I play alot of EU3 and HOI3 and while I owned Crusader Kings I never actually played it (got stuck on my to do list).
I am now trying to sink my teeth into CK2 and while I have worked out the basics of how the interface works I´m still having a pretty aimless experience.
So far I have started as a minor noble in western Iceland (where I cam from), I tried to get claims on eastern Iceland (my own liege). Is this the right way to expand? or am I missing something to do with inheritage or politics.
My second game test was as the King of Denmark. I fabricated claims on Lubeck and took it over, then I gave some land to my many sons. Is this a good thing? Bad? Will this break up the kingdom when the King dies? (as happened in some cases).
Dont get me wrong, I am liking the game alot, its just that currently I have no concept of a strategy to follow.
With EU3 I pretty much know what I want to do and more importantantly how I go about it. With CK2 being brand new, I wander aimlessly.
Any tips? on how to build a strategy (for any goal really, I dont mind more test games).
