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]
First of all, my idea of assigning fiefs to my vassals is to assign a certain town or castle to a lord and the surrounding villages around it, all to a single vassal. This idea helps boost your relation to the certain lord that you have assigned a fief to. However, it deteriorates your relation to the other lords, especially when they are circumstantial and dishonorable.
Second, assigning fiefs can be the core which decides your relations towards your vassals. It is inevitable that as a ruler, there will be more vassals that will hate you than the vassals that will like you. Most of the time, I just let them stay hateful towards me. I do not indict anyone for treason as in the first time that I did, everyone hated me. Never in any of my game have I seen any of my vassals rebel so I am curious of what will happen if they did.
- How do you assign fiefs to your vassals? Do you depend on the their support to whom should receive the certain fief? Do you depend on the renown of your vassals?
- How do you treat the vassals that have bad relations towards you? Do you indict them for treason? What happens when your relations towards them became too severe?
I am not really asking for tips. I am just interested on seeing how other players perceive and idealize their game.
