Crusader Kings II: General Discussion Thread

[Heckenshutze]

Made this thread because all the other CK2 post are mostly for making multiplayer games or servers, also, I'm too lazy to surf around the entire forum looking for an older thread about this and perform wicked necromancy, so here it is. Discuss anything you want about the game.

Currently I'm having lots of fun playing as my great spanish asturian ancestors and trying to re-build the Kingdom of Asturias, I picked the start year 1066 but now I'm currently thinking in making a new game in the 900 (or in the dark ages) only issue I have is I don't want to change the history that much that I lose some history accuracy in terms of characters and kingdoms/events.

What's your favorite start year? I chose 1066 solely because the crusades began not too far from there. And also wanted to start without a kingdom or vassals, I wanted to achieve everything by my own

1066

The easiest things if you want to play a historically accurate character are any of the Spanish Kingdoms, or William of Normandy.

If you want to start from scratch pick an Irish count, and try to reunite the Kingdom of Ireland.

once the pope’s spymaster really really hated the pope so i killed the pope. turns out the spy master was just a dick and was on board with me killing any pope, so i killed the pope a few hundred times until his spymaster passed away.
