I've got an idea, how about we, at some point; do some kind of CKII based RP? Just an idea in its infancy. Doesn't have to be a total RP, just a multiplayer game; maybe all start out as dukes or counts or something like that.

There have been a few attempts to do something similar in a GoTverse. But the issue is that the idea isn't very popular with the lot of people who participate in a lot of P2TM business. A multiplayer game wouldn't be the worst idea though.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

I definitely would be interested in a multiplayer game with others here.
Though a CK2 based RP? I suppose a general medieval rp, in which everybody RPs a dynasty and not an actual state, could be interesting, but I don't think it should fully be based on CK2 in terms of Gameplay, or stuff.

Also, simply playing a CK II multiplayer match is the most viable and arguably fun way to do it.

Agreed. The only issue is organising one, as myself and Jon-States found out while trying to organise one with just us two.

It can't be that hard. I can play for about 5 hours today and then I'll be gone for three weeks, so let's make the most of this. CKII match starts at noon CST.

Let's get this thing started.

The two games I have going right now are from the Old Gods start. Going to post the maps now.

Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire (959)

Shahdom of Persia (913)

Probably going to start one as an African, a Slavic, and a Norse soon.

As Byzantium you have to take the Bulgarians down a notch - there may be only one true Emperor of the East.
As Persia..... nice work. Muslim or Zoroastrian?

I'm currently fabricating a claim on the largest duchy they have South of the Danube. I don't want to take the time to get their counties one-by-one to get the de jure. The revolt they have going is destroying their army, they're down to 1900+ from their usual 4500.

Muslim Persia, thought it would be safer with the Abbassids so close. I beat Pratihara (the big Indian Kingdom that's sort of fracturing) in a Holy War they declared on me, which destroyed their army, which is probably why they are imploding. I just put my son-in-law on the throne of Khiva, and now they have a revolt, which will probably also work to my favor, since I will need that land to create the Persian Empire. After that, not sure if I want to risk trying to expand into Abbassid territory; they just gave the Byzantines one hell of a walloping (they conquered the duchy of Mesopotamia in a holy war), and they conquered Egypt because Egypt was Shia. Also, the Abbassids are useful allies right now (my brother-in-law is the Caliph's brother, and my son is his future son-in-law), so keeping them around may be necessary, at least until the Mongols come through and have been beaten.

EDIT: Also, with regards to Byzantium, I have been hesitant to attack Bulgaria because I've enjoyed their support when the Abbassids have historically tried to invade me (which has been three times now); however, my alliance with the HRE has rendered them largely obsolete in that regard.

In my old EUIII Castile. game, I helped them against France, hoping to end up able to vassalize or personal-union them, but they ended up becoming equally powerful, if not more powerful than me.
