I have a nice wife, a nice fief too, a castle on a hill with a magnificent view. I have fertile lands, and villages that thrive, hundreds of troops who somehow stay alive. My coffers are heavy, my warband is fed, my enemies see my banner and occasionally drop dead. I have horses and armor, silver and grain, a hall full of nobles complaining again. By every measure, I’ve won at this game. I’ve conquered, grown wealthy, and built up my name. Yet I stand on my battlements when the campaigning is done, watching the mountains fade with the sun. My wife is beside me. My kingdom is strong. My vaults overflow. But something feels wrong. I’ve everything a lord could possibly acquire… Maybe what’s missing another fief to desire. submitted by /u/t-o-m-u-s-a [link] [comments]
Greetings, Lords!
I have been playing 1257 for some while now (I've played this save on/off for years). By now I have helped Curonians pretty much destroy the Teutonic order of Livonia, Samagotians and some other minor factions.
I hold the 2 major cities, 2 castles and bunch of fiefs (everything upgraded and not raided in years), I've got more renown than any other in my faction, high honor, friendly with everyone (~80%+) and 500 000 gold in my pocket. Army of about 2k elite men, hundreds of elite cavalry.
SO! I want to take over! :D As I understand, even in AD 1257 you can't become king of an existing faction? I tried starting civil war, but pretty much everyone jumped to my throat. I can hold of 1:40 in a castle defense, but I can't hold against ~30k soldiers. So can't I marry a daughter of a king or smthn? Or just have other lords pick me as their king?
What would be my best option, if there is one?
Thank you, oh honored guests. Eat, drink and tomorrow - we ride into battle! I hope...
