Any advice?

I want to watch some medieval film or television while playing CK 2.

Are The Bastard Executioner or The Last Kingdom any good?

Both are recent television series I don't know much about, but judging from trailer footage Last Kingdom seems to have horribly miscast their lead

I want to play my first /gsg/ game. The guide recommends EUIV but it seems to be universally derided by a cursory examination of the previous threads. What would you recommend?

>>123475907
EU4, it's the flagship and easiest paradox game

>>123475907
Victoria 2 was my first game I would recommend it for people getting into the genre.

>>123475834
I just wish this would happen more often.

A later start date would fix all the railroad problems with the aragonese inheritance and netherlands stuff, while also balancing france by making them be contained by spain which is never strong enough to repel them in the 1444 start

>>123476638
it was already destroyed 5 years ago

>>123475907
EU4's fine, especially for a first game. There's plenty of valid criticism but hating on it is just one of those things.

Hey guys, I'm doing a Florence playthrough right now for the first time and It's proving to be pretty fun so far!

I just took siena and lucca in two back to back wars, plus Austria sent me an unlawful territory demand so I'm shaking in my BDU's. Gonna lay low and manage my aggressive expansion. My question is, where should I expand next?

And are heavy ships worth it or should I stick with smaller ones? Never played an italy game before.

Im assuming that you're going to have your navy in the Mediterranean, just go galleys.
Galleys are almost as good as heavy ships in inland seas and are much cheaper. If you ever decide to head to bigger oceans, heavy ships are a necessity against naval powers.

Yes sir primarily the Mediterranean. They're mostly for blockading ports while I feast on scrub nations. Thank you for the advice

>>123477147
Gang up on whoever's in a rough diplomatic spot, like a Milan that's rivaled by Savoy. Italy's usually balanced somewhat precariously.

Galleys are fine until you're competing with someone like England or Spain.

Just as a general HRE tip, keeping high (150+) relations with the emperor keeps him from sending unlawful territory hits.

Should I buy EUIV? I played the hell out of EUIII but I have heard mixed things on IV

Anons please help. This is my first game of CK2 and I have been playing over the course of a month. I hold the tiles Emperor of Britannia and Emperor of France. I did know realize because of my laws France would inherit to my other son as an independent empire once I die. I want to destroy the title but cant because I am gravelkind and don't want to fuck with my succession laws unless its primogeniture. Is there a way to destroy it with console or something?

I don't think you understand how the assimilation works, lad. Pops assimilate into your primarly culture, so all your pops will BECOME gypsies if you boost the assimilation rate.

>>123477921
Pirate it with all the dlcs.
Then buy parts of it if you like it.

>>123478967
There's lots of bullshit like faces, music and shields that you don't need or can pirate, even with a purchased copy of the game.

CK2 wise all the big DLC (Sons of Abraham, Old Gods etc) is good, although I have not played Horselords.
Another exception is Sunset Invasion, it's not historical, rather silly and not too fun since at some point Aztec ships come and invade your Europe.

I don't know how much money you want to spend, so maybe it would be wise to purchase one game with DLC and the other one later on, maybe around Christmas, instead of buying two more or less crippled games without DLC

>>123479259
The beta testers have all been selected bow, but thd beta copies still won't be sent out for another week or two yet, and even then we don't know if anyone will man up and leak it.

I'm playing Distant Worlds Universe and the game is more like an interface into a database instead of a game. It looks and feels more like "a software" than "a game".

I installed GEM and Extended Universe, got rid of spaceship symbols (the borders).

But is there anything definitive in regards of graphics? How can I increase the font size (I'm not increasing my font dpi in windows)?

It's no different than forming it as Prussia. However, if you still own non-core territory when you're able to form Germany, you'll get a decision to either: 1) form Germany while keeping all of your territory while gaining 40 infamy and a lot of militancy, 2) release your non-core territories as puppets and form Germany or 3) don't form Germany but take a significant hit to your prestige.

you won't get any protection. Albania starts with an amazing king/general ally ragusa or bosnia and annex serbia. After that venice will declare on you and hide in the mountains with 'attach to this unit' and you should be able to beat up the small stacks venice sends over and when you have enough warscore take istria.
