I don't thin there is a CK empire thread so I post this here:

My game as Count of Halland has gone far!

These guys I'm really scared of!

I don't think I've seen the Golden Horde be this big before :eek:
 
A few pages back one showed them in Paris.
Wow you have 11000 times the prestige I have in my game but the same piety.

Does that make me a good or bad christian? :eek: xD
 
Just found out my son and daughter are dirty blighters.

The shame.

Philippe Capet of France was having a bit of bother.

Naturally I decided it would be best (as the Duke of Gelre) to swear fealty to the most powerful King in the region. Hmmm, Burgundy I think. Yes, probably Burgundy.

Wow, I never saw the Kingdom of Burgundy actually becoming something by its own! I did it once myself, when I played the Duke of Bourgogne, but I never saw it done by the AI. Beautiful. It looks like the Carolingian Empire!

By the way, the brother-sister incest is quite common, at least I've seen it many times. It gave me a chance to introduce a very, very nasty soap-opera-esque plot turn in my never finished AAR when I played Barcelona, later Aragon.

Seljuks saw the light and gave up their heathen ways.

It's always cool when something like that happens. In one of my games (no screens, sorry) the Swedish crown passed to one the chiefs who were still pagan. Tribe of Sweden sure looked cool.

A bit sad I didn't continue that game, it would've been cool to see strong paganism.
 
Similarly, in my current game the Serenissima Repubblica, which had blown up to some huge crazy thing with control of the south Slavic regions, Sicily, a fair chunk of Spain, and Lesser Poland, somehow got a Muslim Doge. He then packed the courts with more Muslims. After about ~70 years of resulting holy war with only some minor border changes, it flipped backed to Christianity. And then this happened.

I guess the locals got sick of the excesses of republicanism. For a while it remained an independent county, but, finding itself wanting of its former colonies, agreed to vassalage with the Republic, the count maintaining sovereignty over the city itself.

edit: Also in the same game, the Archbishopric of Denmark (not sure how that happened) was this close to getting a Muslim bishop. Sadly, they settled for a line of Arab Catholics. :(

Oldest courtier I've ever seen ... rather mundane compared to most of the other pics in here :<

And yes, that is 260,000 gold ... I stopped being able to find things to spend money on mid-game and controlled most of the very rich Mediterranean for probably half the game. 1000 gold per month racks up after a while. @__@
 
Behold! The traitor to beat all traitors!

I think he wants ot make a super family in my court and inherit the byzantine empire :eek:

Looks like that bishop is more of an imam than anything...
 
I guess this is what happens when you don't marry your first-born son right away.







Soon as that girl hit 16 I sent her away to marry a Dutch count.

...8 years latter...



Yes, of course, the trouble is she's married. :D

I made my bastard son diocese bishop and he decides the court is "too dangerous" so he defects to Spanish muslims instead...

Well, makes sense actually, as he had an affair with my wife that ended just recently. (The "young bachelor" event that made my 37-year-old wife friends with my 16-year-old bastard.)
 
The former King of Leon is now a Muslim sheik. He even has a veiled Muslim wife...

I think what happened was that as King of Leon he conquered Toledo and became Count of Toledo. Next thing I noticed was that his brother Castile declared war on him and stripped him of his Leon possessions. What happened after that I'm not quite sure.
