You're still a Duke right?

If a vassal manages to become equal in status to their lord through conquest, inheritance or is awarded the rank by a king/emperor, then he is independent of you. A duke can't by the vassal of another duke.

Nope, I'm King of Denmark... though I suppose it might have happened before that, and I didn't notice... though, is a "petty King" the same as a duke?

Yes, a petty king is a duke.

Could have passed outside your realm through inheritance.

A vassal can rise the rank of petty king and no longer be the vassal of another petty king without a war.  It just sort of happens.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You can't create or (I think) usurp a title of the same sank as the highest title of your liege. There may be other ways of doing it though.

I accidentally did when I was an Earl in Wessex.  I had conquered Cornwall and "Boom", no longer a vassal.

So I learned a few things in my first two playthroughs...

This time, I'm doing Haesteinn of Nantes in Ironman mode.

It's a little too much work to post updates in forum posts, but if any of you care I'm doing a tumblr log here: https://www.tumblr.com/customize/haesteining?redirect_to=/blog/haesteining

Jake - here's a better link. http://haesteining.tumblr.com/

The one you gave requires someone to have a tumblr account/log-in to view.

Also your tumblr is doing something odd. It is stretching the images sizes - so that when you click on an image, it shows up as correctly sized smaller image but the default is something that has been stretched and more pixely.

Thanks!

I've never used tumblr before... it shows, I guess  :blush:

Not sure what to do about the stretchy image.

So tumblr... it's really easy to post stuff to it, which is great. It means there is actually a reasonable chance I'll keep it up, unlike an AAR on a message board for example.

I guess the downside is that if you start reading it or follow it intermittently you always get the most recent post so the continuity is usually backwards... which is less than ideal.

Of course, that assumes anyone reads it which is probably unlikely  :lol:

According to this, if posts are tagged then one can just add that tag and "chrono" to end of link to see in forwards order?

That totally works!
