best game ive played in years

yes, this game is awesome

however, i dont seem to understand how succession works, so i just keep assassinating people until i get the person i want. luckily you can just pay off the pope to get the piety back (although that old bastard keeps raising his ****in rates)

1) pick out a dutchy or kingdom u wanna pinch and click the 'claimants' tab

2) find a claimant who will defect to your court (not hard)

3) marry him to one of your daughters to make him part of ur house

4) now u can invade under the pretext of his claim and if u win the dude will be ur vassal! (not sure wat happens if ur invading a kingdom, but works for dutchies)

You need to do it matrilineally or you can lose the dynasty line and the claim.

you can read about it in laws page, just hover over what you want.

I'd be down for mp, but not this weekend.

What kind of rules? Start as counts? Dukes? Any limit on early cheese marriages (like Duchess Toscana or the daughter in Aquitaine), or on assassinations?

What decides what my main Kingdom is. i was originally an Irish OPM and I got the kingdom of Ireland and Wales. When my guy died his son became the King of Wales as his flag. What made him pick Wales over Ireland?

you can pick which one to make ur main title, i think it in the realm tab

So if i've played a ton of EU3, is this game a must buy?

try the demo

it sure is very polished and adds a different twist to what EU3 offered.

dont hesitate imo, buy now

Its easily the best game on release paradox has ever put out, and probably better on release than vicky 2 or hoi3 after multiple patches and expansions.

This game is so damn fun and they are still early in the patching process. I hope it is really popular so they can support multiple expansions.

**** off duke of connaught. kill urself.

Or make it look like he killed himself....he ho he ho he.
