[QUOTE="cbwjm, post: 8101769, member: 6788732"] Nice, I really like the stories that result from playing the CK games. One time I started as Iceland and slowly took over territory, Iceland was easy enough but when I went to take over the isles below, they'd already been claimed by someone much stronger than me. I bided my time and decided that, since I started as a countess, I'd create a new version of Christianity that was matrilineal (apparently not a word according to my dictionary) and lead the warrior women of Iceland to victory. I don't know what happened after this but I guess a lot of people weren't happy because my children started dropping like flies, murders everywhere, Oprah Winfrey was there handing out murder to everyone. Briefly I held the kingdom of Ireland but before I could get it converted I was overthrown and had my titles stripped from me, no great comeback in that game. Side note. In games where I started as the King of Alba, I'd marry the same countess, problem being that since she was ruling in iceland I didn't really get much in the way of children. One time it was like I was getting a lot of children but quickly discovered that in fact, they were not mine. Had to resort to murder because the pope liked her more than me so wouldn't grant a divorce even with the adulterer penalty! [/QUOTE]
