Not going into battle is the only sure way. If he goes I,to battle being brave increases his chances of dying. Craven makes it less likely.

As for having someone die that way? Send them with a small force against a large one...and keep losing over and over and hope for the best

Being a lunatic and possessed increase the chances of you being killed/captured during a battle, too. I'd imagine personal fighting skill has something to do with it.

On another note, are there any good ways of getting the Lunatic or Possessed traits? I've only managed to get it once, through the Observatory event chain, and I want those sweet, crazy events. The opinion penalty isn't even that bad.

Is it just me, or does the occultism branch of the observatory chain tends to cause early deaths?

Yeah. The lunatic event ID is 6020 for example. http://crusaderkings-two.wikia.com/wiki/Cheats

Just conquer France. Problem solved.

No claims yet. I thought I was going to get to set my son up in Scotland, but the idiot died fighting the Duke of Kent.

That chain involves turning you into European equivalent of Abdul Alhazred, so figures.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Yeah, Messalians and Zionists (Zun?) are the incest guys.

Of all the heresies, you chose the one that promotes being poor?

C'mon, join Messalianism! It's far cooler. Women as priests and sister-wives!
But Fraticelli:
  • Removes the decadence of the Catholic church
  • Retains the powers of the Catholic church

Meaning you can still get that tax money if you control the pope and can still call crusades. You basically become Islam without decadence revolts (and concubines)

I'll probably play as a Jewish guy as I never played as them before and it be a bit different. With HIP.

Last time I played, I was playing the Game of Thrones mod. But it was kind of easy. I can see why HIP nerfed assassination jobs...because...I pretty much single handedly took the iron throne through assassinations lol. And a good placed marriage. In a really short time period too. It was fun, but too easy lol. Had a huge empire within 10 years of the game. Then after that, pretty much assassins any time a nation got too strong and then civil war+collapse of nation :P I was swimming in money. Yeah I can not do assassinations...but...if a gameplay feature is there, I'm gonna use it. Cause its there. If the game had built-in godmode (I only play ironman mode, so no cheats for me)...I'd use it cause it be built into the game/mod lol. In any case...maybe the vanilla game assassinations are totally OP too (I heard they were). I dunno cause I pretty much went right to HIP (much more fun to me). But yeah...at first I thought nerfed asssassinations were lame, but now I don't and like the challenge of setting them up and trying to get them to succeed and often failing them lol.

In any case...Jewish guy it will be :D Usually I play Byzantines or...Byzantines...or...Byzantines...so time to change it up lol. I'll probably set up a merchant republic too.
