My crowning moment of glory (and the funniest by far) in CK2 - playing as the Duke of Austria, under the Holy Roman Empire, played it safe and quiet, just sucking up to the Kaiser and marrying off children (I really do wish there was better birth control than assassinating your wife in this) to families of power within the Empire, til I became heir to the HRE (follows an Elective succession where Dukes vote for who they want to be the next Emperor).
And then out of nowhere, a strong coalition tried to force the Emperor to change the succession law to Primogeniture (oldest male inherits all, basically the best law in-game for the Emperor but definitely not advantageous to vassals) and then it got even weirder, when the Emperor decided he would prefer these traitorous Dukes to rule over his own children and waged war... on the same traitorous dukes.
So I just happily passed the time on fast-forward til the Emperor inevitably bit the dust, making me the strongest man in Europe (from being the weakest vassal) and surrendered the next day to the rebels, thus guaranteeing my dynasty will be uncontested heirs to the fucking HRE.
Conquered Hungary and France, but then these fuckers rebelled when I had a weak heir and I had to grant independence to half the empire, but that is irrelevant.
always had good Milan squads which change my opinion of the game. I remember seeing Abate rated 75 or so on fifa 11 and I 110% believed that he was going to hit 85 after beasting so well.
