      ​@rahidplays9010 then after the event you'll be able to get the convert action on anyone in your house. Go for adults of the house because you need a certain % to have a coven which gives boosts to health & fertility to all house members

    When I play for dynasty members, the daughters are for seizing the crown through matrilinear marriage and schemes, and sons are landed after you conquer something. It's not the most optimal strategy but helps organize the expansion.

      Disinherited sons can help when marrying female rulers, setting up uour dynasty on thrones throughout Europe. Generally, this achievement isn't as hard if playing a Catholic ruler.

    The easiest way to do this is just to win every crusade and put a member of your dynasty on the throne. And then ally them so they can establish a solid rule while you help them deal with wars

    I know that "Dynasty of many Crowns" is pretty difficult, but as I had to content with the "Founding a Witchcoven" one many times when my dynasty had many hundred members let me just tell you what a ridiculous grind that one can be. I mean there comes a point where it starts to snowball as other witches educate their own children but damn... you are lucky to have this one this early in the game.

    When your dynasty gets big and powerful enough they’ll be marrying each other anyways to combine power. It happened in my game but I started in France and took over the world installing my family members as kings and dukes everywhere I could. And twin is always a good trait to get if you want a large family/dynasty

      You don't need Ironman to get achievements anymore, that means you just need 10 kingdoms out of your de jure empire given to dynasty members and grant independence. After that just go back to your save file. Arguably the hardest if you do it the fair way though, without forming an empire.

    After a while tracking down your dynasty members and who you need to kill in order for them to inherit becomes impossible without using an excel spreadshit (or otherwise noting it down). Totally worth it though, as it's still the most enjoyable way to play the game for me (got the idea from your "ruling Europe from the shadows" video and trying it out currently with a tall Bohemia -and a cheat character along with tons of save scumming; can't help myself...).

    This was easy for me when I played England, I conquered scotland, wales and ireland, and france will be next since I have a claim on it, I thought it was going to be a long siege since I don't have strong allies(my only ally was Leon), but when I landed my troops in normandy and regrouped them to siege Paris I luckily captured the King of france making my warscore from 11% to 100% real quick ending the war, I created the empire of france and britiannia in order for me to gain a claim on aquitaine, britanny, and arles, I conquered the 3 kingdoms again. Finally, my character was the emperor of france and britannia, I gave the kingdom of scotland, ireland, wales, britanny, aquataine, arles, and france to all my relatives, I was about to take the Iberian kingdoms but its was already 1453 which is the time the game ends since I'm playing ck2 without dlc. Imagine just because I luckily captured a king I became an emperor lol😂

    I had a fun playthrough where i managed to get this, started in italy as the duke of tuscany, usurped italy, decided to move to Sicily, so i gave italy to a brother, formed sicily without all the dejure moved to napoli made the sicilian parliment then swore fealty to the Byzantines, warred italy back, usurped the byzantine empire, warred the papcy and stole the popes hat, formed reformist christanity and named myself the head of faith since i owned both rome and Constantinople, made it communion, armed pilgrims, and monastic, then crusaded for isreal. Holy war for alexandria, duchy holy war for tunis. Which allowed me to mend the schism and reform the roman empire. Afterward my vassels started conquering north through bulgaria and russia, and having mended the schism most of western europe bent the knee. Having done basically everything i decided to just destroy the empire titles which granted everyone independance allowing me to grab dynasty of many crowns since my family had become fairly wide with just shy of 200 members i was giving titles to telatives the whole playthrough so yeah almost a perfect run in my opinion i loved stealing the popes hat to then become the new pope

    Crete, Cyprus and the Canaries are all kingdoms that are small and easy to conquer. I have in the past gotten the duchy of the aegean islands minus the county of Abydos (which is on mainland Anatolia) but plus the county of Euboea (who I granted to a count and transferred vassalage to the duke of the Aegean Islands) and grant the duke as a vassal to the King of Crete (I had an empire title by that point), and let dejure drift do the work. Then you're truly an island nation. Might as well try take that island duchy between yemen and somalia as well
