"WOW" what? His stats? His kingdom doesn't look impressive at all, so I'm wondering what I should look at.

His stewardship. Highest in the entire world at the moment. I found it impressive given that my relatives have a habit of getting murdered if I leave them alone for too long.

It's not so surprising that Gujarat is surviving - that Rajastan is actually a Tengri empire that got broken off when I divided my empire into three (it was getting too big to manage). Bihar, visible, is also Tengri. So they're all same-dynasty allies, and usually too tied up fighting religious revolts and Hindu incursions to be expanding.

I was responding to (paraphrasing) "If I build something, it would push over 51%?". Therefore, I don't see how this relates to de jure title requirements.

I meant the whole "kinsman inheriting HO so I can have same culture for vassalization." thing. Forget de jure, forget everything else, that alone automatically stops all other stuff dead.

Who needs culture?

I want to know if you can convert other counties to No Culture. It would be cool to make the world culture-free. Kind of scary in a Orwellian sense... or an army of zombies, but cool.

At the very least you should give they guy someone to marry to see if noculture passes on to the next generation. You should also have him educate some kids to see if they learn to abandon culture.
 
Sorry for double-post, but this is actually on topic:

1: A rehash of an old story -

2: Strange... something about this Teuton knight seems a little... off -

3: I'm proud to say he is one of the greatest popes of all times, drinking problems and Angelic posession aside -

Note: All 7 virtues, Mystic and Scholar at the same time, all four non-virtue/sin positive traits(ambitious, gregarious, just and zealous) and just so no one says he got it with his good looks - he's Ugly to boot. Sometimes RNGeesus just loves folks.

One of my dukes promptly thinks it's the greatest of ideas to faction for his claim on my primary title -

4: - Barely a year after his unsuccessful adventure claim on Scotland against my brother -

5: Not really strange, but this is even more impressive than the historical d'Ivrea story -

Sorry for the double post, but some things came up.

I'm starting to think playing as a pious family gets you some divine perks. Twice now I've had junk heirs...taken care of.

Here we see the first King of England (And his brother, da Pope).

And we see his ill begotten heir, dying of Tuberculosis before sullying his father's newfound throne. He was my great-great Grandfather.

Now we skip to my current ruler, who has "sadly" lost two boys at this point. I say that in quotes because look at my son.

Small Pox did a wondrous thing for the crown of England, and it's making me believe my piety might be helping get rid of these...embarrassments. Who educated him, you may ask?

My "lovely" wife (Pre-selected by dear ol' Grandpa for reasons I can no longer fathom), and yes she is training my other son in the theory that she couldn't possibly junk two children. Surprise...she did.

Thankfully, I shipped him off to the Holy Orders before he could wreck the place. I'm having my grandson trained by a loyal Duke. I don't care that he might turn Anglo-Saxon, I just need some competent rulers for the future. I'm getting tired of Norway and Sweden sending raiding parties all the time. Time for England to deal with the Pagan menace (While gobbling up some pieces of territory from Alba when truces expire).


Surfing the map, I came upon the most polite nation in the world.

Checking the state of the world's religions, I discovered one Russian County that defies its neighbors.

Orthodox, Norse, and Sumesuko on all sides, but nah. Slavic is definitely the way to be!


Finally, I think we're coming to an end of our tale of the Shia Caliphate of Youkhann.

Best part is, the current Caliph is sympathetic to Christians.

My ironman attempt at making the most ridiculous character possible. I really should've tried making him a dwarf.

How did you do that on Ironman?

Also funny he's named Tomato, as tomatoes originate in South America.
 
So let me get this straight, he's an ethnically Turkish, Aztec cultured, Zoroastrian Roman Emperor from a Norman dynasty. If it's as you say, and this was done on Ironman, then you have my congrats.

Also, Heraclius is turning over in his grave.
 
Christianity B Screwed. Orthodox Poland for the win, by the way.

Maybe next time. I was originally just going for the 1066-1453 achievement.

True, but I thought it was funny anyway.

Pushed a weak-claim of Byzantium, formed Roman Empire, moved capital to a Zoroastrian county and converted, then formed Persian Empire, then moved capital to Aztec cultured Ireland and changed to it (Not all done with one character).

By my accounts, you could definitely have created a weirder character. He could have had any of the following traits:
Viking, Varangian, Genius/Quick, Attractive, Lunatic, Crusader, Son of a concubine, Homosexual, Twin, Blinded, any of the tolerance traits, any amount of the bad genetic traits, and I believe one of the indian casts as well.
 
He's got 25% decadence, to boot.

Adventurer got lost on his way to England, appearently.


And I decided to just turn the whole of Iceland over to the Teutonic Order, let them deal with it (It really is in the backwoods beyond of nowhere). Come back a few years later to discover this had happened.
