Maybe when I feel like playing again.

I dont think I've played multiplayer since the last patch but with aoe Hd coming I doubt I'd play long.

So I like many others just picked this game up.   Being new to the franchise it quite literally throws you in to it with almost no help at all, and so far i found all the "hint" pages useless.

After a day or so of dicking around im starting to get the hang of the basic gameplay, what are some tips from you veteran players for those of us who picked it up on the steam summer sale?
Kersch did an informative playthrough of CKII on the Something Awful forums a while back. The playthrough is now in the LP Archive.

I'm pretty new to this game, and I'm trying to learn it as I go along. Could someone explain this to me please...

(click to show/hide)

I spend all my time scheming, and assassinating characters, so that my heir gains the land, or at least has claims on the land. Once gained, the second I unpause the timer, the land goes to someone else, all with a new line on heirs. Is it because my heir hasn't come of age yet? It's the only reason I can think of...

I'm also noticing that underage characters can only own one piece of land, is this correct? Any more than that, and it seems to go to a random vassal...

That's probably to do with your succession laws. I haven't played a muslim dynasty since that dlc came out. In Christian succession that doesn't happen so I assume it's due to Islamic succession laws.

I think that's more to do with their management skills. Unless you give underage chars a duke title, as a count their maximum demesne is probably always going to be 1.
Incidentally, I wouldn't reccomend playing in the area you're at right now if it's your first time ever. Let's just say there's a high chance you're going to get buttraped around 1250 or so.

Alright, thanks for the info guys. It's a very interesting game, and I'm really enjoying it. 1250 is a while off yet, I imagen some huge horde will sweep the area or something? This is my game so far, the only land I've lost due to succession is the small Seljuk province in the west...

Things seem to be going well, and I'm slowly getting to grips with it. Someone was killing off my court, I was losing at least 3 people a month, so I went on the counter and started my own schemes to be rid of some people. It's fucking awesome, I should have played this before... :P

I am forming The Great Dwarf Empire right now. Custom dynasty, only male dwarfs inherit, every non-dwarf, who is first in line, gets killed :) Already changed all my laws as i wanted - had to spend lots of gold, to keep a positive rating among my vassals, but now it is a smooth sailing!
 
Pumping Intrigue, so i can accuse troublesome vassals in treachery. Converted to Nesterian Heresy, so i can wage Holy War on my orthodox neighbors, and can get a divorce easily, when a wife turns 30. Throwing every vassal, who is not willing to convert, into dungeon. If they stay true to their faith - i cut their eyes out. Fun times! Had a devastating Holy War, where most slavic orthodox states got involved - won it, and took up to a dozen prisoners. Now every second ruler around me is blind. That will teach them whos religion is better! Where is your god now, you blind fucks?!
 
It is actually no more than 1/3 chance to get a dwarf child, even if both parents are dwarfs... And there are very few dwarfs out there, who have any good inheritable traits to compensate. So i have to breed my relatives a lot - once i had to merry my niece, she was only 17, and didn't like my 60 year old king too much ( he was a strong homosexual dwarf, greedy, cruel, paranoid impaler ), but like with most women, few estates, a gold purse and a honorary title - melted her heart. Unfortunately, the king died few years later, so I recycled his wife, and married her to the new king :) She was a hardy little woman, who gave birth to many beautiful children!
 
Yeah, and btw, an expansion is out! Get it while it's hot!
