  • Does the old copypasta work here?

    I just downvoted your comment.

    FAQ

    What does this mean?

    The amount of points on your comment has decreased by one.

    Why did you do this?

    There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral votes.

    These include, but are not limited to:

    • ⁠Rudeness towards other Lemmerinos,

    • A joke I personally disagreed with,

    • ⁠Spreading incorrect information,

    • Positively mention a website I dislike,

    • ⁠Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.

    Am I banned from the The Instance?

    No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.

    I don’t believe my comment deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?

    Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.

    How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

    Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on this Lemmy instance. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Lemmy is privilege, not a right.









  • Love the game, been playing Ck2 and 3 for about a decade now.

    A big part is making sure your lands are not split up too much each generation. Usually this means conquering or revoking from a vassal a new duchy per son, so the core remains intact on sucession. Like real life, Tyranny is just a number if you have the army to back it up.

    Another big part is military strength. Betroth your newborns to people with big armies. Keep in mind the product of said unions will inherit claims to your land. Also, Knights and Men at Arms are wayyyy stronger than levies. If you’re playing Norse, they cost prestige, not gold, so you can maintain as many as your monthly prestige income allows, and battle, feast, and raid to boost your prestige over time to afford more.

    Raiding is a HUGE boon for the Norse. Best places are counties in Ireland early, and then Brittany, Spain, and Cornwall as you become more powerful. Just be sure you scout the place out and make sure the ruler doesn’t have better troops than you, or you’ll go home with nothing!


  • Where are you posted? In my current run, I started as the count of Gotland, and then invaded Frisia. A few generations later, and all of the British Isles are viking, as is Scandinavia, Germany and France.

    Last I played, my dynasty had 10 Kingdoms under its belt, ruled by various cousins and uncles of the main branch.
