Margaery has the Scarred trait, presumably from some kind of accident. This may have played into the Tyrells marrying her to a "lower" house like Velaryon as her value would have diminished from the very prominent scars she got. Plus Tyrells trying to suck up a bit to the new regime ofcourse.
Also she was betrothed to Maric before his death, so even though they were never married that would probably have affected her marriage prospects as well.
I really like the idea of Monford further expanding his domain into Duskendale and Wendwater Forest. He's clearly very well respected by the vast majority of the Seven Kingdoms and I think that him pushing claims against two murderous lord wouldn't be viewed as gauche.
Corlys is always a good pick. I am also a big fan of Monterys, which is the name of Monford's canonical son. I still want to see Lord Monford tame the Stepstones, though expanding your power in the Crownlands in not necessarily a bad idea, either. You should also see to the education of Aurane's son-Monford and his brother seemed to be getting on pretty well towards the end, and the lad _does_ control a rather strategically important location at a quite tender age.
in the war of the bastards king Monford ended up in an Lannister ambush before the rest of Renly's men come and defeat the lion. If I was Monford I would not even take off my armor, even during my wedding after that the PTSD would be strong... and in a RP way, the Tyrell were allies to the Lannister, and some brothers of Margery were kinda rude to monford. SO even though he is, like the new barristan Selmy, skilled and very strong, deadly even with a butter knife, welcoming the reach is a bold move... some might even say risky... especially in Dragonstone like, we don't hold the castle long enough to be sure... so not taking of the armor is a strong signal. The Seahorse is at peace right now, but do not test the patience of the lord of the tides, cause bro ate pirates for breakfast with his half-brother (well.... before the drowning part)
33:57 I love that dragon event. Their inspiration in Skyrim is completely evident as soon as they mentioned the old lady. I can still hear her voice 😂 They even use almost the exact same lines! 🤣
How is Evetho not a knight yet? My boy Evetho deserves the world. Although it is kinda cool seeing as he is Dothraki that he feels a knighthood doesn’t determine his prowess as a warrior and rejects it.
Can’t you “conquer” Crackclaw Point and give it to the Celtigars that always wanted them? This could benefit another Valyrian tradicional family and also expand your territory more. Plus you have some lore reasons to do it….
Does anyone noticed that the line of the event with old woman who saw a dragon was a dialog from the begging of the skyrim when dragonborn enters the riverwood for the first timd?
Hmmm, Barys would work as a slight reference to the Baratheon dynas but other than that there's no standout name for me. I do agree that your bastard brother's line is best renamed back to Bloodwaters. So much cooler and they need the prestige.
Glad to see the steward of Dragonstone play you went with, it fits well especially since Renly had no heir at war’s end and now still lacks a male heir. I hope something forces Monford’s hand into acting against Renly / the Baratheons as now is truly the best time to act as the dynasty is on very shaky ground.
Kindly invest in your army forces and prepare to fight for either Jon snow or renly baratheon who ever u want to fight and just buy some times by conquering more pirate
I wish we were still admiral, because then it would really make sense to go on a pirate hunting rampage. Even blame the pirates for our brothers death. Alas, such is not the case. As master of coin rebuilding spice town should be a top priority... can we raid pirates for gold? Clearing out some terrible local lords makes sense here too, expand our power base. Olenna as a girls name, Margery loves/loved her grandma
You should name your son either Corlys or Daemon, Daemon was the name of Corlys's grandfather who sided with Aegon I during the conquest, and of course Prince Daemon, The Rogue Prince.
Really enjoying this series! I'm probably late for this, but will you take on Aurane's son as a ward? I know the brothers weren't close, but the Stepstones are still an important outpost for Manford storywise so he'd probably want to ensure his nephew is safe, well educated, and that whoever is ruling as regent will be able to keep control of the land.
@@StrayKing I'm not sure how it works within the mod. But guardians can try to pass down attributes. Maybe you can try to pass along brave while he's still young?
Another amazing episode my lord King!If you're open to suggestions,please make Mya Stone's marriage matrilenial so house Baratheon could continue.If Renly fails to do so maybe Mya his aunt will be the one to continue this great house for good.We don't know what benefits this may bring!Loving your videos,do make more like this playing CK3AGOT whenever you can! Your loyal supporter Sir Viktorus
Honestly I didn't mind it; I know some folks felt like it looked too 'Fornite-style', but it's just a trailer and that kind of stuff doesn't bother me too much. I enjoyed all the other games in the series so I'm sure I will with this one as well! Just wish they would drop the 'The' lol.
Name your son Jaeherys(traditional name for boys in hous Velarion) or like your brother Auranne. And of course support Jon Targaryen (because it's time for the Velarions to regain their influence), bring the Tyrells under his banner Maybe in future take the prince, Jon's and your daughter son to raise, to change his culture to Valyrian, because Jon has a different culture, not Valyrian
