The Obligatory CK2 Strange Screenshot Thread

[RenevB]

This happened to me just now. The Hansa forms, which is normal and I get informed of it. The game somehow claims they formed under the approval of one Aethelfrith. The only even remotely eligible person of that name, however is the king of Castille (!).

The weird thing isn't really the glitch in the wrong blesser (is that even a word) of the forming of the Hansa, but that a Godwin somehow makes it to king of Castille (inherited from his mother) and is Castillian.

The HRE is ruled by a Von Zähringen by the way.

Is he? Isn't he usually portrayed with brown hair and beard like a frenchman, italian or brittishman or something. Never seen a blonde jesus.

Germans can have brown hair ;P just as most non-Germanic Europeans can have blonde hair. Honestly I think it's a bit of a myth that only one set of European people has a monopoly on features. Because honestly, they're all a mixed bag as far as I can tell. Especially on the Continent.

But anyway, doesn't matter.

Yeah, but Jesus didn't live in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. He is Jewish and lived in Israel 1900 years earlier.

Everybody pretty much knows that Jesus isn't white. But, when depicting him, pretty much every people of every race has depicted him looking like them. There's black Jesus, White Jesus, Greek Jesus, Asian Jesus (yes, that is actually a thing ;P ), it's just a matter of what the artist is familiar with and creating something a people will have an easier time connecting with.

So, it really doesn't matter in the end. Although perhaps in the future people will start moving in the direction of historically accurate depictions of a Levantine-esque Hebrew Jesus.

Well, I guess she's into older men.

Yeah but if you say someone look germanic you generally mean blonde hair. In fact brunettes are more common in germany but the idea is as such.

The player's character is boning his own daughter in law

Scandalous but par for the course in CK2

 

[Andre Massena]

I assume the king is cheating on his son with his son's wife?

Nah that's the king of italy that's her lover. The girl is obviously the player characters daughter.

Oh, well that seems like an effective way to make sure your heir has heirs...
It's far from an uncommon thing throughout history as I recall.

Ok then to cheer up the situation, here's some seduction in the Wild Wild Wallachia...

For about a decade I was "missing" my retinue of about 10k housecarls that went on the holy Crusade for Khotan. I finally found them using the bar tab thingy on the right that I never use.

Yes, I wonder who hates me so much?

Well crap...

The Fylkir (the Scandinavians reformed the faith, not my Saxons) called a Great Holy War for Andalusia. I didn't join, so when the pop-up announcing a successful war arrived, I went to see who won. I definitely wasn't expecting this:
