We'll be zooming in from the world view a bit, to central Europe: At the start of the game, the player can choose who they want to play as - you can choose from a plethora of major historical characters, as well as minor, insignificant characters from regions so small there's not even historical records of who actually ruled there in reality. So this is the political view of the playable world map at the start of the game. We're gonna see 1) where we are, 2) who we are, and 3) what our goal is! Note: you can skip the setup and go directly to the story, you don't need to know all the things Ok, so let's get started! The setup may be a lot of info to take in - but I've simplified it with some pictures Note: You don't have to be familiar with Crusader Kings 2 to enjoy this eventual quasi-historical trainwreck The game starts in a historical setting, with real, historical rulers, and then spirals into whatever randomness happens from there. I wont be min-maxing, and the way I make decisions is something between roleplaying and just what I feel are the right decisions at the time. I consider each character I play has a general personality that I try to emulate & take into consideration when making decisions.

I'm not using any mods or cheats, only official DLC. Gameplay notes: I'm playing Ironman mode, meaning there's no way to load if you mess up, it's all one continuous save that autosaves all the time.

A few days ago, Crusader Kings 2 got an update and some new DLC, so I decided to pick it up again! For me, part of what makes CK2 so much fun are not just the wars, but also the the court intrigue - having to appease the Church, your vassals and your liege, joining secret societies, fending off viking raiders and most of all, making sure your family members don't kill each other.
