    so i started a new campaign and by sheer luck i am still in it and have even flourished. even though my characters so far has been severely maimed or killed in battle at a rather young age.

    thought perhaps i should try writing an after action report this time.
    my goal is to rule all of the isles and focus mainly on that. this time i will not be derailed by oportune invasions of land far away.

    one question though. i wonder if i hold all the lands of Wales, will my liege be able to create the kingdom of Wales for him self?

    now only 1135 and already on 5th generation of my dynasy, of all Penda I reached the high age of 48...
    was hoping to claim England with the hunchbacked Offa II, but he lasted the shortest.
    so far i has barely been able to educate my heir my self, giving them good traits like just, charitable, kind, brave and gregarious. but last generation ran out of parrents way early and does not seem to turn out to well. also it seem that my family has turned truly religious as there are several mastermind theologians.
    for some reason duke Gerald of Normandy still holds counties of Glouchester and Vexin, though king Ælle the Accursed waged war to revoke them. also the successfull crusade for Jerusalem seem to have been undone. either a bug or i loaded an early save-game...

    updated again.
    at this point i have made my dude king of England by way of a golden opportunity. it seems that someone had been cleaning the board and prepping for kingship, probably the prince that held Kildare. even though the war failed i ended up regent for the underaged king. at which point my character gained the decietful trait for a while, so i thought it "this is supposed to be...".

    i also have most of Ireland, though reluctant to create the kingly title without being emperor.
    i wonder of a second kingly title will start on the same authority level and succession as the main one?

    also i notice there is a bunch of Saxon lowborns and few nobles. i have been marrying them of to various bastards of any culture, just to maintain a pool of Saxon nobility.
    am i supposed to switch to English culture, is that why Saxons are lowborn?

    said and done!

    i am now at the point where i can create Empire of britain.
    though i considering wether or not to release some lands before claiming imperial title.
    Sicilly is far away and can be handed to a new king, Galicia is a bit mor coplex as an English duke has one vassal there. also Sweden/Finland is a bit far, though i am not sure my daughter is strong enough to hold her own should there be rebelions. also she is married to the guy which would be made king of galicia and i am not sure how it would turn out with their heir and succession. depending on low crown law authority and my status as Emperor, i am not sure wether i would re-gain land released or loose bits of what i kept...

    the current character seems more than able to keep it all together, but there is no telling how the new heir will fare. i shiver on the thought of how it went down hill, fast, for my previous character...

    new "chapter" added with the new Emperor.
    i did intend this one to cool things down a bit and spend money on building infrastructure, rather than war. when the current character came to power it was in the midst of war and the empire ran at -200 gold. i then realized i had not been keeping up with progress as to economic structures, my 12k retinue almost bled my dry when reinforcing.
    yet marriage alliances has dragged him into numerous wars, in between pressing som minor claims on his own. then there were the fatal campaign against the Cumans, where i got it handed to me by the Horde.
    it is not like i did not realize they had the manpower. when i initially attacked their stack i had the upper hand, but the battle draged out so long they had time to just pile stack upon stack into that county.
    now i am severely weakened and the opposition at home getting rather frisky. looks like i will have to spend my cash squashing a major rebelion, again. it is hard to be der Kaiser...

    on top of it all my character has been branded a craven, why is that?
    just because he is the first in his line not to be seriously maimed before age 20?!
    i can accept all that has happened so far, but that craven trait was simply unfair and unwarranted...

    edit:
    wow, my family has the tradition of being maimed if not out-right killed in battle. but my current heir was maimed before he even came of age...
    also he is Norwegian and have the chance to form Scandinavian Empire, there is just 5% of territory left to conquer and i have de jure claim on Herjedalen.
    a dual Empire that would be cool, though pretty pointless i suppose.

    so finally my old Emperor keeled over at age 84, not bad considering most of my characters has died in their mid 40s. perhaps it was that craven trait that kept him alive in battles.
    as all my rulers i spent him in war, but he simply would not die. except a cool name he did not have much going for him at the start, but through fighting endless rebelions he gained massive prestiege.

    it is now 1296 and my new characer is Norwegian, like most no-one in his realm. i can see in the future a lot of troubles for him as well...

    it is now 1326 and after the long reign of Keiser Pybba i am back to having my characters maimed and killed in battle, with the subsequent child emperor...
    my realm has not increased much due to the endless wars for independence, though i am chewing away on Scandinavia in an effort to gain a second imperial title. with 53 of 80% land held and the Golden Horde encoacking on Kola this might prove hard to achive in the 100+ years that is left. started to fabricate claims on parts of Denmark from Poland and France, but will still need big parts of Norway where i only have de jure claim on Herjedalen.

    updated now with composite map of Empire Britannia, just as another civil war is about to break out.
    the supposed new diplomatic opption to give vassals independence will surely help the kind of situation i have been in for the last 100 years or so. it is simply not viable to maintain such a scattered realm while also waging wars for conquest. if i sit still and quiet as a mouse i can barely keep vassals in check, but the slightest strain will have them claim independence.
    i have had no problem winning these endless civil wars, but it is getting tiresome and there is yet over 100 years left.

    when this campaign is concluded i might try some different experience, preferably focus on obscure or heretic religion.

