The Obligatory CK2 Strange Screenshot Thread

[Tavior]

What point was that?

I almost never see a nice orthodox reflecting post-1000 start in that region because pagan will just flip between pagan until something silly happens.

So it would be bizarre to see a "nice" border starting from Charlemagne Date.

And it is 90% likely to not be the start he used for his screenshot (aqua).

Nearly all of my games are Charlemagne Date at least for me. So I have little experience to suggest otherwise.

So I made friend with this very good kid who reminded me of my father...... wait what?

And like I said, it was not a game started in the CM start. So what your experience suggests is irrelevant.

CAN YOU JUST DIE ALREADY PLEASE ??

Spoiler

The whole freaking world knows that I want to kill her, can't I just send one of my dozens of conspirators brutally murder her in her house ?
I'm pretty sure that even the Aztecs know that I want her to be dead

 

[Ciniod]

Hahaha, she isn't even paranoid, and has shit for intrigue.

Why are you after her?

 

[LeSingeAffame]

Why are you after her?

She's married to a guy I want my future heir to be married with (he has like 25 stewardship and is a genius, which I need to keep my 14 counties demesne intact)

Maybe it'd look like a stupid question, but why you don't just arrest her, execute and force-marry her husband to your heir?
Or, on contrary, find an another genius, breed the heir and teach him up to that stewardship?

It's gonna be a bit tyranny-heavy, but I guess I won't have any choice.
I would have joined the Satanists and kill her that way, but I need the Hermetics to cure my all-too frequent depressions / stress
I need a very big amount of stewardship to keep that demesne limit, so it's not that easy - so far I've been able to have at least 12-13 demesne limit, but my current heir only has 15 stewardship and his wife 16.

Losing 20 relation points for arresting and executing a foreign woman, which has broken their marriage also isn't that bad, especially if you lose 10 points with everyone in the Kingdom each time you fail in killing, and, according to her relation towards you, you lost 26 times (because with victim you lose 100 points per murder attempt).

I don't have any "Dishonorable" modifier with anyone in my realm, probably because the incapables named "Plot backers" still did not even try to kill her. All the "tried to assassinate me" come from one of my backers being drunk and telling everyone I want to kill her.
Yup, 900% plot power, and no assassination attempt. I guess I'll just do it the old fashioned way, with a royal axe into the head

Good to know.
But still, is it worthy to spend so much time, relation and money on breeding the heir with genius trait when it's hard to maintain by generations and you can get it by education and foci events?

 

[faiuwle]

You can avoid drunken blabbing by just cancelling the plot before you click on the button in the event. Then you just relaunch the plot and everyone joins back up and it's no problem.

Probably not, but I'm a bit stubborn (which gives even more stewardship !)

Wow, I did not know that. Thanks !

I was using the console to make my particular area of the ERE overpowered, but I'm fairly sure that It had nothing to do with this.

It made me go wait, what?

If you are wondering, it was the Karling's fault.

Hey, look, it's the reformation!
I'm not sure if current secret religions are pretty weird or if this is just super rare thing, but damn it's awesome to have Cathar reformation. All hail feminism!

Considering the "Attempted Murder" modifiers I guess you have tried often enough to kill her.

If she had not only 3 intrigue, survival would not even be that extremely unlikely. For best murder results, do not auto-invite. Instead, sort the plotters by Intrigue and only invite those with high intrigue, until you are solid over 100% plot power. In case of persons that generally hated, maybe even 200% but I don't think even then more then 200 will speed up the killing attempts, it will only reduce the chance of a positive outcome once the killing attempt is made.
