Drools, loved the original. It looks like they improved quite a bit.

I tallied up the numbers. Facing around 10.5k~ Anglosaxons with around 2k scots. I intend to holy war a bunch of England.

10k~ plus a few merc companies, handled strategically, can handle that right? :P

Had a decent thing going, working on getting my husband (a prince of England.) to inherit from the king and removing the vassal I mentioned before, then I pretty much lost when me and two thirds of the HRE tried to gain independence, things were going well until the largest army of the rebels (11000 or so strong.) ended up fighting the king's 14000 or so soldiers, if I noticed sooner I would've been able to get my 6000 there in support and we would've pretty much won the war since that 14000 was the king's main army.

Man this game is hard and fun.

Looks kinda similar to my Scaninavian Empire, except I'm going through the Pagans to the East.

Made a poor mistake though, and will need to recharge my armies... I hate Pagans (that aren't Germanic)

I do have Dunbar though, as a sort of base for my raids on Britain (usually when I forget to set my armies to raid)

Does anyone find the boat management in this game extremely tedious?

Yes. In the exact same way that I find it tedious to raise an army when I have a large empire. Having to gather everyone together is a pain in the butt, and could very easily be fixed with checkpoints or something similar. Boats is the same, having to gather them all together to the points that you need is really quite annoying and could also be fixed trivially easily.

After a while, I seem to have an enormous amount of boats. I don't even both to micro them all usually.

How many troops can 1 boat hold anyway?
I constantly end up having to move the things into and out of position to even know if I can have more than 1 landing party.

Hm, have you considered murder?  It's either that or letting it go.

Yeah, with any nation with a coastline you very quickly get way more boats then you need to carry your troops. That doesn't mean it isn't still annoying to have to gather them manually every time. It isn't the largest problem in the world, but it is still an annoyance.

Each boat can hold 100 troops.

Thank you. Not being able to even guess how many boats I'd need kind of made me avoid them.

How is it tedious?

-Go to the military screen, raise all your vassal's boats.
-Zoom out.
-Use alt to select all the boat in one big rectangle
-Send them all to where you need them.
