Hopefully there's a way to mod out that vassal limit, that seems like it would take out a lot of the fun.

Sounded quite interesting and reasonable to me. A major complaint about the game is that huge realms tend to be too stable.

But anyway, I get the feeling it'll be a tweakable value in defines.lua if implemented.

the vassal limit sound pretty good to me, but I hope it can be modded out just 'cause greater moddibility makes everyone happy.

I'm fine with the vassal limit. Simply because I already got all the achievements that need large empires.

If traits affect the vassal limit, it's a simple matter of giving an invisible trait to make vassal limits so high as to be non-existent.

That's at least one way :v I'm sure there'll be others. If there's one thing Paradox does, it's modability.

Doesn't seem like something that would be difficult to implement modding support for. I wouldn't worry about it.

Seems like Arumba started a tutorial for the game. Really late but maybe it will get more people interested.

So I learned that a moron child with the wrong reagent can get his crown authority raped away from high to none in 4 years.

So I replace the reagent with some creative appointment to spymaster + getting arrested.  Now a lowborn female with zero influence is reagent.  Good.  Except bad, because I got the same exact message say 'my reagent is among our faction's supporters, so lololol you cant stop us!'  The guy grew up, to his credit, with 18 martial.  And 2 stewardship and diplomacy.  And 0 intrigue and 1 learning.


WTF.

*sigh* Looks like my current game is about to come to an end. After many generations creating a large kingdom out of NW Russia, Finland, and down into Prussia and Poland, my family decided to screw things up for me.

Awesome current ruler dies at 60-something after conquering all of Finland from Sweden. No big deal, I've got his heir all set up and ready to go. Switch over to him, only to find that somewhere in the last few years he got the possessed trait. Annoying, but not that big a deal. Except that he only has two daughters and the eldest apparently decided that she should be on the throne since she had him assassinated shortly after I took over.

So now I have a Queen in charge who has many children, none of whom are part of my Dynasty.

Get a matrilineal marriage and imprison/assassinate/kill all your children.

You'll be a tyrant and a kinslayer, of course. But your family will survive.

Or tanistry or even seniority would screw over those non dynasty children.

Problem is, I'm still Norse religion and haven't been able to get far enough over yet to grab the last few sites to reform the religion. I don't have any options to change succession any.

IIRC if you have some landed (county or higher mind you) dynasty members you will switch to playing one of them if your queen dies in this situation, then take back what is yours :D

in the mean time murderize your current husband and kids and try to make some dynasty babies with a new husband, assuming your queen isn't already too old
