Crusader Kings 2: Poland again, Pagan, Hungary

-

So, once again, I noticed the Polish King's heir was a child and I had a couple of kinswomen who had weak claim on the kingdom. Plotted to kill and succeeded but I was shocked I couldn't declare war for them! Turned out the succession law there was Agnatic Elective and so no woman could hold title there. Grrrr.

Nevertheless, I didn't want to waste an opportunity to grab some Polish land and so declared war on a duchy. Later, I 'joined' a vassal's war on the Empress of Mali, since I noticed he was about to be beaten to a pulp.

In the midst of these wars, suddenly a number of my kings had embraced African Paganism! Grrrr. Revocation ensued, on both sides!

Meanwhile, my attempt at inviting cultists to my gardern for a private conversation and murdering them generated lots of failure.

When I had spare holdings, I tried looking to land claimants of realms that I was interested in, before transferring thems to their respective de jure liege. I gave a county I won in a holy war to this Hungarian claimant  but later his title was revoked by his Egyptian duchess @@. Probably because she wanted all the counties within that duchy? He went back to Hungary.

Later, due to revocation of titles of infidels, I had some spare holdings again. I invited him back to court and granted him a barony and then transferred him to my Prince-Mayor of Maghreb.

He had a strong claim on Kingdom of Hungary but I had to take some time off to deal with a spate of my king vassals who suddenly turned African Pagan! I went on a revocation spree and then granted the titles to Catholic vassals, after checking some information. However, I didn't expect that some of them switched to Orthodoxy before I could revoke all their titles. Hence, the -135 opinon penalty (i.e. occured for 9 revocations) with all vassals. Eeeek.

After that was more or less settled, I plotted to kill the then King of Hungary. This war was right after his death.

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I ...

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba...

Sudden lower body pain

-
About two weeks ago, my mum developed pain in her pelvic bone, much more on the right side, and squeezing pain in her legs, with occassional spike in pain. She was managing it with paracetamols, 2 tabs three times daily.  Since we didn't know any particular orthopedist in private hospitals (it was only recently that I remember Dr Prashant ), I targeted one at KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital since it's in mainland Penang (instead of on the island). I made appointment for my mum with Dr Joehaimey since he has the earliest suitable date. The moment she walked through his door, he immediately asked her whether the pain from her right side. We were both quite impressed. He was in turn impressed with mum's prepared list of medication that she presented to him on a piece of paper. The key information seems to be the surgery she had back in 2011 to insert titanium plate and screws in her lower spine. He guessed that there's accumalated wear and tear due to aging. So to confirm i...
