The Obligatory CK2 Strange Screenshot Thread

Also, could you please explain why it is that the Basque Cathar ruler of Germany is calling himself a Sultan instead of a King? I'm genuinely curious.

There's a bug with the er... localisation or whatever it's called of King/Sultan/Shah etc... it freaked me out when I saw a Shah of England die in battle against me I was checking my gold to wipe out said Shah's family before realising it was an anglo-saxon catholic.

Huh.

Well that was a long and eventful game!

Death by snoo snoo.

Best thing? When the second option happens, your king is tagged as "Died in an accident".

So at first I was mildly amused, because one of King Louis the Stammerer's son's who had ended up in Spain somehow and after Muslims had conquered wherever he was he ended up in a Muslim court where he became Andalusian(while still remaining Catholic). He later pressed an adventurer's claim on France and won, leading to a Turbaned Sultan of France. However, that's not the weird part. While looking at his screen I noticed this:

I have absolutely no idea how that happened, as King Louis never had any land in Andalusia that he ruled over so that he might have had the "convert to subjects culture" event that I know of, and I don't recall him ever looking like that while he was alive, so I have a feeling that something glitched when his son took France.

Keeping it all in the family

The apparently hereditary archbishopric of Brabant. Slightly modded game, as you will note.

Behold, the current Archbishop, Randolph II, whose brother is Grandmaster of the Knights Hospitaller:

And whose other brother, Reginald, was Archbishop before him, inheriting from his father, Archbishop Thomas

And whose heir is Michael, his uncle, who is the son of Randolph I, first Archbishop of Brabant and the brother of Thomas, the second Archbishop. Surprisingly, he has no children, but no doubt Randolph II will do his duty!

Funny thing is his father inherited and his father is Estonian so he would have been Estonian after his father dies the next in line would b his brother who is mordvin.

I've had a Polish HREmperor for 40 years straight, no end in sight.

This is the first of them:

The Crusade for Greece was won by...the count of Gwynedd :mellow:

 

[Onisuzume]

Aberffraws, the new Karlings?
Had one in my game who became king of West Francia.
A few generations later and only two Karlings remained with claims on that crown.

 

[alxeu]

Welcome the groom, and the... groom?

Dunno who the lady is, because the Doge just married himself.

So he married the person he loved most? Mazel Tov!

This is a bug, you should report it in a bug forum.

The Abberfraw dynasty are definitely primus inter pares, first amongst equals, in the courts of Europe. From an alphabetical perspective, at least. Only the Aardvark dynasty could top them.

 

[antigravitycat]

those Karlings...

wish I didn't have a son...

Sooo... my Craven child character bullies and beats up another child chracter, despite the fact the fact that the latter is Strong and Brave?

(I've decided to make him my rival. He has a pretty neat claim.)

Bullies are often cowards. Besides that, your the KING. He's only a courtier. What did you expect him to do when the King decides to bully him? Beat up the King?

Considered the fact that the father of said child waltzed in&out of my previous character several times over and maimed him, I would have expected the opposite to happen.
