This animal kingdom nonsense sure excites people more than it's healthy. But the DLC as a whole seems by far the best they have done in a long while, and the main selling points are actual improvements on historical aspects, unlike their recent offerings.

And Tim, there's absolutely no achievement in conquering everything in sight with the HRE :P Empires are ridicolusly stable in CK2.

The election mechanics get changed in the new add on, and I think they also changed the Byzantium succession? Might change things up a bit.

And the Crusades get more involved, and there'll be coronations and saints. A lot of things they got inspiration from the major mods to put it mildly, but that's ok.

I'll be returning to playing vanilla CK2 instead of mods with this DLC after years.

I just want a game called Crusader Kings to have functioning Crusades. If they can fix those, I'll play a duck.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I can't handle the pointy wings?

Will it be the Duck of Burgundy?

Continuing my HRE game with the previous patch, I've hit a snag. Eloi the Great was bashed in the head and made incapable. Reigned at least ten years with a regent and had like 3 or 4 heirs murdered out from under me. Just inherited with an Emeperess who was previously Queen of Castile and Syria. Was lucky in that since I paused immediately I had one day without a regent and was able to give out a ton of titles to different folks without objection.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Nubia conquered in a crusade, a claimant put on the throne of Hungary, while vassals conquer Mesopotamia.
