If you start Hellenic you can swear fealty to someone strong with religious and title protection, and have a really chill game where you just conquer all the holy sites with nobody able to touch you. If you wanna do it the hard way just be Norse and get the Apostate perk. Should only cost a few hundred piety It's a huge exploit with the new cultures

@@Pedrojerico I was doing it the way of starting out with Hellenism through the character creator. The real difficulties I ran into was the time that it took to convert people, and all the Catholics hating you. I think Derek Shelton has the right idea, just slowly conquer all the holy sites so you can reform the faith. Or as both Derek and Justin suggested, be Norse and just sacrifice enough people to reinstate it outright.

@Pedrojerico

@@iJaceify That's how I did it too, started norse. but it still takes decades to convert each county to hellenism, due to the organized > unreformed conversion debuff and Hellenism being pluralist on top of that, so I reformed the religion and stayed as a vassal of the Byzantine empire until I though I was strong enough to fend off the crusades. You can also try to dismantle the papacy before reforming or becoming independent.

Thats a typical beginner trap if you start as a vassal in HRE. They run elections on who's gonna be the next emperor and quite often they cast their votes to the weakest vassal. Once you gain the throne and being piss poor, other vassals will jump you and... gg. Ofcource, you can turn it around but, for a new player its just... fast game over!

Mali is another really nice country to play for this kind of tall gameplay. They have the Mali gold mines, which are a set of 3 gold mines between two duchies. If you start there you won't need to worry about reducing building costs because you won't have enough ways to get rid of your gold. Each gold mine at level 1 gives 10 gold per month. One of the gold mines is in floodplains and is your starting capital. Main issue will be getting feudal there I expect. And their culture doesn't have the agriculture trait, but you can reform for that.

Really fun to watch episode! :D I love the little meme edits you sneak into the video! As for culture traditions: You would have been able to break the game even harder if you replaced the City Keepers with the respective castle or temple based equivalent tradition, depending on your building preference I think. And "Communal Lands" is also a really damn strong tradition you could have added later, it boosts development by 30% I think with the only downside being longer construction times (but those are not really important anyway in my opinion) and lower control growth (which is also insignificant for a Tall playstyle). Looking forward to what you will do next. :) I am hoping for a new "save your disaster game" but I understand there might not be enough material available for you.

Hey great video man. Don’t get too burned out though. Love the content hopefully I’ll see more during this dlc

I’ve got a good strategy I’ve tested out. Not sure if anyone else has done this yet! It goes like this: 1. Start as Viking 2. Raid for fat stacks 3. Do a Viking invasion of a kingdom in Italy/Greece(Rome or Constantinople preferably.) Then you need to promote cultural acceptance with Greeks. 4. DONT convert, DONT adopt local culture. Raid your wealthy neighbors, marry for traits, maintain as many Varangian veterans as possible. It’s okay to have negative money per month. Raid! 5. Capture the mines. You might be thinking that this is literally a normal Viking strat. Here’s where the difference comes. We’re going to use the new culture system. 6. Once you have enough cultural acceptance with Greeks, form the Greco-Norse culture. Keep all the Byzantine men at arms buffs and keep access to your men at arms. You will have the most powerful men at arms. 7. After you have raided to your hearts content get ready to reform or convert to a religion. If you can, get Hellenism. 8. Now you can reform the Roman Empire, have a cool religion, and have the most powerful military around. Hopefully all is done before the mid game crisis known as the Mongols. I play with a mod that buffs the Mongols.

Great video! I'm still learning the game, I find myself constantly stuck not knowing what to do hehe. Like how do I take back domains, how do I earn prestige if it's really low and not rising. I have watched some of your videos now and they have been super helpful! :D So thanks so much for that. One thing that bothered me a bit in this video, is that the sound of your mic is quite distorted, so we can hear static or like a noise every time you speak (in the background). :)

you have the most calming voice of any youtuber I enjoy watching

Nice video with absolutely amazing stats! What about feadal elections law? You will just chill with inheritance-add to all your titles and choose right heir in your small kingdom without losses!)

i just discovered tall works now lol I played as count Eudes (i'm not a hard start kinda guy) just for fucks, and focused purely on being a peaceful little duke just stacking up Anjou. By the time 1453 rolled threw I had been rocking the most gold and largest army as emperor of france for about 300 years- Favorite part of the play through was Count Eudes Scale Armor of Mercy that got handed down from Eudes all the way to Emperor Savory, surviving the entire play through. Artifacts are dope.

ck3 legend is back! and the memes, missed those haha

Nice to see a video, I’ve been playing as the king of Burgundy with a hybrid culture of Occiatan and cispian

I love the little hello there in the beginning

Decent video. The new traditions are indeed powerful. Just played my first couple games with the new system, both as Norse rulers. One being a tall Iceland build (starting in 1066), mostly because I want the end date achievement and my other campaign started freezing around 1370. constantly, so this time, Iceland only, and I am not spreading my Dynasty. So far I have any been involved in two wars, one being against a peasant faction that took my land from my liege (the King of Norway hasn't been competent since Hardrada), and the second being an independence war.

