Sooo... I've read on RPS that the Game of Thrones mod finally got to 1.0, and basically offered everything the devs meant it to, so I've fired up CK II once again just for the purpose of running the game with it (for the first time).
Now this has probably been mentioned and answered somewhere in the thread, but I ain't got the strength to browse thru hundreds of pages. So I started a new game with GoT, chose the earliest possible scenario and.. it got boring?
I started as one of the lords in the Vale, and as soon as the Targaryen dude conquered and unified the Seven Kingdoms, I've began conquering my neighbors and ended up with a kingdom roughly the size of half of the Vale. Yes, kingdom, as I've gained independence from my Lord Paramount and the Iron Throne (Prince, King, whatever... my liege, one of the lords of the seven kingdoms under the Iron Throne).
Now after this happened, I soon either got gangbanged by all the other kingdoms as soon as the asshole sitting on the Iron Throne decided I've been independent for too long, or acknowledged him as my liege, becoming officially, I guess, the eight kingdom (remember, I basically broke up the Vale into two separate kingdoms). Of course I went with the second option, because survival above all.
Now, approximately 110/120 years passed (since the very beginning) and... nothing ever happens? Every so often someone rises up against the King, but never actually manages to do squat, since he gets crowded by all the other parts of the realm (even if I and another kingdom join him in rebellion). The other continent is apparently playing it's own game, completely separate and the only excitement I get is the occasional pirate raid (which are, honestly, mindnumbingly boring).
My question is, does anything significant happen in the future? On set dates? Because the game played out kinda differently from the canon, so I have no idea if the events that are supposed to happen ever will. And no, I don't want to sit my arse on the Iron Throne - why would I do that, I've got kins(wo)men all through the realm. Anyone?
