I've played thousands of hrs of CK2, modded and unmodded, and in each game Christianity is powerful (if it's not in major decline). It is so alluring to my vassals and other kingdoms that they willfully convert to Christianity. Sometimes during wars they'll convert to save their bums and invalidate a war they're losing to a Christian, sometimes they just decide to drop paganism at peace time. Whenever I play as a pagan, I often struggle to just keep my realm pagan as vassals decide they want to become Christian, even if our unreformed religion is pretty strong (moral authority)
I'm wondering, as I approach reformation:
In my current game, playing as Norse/Germanic, is there any way I (as a player) can emulate this powerful influence unto the AI Christian factions? Can I do anything to make Paganism so powerful that the whole of Christianity willful decides to drop Christianity in favour of paganism?
The more recent Religious Reformation mechanics saw some interesting religions customizations which sound as though they may help? The Dogma one, fe, and the ones that enable you to send missionaries. I've never tried these, are they worth it? Will they have the effct I'm looking for? I don't really want to be microing all this myself tho, sending out missionaries and such, because that will just become tedious. If the missionary options do work, will other Pagan lords send out missionaries (en mass) converting Christians? Or will I be stuck with the tedious task myself?
Any tips?
