Arumba knows, he's a really good player on youtube and he just started a new Ck2 series, watch that.

And he has hundreds of clips on his youtubepage watch as much as you feel like, but remember the older stuff are the more likely it is that it has changed.

 

[Neta1991]

l am watching his clips and those questions are those he didnt answer.... l watched till episode 11 on tutorial.

7. can l change capital if so then how? plz just answer these questions if you can

 

[Groogy]

There is a button you can press that looks like a crown in the province view which will show up if you own the province and can move your capital there.
Also check out the wiki page about capitals: http://www.ckiiwiki.com/Capital

Just click on the county you/your allies/your enemies are sieging. You can´t see it if you aren´t participating in the war.

kk l found it... is it possible to merge selected fleets? cause the load capacity is not big so l thought lf l merge them then it will be bigger but it doesnt work....

 

[Neta1991]

If they're in the same sea zone or the same port, select them all and click the merge button.

You can tick and untick what DLC is active on the launcher.
I think the only exception is coat of arms DLC, as these seem to lock when you start the game.

anyone quick plz! ty

Perhaps give people more than 10 minutes to answer?

 

[Neta1991]

do l have to claim territory to be able to declare war? l used a guy to claim territory but its been 2 years and still nothing.... must l press someting to make it happen? or must l just wait? kk srry l wait but if u know the answer then answer plz must l press the diplomatic territory on map and the yellow colors are the ones l can claim right?

Before I go any further, I must say... these are some of the most noobish (but not stupid, there is no such thing as a stupid question in my opinion) questions I have ever seen.

First of, let's explain how you declare war.:
In order to declare a war, you need a Casus Beli also know as CB, frabricating a claim is a way of aquiring a CB.

Secondly, the step is rather simple, you go to the diplomacy view of the character you wish declare war on simply press the button that reads "Declare war" and game will show you a screen which shows what happens if you win, if you white peace out of the war (think of white peacing as a draw), or what happens when you surrender.

Yellow colors on the diplomacy map view are people you currently have CB against.
(Rememder, this is for CK2)

Did you really play the tutorial? Where you are the king of Castille and have to conquer the Canaries? That explains a lot of your questions. But anyway, it can take up to decades to fabricate a claim, depending on how good your chancellor is, but with a great degree of randomness.

[Neta1991]

how do l know where the character is? where can l press to zoom to location?

 

[Keizer Harm]

Neta, you should play and finish the tutorial before asking any more questions.

 

[loup99]

how do l know where the character is? where can l press to zoom to location?

Neta, I know it can be hard to get into the game and all, but look at the tutorial once again, look into Youtube videos and the wiki.

 

[Neta1991]

l already played the tutorial.... and watched youtube but l dont remember which part they showed. how do l assassinate someone after people help me? where to press? l sieged and occupated but they offered peace and the war ended but l didnt conquer anything why? l won though and won some money and other stuff but no territories
