I have a query:
In my most successful and one of my most fun games to date, I've built my self a nice Scottish empire that is flourishing. Early in the game, during the reign of my first king, I switched my laws to absolute cognatic primogeniture, which means that my first kid gets everything, regardless of gender. Now, my latest character happens to be an Empress, and even though I have two perfectly fit legitimate children, I'm getting the "No heir to your dynasty! The game will end on your death!" popup. I think the issue is that I apparently neglected to make this marriage matrilineal, likely due to the fact that I'm a stupendous idiot, so the kids are of their father's lesser pleb dynasty. Is there anyway to dig myself out of this hole so my really nice game doesn't die in its infancy? It's worth noting that I'm probably past child bearing age, being pregnant with some last random priest's bastard at 36.

Was afraid of that. Shucks. Thanks, though. I've learned a valuable lesson for my next game.
Hmmmm. Interdasting idea. Might do, but I think I'll probably just delete the save, as I've gotten so blobby I don't even know what to do anymore, and the chief source of entertainment was roleplaying that particular dynasty. Maybe I'll try India for the first time or something.

My liege lord became a dirty dirty Catholic! Even 'offered' to have one of my boys tutored by a fiddl bishop. Luckily I was already striving towards independence for my holdings in Lithuania, so I can keep the whole mess consolidated once I gather meself the kingship.
Edit; nuts. He leaned on me and I had to quit the leadership of the faction. I simply rejoined it, but now the decision isn't mine.
Edit2; there we go! I should be able to use my renown to get some troops, if need be.
3; that was simple. My mother even harrangued five hundred men into becoming zealots for me... just after reaching 100% warscore.
4; my chap snuffed it with only 3% (and a small boatload of money) left before I could 'create' or 'usurp' (oddly, a young boy became king of Lithuania after my former lord died. His only holding was Reval, which belongs to kingdom of Finland. uh. k.) and that chap of mine had three sons. One of whom was overthrown by someone who had been a bit of a pain for that previous character, but now overthrew my brother in order to be my vassal. New chap still finished the subjugation war, so I'm now I have about 10 counties necessary. Now to treble the money I have, and then conquer some more and Gorm Ulfing is your uncle. And lithuania'll be mine.

Crusader Kings is wrong on so many level.
I love it.
I'm tempted to link this game to Jack Thompson.
