He is old, so you can just wait up.įor the sake of simplicity, the rest of the guide will be made as if ua Brian was chosen to play. His dad has to die first though, by natural means, or your scheming. But he has two things other counts hasn’t at that is county of Dublin which is both duchy and kingdom de jure capital (it gives nice modifier to troops) and is an heir for county of Leinster, which makes him triple count. Murchad ua Cheinnselaig, count of Dublin – his start is a little bit trickier than the last two since he is a count and has no de jure claims.West Connacht has a double battle modifer giving your troops advantage and giving enemies disadvantage at the same time (attacking from here gives our troops disadvantage though). Aed ua Conchobair, duke of Connacht – an old guy with realm of two is weaker than Murchad, but still relevant since he is duke, but he lacks the bloodline and lands.That bloodline can be passed to his descendants which give ua Brians an advantage over other Irish rulers. Murchad ua Brian, duke of Munster – he is a duke with a single county, two vassals, a De jure claim on a nerby county, male heir and, what’s most important, a historical bloodline.That gives you early advantage since you can easly gain more lands and be the most powerful person in the land. Most rulers are count-tier which means they have up to 3 counties which is low. Chapter 1: Starting Upįor begginers, Ireland with a starting date of 1066 is a good choice for couple of reasons. That should be enough to get you starting. But if you are king and press a claim on duchy for your vassal duke, then duke will have two duchies and you still are his liege. The title you are pressing claim on must be lower than yours.įor example, if ou are a duke and you press claim on a duchy for someone else, that person will be independant.Claimant must already have land in your land (barony will suffice).Winning the war not always result in land coming to your realm! If you are not claimant there are two conditions that must be met to get a land through Claim war: Pressing a claim means wage a war in a name of person having the claim agains person holding the title. Legal is in quotation marks since they can be fabricated (important!). Winning De jure war always results in realm coming to your realm (but if you are the king it’s not always for you, I will describe it later).Ĭlaim is “legal” right for the land.

If you have duchy title, but not all of it’s de jure lands belong in your realm, you can wage war against outside holders. Every duchy consists of counties, every kingdom is made of duchies and so on. You can wage war against someone who has lands you or one of your courtiers have claim on and few other reasons, but for the sake of this guide we will need just Claim and De jure.ĭe jure means “by law”. Chapter 2: Conquest and Creating the Kingdomīefore we start let’s clear something out that can be confusing for new players:Ĭassus Beli is a reason for war.Range of power: duchy which usually contains few provinces. Besides that he has the same possibilities as a count.Īttention! For making it easier, most of lords from the Level II are called counts and their lands counties in this guide. It's not worth to make a marriage with the Lord mayor, because his position is elective. His children aren't taken into account during succession. Unplayable, managing the province with the bishopric as a dominating structure. Metropolitan, high priest, seid, sheikh, ayatollah More details in Basics: Choice of person, region and time: Count.
