The Pendragon Chronicles (A Chronicle of the Pendragon's Rulers of Wales)

[DensleyBlair]

I've only ever experienced this problem after trying to edit the coats of arms folder. I believe it is caused by an imbalance between the number of coats of arms and the number of entities that need them. I've always been able to get it to go away eventually, though I'm afraid it's been far too long for me to remember exactly how. I believe (and I'll be able to check definitively later) there's some sort of cache in the CoA folder that will regenerate if you delete it, which I seem to remember can fix the problem. I may be misremembering though.

That said, do you use Steam? You may be able to just verify the integrity of the game cache, which usually goes a long way to solving problems if one's brought them on oneself.

The cache comes up fine, I've sent a message to the Mod Author about a 2.1.6 version, until then this AAR is going on hiatus until the problem is fixed. Thanks for your understanding.

 

[DensleyBlair]

I'm sorry to hear that, though I'm hopefully you'll be able to find a workaround somehow. We'll all still be here when you do.

2 questions

1. Did you accidentally update?

2. Do you have an auto save of the game?

The game did accidentally update. but I think it is a problem with the Wales mod I am using. (it is on 2.2) sent a message to the creator to ask for a 2.1.6 version so I can continue with out the messed up flags and county names. Until then this is going on hiatus.

I have auto saves but they all have the same image as the one in the top left.

 

[DensleyBlair]

Just as a side note, I too am using the Cantefi Divided mod for my current game, though have been experiencing no problems. I don't know whether or not I've updated to the new version of the mod (I certainly haven't done so manually) but it may be something for you to consider in case reverting to an older version doesn't do anything to help.

Mine updated automatically I think after I had reverted to 2.1.6, I think that is what is causing the issue. Hopefully using the same mod version will fix it.

YES it worked normality has been restored. Thanks Itjzoi for sending me the 2.1.6 Link expect the first chapter for Lylr Soon.

Edit 20/10/14

Okay now it has been fixed for real this time. Thanks to Ijtzoi the creator for helping me fix the issue. Started the reign already, but little has occurred. as a result the CoA will be different in the first few images of the first chapter. anyway to quote Lord Of The Rings VICTORY WE HAVE VICTORY!!!

The Reign Of King Llyr Pendragon Part I

​

Lived 943 - 985

King of Wales 984 - 988

King of Ireland 984 - 988

King of Scotland 984 - 988

Count of Fife 975 - 985​

In truth the reign of King Lylr is short and there is little worth mentioning aside from the troubles that occurred during it. He reigned for only four years, before dying of natural causes in 988. Lylr unlike his forefathers was a master of diplomacy and had knowledge about the matters of learning and finances but little else. He was married to Sara of Desmond, but she died of Pneumonia in 978 he would never remarry. She gave him four sons, Arthur who was murdered by his grandfather at the age of 11 in 978, Meilyr who was his heir. Caldwaladr who became the Bishop of Llanidloes when he came of age due to knowledge of spiritual matters. Cai who was still young when his brother came of age, and Arthfael, who was the youngest of the lot but was being tutored in the art of finances. Since Lylr died before he could marry off some of his sons, his brother was forced to do so as such they will be talked about when we reach the reign of King Meilyr.

Lylr reign was short and troublesome; a descendent of Rhys (one of Uther’s sons) named Bardas has been gathering foreign forces for an invasion of the three kingdoms. Lylr knowing the man’s weakness for the female flesh arranged that he be murdered by some prostitutes one night. His lack of intrigue however made sure that one of the killers divulged his name for a purse of gold.

Worse was to come, while Lylr could control the majority of his vassals some of the more powerful lords began forming factions to place other lords in control of the kingdoms of Scotland and Ireland. While they never declared their intentions openly the threat still hung over the king’s head. That was until Lylr used honorary titles and his vast gold reserves to bribe the vassals to support Meilyr his heir.

Lylr was also nearly assassinated on the night of the 6th of May 984, accounts suggest that the two assassins broke into the kings chambers but were caught in the hallway by some of the Kings royal guard. A fight insured and one of the assassins was slain but the other fled, the creator of the plot was never caught.

Lylr would die four years later in May 988; he died of natural causes surprising for one in the peak of physical health. His son Meilyr would be the youngest Pendragon king taking the throne of the three kingdoms at only 18 years old 3 years younger then his ancestor Uther. Would the young King survive the intrigue of the three Kingdoms and finally achieve the Pendragon ambition to form Britannia...

Wow that was interesting seriously when that dead screen came up I was laughing . Anyway now that the CoA problem is fixed (they will be fine next time I just did not take any pictures when I played today because little happened. Anyway comments and criticism are welcome, Onward to what will probably be the longest Pendragon reign.

 

[Asantahene]

Great update Saxon! It's always a shocker when they die early like that but I guess what we should remember is that (unlike today) 45 was actually reasonably advanced in those days

Looking forward to seeing if the young king can hold his own

 

[Saxon125]

The funny thing is that he was not ill in any way, I was just sitting there and then it just came up out of the blue. Hopefully our young king should survive but knowing my luck he will end up being a vegetable. (Incapable)

The Reign of Meilyr Pendragon Chapter I

Lived 970 – 1011

King of Wales 988 – 1011

King of Ireland 988 – 1011

King of Scotland 988 – 1011

Duke of Albany 988 - 1011 ​

Many did not expect Meilyr to come to the throne at such a young age, but the abrupt death of his father forced him onto the throne. Meilyr was equally skilled in both diplomacy and warfare, with some skill in stewardship. He was a man who embodied no negative traits, and would continue to take Wales from strength to strength during his reign.

A few days after he ascended to the throne, the marriage that his father had prepared came to fruition; Meilyr was married to Beorngyth the third child of the King of England. In truth this marriage was more for her weak claim on England then anything else but the marriage was not loveless and they did have children.

In March 989, Meilyr traveled to Rome on a pilgrimage. He was moved by the holy ground he walked on and became a Zealot bent on doing the work of God.

Two years would pass with peace within the three kingdoms; it was a time of peace and prosperity but also for building and consolidation. Many believed during this period that Meilyr was gearing for war with England, in truth the chances of him pressing the claim of his wife were slim to the fact it was a weak claim, as such he was preparing to conquer counties one by one.

In order to break the dullness of peace, Meilyr arranged for a grand hunt to be organised in Gwynedd. It took place over two months and allowed the King some respite from ruling, records from the period suggest that he slew many hares during the two months and faced down a boar with a spear and slew it without a scratch.

On the 9th November, one day after the hunt had ended Meilyr found out that his wife was pregnant and next year on the 10th June a son was born named Rhys. In the following year in May 993 Beorngyth was pregnant again and two months later a daughter was born named Gwen. With the birth of a son and daughter the reign of Meilyr was off to a fine start, but would he be able to begin pushing into England and form a empire, or would England maintain its independence…

---

Just a quick chapter to get the reign started, in truth pressing Beorngyth's claim will be difficult unless I am very lucky, so I will probably start taking over English counties through claims. Comments and criticism are welcomed.

Cool AAR!
Here's to hoping Emilyr will become Emperor of Prydain soon

Welcome aboard.

He might his wife has a weak claim that can be pressed, and England is not in good shape right now.

How much of England does England actually own?

All of it bar Lincoln and soon to be Chester hint hint, I won't spoiling anything else but England goes through quite a few kings in the next chapter.
