Makes sense, but then I have a lot of City/Bishophric vassals. Bleh.

Okay, wtf is the deal. Why can't I change my generals when I'm doing a siege? I've noticed a lot of small UI problems like this and it's starting to get really annoying. If somebody attacks my siege, I want the 15+ Martial skill generals, not whatever random crap they throw in.

Because the boots are already on the ground? Would be a bit hard to suddenly just swap someone out. :huh:

Here's an idea : after mustering your army, change the general to the guy you want leading the campaign.
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 only figured it out after looking at what options the various crown authority levels gave and took away...one of which is the ability to appoint army commanders.

Habbaku

That's actually the way I found out how to change generals.  :lol:

Saw that it was part of the Law change, got curious, mustered an army and...hey!

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.

Weird. My vassals, after ages saying no despite awesome relations, suddenly all at once decided to back my authority increase.
Soon my monarch shall have been 10 years on the throne and I'll be able to be rid of this stupid seniority and set to work reclaiming Africa and Portugal from my cousin (who is really the real heir I suppose....or was....but stuff went wrong with them).

In my game (s.a.) the usurper Kaiser's son has offed the current Kaiser (who dethroned his daddy) and taken the crown again. He was quickly bitchslapped by the next Salian Kaiser. :lol:

Though that guy in turn got bumped down by the nw Flemish Kaiser. Meanwhile, the Duchess of Cologne/Verona/Siena etc. has successfully gained her independence. Way to go, mom! If only she was still part of my house and I in line for inheriting her titles. :(
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

One small problem I've noticed....so damn many kings getting called "the cruel", many of which never having done much particularly bad.

In my Duke of Mesopotamia game an Austrian count (of Bohemian ethnicity) inherited a strong Kingdom of Poland and has stayed loyal to the Emperor. The HRE which has been quite stable this game is an absolute beast and is currently fighting the Cumans for Crimea.
