Hello all!I would like to ask for some advice and clarification (Wall of text incoming)This is my first CK2 game where I have at least a little bit of clue what I’m doing. Playing the game on vanilla, no DLCs whatsoever.Started with the earliest possible date as Hungary, It’s right on the eastern border of the catholic world, so there are conqest possibilities in almost all directions.
Or at least I thought so, then I saw the size of the unified HRE and Byzantium (played a lot of EU4 before and this was never the case there). No problem, there’s Poland and some heathen tribes in the east, Croatia to the south.

During a failed conquest to the east, instead of sucking up the loss I sent a decent amount of gold in the HREmperor’s way to let my sister marry his nth son and secure an alliance. It was a steamroll from that point, me taking a corridor between the Baltic and Adriatic Seas east of the HRE. This meant Poland, west part of Croatia, and a lot of tribes near the Baltic. That’s nice and all, but then the HREmperor died and the alliance got annuled. Ok, I was strong enough to stand my own against rebs and most of the remaining tribes if they allied.Somewhere during this time there was a quasi-revolt to change the election law to Elective. As I thought it is still a lot better than Gavelkind, I just gave in. I wanted my holdings to be close to each other instead of having them on the different parts of the Kingdom, I started to use up my “massive” treasury and income (3k+ with +20/m) with building and upgrading castles in my capital duchy counties.
This increased my income to 30-33/m. Built new castles, because I wanted to use the tax and levy modifier for them being in my capital duchy. IGThf:Hello all!

How often do Paradox games go on sale? With the Steam sale on the horizon, I’m wondering if it’s worth waiting for all of the DLC prices to drop. Also, are any of the DLCs in the $100+ Bundle really worth getting for new players?They go on sale frequently. For CKII, you’re guaranteed a sale whenever the next expansion releases and it’ll likely be available at a steep discount during the Summer sale, whenever that may be. KevinC:They go on sale frequently. For CKII, you’re guaranteed a sale whenever the next expansion releases and it’ll likely be available at a steep discount during the Summer sale, whenever that may be.Agreed. Until Paradox stops dropping dozens of DLC for each of their game, I usually pick them up piece meal style at a discount, often a heavy discount.
Some of their actual expansions though add some fun things I’ve purchased closer to the original price never the units, songs, or portraits kind of thing.

Well worth it at that price. The is $10, and there is a which has everything but the base game that the $40 pack has (as far as I can tell).They are Steam keys, FYI, and the price is going to be as good as you will likely see during the Steam sale. It is possible, though unlikely, that the base game may have a bigger flash sale, but the DLC itself pack I don’t recall being as good a bargain before.
All this talk about HOI4 got me in a Paradox mood last night so I fired up CKII for the first time in a year. Started in 1066 in Ireland as the King of Mumu with the goal of uniting Ireland under my banner. Spent a little time learning the little changes since I last played but it all came back pretty easily and within an hour I was on my 3rd ruler in succession and had pulled the whole southern half of the island under my rule. Then I spend the last hour waitingand waitingand waiting for a claim to be fabricated so I could move on the northern half and nothing happened.
I was running the game at full speed for over 30 minutes just staring at my screen with nothing to do. Tried to start a few plots to kill someone, no one was interested, educated a few children, married off some siblings but other than that there was nothing for me to do.
I think this was the reason I got frustrated with this game and eventually forgot about it. I’m no expert so i’m probably missing some other way to start wars or gain territories but it seems to me like everything hinges on your councilors ability to fabricate a claim. If he sucks at that, you just sit around and twirl your thumbs. There’s definitely more you can do if you want to expand.Get claims via marriage. Doesn’t even have to be for yourself. Pressing claims for kinsmen results in the territory staying with you.Invite courtiers with claims to your court, land them, press their claims (they stay your vassal if landed first).Non-expanding things to do:Fooling around with WoL events that focuses provideEugenics breeding programsOf course, still lots of waiting around for everything.
There’s nothing wrong with chilling and watching things play out. CraigM:Hey, just in time!I’d reccomend pack. Gives you everything up to Rajas of India for $40. Well worth it at that price.

Not that I have time to play it. CraigM:Hey, just in time!I’d reccomend pack. Gives you everything up to Rajas of India for $40. Well worth it at that price.
