I truly love the narrative style of this let's play :D
And apparently now the youtube links in section 8. are borked. Must be cooties.
Cootie shot: applied. Thanks for the catch.

Social pressure to update is genuinely appreciated. Thanks to all y'all, especially Ulminati for going the extra mile with the Battle Popery.
A question for you kayerts as I am very curious. Are you actually building something in your territories? Apart from the warrior cult. I couldn't help but notice how much money you have and how much you spend in assassinations
Chapter 10 said:X. THE FALSE EMPEROR
Then the HRE invaded and we lost! GG, bros!
I wonder how HRE is doing.
They won't tolerate a pagan Denmark for long, that's for sure.
o_O
Wait a goddamned minute... What's with Maers morphing hair colour?
If you factor that, a city can repay itself in far less than 60 years... And also keep in mind that income depends on the stewardship of the ruler as well.
Kayerts seeing that you bethored Birger to a capet, why don't you make him your heir & push his son's claim (or if you don't mind kinslayer...)? Surely a pagan France would amuse everyone here
I was considering that, but there were . . . developments.
To Kayerts: Yes, I can understand you wanting to keep a fund for mercenaries. But imo it would be wise to invest something in building some cities, even base levels will do at the start. The cost is rather low for the gold you have now, and it will repay itself. After all, even events that give you gold (like marriages, and others) are as far as I can tell based on your base income. That is because they are usually X times a monthly income. So if your monthly income goes up, so does the amount of gold you get in events (this is of course also true for events that cost you gold...)

Poland in Finland?
also i hate it when the nation name is completely off from the nation it meant to show. (Bjarmia is now Sweden.)
Wait wait wait... The Jarl that is designated your heir wants someone else to take the crown?

Yeah, agreed. Guess we better conquer some more Finns so that we can bump up our font size!

He's a true patriot! Or else is not looking forward to being accused of Gay Cooties for the next 40 years.

So do events that cost gold. For my uber-HRE, forging a claim on Venice has cost me like 5k gold. So, if claim-forging is a primary expansion strategy, bloated income is actually counterproductive. A couple of times I was actually forced to pass a freshly forged claim, for pressing it would plunge me into a financial crisis for half a year in a middle of war. Then I ceased to forge altogether, settling my chancellor in the capital of Ilkhanate to keep the gooks happy instead. Mass-matrimarrying claimants to Yngling black widows does a better job. Some of the more overworked ones had borne Yngling heirs from like 3-4 hungarian or breton husbands in sequence through their lifetime.

A city pays out in 100-250 months, depending on taxes and initial cost (anywhere from 700 to 1000, likely depending on the number of baronies already present in the county).
How uber is it? The highest cost for such claims that I have been offered is ~1k, that's when my income is somewhere near 100/month. At this point I focus all efforts on building universities (research) & grabbing whatever land I can
