And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

            Has anyone played the GoT mod of this? Game looks like a lot of fun, I just have to get used to it.

                Do you know if there is a FAQ or something on how to get started. I haven't played a game like this in quite a while and I am clueless lol. I started as Robb in the aCoK scenario and got attacked but had no idea what I was doing :/

                  OMG!!!
                  Steam is the DEVIL Lol

                  I kid

                  But with their sale they had, yeah I finally scooped this up.

                  Now I'm stuck between a rock and hard place, balancing (in my off time) the Gym, FIFA14, Civ V, EU IV, and now CK II, oh yeah and Tropico 4.

                  MAN I am a sucker for these types of games.

                    Ireland is a lot easier in CK2 than EU4 and a great place to learn the game.

                      Honestly, I'd watch a "let's play" video or two and see how other people set things up, go through various scenarios, etc. It's actually not as complicated as it seems, it's just that it can be overwhelming at first glance.

                      Somewhere back in this thread, I believe some of us posted some of the videos we watched. You could try those or hit up youtube...there are plenty of good ones out there.

                      I wish I didn't see this thread pop back up. I've already sunk tons of time into this (and the GOT mod) and I'm finally on track with some of my Steam backlog. But now I want to jump into this again...lol.

                      EDIT: Here are some previous posts (spoilered for length):

                              Re: Crusader Kings II

                              I had recently picked up the newer DLC for the game, started up for the new early date.

                              Started with a custom High chief of Pruthenia.
                              with my starting Ruler, I expanded very quickly, created a kingdom from my ducal title, Kingdom of Pruthenia. I kept Expanding and actually got the Romuva religion reformed, and just now switch from a Tribal nation to a Feudal nation. My ruler is now 53, but still kicking.

                              His oldest Son already died due to severe stress, He only had a Daughter. 2nd son is also stressed currently. not sure what is up with that. 2nd son is a genius with 30 Diplomacy, so I'm hoping he can recover from that stress. It's been a really fun game so far.



                              Current state of Europe.
                              Middle Francia is huge, the yellowish blob in Spain is Umayyad.
                              I've kind of expanded to the max currently, at least no easy targets left. Saxony is small, but has a large Army and allies. Kryvia is most likely target to go after next. I don't remember they allies status though.
                              I have a fairly large territory now, but my army is kind of small right now.



                              the religion map mode. I recently reformed the Romuva religion. Holding 4 of the 5 holy sites. It doesn't seem to be hard to reform this religion. The 5th one is in Russia. good thing about reforming, I can now holy war the infidels.

                                Re: Crusader Kings II

                                First ruler finally died, at the young age of 81. out live most of his kids and some Grand kids.

                                Granddaughter takes over the throne. a Genius with 29 Diplomacy. I managed to change succession laws to regular Elective over the elective Gavelkind.



                                not much has changed in my borders. I took 2 more counties, one from Poland, the other from one of the Russian nations. I've defended against Poland in 2 wars, and 1 war from Saxony. I think under my new ruler I'm going to try and build up defenses and improve economy. I feel a bit over stretch at the moment. I do have a few people who are not liking my current ruler as they don't like female rulers, but she has a lot of good traits that get positive opinion, so it ends up net gain for most vassals.
