Also I've gotten religious unity malus because of raiders looting temples at the edge of the empire, which I hardly notice when are around.Īdditionally, after all this time, I've only managed to convert a single province to hellenism. This has been an issue with trying to reach 50 % religious unity, because Alexandria is far away. I've been trying to favour invite claimants, but haven't had any luck with that so far. Unfourtunatelty, Hellenism doesn't get holy war casus belli, so I can only take one province at a time through war. That was a bit unexpected, because I simply used the "take an entire de jure duchy" casus belli, but apparantly that makes the holders in that duchy your vassal if possible, and it was, since I was an emperor and he only a king. Polykarpos the Traitor was just a count the first 30 years of his adult life, so it's not as janky as it seemsĪnyway I did end up reloading and changing a bit:īeing forced to abdicate and then rewin the throne is now my new favourite thing lolĪnyway you can see I got the huge country of Serbia that used to be north of me. (I've gotten about all of Anatolia since this screenshot was taken) However, more important than any of that is that the duke of Abkazia identifies as a horse I've wanted to try and get it, but I've not prioritised it and have focused on warring and installing family members to titles instead.Īlso made a stupid custom family seal because I only started with a generic one (unlike for example the zunbils who get a unique one) I've found some guy in the realm has it, related to one of the previous emperors. I'm conflicted on whether to try and restore a savegame, or kill my wife, get a hellenic one, and use that to convert to hellenism.Īlso I've never had the imperial diadem. I sort of ragequitted then (again not seriously, I had played for several hours and felt like taking a break anyway). Now was the problem: even though a lot of people had converted to hellenic, not everyone had. I had managed to get the Traitor to be elected heir, but he suffered the same problems and also died of slowpox soon after (he also ended up getting morbidly obese (in general I've had a lot of fat characters this game, but only like a couple in the zun game)). The prompt said I couldn't do it while doing special activities, which I mean I wasn't doing, but I ended up dying shortly after that. However then, there was a slowpox epidemic and I didn't get to shut the gates. I then decided to give in to that, because that just makes me play as my heir. ![]() I got a long way, but in the end there was a massive "overthrow ruler" revolt. I then started to reconquer a lot of land (the previous emperors had even managed to lose Constaninopel) and revoked territories where I could, and placed relatives there to ensure that no matter who got elected it would probably be someone in my dynasty. At the same time, the Abbasids collapsed due to decadense. I didn't waste time and got the emperor assassinated and inhereted the empire. ![]() With that I guess I got a lot of popularity, and with only a few bribes I became the leading choice to inherit the empire. When I noticed the emperor had secretly converted to hellenic, I decided to openly adopt the religion. ![]() ![]() In the end the only part of that that mattered was getting to become a direct vassal of the emperor though (at one point I was the vassal of a duchess that was a vassal to the king of Trebizond, so many steps away from the emperor). The emperor had then essensially no other choice but to grant it to me as a viceroyality, but I lost it when more de jure territory was conquered) (also that's why he got known as "the traitor") and got my wife to be duchess of Achea. But with the fifth guy I got stuff running with a bunch of merceneries I was able to declere independence from the duke of Hellas (in 769 Byzantium controls only one county in the duchy of Hellas. But from the third generation on I had the hellene secret society running, and it got almost 100 members in the end. I had schemes to inherit a couple of counties but those went nowhere. So for like 4 generations I had no progress.
