Certain structures will influence how rapidly a given technology may increase or spread to a given province, and province development is a really big deal for it as well, but by and large the two things that will be the biggest determinant in technology growth will be your connections to places that have the technologies you want (by trade, proximity, or alliance) and your tech point expenditures (and the fastest way to get tech points is generally sticking your spymaster right outside Constantinople). Regarding the technology system: basically, different parts of the world have different starting levels of different technologies. Like when I declared war to claim the throne of Italy, I assumed that my liege would be backing me up, both my duke and the king of Arles, but nope, I was by myself.Īnyway, long post, but any links to guides, etc., would be appreciated. Stuff like that is really cool, but the mechanics are confusing me. His son is now trying to repair relations with the church. He also tried to claim the throne to Italy, but his 180 troop levy somehow was defeated by the thousands of Italian troops and he was imprisoned, where he died.
Which was successful but ended up in him being labeled a murdered.
eventually moving the wife to house arrest and then freeing her, but continuing to feud with the pope before ultimately hatching a plan to kill the pope. He asked the pope for a divorce, which was denied, so imprisoned both of them. I'm currently playing as a count in Arles and have had some fun just playing according to character traits (so far I'm on the third generation and everyone has been falconers my second guy found out his wife cheated on him with an advisor and had his child. like I get the basics, but the value of say building a spy network vs stealing technology eludes me.Īnd I get how the different inheritance laws work, but trying to figure out how to arrange marriages to secure claims I have a hard time with.
In particular, I don't understand technology, the council kind of confuses me. I've done four complete plays of that game now (England, Mongolia, Syria, and Cyprus - which was my favorite, went from a tiny country to mercantile powerhouse spread across the globe).ĬK 2 seems like you could eventually get that same kind of huge playtime once you figure out the systems, but I've tried before and it just seems more opaque than even EU III. I think I had that game for years, and had purchased it twice, before finally finding a really well written guide online and spending a lot of time to learn the basics.
I haven't quite thrown in the towel yet because I had this same problem with Europa Universalis III. Fired up CK 2 again recently, for probably my third serious try and maybe the twentieth or so attempt at all.Īre there any good guides out there than kind of walk you through everything, preferably in print online and not video format?
