Why, what's it look like? I hardly ever allow non-Valyrian usurpers sit the Iron Throne for more than half a year.
I really need to remember turning off the Aztec Invasion DLC when I play this mod. It really breaks immersion when I find The North or the Iron Isles overrun with pesky Aztecs.
But this new vassal is not a men of the nightwatch. He can marry. Its a normal
baron.
Well, not always. I e.g. much prefer vanilla crown used for e.g. Westerlands over North crown. North Crown is kinda ugly for me. But also I have issues with Iron Crown of Lombardy used for other users of Iron Throne. I mean: I even like Iron Crown of Lombardy very much - it' just that in-game it looks like it had 2 times less resolution than anything else.
Anyway, custom Dorne Crown is OK too.
Meaning Iron Crown of Lombardy, or something very alike. Again: if this was proper resolution, I'd hardly give any complain. But come on: Celtic emperors e.g. have much cooler crowns! - as they actually like they've been done in proper resolution.
I always thought that was supposed to be based on the Reichskrone of the HRE? Looks rather too wide to be the Iron Crown of Lombardy.
My bad! You're right, of course.
Anyway - bad thing is that it looks.. blurry. Like some pixel soup. Really, it wouldn't hurt as much as it does if only portraits wouldn't be so detailed - and the contrast!

I feel that it's out of place for the culture of Westeros; it appears meek in comparison to the other crowns that have designs to appear intimidating. I don't think Westeros has all that royal pomp associated with that type of crown in comparison to the real-world royalty. But this is just my opinion, of course.
Does anyone know how to change the name of a duchy? I'm about to create one and want to change it to something specific to my dynasty. I tried changing it in the landed titles file, but I must be missing something, because coats of arms for titles got messed up and the new title showed up in game as d_new name.
Thanks for your help!

Not really - Northern crown design is e.g. certainly not intimidating. Neither is Dornish, or just any else. But I agree that it feels bad to have this crown in Westeros. Really, I'd be much more happy with King's-tier crown for the Iron Throne...
Never, ever change the landed_titles files without changing all references- flags, decisions, events etc. If you want to change the name of a title, look it up in the localisation and then change that. Or in landed_titles, add something like "german = "ASDF"" which means german characters get a different name for the title. That won't work for this of course, but it's an example.
Also:
This is what king Argillac the Confessor got for burning good smallfolk of Storm's End for R'hollor
Was >40k in the beginning.
Although, I have to say, it was one hell of a awesome siege before I dared to lift it

Which skill governs how well someone will do in a court case?
The only person i've ever seen do any better than poor case in my 100+ hours in this mod was Tyrion. I know he's smart, but c'mon! So, what is the secret to getting a good castellan that can ensure convictions?

That's been annoying me too; not only would it be good to know what stat helps the most, we should get to choose. At least between Castellan, Master of Laws, and yourself.
Really - just use good castellan. Court / intriguer education, high diplomacy, not ugly, bright, and such things - court case is just a modifier, and seeing as only person I've seen doing better than poor defense was Cersei, I think it doesn't matter so much. Really, most trials feel like mock trials already for me.

Thanks for the thorough response. I suppose i'll just have to start filling my council with talented relatives. Random-generated courtiers suck hard in my opinion.
I'm not sure how well it would throw off the balance of the game, but wouldn't it make more sense for courtiers to have more innate talents or skills than they currently do? Nobles, although sometimes highly educated, rarely have to work that hard to advance themselves since they are already on the top echelon anyway(I know Tywin, Littlefinger, etc are exceptions) whereas a courtier most likely is in someone's court because they are either a noble, a relative, or a very skilled commoner.

Depends. E.g. I think that warrior-education should be something common - from what I gather, personally leading armies is somewhat a custom in Westeros. Moreover, I think that other good education make perfect sense for second, third, fourth children - as it's Westeros, where dynasties generally don't have abundance of secondary titles, so if they won't make to the council / as leaders, they'll stay ordinary courtiers for life.
I started as Rohanne Webber of Coldmoat(from Dunk and Egg novella) and by complete accident ended up as Queen on the Iron Throne. I married a Blackfyre, so I could get that sweet hair and eye color in the family, and five years later my husbands claim is pressed by someone and so now my daughter will inherit the throne. Pretty awesome.
