Just spend some (worthwhile) cash and get the game + the Deus Vult expansion.
You'd like this game. This is a scenario I had as Enguerrand de Normandie, king of England:
1. I made my wife the count of Tejo (Portugal...Yes I conquered that from the heathens)
2. she claimed the throne every 3 years or so. Making me very annoyed and upsetting the balance of my realm
3. I sent an assassin after her. Friggin annoying biznitch should die.
4. Apparently, after pushing the fat ho out of the window, the assassin waved to the crowd and said: Greetings from Enguerrand
5. My three sons hated me. I am a kinslayer. The Pope ex-communicated me. I became stressed. There's realm duress.
6. My three sons rebelled. The great English realm that spans from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Normandy, Spain and Portugal is now in bad shape
7. I roused an army of 30K to fight my son
8. Half of them ran away before I even met my son in battle
9. I ran away, too.
10. My son occupies the capital. He still has to sail to Spain to challenge me at Cordoba.
11. I became sick
12. And schizophrenic
13. And caught pneumonia
14. I tried to fight my son. He has twice my martial value. I got beat. And badly wounded.
15. I became insane.
16. My stats are abysmal. I decided to die. Or at least I hope to die.
17. Doesn't happen for a few months. France declared war and invaded me at Normandy.
18. I died. YAYAYYAYAYAYAYYYYY!!
19. Robert de Normandie became king of England.
20. Realm duress disappears after Richard de Normandie, the second brother, capitulates. Robert carried the war to France, defeats Britanny and France. England is now stable.
Just a snippet of Crusader Kings. John will confirm that all the above is REAL and TOTALLY POSSIBLE.

You guys make this game sound hard as hell. I want to get it, but I have to ask, what are my goals? Is it possible to not have a mind-cluster breakdown after going Hamlet on my own family?
I'm getting both CK and DV. Are you saying there is no mod for DV to play as Muslims or Pagans?
Hmm. So what's the call then? Play CK DV Vanilla, or skip DV and apply a nice mod? I don't know what DV adds.
Actually, playing as a European monarch is pretty refreshing for me.
Oh btw, have as many bastards as possible. Bastards sometimes have the best stats.
Lawrence, does playing Muslim allow multiple wives? It should~~how about the laws of inheritance?
A few hints:You guys make this game sound hard as hell.
1. FEUDAL CONTRACT
2. Get wives from far flung places (and sleep with all the women you can)
3. Assassinate inbred members in your court to increase rep (just don't get caught)
4. Let the Heathens conquer...and then conquer them so you won't have to give up land.
5. Use your prestige to claim lands you can keep.
6. Always try to make sure your demesne has the best provinces...

I totally understand.It's like being a Muslim faction in M2TW.
I shall not install the MOD but instead continue making Europe French.
On a side note, Louis Capet, a king of France since the age of 9, has just turned 64 yesterday. For his birthday present:
1. a dead wife
2. a new wife (3rd) (age 18, from Denmark...slobbers...)
3. Constantinople
4. and one of his marshals getting completely thrashed against a heathen with 27 total martial score.
5. oh and he's taking up arms himself. I cannot let this 27 martial guy threaten my interests in the Levant.

Dude, you don't have enough claims. For a kingdom your size you should have so many claims that it becomes a stack of stuff that's impossible to interpret.

Well...No good having a huge empire if I have to deal with everyone rebelling.
FEUDAL CONTRACT
For shizzle. And paying them pots of money every now and then. The occasional rebellion I have (which I have nearly every year) is laughable.

Dude, Lawrence, you are ridiculously good. How do you earn that much? I seem to be pretty weak in this game. Any good guides? I especially need to know how the hell to start as a vassalized Duchy. I want to break free from the German Empire and then eventually overcome it. I have the flaw of always being attracted to the hardest situations...
