  • @Awesomewithaz
    @Awesomewithaz 7 місяців тому +274

    My favorite move, because running an empire is too hard for me personally, is building an empire with one strong Kingdom and then purposely allowing a family member to depose me and take over as emperor and then I just play a loyal vassal while running my own kingdom

      Better even to lose that empire to someone outside your family, as then you don't just get the 2 renown for them being emperor, but the X renown for every vassal of your dynasty he has. Aswell as not losing dynasty head to him.

      Learn how to distribute titles in a way that if rebellion occurs you lock up most of the nation/micro distribute your vassals vassals to ensure they have too much strife to ever revolt against you.

    Trying to keep your liege's dynasty in power and keeping the kingdom cohesive is such an under appreciated personal goal in ck3. Their should be an achievement for being a loyal vassal - like support and win three liege wars at once or something.

    Some tips. To see how large a realm is you only have to put your mouse in the shield of the person or in the map. To avoid your liege granting you vassals grant the duchy of the granted vassal to him, because your liege tried granting you those vassals because you were the rightful liege of them.

  • @evanneal4936

    So the reason he didn't create any kingdom titles is because the game mechanics make it so that if you have a title equal to or greater than him (like the kingdom of Ireland while hes also JUST a king and not emperor) you will become independent, so he cant give you a kingdom title without becoming a emperor first or else you would be independent (this is why normandy flips to England every time William conquers it) he also may have didn't create it because he would have had to hold it himself directly because of the game mechanics i just explained. Keeping it himself would cause a lot of negative modifiers and there's a high chance of loosing the title due to inheritance and whoever inherited that title would automatically become independent also unless it was the same person who inherited the main title he originally had as well.(for example if he has 2 sons, 1 would get whales and the other gets Ireland, unless he had only 1 son to inherit both titles or had the proper succession law to prevent loss or splitting of titles) . You don't have to give away kingdom titles FIRST in order to form an empire. Form it first, then give titles. I know this game mechanic is true because it happened to me in several games and i couldn't figure out why for the longest time until finally i did. Thought it was a good idea to share. I know almost everything about paradox game mechanics. Especially ck3.

    Tip if you want to give your liege counties: Grant the county to an old ass dude (60+ usually does the trick) without children and grant him independence. This will make him your liege's vassal instead of yours and when he dies your liege will inherit the land. This way you could "grant" your liege the entirety of wales like you wanted :)
    (Edit: just tested it in wales just to confirm it for myself and it does work. Also should try to make sure that the dude you grant it to is not educated in intrigue or learning since these have fertility perks, naturally lustful and fecund are risky aswell. But for the most part 60+ mf's are pretty infertile)

    By far, my favourite games have been when I've played loyal vassals. I played a Finland game where our liege was utterly incompetent and we were being attacked by 3 or 4 people at once because of it. I had to deal with those forces personally every single time, either by joining the war or intercepting as a neutral force. Eventually I was elected as King against my will.

    TIP: If you hover mouse over the rulers flag (be they liege or other) it will pop-up how big their realm size is.
    I usually play as a vassal and try to expand my lieges realm to an empire, so knowing this can be extremely helpful when calculating how much more you need to 'obtain' for them! Don't forget to subtract any land them have outside of De Jure borders though (forming Germania and HRE is a pain for this).

    Definitely should have been playing tall and giving your liege vassals from the get go, it would have made him stronger faster. A perfect example is when you conquered Munster. Give your liege the Munster vassal, then give your liege the Munster duchy title which the liege gives to the Munster vassal so that you not only give your liege a vassal but one who likes him.
    Also that’s why your liege kept trying to give you vassals, you held the dejure duchies which you should have given him. Also giving a vassal a dukedom while a Duke does not masked them independent of your liege just you, like a realm splitting upon inheritance.

      Easiest way is to disinherit your other children before you die, so it forces all your land to go to 1 person
      Could also add succession laws to any Dutchy titles and vote for your primary heir in each election to keep your land together.
      But if they do declare war just marry quickly for a powerful ally and siege the war leaders capital, this often gets you +30 war score so you can white peace!
