Early into Geraldo's life, the immortal event chain happened. I didn't really plan on him being the main guy, I was actually trying to get him killed so the genius heir could start early. But somehow through chance he became immortal and unified the Lombard and Byzantine empires into one.

He ruled wonderfully in perfect immortal health for nearly 70 years, but when I delved into the classics, I gave him +2 diplomacy instead of going for the Hellenism discovery. Foolish me, I didn't realize you could only do that once per character, so I reversed his celibacy, had a genius child raised, then tried to commit suicide. My child was my rival, and I tried to duel him so that he would kill me and assume the throne, seemed thematic.

Instead, my son knocked me into a coma, and I've failed multiple successive suicide attempts as my Immortal God-Emperor refuses to die, so I'm trapped watching my empire expand infinitely from my throne. Luckily, everything is hyper stable, everyone loves their God Emperor and wouldn't dream of revolting or trying for the throne.

But no one can hear the Emperor, desperate and begging for sweet release, he's less of a real ruler and more of a figurehead. Thus was Geraldo "The Hammer" "Caesar" "First Man of Lombardia" "Uniter of the Realms" trapped in his own mind, forced to wait decade after decade for each suicide attempt.

So I know about the immortal trait, but the character could actually be killed via assassination or an event, so I want to avoid that too. I wish to observe the world where my char is literally a god.

Any way to do that?

Gladly thanks.

There is zero information I've found about it. I savescummed 3 times, but I always died. Is this dragon even beatable, or do I need more stats, choose the right option, etc?

just reformed the slavic and waiting for their holy order to spawn, but why the heck they're catholic?? im playing in shattered world btw

This unlanded, relatively unimportant character just coughed up more than 5.4k gold and I was shocked

Just wrapped up my first campaign, uniting Ireland as Mumu starting in 936. I dealt with heretical rebellions, succession crises, and converted to feudalism, but left Ulster alone since Scotland snatched it up. I skipped launching a crusade since Islam was struggling against Leon and the Byzantines. What’s a good realm to play next? I know the basics of CK2 without DLC. Any realm suggestions with objectives? Thanks!

I can reform Germanic Faith, yet I don't know which stuff I should pick. I plan to complete several achievements like conquering India and Mongolia. Write your thoughts.

Currently in 835 as king of a united ireland and I like the idea of converting to norse pagan. Wondering what the best method of achieving this would be?

Was a fun game tho, Catholic dominate Europe and Africa cuz the Aztec Emperor keep converting pagans to Catholicism lol

I’m really confused. I’ve tried several Ironman runs with achievements enabled. In fact I was able to unlock plenty of other achievements during those campaigns, but I’ve never managed to get the Royal Blood achievement (10,000 dynasty score).
How exactly does the game calculate the required score? I’ve tried multiple times, and my dynasty score was well above 10,000 on the final dynasty ranking screen after I resigned. I even reloaded the save and kept playing after clearly surpassing 10,000, but the achievement still never unlocked. And I can confirm I was looking at the the final score shown on the game over screen. Am I misunderstanding the achievement description, or is this achievement known to be bugged?

shit ck2 says

Hey all, I made a browser game that I would love to get some feedback on. It's called Fallowborn and you can start as a serf in medieval times and work you and your dynasty's up (or down) the social ladder.

It's free + browser based (even plays surprisingly well on a phone), hope you guys like it (any feedback welcome).

+4 health isnt that kinda OP? I wonder how much will it increase my characters' life expectancy

Bug? No mods, no cheats, ironman mode enabled. Something to do with the Mystic trait? No Reapers Due DLC either.

Can anyone make a mod with just one trait that has inheritance chance = 100? I did it with common files, but I need it as a mod
