Did you Start as an Emperor? :huh:
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

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.

Sons of Abraham has lots of expanded religious elements for Catholics as well. It's quite good. Plus your son can be demon spawn!
That's nice, but I like playing as a Norse pagan so much I don't see myself playing a Catholic any time in the near future. :)

And in the game?

I have no idea how Tim or anyone conquers that much territory so fast (100 years!), even if he got a lucky claim on Kingdom of Italy. The holy wars against the Abbasids are tough because the Tulunids are usually supporting them, and the Vassal levy penalty just adds up.

I also started Old Gods and got this far by 1130

:hmm:

I'm at 1160 and my Zoroastrian game now has me painting most of Europe (I've started spinning off kingdoms when they are strong enough - i.e. new administration penalty goes away)
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

You guys are clearly much better at this game than I am.  I bow before your mad skills.

Here's my kingdom so far.  I made my own dynasty and started with Alfred the Great's setup (two province count).  The original count Raz was based me (I.E. useless).  The family has done well.

My King married late.  There is plenty of time to produce an heir.  Previously I had a queen rule for two decades.  I'm now fighting in Norway, I won't stop till every fucking Norse men is beaten.

Lucky inheritance. At the beginning of the game the Emperor's father was unmarried so I wed him to the daughter of the Italian King. They had a daughter who inherited the throne and died of an illness soon after leaving the throne to me. The crown itself passed out of my hand since it was undergavelkind though and not enough voted for minimum crown laws before I died.

Since then the King of Italy has been my most dangerous and useful vassal, but I've managed to keep him from rebelling so far. They made the early game a lot easier then it normally would have been.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.