Your videos are cool enough, plus your editing is godlike

Your culture has two traditions for city holdings btw. Incredible for development.

Amazing edits! Made me laugh a lot.

I just started a Hausan game a few days ago. Funny that you just made a video on them. I'm trying to create a dynasty of possessed kings, spreading Bori across the African continent. Maybe a fun idea for you too for a future video :D

For the sequences where you want to show building construction queues for all the holding like at 36:04 , click the little scroll icon just under your domain size/limit numbers. its a very useful tool.

Been having a lot of fun playing this DLC. This video was absolutely insane, can't believe how cheap some of those buildings were! Makes me really wanna try making a new game where I play tall.

Could have also mentioned the benefits of being above expected court grandeur, the expected level is based off nation size. (let me know if this was mentioned and I just missed it)

Keep up these great videos. Aldo i wish you would not skip soo soon from 1 to 4 counties. What have you done during that time, which tech you developed and why. What did you do with your spouce? Managment or Chilvalry or any other support or just "assist ruler" ? So many questions. Only at 9.15 minutes i see you developed the learning lifestyle very much, almost 100 years ingame have passed then. So, you did only the learning lifestyle, or did you also do some other perks? ps: first try; defeated by neigbourg on th eleft very early ingame. No chance to build up any extra forces. So, how do you beat that?

Playing tall is fun. Taking up the Dutch polder tradition will also help when on flood plains. Of course you go on a Varangian adventure for that.

Love the vid. Just want to report that something is messed up with your mic, there is a weird static noise below/behind your voice everytime you speak. Hopefully it can be fixed for the next vid.

Agrarian is a stupidly generous tradition considering that all the other terrain types (except for oases) are either at ground level or in the negative when it comes to development bonuses. Its increase to man at arms should also apply to their monthly salaries, not just the one-off penalty of hiring cost which is laughably negligible considering one can raise farmlands in floodplains/farmlands. Yes, I'm a bit salty, since the culture I like playing is stationed in mountains and doesn't even start with a tradition negating the mountainous terrain development mallus.

Love the vid thanks! At around 25:00 you had a 65 year old ruler die and passed to a 23 year-old daughter with good stats. Any tips to manage inheritances so well like that? Usually in my games if my ruler is in late 60's the next in line is like mid-40's and I only get about 20 years out of them

the Runescape references in the start were awesome.

Could have put your capital in the duchy with the 2 floodplains to make sure it always stays with you when partition happens.

well done, must've taken ages to edit

You could also increase your grandeur to level 7 to get +0.2 dev growth on your capital.

LOVE IT !!!!!!

Bohemia is the most op tall country in the world. It is because of several things: 1) You get the cultural tradition "industrious" from the get-go, that gives you +25 development every time you finish a building (also replacing counts). You can grind the development and get 100 dev in your capital in max. 100 years. You can get ahead in research and just keep on upgrading your buildings. That way you will have 100 dev. in any province of your main duchy of bohemia within 200 years. On Top you get ahead of time in research, the first time I finished all research like 25 years before next age could spawn. After that I finished all research 100y before the next age could spawn. 2) You have one of the best duchies in game with 7 counties, one mine, capital duchy with 6 holdings, 2 more provinces with 6 holdings and a pretty small de jure kingdom. If you make Moravia part of your de-jure kingdom, you can hold these two duchies or give your heir the duchy of Moravia. It is important to have a small kingdom, because if you hold all titles yourself or give parts of it to your heir, your kingdom is save from factions. If you form Empires, you just need to have a strong main kingdom, give the other kingdoms to whoever you like. You alone will be stronger than all of them together. 3) Because of being ahead of time in research, you will have the best man-at-arms units at any time, will be able to field the biggest amount of all countries, because no country can come close to a player in research. After 200 years you will have 8k man-at-arms with round about 40 knights and like 30-40k levies. The downside is, have less titles for a knights breeding farm, so I was always short of knights and was missing 5-10 knights quite often (to be fair, i quickle added the cultural tradition, where just guys with 12 or more prowess could become knights. Or and yes, this tradition reduces your levies by 25 percent, but I still had 35-40k levies with just bohemia and half of de-jure part of poland. But levies doesn't matter, because your 8k m-a-a and 30-40 knights will shred all armies. To be fair, India could be much stronger, because you get the elephant building in jungles, that give you extra knights, with what it is possible to field 70-100 knights after 100 years, but on a much bigger area.

0:00 “Hello there”

I really love playing as Pegu and then making Pagan yourself but with the objectively superior Ari religion as you get 3 holy sites in your de jure kingdom and high dev. And you can get Jungle Dwellers for 2k prestige which mitigates the fact that CK3 terrain modifiers just suck and there aren’t nearly enough flood plains and farmlands lol
