Crusader Kings 2: Bohemia campaign - Seventh Crusade, two counties

-

I didn't particular want Arabia and so was considering changing target of the crusade but shockingly, it seems, there was no other valid target! @@

I also tried to see whether there was any member of my dynasty who was a parent of my vassal king/queen. None.

By chance, as I was scrolling through the list of potential beneficiaries, I stumbled upon my half-sister. She didn't have any children. From memory, I was fairly certain that the default succession law of the kingdom won by crusade was primogeniture. So my best guess was that the title would go to me, as her eldest brother, and either my son or my brother would be the next in line. I went ahead to nominate her. Since I was prepared not to get the title for myself, I would be fine if my guess was wrong.

Fortunately, I was correct :)

 

Since my threat level was high, I had to think deeply before attacking anyone within a defensive pact. Default strategy was to join vassal's war and, of course, to attack those not in defensive pacts but preferable pressing a vasal's claim as the increase in threat level would be significantly lower.

Hence, that was what I did: join Serbia's war on Ragua for a county and press a vassal's ducal claim on a Byzantine's county.

But boy, it was eventful: many wars were declared in the meantime and towards the end, my then ruler passed away. I sort of regretted not standing down armies to declare war to claim Kingdom of Valencia for a vassal, as for a very short period of time, sovereign rulers would leave defensive pacts against me. Then again, might not had been a good idea because my armies were quite spent and also potential levies from vassals were reduced because of their low opinion of my new ruler.

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