    1. the count of Suenik.
    he is incapable and will have to join a greater realm not to be crushed in Byzantine-Seljuk conflict. i have tried joining Georgia and survived, but it is quite boring waiting for an opportunity to do anything.
    the most interesting option here is to spread the Miaphysite faith and make it dominant.

    2. the duke of Songhay.
    have tried this and was somewhat interesting with pagans close by and the muslim conquest CB. though it was harder to turn my dynasty Shia as it would give more CB options towards the neighbouring Sunni rulers. joining the Fatimids changed my titles to Arabic style and it lost much of the uniqueness. was hoping to eventually gain the Caliphate, but not sure if that is even possible.

    3. any of the 2 caliphs.
    i tried the Fatimid Caliph and within the first generation were close to forming Empire Arabia, to easy unless i was insanely lucky this time around. i did like how the open inheritance made me able to jump generations by propping up a grandson with plenty titles, it is possible to skip that idiot son and go for his genius ofspring.

    4. the duke of Axum.
    interesting as this is the Miaphysite heartland, but is bound to get swallowed up by the Fatimids. as i know what is likely to happen this is not the most interesting location.

    5. any Zoroastrian character, if there is one...

    other (obscure) suggestions are welcome.

    an new chapter updated with some screenshots and
    a map of the exstended empire

    my Empire Britannia outlined.
    i have slowly encroached on France, Denmark and Norway and is close to forming Empire Scandinavia. most of the time i am defending agains some sort of civil war, usually for independence. plenty emperors has come to power while underaged and supressed at least one revolt by age 16. their prestiege is through the roof and many has been called the great. though the repitition of raising the levies from all over and beating down the opposition is becoming a bit tedious and i am glad it is now 1376.
    i have pressed plenty vassal claims in France and Scotland, much of Africa was included by a heir apparent that did not even love to inherit the imperial crown, infact he was maimed before he came of age... was a good king of Africa, though he turned my dynastic line Norwegian rather than Saxon.
    i have no clue where novgorod came from, or that little region down by Poland.
    the tiny left-overs of Norway and Denmark still wage war on each other and i am waiting for it to conclude so i can ursurp the titles and de jure press my way to Empire Scandinavia.

    now it is 20 years on(1396) and i lost yet another Emperor on the field of battle...
    with this turnover rate i can easily burn through 4-5 generations in the years that is left of the campaign.

    what is keeping me back is still the useless wars for independence. were it not for those endless camapigns i could easily have taken on some of the other major powers, like HRE and ERE. but as ity seems i am left to defend against traitors, while waging some holy wars against the Horde. Golden Horde has grown rotten and ripe with civil wars and there are no doomstacks to be seen. my vassal the duke of Courland has grown big and powerfull by chewing away on Horde splinter groups.
    to counter his powerbase i invaded Bjarmia and is about to take on Beloozero. he might in fact be much responsible for Catholic moral authority gone back up to 100% after one of my characters kicked the papacy in the groin, replaced 2 popes and by that probably facilitated the loss of Rome to ERE. that era left me with a heretic problem that almost inflicted all my private demesne, which made the pope interfere, which in turn made me kick the pope...! the overextended size of my empire nad the endless independence wars made it impossible to turn heretic and keep it all together, so i opted to stay catholic.
    the idiots my previous character installed in Bjarmia has turned out to be a bunch of idiots that joinded war for independence, before they could even raise any army in their fiefs... so now they are locked away and their infant heirs lingering about.
    my previous emperor managed to completely exterminate opposition for a while, the independence faction had one dude and power of 0.7%. then he died in a small scale invasion of northern Norway. if my current character manages to achieve the same level of stability i might try to conquer all of Rus.
    obviously i stoped being a mercifull ruler and now keep rebels in jail for life, unless they are of my kin and is lacking a heir.
    the realm has not changed much since last map-shot. mainly it has added duchies of Tver, Bjarmia and some areas in Lithuania, in addition to remnants of Norway and Denmark.
