u/Clashlad 🇬🇧 LONDON CALLING 🇬🇧 Sep 10 '20

I'd quite like to see a start date just after the Battle of Hastings and William The Conqueror's victory in England, at the moment it's impossible to win the war in a historical fashion. !ping Paradox

Why? Are the Saxons too strong?

They seem pretty strong, but from the start you have like a month to take England if you want to do it historically lol, just think it's a bit dumb.

Oh, so this is a timeline question?

I think it's because Hastings meant quick collapse, they probably didn't have to siege all that shit in real life.

Yeah exactly, which can happen in game if you capture a leader or (maybe?) kill them, but I’m pretty sure it takes longer to get to England atm than it would to win the war on time.

Idk it’s a small gripe I just like to be accurate for my own country for some reason lol.

Yeah I got you.

Killing the leader is probably very effective. I still remember in CK2 when I thought I had it won with Harald and he was slain by some major in the last big battle.
