This Monday, we'll be doing an Old Gods feature stream. This time, Technologies

[zombieflanders]

You can fix the mod 'sticking' problem by removing spaces from mod file names. For instance "Keyboard Shortcuts" needs to be renamed to "Keyboard_Shortcuts", both in the .mod file, the mod folder, and the text within the .mod file needs to be corrected to reference the new file name. Its annoying, but it can be fixed in 30s.

Thanks! Yet another example of your awesomeness, your tips/LPs here and on Reddit have been damn fine work.

Will we be able to watch it even if we can't be there for the "live" time?

 

[Talq]

You can replay it by going to the link in the OP. If its moved on, it should be in the list at the RHS.

Italian empire was irritating. How is that bigger than a kingdom ?..also its so small.....i wonder what they changed regarding the HRE title problem (refering mostly to the start situation of the 3 or 4 frankish kingdoms).
I fear an italian empire outside an HRE empire will be a pretty common occurence.

It doesn't look like it will be too common. Presumably there will be special requirements like Francia, and judging by how Lotharingia and Italy united in several different parts of the stream without founding Italia it looks like there will be some limiting mechanic. I'm guessing Paradox has put in something that keeps it from happening every time a Carolingian dies.

I don't understand why they don't just add the Kingdom of Italy to de jure Francia.

That's what I said, it would solve needing special requirements on both and an extra title, but I guess it works either way. I just wonder what the CoA could possibly be? Surely not a Roman Eagle? :laugh:

One limit could be culture= Italian (the Karlings were Frankish thus the enthusiasm for calling their continually reorganising kingdom Lothargia.) they could also add in others like hold k_sicily. They did seem to suggest an event needed to make the HRE (thus east francia didn't form it).

It could have been done like I did. It would effectively end up being a two-kingdom Empire, that while still small makes at least some sense.

Maybe something like capital = rome or a county thats usually part of another kingdom.
The suspense is killing me.

I think that's a near certainty, and definitely makes sense given what we saw in the stream. I have to admit I was pretty psyched to see the House d'Asti throw out the Franks and establish an independent Italian Kingdom.(they might have been Lombards, but oh well)

Great stream. Not much new info, but it was great fun to watch you guys play. Shame about the bugs. Next time you could play as some pagan other than norse or maybe as Karolingians.