I still think Monford should invest his Prestige into Diverging Cultures into: Bureaucratic Ethos, Diplomatic Court, Blood of the Dragon, Metalworkers, Sorcerous Metallurgy, Beacon of Learning, Maritime Mercantilism, and Warriors of Merit. The culture name could be "Dragonstones" to reference the territory Monford controls. Just my thoughts. For baby names I like Mordin, Hastur, and Rae'lor 🤙🏿🍻
@@StrayKing I respect that. The only reason I suggested Diverging is so you can swap multiple Tenets and enact them all at once. Instead of reformation where you can only update one tenet and then just wait 20 years before the change is in effect. Whatever you're feeling I dig, but I think it would be cool to Diverge. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my comment!!!! You're aces 🤙🏿🍻
@@StrayKingFeel free to ignore this comment. But below I'm going to post an R.P. letter to Monford from a "legendary" character who I hope will be interpreted as a "Great Merchant": "Hail and well met Lord Paramount Monford, It is I, Odric Redwyne, 7th son of the ducal house of Vinetown. Im sure my reputation as a collector of artifacts, exotic and Olde Valyrian, will have predated my missive. I would happily build or even Quest for items deserving of your glory, sire. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I was, up until very recently, the captain of "The Blue Rose", and "President in Admiralty" (or "Commodore") of my own independent trading company; separate from the Redwyne Main House. I was building Ships, Ports, and establishing routes from the Capital to Vinetown. When the war first began. I found myself conscripted by Renly, as fate would have it I was building the man the very ships he would use to sack the capital. He signed a contract that would ensure my payment, upon his Ascension. King Renly, has since defaulted 3 times. I have been forced to sell my shares to my brothers, step down as "Commodore", disband my crew, sell my ship, along with most of my belongings; to pay my men. I have seen all my men paid, sire. But I now find myself in need of sponsorship. I propose you hire me as your Antiquarian, Master of Revels, and Personal Champion. Provide me the opportunity to receive the Acclaimed Knighthood Title: Master-of-Revels/Contender. Together sire, I believe we can begin a New Golden Era for the High Valyrian People! We should abandon the caste system which sees us neglect skill. Instead we should return to the weapon/armour/and spell crafting that made Valyria, Valyria. Our society should be focused on processing the Bureaucracy of Diplomacy, and War. I feel Dragonstone should be a Beacon to the Empire. A place where great minds such as you and dare I say sire, myself. Convene, to advance society further. To play the Game of Thrones. The best. Bravo my lord on your maneuvering, a finer player I've never seen. I eagerly await an opportunity to discuss matters further. I am ever at your service, - Odric Redwyne" The quotes would be the letter below are the ideal stats for Odric, they are kind of strong. But I feel the "Great Person" that is Odric is deserving of stats that would make you consider marrying a future daughter to him lol: Age: 32 Diplomacy: 12 Martial: 13 Stewardship: 21 Intrigue: 6 Learning: 31 Prowess: 31 Perks: Witch, Erudite Oracle, Calm, Gregarious, Ambitious, Eager Reveler, Aspiring Blademaster, Herculean, Genius, Avaricious, Architect, Scholar, Whole of Body, One Eyed, Excommunicated, Dynastic Kinslayer, Murderer, Strong, Athletic, Journaler, Inapetitic, Drunkard, Logistician, Organizer, Loyal
I also feel like it would be savvy to accept the claims offered by the church. But in addition. We should seize all the De Jure territory of Massey's Hook. And matrilineally marry all future daughters. The Paramouncy of Massey's Hook shall always remain with Driftmark. But future children, regardless of gender, can quite literally cultivate the Hook. Children of Monford, they would be the true inheritors of his Dynastic Vision, since they will automatically become the Culture Monford would Diverge. I think the Dynastic Name Velaryon would be a good name for the culture. And Velaryean could refer to the people. Which fully differentiates them from the House, Velaryon.
@@StrayKingI'm really sorry for posting so many comments. But I went through and tried to edit the letter I wrote to make sense for a character in game to suggest to Monford; a grand Cultural Renaissance for his people. I know Sorcerous Metallurgy requires the Faith be cool to witches. I don't know if there are Mods to allow for all Tenets to be purchased for Prestige regardless of vanilla restrictions, if not I feel Metalworkers would be cool. Also Philosopher Culture could replace Beacon of Learning as I think that tenet requires you be Persian lol, but Philosopher Culture doesn't have any restrictions. You could probably utilize Metalworkers to get Monfords Prowess to 100!!! I don't know if you read the post above, let alone this one. But if you happen to, thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! You're work is excellent, and your voice reminds me of Tomer from MTGGoldfish. Which I mean as a compliment, because y'all are both some dope Canadians 🤙🏿🍻 Potential Culture Names: Velaryon, Imperial Valyria, Draconic-Valyria Person from Culture: Velaryean, Draco-Valyrian, Imperial Valyrian Family Member: Velaryon Pronounce these however you wish lol

