My giant brother was having an incestuous afair with my dwarf sister, and she was immediately killed by her old husband that i just married off too 1 min ago... that made me laugh lol
Holy wars are great, this is the 2nd time i put a family member in charge of the whole Kingdom by having the most achievements in it.
It's easy, i just switch the place for something near me so im the first to arrive then i start conquer stuff far away from the enemy to rack up points.
By the time the rest of the guys arrive i already have a massive adavantage in points.
Also this is my 3rd time in a 5 kids pregnancy run that i got the "suspicious event" but never got it to succeed in finding out more since the % are so low, anyone have got it? I'm kinda curious if you can get a bastard child without knowing lol
I let my titles get broken up and then either roll with it or go on a fuckery spree to reclaim them. It's a setback, like losing a war, but dealing with setbacks is part of the game.
Breaking up the Kingdom titles really helped out a lot for me, now my brothers could only get duchies which is easier to revoke when i want later.
I'm not exactly advanced but this is what I'd guess
a) murder or deliberate suicide charges into enemy territory
b) try and work around it by spending resources on upgrading your primary holding (this is my current method)
c) restructure the law (this takes forever)
I became a bit more okay with it once I realised everybody else suffers from it too, it's the easiest way to see that e.g. whoever is ruling England now has dropped from 2k to 800 troops and it's time to go real estate speculating, or launch a war of liberation or whatever.
Some of those are children so can't send them into battle. I for sure do the b option, only upgrade my counties and if i upgrade other is for gold/tax structures only.
They ain't gonna caught me slipping lol half of my total army comes from my place.
