate a stack with a commander, same as you did crusades in Medieval: TW.

while this option would defentily be an improvment, my idea give you more dymaics and option how to interact with others

Well, true, but there's as much clicking in gracing a vassal with your cleaning job as in raising your demesne levies, merging with retinues and sending over.

- Not too easy, the point should be knowing how to filter out and then decide out of those options what is the best for your purpuse, not mindlesslly clicking x amounts of charaters to try out if they are willing to come

They'll come if they 1) like you, 2) don't like their liege (usually has to more serious than -10 or so), 3) have some other reasons (claims).

- ok, maybe 1 Slaivc culture at that time fram wouldnt be best, be certainly 3 (west, south and east) would be very more historycal

Maybe one group instead of several, but then even between Poles and Bohemians it's like between the Welsh and the Breton culture. Small differences maybe, very small even, mutually intelligible language at that point in time (or even the same language with minor local quirks), but still some difference. Enough to mark two separate tribes. Sort of like early mediaeval Danish, Swedish and Norwegian really wasn't that far from the original Norse and certainly not the kind of differences that exist today between their separate nations, but still enough to mark a difference.

- not if you are the one who tiped the scales of power in or out of favor for your liege's head and crown :p

Saving the French crown from a simultaneous Holy Roman war for Gent and English war for Vexin (or whatever France still holds of d_Normandy or d_Aquitaine, depending on the date) as a vassal duke really is not an amusing exercise.

ps: wow man, just saw your list and you have some great suggesstions there

Thanks.
