Take Holland, a county larger than most Duchies and make a Dutch Empire, or most likely die trying, being chased from your lands, crying like a little girl.

Also, trying to build Carthage again ;).

Does being the independant duke of both lorraines, brabant holland and gelre count? :D All done by the reign of Dirk II. Dirk I was not very imaginative when it came to names. :rofl:

A Carthage AAR might be good. Conquering or starting as? :eek:

And I'm leery of modding my game too much - DniD seems to have inheritence issues, I'm really not keen on having to dance around.

Theoretical nations must always be conquered, never created, or they don't fit in with the world around them.

Play as the Prince of Peryaslavl and form Russia. Mod dynasty as Monomakh to distinguish from other Rurikovich. Only condition: do NOT become Byzzie vassal.

Or: mod game and play Jewish Khazars.

If you're thinking of starting a comedy AAR you blatently have to start the 1066 scenario as the Count of Monferrato.

Check out this bad boy!

The comic potential is immense!

(and for those of you who think that this would lead to a short AAR, in my current CK game this guy's descendants became Kings of er....Sweden...)

In fact - there's a goal for you. Start as Monferrato and aim to become King of Sweden :D

Finnish rules Carthage, do the impossible.
Start with some swede, have a Finnish vassal with Finnish culture converted into Catholic, conquer Carthage and create Finnic kingdom of Africa.
That is something so absurd that it could even succeed. :rofl:

You know, north of Helsinki is the city of Vanda/Vantaa, and it is possible that some vandals once inhabited it... :rolleyes:

I think we have a winner! :D

Quick Peanut Poll (thats you guys)

Shall we try this? Vote Yay or Nay. Majority will see. If it's a majority nay, continue to suggest and I will forward a new one.

It's 3-2 since I'm not counting votes in quotes :p And I think any honestly serious AAR is beyond my grasp. I don't have enough time to do it the justice some have already.

That said though, I smell a lot of dark humour. I'm not going to be trying to use catchphrases, poop jokes, or other such tired tropes of the genre. No, I'm going to be doing actual funny stuff :p
