Votes: 3 for Finland (the province), 0 for the rest

Yes, you heard right! FINLAND! Land of the Pagans, often the last stop of Baltic crusaders!

But not this time.

I hear you ask this of me; "Doktor! How can you play as Pagan finns? Is not possible!"

To this I say, "What, did you learn english from some sort of heavy ordinance expert?"

But I also say this! "Of course it's not! I will be a CHRISTIAN Finn!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

To do this task, I shall need your help!

Where shall the Lankila dynasty establish itself? The coastal city of Finland? The northern wastes of the Sames? Or a province in between, perhaps on Karelia!

It is up to you, my dear reader! Tell me where to start, and I shall end this in glory, blood, and victory!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay that was copy-paste of the Paradox Forums AAR I'm planning on starting! The Finns shall Rise - A Finnish Counts Tale

And of course, those forums are slightly maybe slow!

SO

If I want to get anywhere in this doomed and suicidal (for the Lankilan Dynasty, of course) venture, I shall need you people! Either post here, or post there (but preferably only one for the votes, I'd love if you posted for kicks and giggles though), but I want your input!


Onward, my friends! To Death! To Glory! To Blood and Victory and the Finnish way!



P.S. I shall be updating this thread along side the Paradox thread, so you don't need to go out of your way. Of course, that's assuming ANYONE wants to watch this!

[Sheb]

Which game are you playing?

Anyway, I vote for a coastal cuty, we can expand in the pagan hinterland later on, showing those peasants who's the boss.

[The Doctor]

Crusader Kings, CK.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize the initials would be trouble. I shall change that.

[The Doctor]

First update incoming!

[The Doctor]

Meet the Family!

Hello! Welcome to this AAR. My name is Voitto... Voitto... uh... How do you pronounce this? Hippollama? Hoopaluup?

Well this is me! Nice portrait, eh? First thing I did when I got here.

Anyway, this is the realm I inherited a few years ago... Dinky, smelly, full of pagans.

Ahhhh, home... I supposed, maybe, I should show you my advisors...



Tuovi the Useless. If she were male, I'd use her as my marshall. But we all know women can't hold a sword, right? That's why we don't do it? ... Right?



Lempi the Chancellor. She helps out around the realm, making sure that people don't get pissed at us. Well, she would, if there were anyone else but pagans in this freezing tundra...



Mahla the Spy mistress. She stabs people, and keeps me from being stabbed...

I hope.




And this, of course, is my lovely Russian wife. She's a beaut, right? Except for those eyebrows... That jaw.

The nose.

Well, everything.

... Hairs nice, though.

Look how much she got me, too!



 All 4 gold pieces! That's alot, about a month of income I think.

Now all there is left to do is to manage my realm, make money, and get in bed with the pope...



-sputter- What the hell?! I just got here like a month ago! I didn't authorize anything like this!


YOU WANT 100 GOLD? GO TO HELL.

... Ah shit.

[Sheb]

Wow, the game hasn't started yet, and you already look like the product of hundreds of years of consanguinity.

Also, is it normal for your entire staff to be female?

[The Doctor]

Well it's a random group, so there's a 12.5 percent chance of getting 3 females...

[Zai]

I find this entertaining so far. I'll be watching the thread.

[Deadmeat1471]

'Look how much she got me, too! '

I'd send her back.

[Yaddy1]

Four!? That's astonishingly low...

[Deus ex Machina]

The question is: What the hell will the children look like?!

Is it possible to play as actual pagans in Crusader Kings?

[The Doctor]

Yes and no. Yes it's possible, but only with either in-game shenanigans (become a vassal of a pagan) or an outside tool. And when you are a pagan, you can't claim titles of Pagans and you can't declare war on Pagans without a claim, though you can declare war on Christians willy-nilly.

The children will look like their father, probably. Or partly their mother if they turn out Russian.

[The Doctor]

D-D-D-DOUBLE POST:

I haven't gotten around to playing much yet, because I am lazy as fuck I MEAN because ... no, that's why.

I'll probably have a 10-20 year update tomorrow, but no promises. HOWEVER, I WILL promise that if I don't have it up tomorrow, then Wednesday at the latest.

Also I can't spell tommorrow.

One m, two rs. :p
