Paradox games but definitely NOT GAMES OF THRONE

[The Lusophone]

Hmm. Only thing I can suggest (or find on the official forums) is to verify your game cache or play in windowed mode.

[METALMAN]

Is this in the base game or a mod?

Maybe it's the Very Slow Troop Movement mod.

[apsham]

Maybe he's playing Last Guardian by mistake?

Jon Snow knows all there is to know about the crying game:

Man....

I don't think there's a word in any language to describe what this has done to the ego of Khal Drogo.

1 January 867 - Starts new game.

No heir.

Game Over.

Started a Muslim game in Granada. Gained independence. Took over most of Spain and Portugal. Kicked the Catholics out. Formed Hispania. Converted the whole empire to Sunni. Italy went Iconoclast. Invaded. Kicked the Pope out of Rome.

The Papacy is now based in Wales.

Just like real life.

The Papacy eyes unsettled Gareth Bale for top job in a shock move!

[apsham]

Holy crap, I have never seen the Papacy moved in a game. I tried so hard once but I could never go to ware with Rome.

See, I'm pissed at my game because for some reason, whenever I start up a normal version of CK2, I get some kind of popup message about my character, except it's blank, and there's no button to acknowledge the message, and thus, I can't play. 

Doesn't happen with Game of Thrones, though. 

 

Also, I'm slightly upset that William Wallace isn't in the game  .

Have you tried updating your version? I had that happen on the GoT mod recently after I added some submod to try, and it fixed once I updated the version of the GoT mod I was using. Might work if you update the main game.

[Mick]

I'll give it a shot, I probably should have done that sooner, but I've been mainly intrested in GoT that it didn't bother me that much. I mean....Dragons or following the orders of the Pope? Which would you pick?  

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Being the Pope and having dragons follow my orders, obviously.

[MalaCloudy Black]

I actually rather prefer the vanilla game but it seems metalman, Gazz and I may be minorities in that respect. The GoT mod is cute for the first 15 or 20 minutes, then it's just "oh hey look this thing happened differently than in the show/book". I rather like taking on the task of trying to rise in rank as a lowly Duke or some such in Germany circa the 900s, or trying to unite all the Viking clans. It's much more fun I think.

The AI can be retarded sometimes....

Win war for independence....become a vassal of the lord you just defeated in a war. Rinse, repeat....

 

 

[Mick]

Speaking of retarded AI....Dany's husband is in on a plot for me to kidnap her  

 

Who the hell did she marry, Jerry Lundegaard? 

[Quom]

You can kidnap people in the GoT mod? In the normal one you can only kill or take titles.

[Mick]

Normal CK is going to be a cakewalk after playing Game of Thrones. I was amazed at the sizes of the armies (being used to GoT numbers), and the fact that becoming a heretic lets me declare war on whoever. 

For shits and giggles, I'm going to take a GoT character, make them as close as I can in ruler designer, give them the right stats/traits, and have at it. So far I'm considering Tywin, Baelish, or Aegon I. 

[Gazz]

Becoming heretic also means that they can all declare war on you. It'll be a Holy War and you're going to get trounced by every Catholic ruler in Europe.

Catholicism is boned in my save. Since I control Santiago and Rome, moral authority is about 30%. I control Hispania and Italy. Aquitaine is Iconoclast (Orthodox heresy) somehow. Tengri, Norse and Slavic are all reformed so the Catholic kingdoms (West Francia, Middle Francia, Germany, Bavaria and Frisia) are all getting Holy war smashed from all directions.

The King of England is German too, you can imagine how popular that is.