You could name your son Vaegon, a mix between Vaemond and Aegon. To show your support for the Targaryens of course.
Give Dragonstone to monfords daughter. The one marrying the Targaryen heir
Oh that's actually a really good idea!
I don't think the culture and faith would allow that, and Jon Snow would still have a claim on the duchy, but still a good idea.

Came to the comments to say this but you said it first.
I'm so unobservant lol, absolutely did not notice this!
But do you get to the Cloud district very often oh what Am I saying of course you don't

How is Evetho not a knight yet? My boy Evetho deserves the world.
Although it is kinda cool seeing as he is Dothraki that he feels a knighthood doesn’t determine his prowess as a warrior and rejects it.
Lmao the way you defended Monford slander😂 anyway im glad youre enjoying this playthrough, Monford journey had been incredible so far
Renly's traveling the country to try and unite the relm and you invited the powerful nobles to Dragonstone... I'd say it sends a message!
maybe educate the son of aurene... loved that dude
I really enjoy this series. Perhaps House Redwyne next? If you're on a kick of families that are historically naval powerhouses.
Possibly! One of these days I want to do a House Dustin playthrough though, one of my personal favourite houses.
Can’t you “conquer” Crackclaw Point and give it to the Celtigars that always wanted them?
This could benefit another Valyrian tradicional family and also expand your territory more.
Plus you have some lore reasons to do it….
Does anyone noticed that the line of the event with old woman who saw a dragon was a dialog from the begging of the skyrim when dragonborn enters the riverwood for the first timd?
Garlan Tyrell in this timeline is such a downgrade from the gigachad that is book Garlan.
29:35 Given that it's happening at a WEDDING, this feels alarmingly close to 'the Lannisters send their regards' territory
Hmmm, Barys would work as a slight reference to the Baratheon dynas but other than that there's no standout name for me.
I do agree that your bastard brother's line is best renamed back to Bloodwaters. So much cooler and they need the prestige.
yo 40 minutes i appreciate you dawg fr love this series
I'm a man of the people, what can I say :D

Name yours Son Corlys, Alyn, or Addam.
I hope that Monford will have a son also i think you should upgrade your court. You can gain tons of health boost and stuff

your giant ''knight'' is not a knight. make him pls. also i think it would be roleplay true to take as a ward the child of your brother.
Btw, the name the son either Daemon or Corlys.
it not a Westeros wedding without a little murder XD
I love the agot series so much. Trying to raise a sword of the morning would be a cool next series
You need to put Jon Targaryen on the Iron Throne with your daughter as his queen
hey i was just wondering how did you shatter the realm on your house arryn playthough, i want to do one of my own but i don't know how to do that
I did it manually through console commands and debug menu, it took quite some time!
Anddddd we’re backkkkkk.
R.I.P. for our bother in this story, but i just guess even after the wedding was over, he had too much to drink 🍸 and went over bored .
how about House Massey of Stonedance? - they atacked you, and that landarm would be look nice to be integrated inyou paramoncy

@@StrayKing i wish they kept the name Dreadwolf tbh.
Yeah same, I think that was a more cool name. If they can do something cool with the game those it's going to be a pretty good time for cRPGs though!
@@StrayKing we can only hope
Caesarion would be a sick name for your male heir. In real life he was the son of Cleopatra VII and Julius Caesar.
I second the motion
I need the next episode now 😩
When did he get 1900 gold?
It is a bit sad that Aurane was legitimised and made a cadet branch of House Velaryon. If you could fix that retroactively, it would be nice.
Yes
I think you should call your son Aegon, why not take inspiration from the Targaryens and push your own Valyrian claim on the throne?
'Torrentine is Independent.'
I see an option for expansion.
Also you should probably reward some of your Commanders with Knighthood.
Name your son Jaeherys(traditional name for boys in hous Velarion) or like your brother Auranne. And of course support Jon Targaryen (because it's time for the Velarions to regain their influence), bring the Tyrells under his banner
