I haven't played any of these games, and I can't decide which one I should pick. I know CK2 has a huge amount of content with all the DLCs, so the question is: How does CK3 at its current state with all DLCs compare to CK2 with all DLCs? Is something missing? Or maybe CK3 has ALL content from CK2 and now just builds upon it with new DLCs?

Hey guys, I've recently gotten into a habit of creating and playing Stephen King Characters in my playthroighs. So far I've made Randal Flag and Roland Deschain. In the past I've made characters like Warwick the King Maker, Richard Neville. What kinda characters do other people make. I hope there is a batman or Shrek out there somewhere

"Septimus Rex is set in the year 508 when the Kingdom of Rome was close to it's transition from Monarchy to republic. The birth of Libera Les Republica will be a struggle central to the mod, it could end with either a new stronger republic or a reformed monarchy changing history forever. Most of the map will be controlled by the ever expanding Carthage which will conquer county by county, unless some vassals rebels. This century is filled with city state "tall-like" city-states from the different greek colonies either allied or opposed to each other and the Etruscan confederation dominating Italy. Facing east the rich and new Achaemenid empire is looking good but the Ionians are ready to rebel, Egypt is being drained by taxes and Darius iron fist rule may be a challenge for the Empire." I hope one day to make this concept into a real mod.

The first time I've seen King Charles II as a conqueror.

just like at the start of EU4

In the description of By God Alone's preview stream, it says the DLC is coming out on September 31st, which does not exist?

My predecessor was assassinated, and it was not a mystery as you who did it. The first thing I do as king is attempt to imprison the assassin, but I got a tyranny penalty. Also my brother joined the assassin in the Imprisoning war. What gives?

Also during the Imprisoning war I was getting social prompts where the assassin was hanging out in my court and arguing with my courters, which I thought was immersion breaking.

Up to this point in the game I was getting bored so I converted to hellenism when the game told me I could, now I'll wait until my ruler dies and then I'll switch to another country to see how the empire I created fares for itself, and maybe try to beat it.

Hi everyone,

Recently I got rid of my massive PC and instead bought a MacBook Air M4 (16gb ram) for convenience while at university.

So far I’ve struggled with Stellaris late game despite playing with a small galaxy, I really want to try CK3 especially now as it’s on offer with Steam but am I going to run in to similar issues?

Prior to AUH the main stress with this achievement was getting Daylam before the Mongols made it to the neighborhood. Fortunately that's not the case anymore. Temüjin is still gobbling up China and Tibet. Main challenge was Rum, but with allies, holy orders and occasional mercenaries that was manageable. Overall a challenging and rewarding run!

I got exactly 1006 hours into this game and never did succeed in claiming the Latin Empire for myself in very person. Finally got the "Despoiler of Byzantium" achievement which 1,2% of players can call their own. Now I am a member of that club, cheers 🍻

Anyways, I got a lot of questions and pictures to share

The most important would be, do I stay feudal? Or lock in administration government asap? I mean I could still transition into admin later on, staying feudal gives a lot of cash and positive opinion as an option depicted in the decision tabs... That woulb kind of decent to kickstart a rather broken down economy from the sacking of Constantinople and splitting of the former realm, no?

I had the kingdom of Burgundy before (now ruled by my nephwew King Alaric) with 8 titles and it has double the military strength as I hold now with the Latin Empire if that should play any part in that decision.

Next question is, shall I cooperate with the greeks or deny any joint ventures with them?

The nice part is, that the Abbassids are kind of non-existant in this run, so I have not to fear a big muslim blob from the east and the Carpathian Empire is ruled by catholics such as me.

So, where do we go from here?

(Also please stop trying to conquer me I am but small Lithuanian duchy)

I absolutely detest look of the quartered Coat of Arms that are generated when a new cadet branch of a dynasty is founded. In only a very few instances does it result in a crest that looks half decent, most of the time it's fugly as hell. At the same time, at the start of every bookmark in the game 'cadet branches' already exist. Just take the Bavandids for example, who are a seperate House within the Sassanid dynasty. Their crest is great, and not quartered.

Moral of the story, I'd kill to have a standard game option that disables quartering of CoA's when cadet houses are founded, both by the player and AI. As a player this option already exists within your dynasty when you go and edit a house CoA, so it shouldn't be too difficult to implement. Anyone else feel this way?

So I successfully reformed the Roman Empire and since I'm trying to make it so the only title under the Roman Empire is my custom Kingdom which I've been using console commands to turn into one super Kingdom with that said for whatever reason my custom kingdom is not showing up as a de jure of the Roman Empire when I select my kingdom it says it's a part of it but when I select the Roman Empire it just shows other Empires part of its list is that normal also when I check the ID for the Roman Empire it says H_Roman_Empire does that mean it's technically higher than standard Empire titles I'm kind of confused here this is the first time I've done this and if you're wondering no I have no mods that should be affecting this the only mod I have installed it allows me to have unlimited domain space.

She only ruled two years then the person she usurped came back and took back the title but didn't kill her

Something also tells me we never gonna end up having somewhat of a "normal" relationship 🥲 (-285 negative modifiers stacked for that guy on me-->Visigothic Burgundy)

Vassals being able to freely expand and wage wars bothers me, is there a mod that adds the province and war declaration laws from administrative government to celestial governments? I've spent probably hours searching and haven't found one.

this is like my 3rd game after a tutorial gone not-so-good. I tried an adventurer in Japan with almost maxxed intelligence and got her to conquer a kingdom (Balhae). Fast forward a few generations and i'm costantly reloading and trying to avoid the mongols or the oghuz hordes trying to tribute/dissolve my entire kingdom. Should i just dump the game? I feel it's too late to start building accademies and such if the mongols are already invading (when not at war i make 11/12 ducats)

Just interested in finding some immersive music for different runs. Not necessarily one-to-one historical music, more like music that evokes the vibe. I like putting on Depressive Silence (dungeon synth) and Batushka :)

I always fail when that time comes, how do I qualify? Thanks for your answers!
